MACHINE GUNS At CoNsULATEs.
Second Attempt of MoOrs to Invade Town of
Casablanca

Casablanca, Aug 9.-The Afoors last night re
newed their attempt 10 invade Casablanca, but
were repulsed with heavy losses by the fire from
the warships. All the consulates here are now
guarded by machine guns
The total Of the Moorish losses here is esd-
mated al two thousand.
The brunt Of the fighting which preceded the
coming ashore of the first French landing party
was borne by the British Consulate. On Mon
day the French Consul begged the British Con-
sui, Mr.. Madden, TO vacate his consulate ana
come over TO the French Consulate for protec-
ton Fortunately, s II turned out later. Mr..
Madden declined, and accordingly Lieutenant
Tyssier. with thirty men from the French cruiser
GaIilee was sent over TO guard the British Con-
gulate Had Mr.. Madden moved his consulate
would have been occupied by the Arabs, and the
building would have given them position from
which they could command the Spanish Con-
sulate. AS q result, the Spaniards might nave
been driven back and the whole aspect Of affairs
changed. As It was, Mr.. Maddens fiehch
guard kept the Arabs al bay
II was learned to-day that as an outcome OF
an unfortunate misunderstanding on Monday
night two Frenchmen lost their lives a party
Of French guards at the residence OF MI
Ferneau on the waterfront. were fired on by
their comrades stationed at the French ana
Portuguese cOnsulates- A stray shot led the
guards who were not acquainted with the
topography of the town, 10 ire IN the direction
of Ferneau's house IN the mistaken notlon that

Wednesday morning was the most anxious
time. The entire surrounding country swarmed
with mounted Arabs VINO appeared indiffer-
ent 10 the shells fred by the warships, and at
the same time others had begun TO attack the
consulates. The courage and spirit OF the
Frenchmen saved the situation The Arabs IN
the night had occupied certain advanced posi-
i lions which threatened the British consulate
from three sides and practically cut II off The
situation became so serious at 1l:45 that Mr.
Madden was compelled to make a sortie The
relieving squadron arrived none too soon, and
Immediately the fighting came to an end and
the Arabs FASTENED to escape before the gates
were seized. Had the Arabs from the outside
made a more determined and organized attack

which instant Chase fell. This rumor
proved 20 be unfounded, and Gilbert
is n of the Territory's principal wit

In this connection an instance in
the Lincoln county court, in which
Jap Clark was on trial for ualawfuly
handling a deadly weapon, is being
old Major w. H. H. Llewellyn was
the district attorney and Col. G. w.
Prichard was defending Clark. In
his argument to the jury, Llewellyn
painted Clark as an exceptionally bad
cowboy, and in every sense of the
word a diabolical desperate. At every
term applied to him by the district at
.torney, calling attention to his les
perate character, Clark Strengthened
up in his chair, expanded his lungs
lawyers, jurors and audience. It
pleased him immensely. Col. Prich-
ard, in his argument denied all that
Llewellyn had said, and declared Il
verseley, that Clark was nothing but
a big cowboy, a little reckless in some
man.; he was in fact, a big, good ma
tured BOBBY, with neither the desire
to hurt anyone nor the nerve to carry
any suc desire into effect should he
formulate one. During this address to
the jury Clark made himself as small
as possible. 1t did not please him.
Jury after celebrating a short half
hour returned a verdict of not guilty
Walking down the street with a friend
after the trial, Clark said: We'll,
Prichard got me out of this but Llew-

This is a true incident, and goes to
show, as 4 people say, that although
Clark is not in reality a a man, he
is DESTROYS of having the name.
In the present case Colonel G.. w.
Prichard and A. B. Renehan of Santa

The trial will be vigorously fought by
the Territory and the defense, and
