TANGIER, Sept 7.-Events In Morocco
are marching on with great rapdity. Yes
terday both the sultans, Add Ell Aziz and
Mulai Haig, were reported TO be leaving
the rival capitals, Fee and Morocco City,
at the head of armies which had been levied
in haste and which may decide within
fortnight the destiny of Moroccos
monarchy The immediate objective of
these forces is the ancient city of Rabat,
on the Atlantic seaboard. the prior posses
sion of which great center of western
Islam's national life probably would have
an important, II not a decisive, bearing
upon the struggle for supremacy Half
way between Fec and Morocco City, Rabat
is the natural frontier port, dividing north
ern and southern Morocco. and there the
dramatic interest of the situation for the
moment cuminates.
Both sultans are sons of the same father
and they are daily issuing passionate ap-
peals to the patriotism and religious
thusiasm of the naton-each denouncing
his rival as being worse than an infidel, a
traitor to Islam.
In the meanwhile the powers have not
yet decided whether to recognize Mulai
Hafg as sultan of the south. seemingly
awaiting the result of the appeal to the
arbitrament of civil war. The general inn

that any extension of the Intervention of

Germany VIII Acauiesce.

BERLIN, Sept. 7.-Germany's reply to
Frances circular note TO the signatories OF
the Algeciras convention will not be drawn
up before Monday next 1t is understood
in the most influential quarters that Ger
many will not give a negative reply to the
suggestion that the international Moroccan
police be temporarily constituted from
purely French and Spanish clements Some
reserves, however, will certainly be made
on the subject. II is fully understood here
that the present situation at Casablanca
and Mazagan was not foreseen at the time
the AIgeciras convention was drawn up
and requires to be specially dealt with but
Germany will consent for the moment TO
rely ON French loyalty to the engagements
entered into. No limitation. therefore, is
likely to be placed on the French military
movements so long as they are considered
to be necessary for the security of Euro
peans and of the Moroccan ports.

that the powers have placed no hindrance

tons, says:

But the formation of the international

II forms the first rent in the Algeciras con-
vention. No body has the right to doubt

Moors Ask ArmIstIce.

PARIS, Sept. IA special dispatch from
Casablanca received here this afternoon
announced that the various Moorish tribes
around that place had asked General Drude
the French commander, to suspend hostili-
ties for the purpose of negotiating peace.
The general, the dispatch says, agreed to
remain inactive until tomorrow. when he
will march on Taddert
{NThe spondent who sent the dispatch
sayg + 1t is suspected that the tribesmen
iA NEGOTIATING with the French commander
are2 only seeking to gain time. Vice Ad-
miral Philibert cables from Casablanca
under yesterdays date that negotiations
contue at Mazagan on the subject of the
disputed ownership of the arms and am
munition detained there. He adds that all
the Moroccan ports remain quiet.
The French nation has suddenly become
to the realization that the Moroccan ques-
tion looms bigger eevry day. The real
question is: VIII France be compelled in
order 70 crush the hostile Moors, to des-
patch an imposing expeditionary army into
the interior. II is generally accepted that
General Drude. with his force of 1000 men,
is powerless to make punitive trip into
an unknown country and against the
enemy which number now over 10000 men,
and whose forces are reported to be con-
stantly growing. Casablanca, meanwhile,
could be seized by the Moors. 1t is realized
that France is placed in a most delicate
position in trying to remove the suspicious
OF the powers and at the same time pacity
the Moors.
Apart from the situation at casablanca,
the proposed occupation of the Moroccan
ports by French and Spanish troops, which
has been agreed to by the powers, will
place the responsibility for securing order
upon France and Spain, the limits OF whose
operations must necessarily be governed
by the future attitude of the Moors 1t
is admitted on all sides that the organiza-
tion OF the police and the pacification' of
Morocco will prove to be long and COM
