The Spanish expedition was reconnoiter-
ing in the direction of Sokel Jemis, The
Moors at first retired before the Spanish
advance. which was sustained by artillery,
but they gradually reformed behind the
heights Of Argan and Mont Million. and
when the Spaniards entered the rocky
defiles below their position, where the
horses could hardly keep their footing,
they were attacked furiously.
GEN. vICARIo KILLED.
The column under Gen. Vicario, which
was in advance. received orders to re-
/ tire and the movement was being &C.
| conplished in good order under cover
of the field machine guns when Gen. VII

horse. Gen. Tovas then took command
and after fierce fighting the Moors were
beaten off. The entire expedition retired
to Zeluan.
