Moors were advancing on the French
camp near Casa Blanca yesterday
under cover of a fog. the fog lifted

New York, August 22.-Jacob H.
Schiff, the banker, who is at Bar Har-
Dor. Maine. Is quoted in published
interview on the financial and busi-
ness outlook as saying:
ITO blame the federal administra-
ton for the difficulties in which we
find ourselves in both thoughtless and
unjust. Even II the excesses which
the great prosperity of recent years
has had in its wake, had been permit
ted to continue unchecked. before
long the situation would have de-
veloped probably far more difficult
and serious than the crisis through
which we are now passing.
Result of Development
"In the first instance, It is the
result of the tremendous railroad, in
dustrial and commercial development
Of the last ten years, which has
brought about a capital requirement
largely in excess of the ability of the
country to supply. Europe, findini
Itself in similar position, has been
unable to extend us any credit or to
place at our disposal surplus funds,

that the Russian-Japanese war and
San Francisco earthquake have de-
stroyed an enormous amount OF
wealth, which sooner or later, had to
make itself felt. nor has the fact that
| both Japan and China have now en-
tered into competition for the sur
plus wealth OF the world, been given
sufficient attention. No other remeo
for this state OF affairs appears to be
possible than at least temporary re-
duction in our activities until the
country's capital and credit facilities
have again reached p point sufficient

Situation Desperate.

In a telegram, dated yesterday,
Vice Admiral Philbert reports inter-
mittent artillery fire at Casa Blanca
both from the land and from the
sea, to keep the tribesmen back from
the town. Quiet prevails at the other
Morocco ports.
The Figaro this morning declares
General Drude has telegraphed the
minister of war asking for reinforce
ments.
The same paper publishes a uis-
patch from its correspondent at Casa
Blanca confirming the report that
Mulai Hafig, brother of the sultan of
Morocco, was proclaimed sultan on
August 16 in the mosque at Morocco
City. This indicates a revolt against
the indecision of the sultan. The
correspondent adds that a revival OF
fanaticism is bound to follow, and
Mulai Hafig will raise the green
banner of the prophet and be fol-
lowed by half the empire.
The situation of the French and
Spanish forces on shore, the CORES
pondent concludes, is very serious,
and unless reinforcements are sent
they will be obliged to re-embark.
