MARIANA NOW
PLANNING ATTACK
Spanish Commander Aims to
Assume Offensive Within
Next Ten Days.

Melnla. Aug. 24-GeneraI Mariana, COM
mander of the Spanish forces, said today
that he planned to assume the offensive
within ten days. 1t is evident that he
feels keenly his responsibility, knowing
that far more depends upon the next
movement than the actual success or
failure of the military operations against
the MoOrs.
The events of the next few weeks here
may fix the fate of the dynasty. A re-
verse might prove fatal, hence General
Marina is wisely leaving nothing 10
chance When he moves he will be at the
head of a force so strong that the Riffs

otherwise would be largely increased.
''Fraternal insurance is another sub

very great number of associations,
styling themselves frsternal, whose

which exist only TO rob those who are
induced by false promises Of rich re-
turns to become members"
