the triumphant career of Camille Clifford, known

and six years ago came to Boston and obtained
employment as a domestic in the home of Mrs.

Ottersen became a seamstress in a Boylston

possibilities, and engaged her for The Prince of

SULTAN OF MOROCCO
To RECEIVE REMINDER

London, Sept. ia dispatch from
Taneigr to The Times says:
"There is a tendency to underesti-
mate the Importance of the American
to Fee. Minister Gummere
will not only present his credentials
but also will lay before the sultan his
governments views of the existing
state Of anarchy in Morocco and de-
mand the payment of American claims
and punishment for offenses against
American subjects. The Mayhem also
will doubtless be reminded of the sui
tan's pretense to speedily punish Raj
suli for the seizoure and detention Of
Mr.. Perdicaris."
The dispatch says the position Of
America renders her action in these
matters easier than in the case of Eu-
ropean powers, the hands of whose rep
are tied by the political
in Europe. Americas rela-
ton with Morocco outside the Algeri-
cas- protocol are clearly defined by
treaty and the sultan's intrigues with
other powers will certainly not be &C
cepted as an excuse for the infringe
ment of these treaty rights.
Only by firm action can the sultan
be made to realize his real position
and responsibility.
'If," the dispatch adds, "the Amer
lean minister succeeds in bringing
about this he will deserve the thanks
of all who are at present suffering
from the incapacity and arrogance Of
the existing regime at Fez.''
