THE SITUATION IN MOROCCO
FROM A POLITICAL STANDPOINT
Is SATISFACTORY,
But Same Can Not Be Said Of Military
outlook, Which is Causing
Great Concern.


Paris, Sept 9.-Dispatches from
Tangier indicate that the armies of the
pretender, Mulai Hafix. and of the sui.
tan will meet In few days.
Despite the assurances of the pre-
tender that foreigners will not be mo.
Tested, most of the Europeans at Rabat
are preparing to leave, fearing wave
of terror may follow the prospective
battle.
Representatives of the pretender
have made such strong pleas for his
recognition by the powers that the
matter is receiving serious considera-
tion. II Is generally admitted that
Abdul Assiz has practically no control
over the southern tribesmen, while
nearly all Of them have sworn allie
glance to bis rival.
Another problem that has given the
powers much anxiety Is the danger
that. following the installation OF the
foreign police at the several ports, the
antiEuropean movement may be re-
vIved. Many Europeans now In Mo
rocco have warned their representative
governments that anything that loks
like further encrochment by France or
Spain will be resented by the Moors,
and that there Is ever strong possibil-
iiy NJ the declaration o; the long dred-
cd holy war.

struck Il popular note by his handling

THREE WOMEN HURT
IN SAME MANNER
ACCIDENTS HAPPEN IN WIDELY
SCATTERED DISTRICTS
All Three Try to AIisht Before Cars
Stop and Receive Injuries
Of Similar
Nature

Within the space of an hour last
night and in widely separated sections
of the city three women met with ac-
cidents an street cars in exactly the
same manner and stranger to say all
received exactly the same character of
injuries.
Shortly after o'clock Mrs. e. Moron.
who resides at 1856 North Main street,
stepped from a car before 1t had come
to a stop and was thrown a consid-
erable distance. She received slight
cut over her left ear and slight con-
cussion Of the brain.
The crew of tho C carried her to her
home but few doors away and left
her in care of her friends. A surgeon
was summoned who dressed her wound
and gave her proper medical attention.
Mrs. Moron stated that she thought she
could drop off the car in front Of her
home in safety and thus save walking
less than 100 feet.
At $50 o'clock Mrs. .. M. Parlee, who
resides at 1454 East Twenty-third
street, alighted from a car at First and
Spring street before 1t came to a stop
and was thrown to the pavement.
Scalp Lacerated
She received lacerated wound of the
scalp above the left ear and a slight
conoussion. She vas taken to the re-
ceiving hospital where Police Surgeon
Quint attended ler, after which she was
sent to her home.
Ten minutes after the accident to
Mrs. Parlee had been reported Miss
Kate Woithen, domestic employed In
the family of S. s. Phillips, at 1925
West Washington street, attempted to
get off an inbound Washington street
car near Ectrella otreet before 1t had
come to a stop and was thrown to the
pavement She received slight con-
cussion of the brain and lacerated
wound behind the left ear. She was
returning from a visit to relatives at
1928 Arlington avenue. Her injuries
were treated at the receiving hospital
by Surgeons Quint ard Bo. yn3e and
she was then placed in care Of the
matron and will be sent to her home
this morning. The condition of none
of these women is serious.

snsc,a, correspondence of The Herald.
WASHINGTON, June 12.-It is likely
that the sixtieth congress will be COM
pelled to thresh out again the matter
of reorganizing the consular service.
Although bill providing for this was
drawn by Senator Lodge and enacteo
at the last session, the business inter-
ests Of the country are no1 ai.os9.nsl ,1;l
satisfied with it. The National Busl-
ness league has submitted to the ad-
ministration the draft of q new law
and the matter Is now under consio-
Grafton. Among its provisions are:
/. Removal of the service from the
sphere OF political influence by enact
ment Of s'merit'' system of examina-
tion, appointment and promotion OF
consuls.
p Creation of an examining board,
with examination scale of so to 100 :.
8. Minimum and maximum age limit
of 21 and 40 years, respectively, 1or
admission to the service.
4. Consuls to be familiar with one
modern language other than Engnsn
and possess a knowledge of the nat
ural, Industrial and commercial re-
sources and the commerce of the
United States.
(. Tenure of Office to continue only
during efficiency and conduct OF the
highest grade.
The remarkable strides made by the
commerce of the United States within
the last five years has rendered 1t i'm
perative that this country shall have
competent representatives abroad. Ed
ucated men are needed to foster and
advance the trade being upbuilt, and
the fact that graduates of colleges hav-
ing departments devoted to the train
ing of men for the public service have
made the most enviable records, leads
the administration to look with favor
upon a further 'stiffening" Of the con-
ditions governing admission to the
service. SNf fEMt u
Another feature that undoubtedly
will have a powerful influence on the
action OF the coming congress is the
existence at university of a depart
ment that is turning out men fitted
for the service in every way. At the
commencement exercises this week 1t
was announced that this department
has been completely reorganized and
hereafter will be known as the DEPART
ment of the political sciences. 1t for
merly was known as the department
of politics and diplomacy.
