THE MOROCCAN SITUATION.

Melilia- July 31.-Although heavy artillery mounted upon the forts con tinued to throw projectiles against the Moorish stronghold on Mount Gurugu. the situation is comparatively quiet In spite of the overwhelming heat and fatigue of battle the health of the Spanish troops continues excellent.
 The inhabitants Of this city have opened their houses to the wounded Spaniards. Among the natives there is d rumor that Roghi, the powerful Moroccan chief, is coming to pacify the tribesmen. but this is doubted. A train transporting engineers was de- railed and attacked by MoOrs near Me lila, but they were rcpulsed with loss.
 General Marina is planning. when achievements come, to make a grand march to Zelouan, in the interior The Moors, it is declared, are lacking in food and munitions and were forced to desist in their attacks and withdraw to the lead mines to make bullets.

ADMITTED BURGLARY
 SUSPECTED OF MURDER
He Had at Least had Possession of Victims Jewelry.

Seattle, July 31.-Peter Miller, held by the police on suspicion of having murdered and robbed Hugh McMahon a bartender in this city on Nov. 26, 1908, has confessed to the police that he robbed houses here when arrested for burglary and the police will con- tinue their efforts to prove that he killed McMahOn.
 McMahons body was found in the early morning in the front yard next to that in which he lived. He had been garrotted so successfully that no mark of violence was found and the cOroners inquest decided he died of uraemic poisoning. But McMahOn's Jewelry and money were gone and an autopsy was insisted upon, which re- vea1ed murder.
 The jewelry was pawned in Spo- kane and two pawn brokers from that city this week identified Miller as the pawner. The writing on the pawn tickets also identified him.
 Confronted by the evidence. Miller admitted pawning the jewelry, but said he got it rom Charels Smith and George Rose, known as Biudge, and for whom the police are search ing. Miller, among whose effects were found a number of socialist books, says he was formerly a so- cialist street preacher.

 Summers had the advantage in the succeeding rounds, and when the gong rang for the ninth he attacked Britt furiously, raining blows upon his body and face. The American was worn down and finally dropped flat on his back and was counted out. Freddie Welsh challenged the winner.

As to the Cost of Peace Els timated by Human Lives. Ten Courts Martial Kept Busy -Spaniards Wear ing Out the Tribesmen.

Madrid. Spain, July 31.-The govern ments silence as to the loss of life at Barcelona is still unbroken and no statement is vouchsafed giving an eX- act and adequate idea of the bloody in- cidents attending the repression of the revolution. Tonight's summary of the situation shows that conditions at Bar celona are greatly improved and the belief prevails here that by tomorrow all will be over.
 No information as to the number of revOlutionists court-martialed and shot has reached Madrid. Throughout Cat alonia the situation is decidedly calmer and reports from other parts of the country bring news of a similar i'm proVement in conditions.
 At Melilla the Moors are actively preparing for a new attack upon the Spaniards, but General Marina has been instructed that as soon as the big army is concentrated to assume the offensive. march out of Melilla and strike decisive blow.

4 COMPLEX MOVEMENT
Many Handsome Buildings and Offices Were Dam aged There and Else where Thirteen Shocks Recorded in 30 Hours.

Mexico City, July 31-Mexico City again was severely shaken by an earthquake today. A shock more se- we're than any yet experienced. rocked the city for one minute and forty seconds. The first faint swaying came at 12:43, but the nervous people needed nothing more than the slight est tremble to send them pouring out of the stores, office buildings and dwellings into the streets The shock attained great intensity at the end of the first thirty seconds and sud denly shifted the direction of it's mo- ton. It began with a long swaying north to south oscillatory motion which changed to a pumping action. No great damage was done. though many walls weakened by the three shocks of yesterday fell while many public buildings were cracked.
 The national palace suffered con siderably. The war office, chamber of ambassadors and other sections of handsome buildings were damaged The National Life Insurance com pany building, the Stillwell building and the Cathedral were among the large edifices the walls of which suffered.
 At Acapulco, the custOmhOuse with it's warehouse, military barracks and a number of other prominent build ings were absolutely destroyed, while the municipal palace suffered serious damage.
 Thirteen earthquakes within thirty hours have been registered by the government seismOgraph at Acubaya. From the time the earth began to move in the valley yesterday morn ing at 7:14 o'clock until the quivers ceased at 12:45 o'clock today, Mexico City has been shaken at intervals of every two or three hours. Six up heavals have been of such strength as to be felt by the people while seven others have been felt only by the sen sitive instrument at the seismOgrdph station.
