MARCH OF TRIUMPH
Dr. Dawson Enlists Students in His Army of
 Reform.
FROM CAFE TO BARRooM
Plan to Gather in Drunken Men and Women Saturday and Con.
 vert Them.

Dr. William Dawson, at the meeting of the Ya1e students iIi Dwight hall last night, outlined the master stroke of the Chapman campaign in the midst of the throes of which the city now is. pr. Dawson was introduced to the students by r. l.. Luther of the Yale Daily News, and after brief ad- dress urged them to become converted to the Christian faith. Calling for raising of hands by those who were willing he received response of perhaps thirty.
 Then Dr. Dawson said that next Saturday night, headed by band of eight pieces for which John Magee, secretary of Dwight hall has promised the money, the evangelists with Yale students will go from saloon to saloon throughout the city and collect all the intoxicated men and women possible. They will hurry them to some near by church or hall and there Dr. Daw- son and other evangelists will address and convert them.
 The students and evangelists are to march four abreast and some com petent guide will be secured to direct them to the different saloons. Men of every class of life, in the saloons and dining rooms where liquor is sold, will be taken to the church. the crowd singing "Hallelujah."
 Strangely enough this plan does not appeal to the keepers of cafes and sa- looms about the center of the city. One, when informed of what was brewing. at his house last night said that while he was willing to have the Chapman revivalists hold meetings in his place of business if they wished to, and was willing that the Salvation Army collectors should reap a rich harvest about four times an evening, but that he was not willing that the revivalists should enter his place and take away the customers willingly or unwlllingly.
 While some of the students take the matter seriously most of them think that the idea presents an excellent chance to have some fun. Already marching clubs to prepare for the grand progress of reform are talked of and the campus will be alive through the week with students practicing for the event.

SERIOUS TURN
 IN MOROCCO Wise Men Issue a Decree De- throning Abd- el- -Aziz and Repudiating Algeciras
 Agreement.
TO ExPEL FRENCH TROOPS
Only Prompt and Drastic Action Will Save the Day for the Powers An International Tangle
 Threatened.

Tangier, Jan. 12.-There is much con- sternation among Moroccan officials at the sensational news from Fez, an- ncunclng the proclaiming of Mulai Haid sultan and the dangerous condl- tions now prevailing Tn that city. Couriers swho have arrived here am nounce also that the people of Mequ- inez have proclaimed Mulai Hafid sul- tan. According to latest information from Fez. the Ulemss, or Wise Men, were forced to decree the overthrow of Abd el-Aziz, the sultan of record and proclaim Mulli Hafid sultan In his place, by the attitude of the populace who were greatly excited over reports that Abdel-Aziz had sold the country to France,
 The announcement by the public or der was received with frantic joy. Mulai Hafid was proclaimed sultan un- der certain conditions which he must accept together with the title. Among these conditions are the following: iidi llt lSJtNNS luN falStNli etllt CA pals the French troops from Morocco, prohibits access to the interior of Euro peans, who with the Jews. 1t is set forth, should be allowed to occupy only quarters in the ports reserved for them; prohibits Moorish subjects from placing themselves under the protec- ton of foreign consulites, secures Mo rocco's rights in the frontier question with Algeria, and suppresses taxa ton.
 Paris. Jan 12,--The French govern ment is greatly embarrassed at the un- expected turn of events in Morocco. The proclaiming of Mulai Hafid Sultan, at Fez, was coincident with the arrival in Paris of Mohammed sidiel Mokhri, who came here as finance minister to Abdel-Aziz to negotiate a loan of s30.o0o, coo and the march on Ra t of General D'Armade. commander oi the French forces in Morocco, with 4,o)O men.
 In twinkling the entire situation has become changed and the whole country Is threatened with civil war. It is all the. more serious for France, as the despatches whicn nave ben re- ceived relating to the situation leaves no doubt as to the fanatical appeal of tho supporters of Mulai Hafid being directed chiefly against France, and a holy war might arouse Frances Mo hammedan subjects across the Alger- ian frontier
 Premier Clemenccau. Gen. Picquart, the minister of war. M Caillaux. min ister of finance and M. Rcgnault, min ister to Morocco, have been in confer ence all day. Although 1t Is only an- nounced that arrangements were being made to install the police at the ports of Tangier and Rao it is the general belief that the government cannot hes itate in taking prompt and energetic action. Ii is believed that this alone may save the day for Abd elAzlz, whose downfall would mean the end of the Alseciras act, the weakness of which is that it did not foresee the possibility of such a change of rulers.

HAYNES CRITICISES lBSEN
Tells Yale Students Robert Ingersoll
 Was . Splendid Pagan

Rev. Artemas J. Haynes of the Unit
 ed church. preaching to the Yale stu
 dents in Battell chapel yesterday mor-
 ming, spoke of Ibsen's plays as over
 drawn
 In particular he referred to the play
 "Ghosts'' He said that Ibsen is de-
 picting the chief character as a victim
 of heredity, unable to overcome his dis
 advantages, and sinking to the lowest depths, goes too far The same criti- oism, he said. may be made of Ibsen-s other plays They do not ring true, he said.
 Dr. Haynes quoted the late Robert Ingersoll, calling him splendid pagan. He spoke of his lofty strain of thought but said it was perhaps not so lofty as it would have been had the writer been a Christian.
 Dr. Haynes text was from Ezekiel |1S: ?. ''The fathers have eaten sour grapes and the children's teeth are set on edge" He said that the influence of heredity had been over-estimated.

Read the JOurnal-Courier for full re- ports of all the Chapman meetings.

hehd tnc J0ufnai-COurfer for full re. ports of all the Chapman meetings.
 Dr. Henry ostrom did not mince words at the meeting for men at Poli's theater yesterday afternoon. Using his own expression, he used lots of mustard, we'll ground up and little flour or cream. No subject was spared treatment. Mrs. Pauline Glidden Chapman, the cornetist, who was the only lady present, had to be asked by the evangelist in an aside to leave the stage during the sermon. The big theater building was crowded. The number present was a tribute fo inc general enthusiasm in the work belng done,
 pr. Ostrom spoke in a confidential sort of tone. Many of his expressions and siniles were homely but forceful. He commenced his talk by speaking of the central fund provided for |. $ campaign, and said that offerings would be taken at all the meetings from now on. He said that the great est reliance was placed on the assnunt to be taken up at the mems meel
 and that he expected the offering yes- terday afternoon to be very liyeral. Silver and paper, he said, would be acceptable, and asked the ushers to come forward and pass the boxes for the money. Before the singing of the next hymn he urged everyone at the meeting to leave their song books when they went out as the books would be needed again.
 After the collection had been taken Mir Ostrom said: The noon meetings will commence in this theater We'd nesday. They will commence about 12.05. If you get here at 12:25 you will hear the sermon. IfAyou wish to catch a 1 o'clock train you can, for the meetings will close promptly at five minutes of IT
 Dr. Ostrom took as his subject Tho Every day Man. and used no text. The everyday man, he explained, was neither the dudish, nor the prudish, nor the Sunday" nah. as he saw him. He is rather the man who lives and dies we'll. Too carefully Is the line drawn between things sacred and things not sacred, Nothing need have an especial sacred character of It's own. "It is just as sacred to saw wood as to sing psalm; to peal a po- tato as to pray 8 prayer, if these things are done as they should be done" he said. ''Sacredness consists in everyday right doing The every day life has come to have an relation with the souls welfare. That is the trouble. Reverence is that quality

ARRIVAL OF FLEET
Rio Janeiro's Population Turns Out
 En Masse to Greet it.

Rio Janeiro, Jan. 12.-The Ameri- can fleet of sixteen battleships enter ed the port of Rio Jaheiro at o'clock this afternoon after a passage from Port of Spain, Trinidad more than 5000 miles, unmarred by serious acci- dent replete with interesting incidents an dending with a royal welcome from the thousands that had gathered to greet the visitors
 The fleet weighed anchor at o'clock on the afternoon of December 29 at Port of Spain, and exactly at o'clock to-day the vessels were swing ing at their anchor in this beautiful harbor All of the battleships are here. but the supply ships Culgoa and Glacier are still at sea, not having been able to keep along with the oth- CTS. The fleet has now covered about 4,600 miles, about third the distance of the voyage to San Francisco,
 Early in the morning the crowds be- gan to gather in the streets of Rio Janeiro, and long. before the signal flags were hoisted announcing the ap- proach of the American ships of war, thousands of curious spectators had taken up the points of vantage on public buildings and the elevated quays When the feet steamed into the harbor under the splendid noun tains that framed the'bay, beautiful in the tropical sun, it was spectacle in comparable to the eye
 Passing the fortresses here the Con- necticut fired salute of 21 guns which was responded to by the Brazil ian warships, the German cruiser Bre- pen and the shore guns. The yards and fighting tops were manned and cheers were given for the splendid passage of the flagship and her sister ships.
 As soon as the anchorage was made, the Esrazilian minister of marine, Ad- miral Alencar, the captain of the port, the A merican consul. c. F.. Anderson. the conlmandarts of naval divisions and the civic authorities went on board the Connecticut and extended a hearty welcome to Rear Admiral Evans his officers and men Hundreds of launch es. tugs and small boats circled about the battleships until long after the sun dad gone down. Not less than 15,000 to 10000 persons were aboard these boats and more than 50,000 others were gathered on shore to celebrate the com Ing of the fleet. Tonight the city is beautifully Illuminated and has been made a gala occasion in honor of the visitors.
 At midnight on the 5th the fleet crossed the Equator and Father Nep- tune visited the ships. On the flagship Connecticut, Neptune. surrounded by his various assistants and satellites, addressed warm welcome 10 the ad- miral in command. Never before had so many recruits crossed the line at one time. numbering fully 90 per cent. of the crews. This great number of green hands gave Father Neptune and his followers an unusual opportunity to put them through the initiation with inimtahle spirit. Neptunes flag hung at the yardarms. There was the usual lathering and shaving by the barbers and the ducking in the tanks which was administered by the bears.
 Early on Friday morning false alarm of man over board was sent out from the Missouri, which brought the fleet to a quick stop and boats were lowered. It was an excellent drill and well nerforr11ad

GOOD GAME FILL
7OMORROW'S CARD
JeWeI-Keio Game Is The
Feature Event o.
The Day

Tomorrow, the baseball fans will
be treated to quite sight for tired
eyes. The Jewels will start the per-
Torrance with the Santa Clara team.
but the real event of the day ought
to be the second game. In which the
Diamond Heads, short a catcher, will
try to stop the Keios. The prophets
are reduced to guesswork pure and
simple, but they will be off their
guess II this game is not worth see
ing.
In the first place. the Jewels have
shown n nice spirit in consenting to
play when decidedly crippled. And
they will go into 1t for the sport, be-
yond q doubt. And all the time 1t Is
helping the game when Keio buckles
down and plays at lick which wins
for this bunch the pride and support
of the japanese fans.
That the bleechers will ring with
banzais tomorrow is only a natural
consequence.
