FEZ PR0CLAIMS new SULTAN
MorOceans, After Three Days Riot.
ing, Hail Mulai Hafd.
MuIai Abdul Aziz Loses His Throne
Because of His Associations
with Europeans.

Tangier, Jan. 12.-Three days rioting at
Fez, the capital, preceded the proclama-
ton of Mulai Hafd as Sultan of Morocco.
The rioting was due TO Sultan Mulai
Abdul Aziz attempting to bribe the Ule-
mas into consenting to the employment
of European troops against the pretender
who is the Sultans brother. Finally a
meeting OF all the shereefs and Ulemas
was held in the principal mosque. at which
Mulai Abdul Aziz was unanimously de-
posed, and Mulsi Hafd proclaimed as
Sultan in his stead.
letter was sent TO Abdul Aziz in
forming him that the shereefs and Ulemas
would no longer recognize him as Sultan,
since he always acted against their re
ligion, held intercourse with the Euro
pean powers, borrowed money from them,
employed foreign officers. allowed France
to occupy two towns. and received vari-
Gus foreign decorations. all of which was
contrary TO the Koran.
a deputation has left the capital, con-
veying presents to Afulai Hafd- He will
be asked to go to Fee as soon as possible.
At the same time the deputation will out
line to him the conditions under which
he will be permitted 10 ascend the throne.
1t will be provided that the Algeciras con
vention will remain in force with the ex-
ception of the clause relating to the new
police force, and its instruction by for
eigners. and that Mulai Haid will place
himself under the protection Of the Sui
tan of Turkey.
1t Is reported that Abdul Aziz asked
the French military for aid against Mulai
Hafid. and also requested that troops be
sent to Rabat 10 protect the Spanish con-
sulate. Gen. d'Aumade, the French com
mander, has accordingly dispatched 1900
troops TO Rabat.
Mulai Hahd has also been proclaimed
Sultan at Mequinez, where, as at Fez. the

are not stowaways. He was sent to Ellis
Islands, and will go back to Southampton

More Justice
Court Work

The justice court was again
engaged in the disposition of
cases in Phoebe this week. JUS
tice Maynard is kept quite busy
in travelling from Caliente to
Phoebe these days, in the alb
sence of our local justice. The
most important case occupying
the attention Of the court was
the trial of Vito Testa and Tony
Gamblni, charged with forgery
and obtaining money under false
pretenses.
1t seems, from the facts at
hand, that a letter was dropped
in the letter box at Royal CITY
containing a check for $51. rs.
and sufficient stamps placed on
the letter for registering at Pr
oche. Inc letter, however,
never reached its destination.
Deputy Sheriff Fitzgerald was
informed and an investigation
started, with the result that it
was determined that Vito Testa
chashed the check at the Bank
of Phoebe, Inc. When called
upon for an explanation. he
stated that he had received it
from one Tony Gambini. Tony
was brought on the carpet and
claimed that he had received it
an Englishman working at ROYAL
City, who gave it to him to bring
to Phoebe to have cashed: that
he had done so and returned the
money to the Englishman.
The State was not in a posi-
tion to successfully rebut this
evidence, and upon recommends
tion of District Attorney Horsey.
the defendants were discharged,
for the reason that sufficient
evidence was not available to
convict.
Other petty offenders were
hauled up and given ''floaters. J"
