SIXTY KILLED
''sres eatt'e Between Moore and French in Which Moors Are
 Defeated.

Casa Blanca, Sunday. via Tangier. oct.-Timely arrival of Gen. Drude With reinforcements alone saved Col De Fretay's reconnoitering column rom annihilation near Taddert. The troops which were sent out to search Tor the body of Frenchman named kuntZer, who had wandered from the camp and was murdered. consisted of detachment of cavalry, two compan- les of infantry and a section of a rapid Ire gun battery. On arriving at Va. reg group of 60 Moorish horsemen was seen on top of mound Col. De fretay ordered a squad of regular Al gerian cavalry to give chase, and not pursuit was kept up for about three miles, when suddenly the hills beyond were seen to be swarming with horsemen. The Algerian troops, seal- izing that they had fallen into a trap. retired slowly.
 Nevertheless, the situation was growing critical. Fully 5000 white clad Moorish warriors threatened to ove: whelm Col. De Fraty's column, when Gen. Drude, who arrived upon the Moorish flank unobserved, with two companies of infantry, two batter les of field guns and another section of the rapid-fire gun battery. The Moors were taken completely by sur prise, and Gen. Drude quickly massed and launched his cavalry into a furi- ous charge on the Moors, resulting in fierce hand-to-hand fighting, the French troopers and Algerian irregu- lars sabreing the enemy right and left. The Moors were unable to withstand the attack, and broke and fled. The French losses were an officer and two men killed and nine soldiers wound ed. More than 60 Moors were left dead on the field, the majority being killed by the sabre. During the height of the combat the French cruiser Gloire hugged her anchorage and dropped shells among the Moors. The Moors participating in the attack were two of Mulai Hafg's armies, united under Mulai Rachid.
