CASA BLANCA TODAY
IS CITY OF DEAD
Town Filled With CorpSeS and
Many Dwellings Ruined In Ma
tive Quarter Occasional At
taCkS on Jews NeCesSi-
tate Fighting.

Tangier, Morocco, August S.-The
French warships yesterday landed
two thousand additional men at Casa
Blanca, where the street fighting ap-
parently continues.
The Jewish quarters at Casa Blan-
ca have been sacked. Many persons
were massacred in the streets and
the city is said to be full of dead
Mcors, and the Moorish quarter is in
ruins from the shells of the big guns.
The warships continue TO drop an
occasional shell into groups of Kaby-
les on the beach in order to prevent
them from approaching the town.
Advices from Rabat say that the
Kabyles have given the governor q
fortnight in which to withdraw the
French controller OF customs. Other
wise say they will attack the town.
Andjerras and his tribesmen near
Tangier are creating some apprehen-
sion that a surprise attack may be
made on the city.
Quiet at Casa Blanca Today.
A steamer. which arrived here to-
cay from Casa Blanca, reports that
quiet has been restored there among
the natives and that the Europeans
are all well. The bombardment of
the place by the French cruisers
lasted forty-eight hours. The native
quarter Is much damaged.
Additional French forces were
landed at Casa Blanca yesterday af-
ternoon. The report of the bonn
bardment of Mazagan by the French
cruiser was confirmed by the steam
er's officers.

GOVERNOR MAKES
EXCELLENT SPEECH

When GOV. Curry rose to speak
his voice could not be heard for sew
eral minutes because of the terrific
applause. Ladies and gentlemen
alike arose to their seats, clapping
hands and handkerchiefs and para
soils were waved I'm the air and one
cheer after another completely
drowned every word the new eXecu-
tive uttered.
Governor Curry is not a man of
words, but a man Of action. The
strong. decisive manner in which he
uttered what he had to say showed
his character better perhaps than
anything else could have done. He
said that he desired to be judged by
his actions rather than his words.
He said he was not ashamed Of the
record he had left i'm the Philippine
Islands and he believed he had the
good will Of the people Of New Mex
leo with him.
He eulogized the president and
stated that he would advance and
carry out TO the best of his ability
in every way, shape and form, the
policies Of President Roosevelt and
the republican party.
He asked that the people cooperate
with him for good government and
the advancement Of New Mexico and
ne expressed the hope that New

Mexico would secure statehood at
the hands of the next congress. He
stated that he was in favor of single
statehood first, but If it could not be
secured with joint statehood next
He said that he intended to go to
Washington to work for a statehood
bill and that he would do everything
in his power TO secure statehood;
that he hoped his term of office as
governor under the territorial form
would be even shorter than that of
H. j. Hagerman, and that his time
admission of New Mexico to the
union as a state.
VIII Work for Statehood.
In conclusion he told the people
that If they united with him and sup
ported him, he would give them his
word that everything he could do for
the cause of good government and
the speedy admission of this terri
tory to the union as a state would be
done with all his heart.
Informal Reception.
The governor then thanked the
people for the reception rendered
him and the hearty welcome given
him upon his return to New Mexico,
and attempted to sit down. Cheers
upon cheers rent the air and there
was a crush of people, with every one
pressing forward at once to shake
the executive Dy the ndnu.
For fully an hour the new govern
or was kept busy shaking hands with
old friends and new friends. Those in
the hall after paying their respects
passed out and a continuous stream
passed in. 1t was undoubtedly the
most strenuous hour in the new gov
ernor's life. despite his rather strenu-
Gus military experience.
Man of the People.
That Gov Curry will be one of the
most popular executives New Mexico
ever had is assured. He is a man
of the people. He knows the peo-
pile. The crisp, short sentences he
uttered in his speech this afternoon
went straight to the heart of every
listener. Santa Fe has never seen a
speaker stir an assemblage such as
was present today as did George
Curry.
Assumes His Duties.
Following the Inauguration and in
formal reception the governor was
has taken up the reins as governor
of New Mexico.
This evening at o'clock there will
be an enormous public reception at
the Palace hotel followed by the
most brilliant ball of the social season
in Santa Fe.
Leaders Together.
one of the most notable things
here today was the fact that the lead
ers of the republican party are all
together.
AK Is Buried.
There appears to be absolutely no
political or personal differences. The
ak, If il ever existed, has been buried
and everything points TO a stronger
administration of territorial affairs
and a stronger republican party than
ever in the history of New Mexico.
1t Is believed that the absolute fair
ness shown by Governor Curry VIII
have the effect OF strengthening out
many a difficulty in political circles,
and will result in perfect harmony
and unity in the republican ranks.

Santa Fe, N. NJ, August S.-(Spe-
ciaD-George Curry was inaugurated
governor of New Mexico at 2:21
o'clock this afternoon when he took
the oath of office in the midst of the
most brilliant assemblage ever gath
cred together at an inauguration In
this territory.
The oath was administered by
Chief Justice VIM. j. Mills, who, to-
gether with Associate Justices Par
ker, McF'ie and Abbott, Ex-Governor
NJ A. Otero, Territorial Secretary J.
W. Reynolds, Attorney General G.
w. Prichard and Judge A. b. FAN.
occupied the speakers stand with the
new executive.
The hall of the house of represen-
tatives was crowded until it was i'm
possible for one more person TO
squeeze through the doors. The gal
leries were filled to their utmost ca
pacity and people were standing In
the halls, the corridors and upon the
stairways and there were several
hundred people upon the grounds
surrounding the Capitol building.
An Eloquent Introduction.
Following the administration of
the oath, A b. Fall, in lengthy and
eloquent address, introduced the new
governor and gave a brief review OF
his career. Those who heard the
speech of Judge Fall are of the opln-
ion that 1t was one Of the most mas
terful efforts ever heard in New Mex
leo. In a subtle way it conveyed the
impression that Judge Fall was out
lining on behalf of Gov. Curry his
idea as to what constituted good gov
eminent and of the policies to be pur-
sued by him.
Judge Fall spoke openly and frank
ly He deplored the recent political
conflict as one of the most injuri-
Gus things to the territory of New
Mexico in its entire history and he
expressed the hope that the people or
New Mexico would rally to the sup
port of the new governor, laying aside
political quarrels and factional differ
ences, and that they would work for
one end, namely the advancement OF
the territory of New Mexico, its In
dustries and its Developments and for
good government. He paid high
tribute to President Roosevelt, ana
he severely. scored the people and the
press that has precipitated the recent
uncalled for attack upon the repub-
lican party and the republican lead
ers.
Curry is Qualified.
He reviewed the life of George
Curry i'm this territory, in the army
and in civil service in the Philippine
Islands and he said: IF George Cur
~ has not the qualifications for a
governor of New Mexico, in God S
name what is required Of a governor
of New MeXico!"
He said that he felt and that he
believed the people felt that George
Curry is the man for the place and
that his administration will be an alb
solute success in every way.

GOVERNOR CURRY
Tells HIS PLANS

The new governor George Curry,
gave the following interview TO a
Citizen representative this morning:
'"The only instruction / received
from President Roosevelt on the &C.
casion of my recent visit to oyster
Bay was to do all in my power to
give the people OF New Mexico an
honest, economical business admins
tration.
II will support the administration
of President Roosevelt and carry out
his policies to the very best of my
ability. In view of the present po-
litical conditions In this territory,
with which / have not yet had time
to thoroughly familiarize myself, |
do not care to make more extended
statement at this time. L think 1t
will be on the whole better for me
to let the people judge me by my
actions rather than by my words.
''I hope that the people of New
Mexico and especially the press, will
drop personal and local grievances
and that we may all work for the
advancement of the territory. In my
opinion, political strife and dissatss-
faction may retard statehood, which
is greatly to be desired. l am In
favor of single ttfttehood for New
Mexico If 1t can be secured but Will
accept joint statehood with Arizona
in preference to none at all. | diu
not DISCUSS SIalenOOQ WIN lne pTtSl-
dent upon my recent visit, but / in
tend to make a trip to Washington
later, probably at the reconveniTg of
the next congress, to try to get
statehood bill through. There are
few senators and congressman now
in the national capital
No Changes at Present.
When asked II he contemplated
making changes among territorial
officials, the governor said There
will be no changes for the present at
least; later there probably will be
several. I intend to proceed very
slowly in the matter since 1 think
that is advisable. If I feel that there
are any territorial officials, who are
not in harmony with the administrG-
ton, shall possibly make changes;
but l intend to keep the boards of
control of the different territorial in
stitutons entirely nonpartisan having
in view the best interests of the in
stitutions, first, last and all the time.
"I shall appoint republicans to Of
fee where possible, but / shall en-
deavor above all things to appoint
good, honest and competent officials.
