THE MOROCCAN SQUABBLE.
WRANGLE BETWEEN FRANCE AND SPAIN. GERMAN CLAIMS FEARED. (Received 10, 8.5 a.m.) Paris, January 9. The negotiations between France and Spain over Morocco are still beclouded. France requires that the Sultan shall retain general sovereignty, including the Spanish zone. Spain appeals to Franco under the Spanish treaty of 1904 for freedom within her sphere of influence. Meanwhile the main newspapers, fearing that Germany might otherwise advance fresh claims in Africa, urge a speedy ratification of the Moroccan treaty, also effective occupation of the territory in which France is entitled to exercise a protectorate.
