Disturbed over News.

Paris, Jan. 1.-The government Is considerably disturbed over the unex- pected declaration of a holy war at Fez and the proclamation of Mulai Hahd as Sultan of Morocco. It is now anxiously awaiting information as to the number of tribes who will follow the rebel sul- tan. Everything will depend, 1t is ex- plained. upon the strength which Mulai Hafid develops. It is pointed out also that France and Spain, holding a man. date from the powers, have no option but to recognize Abdel Aziz as the le- gitimate Sultan. He signed the Alge- ciras act for Morocco and France and Spain will have sto treat with him and sustain him so long as the official gov ernment remains in his hands.
 Should the rebel sultan become for midable, it is conceivable that the coun- try might become divided. Mulai Hafid being supreme in the interior and Ab- del Aziz. with the support of France and Spain, ruling on the coast. Such a situation might readily produce in ternational complications.
 The immediate result of the procla- nation of Mulai Hafd as sultan Is cer- tain to be the indefinite prolongation of the stay of the French and Spanish troops In Morocco, which soon were to be withdrawn as it would now be i'm possible to confide the policing of the ports to Abdel Aziz without the safe- guard of European troops. Pending further developments, however, the governments of France and Spain will proceed with the installation of a po- lice force at Tangier and Rabat. while General D'Armade. the commander of the French forces in Morocco. will pro- ceed vigorously with the work of paci- flying the country around Casa Blanca.
 Further advices received here from IA claimed Sultan on condition that he abolish taxation, make an alliance with the Sultan of Turkey and suppress all relations with Europeans, except those "prescribed by custom and rule"
 Couriers have been despatched to Morocco City to summon Mulai Hand to Fez. That city Is reported to be in an uproar. The residents are armed and are. fearful lest outbreaks of pill lage or 8 massacre occur.

SCHOOL POLICE
MAKE CAPTURE
Amateur SIeuths of kaahumanu
Land Nuisance in
Jail.

The police bureau of the city gov
eminent of Kaahumanu school effected
the capture of a real offender yester-
day after laying plans for his capture,
and then, as last resort, so that the
real law of the Territory would hold
good, they called in the detectives Of
Chief Kalakiela. The prisoner, a
young white fellow named C. Piper, is
now held at the police station and will
probably appear before Judge Andrade
this morning.
For several weeks, but principally N
the last six days, girls going home
from schools have been subjected to
annoyance by man whom they de-
seribed as having yellow hair, beard
less face and was apparently young, a
man who rode bicycle. He appeared
to wait for the girls near street cor
ners where he would not be easily ob-
served by householders near by, ana
would then make nuisance of himself.
In some instances he laid hands ga
girls, who ran away. AT times he
would appear near the Kaahumanu
school, and at other times near the
Normal school.
Brothers and other male relatives IF
the girls were told of the actions of the
stranger, and the matter was laid be-
fore the police bureau of the city gov
eminent of the Kaahumanu school. The
amateur policemen threw out skirmish
ers and saw enough to convince them
of the truth of the tales, and they
began to close in on the fellow On
Wednesday some boys and men caught
sight of him near Prospect street while
he was aecosting girls, and they gave
chase The fellow, having a bicycle,
easily got away.
Detective Madeiros was detailed On
the case by Chief Kalakiela, to whom
the school police chief and officers re
ported the facts Of the case. Madeiros
instructed the boys in their duties as
sleuths and whistle was agreed upon,
but yesterday the offender failed To
show up. Acting on the description
given him, Madeiros found the man in
little shop down town, and took him
to the station He was identified by
the school police, and then couple Of
dozen school girls came down, and
recognized him at once.
Even the Susanna Wesley Home had
not been neglected by the young fell
low and he made nuisance of himself
in that neighborhood. The people Of
the Home also recognized young Piper~
The latter denies that he has been l.,
the vicinity of the schools or that he
did any of the things accredited to him.
