TROUBLE

London, Sept. 3.-The British gov
ernment is holding aloof from Mulai
Hafid, the new sultan of Morocco for
the present but proposes to recognize
him in due time. The British officials
are irritated by the course adopted
by Germany, which is regarded as
attempting to gain influence over and
the good will of Mulai Hafid by steal
ing march ON the other powers.
Consultations are going on between
Great Britain, France and Spain and
there is no doubt the two former will
act together and probably insist that
Mulai Hafd give promises to carry
out the obligations of Morocco to the
powers before they recognize him.
An Explanation from Germany.
Berlin, Sept. 3.-The action of Ger
many concerning Morocco was ex-
planned today. 1t is limited to a sug-
gestion to the signatory powers of
the Algeciras act, that the time has
arrived to recognize Mul al Hafid as
sultan of Morocco. Official wonder
ment is expressed at the agitation
of the French and English news
papers over the occurrence.
