Battle Was Shambles

MELILLA, Morocco, July 29.-The
battleship Numancia has been hastily
dispatched to Alhucemas, around which
the tribesmen are concentrating for an
attack. The Moors outside of this
place have been reinforced by 5000
men.
The Spanish forces are well-nigh ex-
hausted, but are hoping aid soon will
reach them.
Tuesdays battle was a shambles,
and as a result the Moors abandoned
their positions on the Spanish right
flank and retreated to the other side
of Mount Gurugu. The greatest hero
ism was shown by the officers who led
the troops up the hillside. They were
the first to fall from Moorish bullets.
General Pintos was slain at the mo-
ment he attained the summit and a
lieutenant colonel fell, pierced by bull
let while in the act of Offering his water
gourd to a dying soldier. The Spanish
dead were buried in the mining eXca-
vations leading to Mount Gurugu.

REVOLUTIONARY ELEMENT is
IN CONTROL OF BARCELONA

BIARRITZ (near Spanish frontier),
July 29.-The desperate condition of af-
fairs in Barcelona is shown in reports
received here from the disturbed city.
These show that the revolutionary ele-
ment holds the upper hand. The gov
ernment troops finding themselves in
sufficient to retake the revolutionary
stronghold, have been forced to aban-
don several quarters, leaving the revo-
lutionists in control. The streets of the
citv are barricaded with huge piles of
stone and earth Furniture and planlis
are heaped in these barricades to the
height of the first story.
The arrival of reinforcements so ur-
gently needed by the government is
retarded by the discrimination of rail-
roads and avenues of communication
leading to the city. The reVolutionists
are armed with muskets, knives and re-
voIvers. They have an efficient or
ganization. With the arrival of reEi-
ment which the government succeeded
m getting through yesterday the inhab-
Itants were notified to keep indoors FOR
,he succeeding fourteen hours.
The peaceably disposed needed this,
while the artillery of the government
'orces raked the streets where the bar
ricades have been erected, causing
great havoc, and in some cases de-

REvoLUTIoNIsTs CAUSE MUCH
APPREHENSION IN MOROCCO

LONDON, July 29.-News reaching
this city by way of Biarritz discloses
the difficulties with which the Spanish
government is confronted in dealing
with the disorders in Catalonia and the
other disturbed provinces while carry
ing on a war in Morocco.
Catalonia's garrisons have been drawn
on for service in Morocco until the
total number of troops in this province,
always the hotbed of revolutionary
propaganda, number but 5000 men, di-
vided into small detachments located
far apart -,

ceeded in effecting cooperation with
the workingmen's organizations nave N
torn I'D miles of railroad tracks be-
tween Madrid and Barcelona, cut
trenches across the railway embank-
ments in the country districts and de-
stroyed many bridges and Viaducts.
| Fierce engagements are in progress In
| Barcelona. The artillery has been USED
against the barricades, but the troops
| have made little progress in quelling
the revolt. The government forces

Obliged to be on the defensive, attack

under orders to remain in doors.
The terror stricken people are fleeing
from the larger towns to the open
country and the small villages where
| there is less exposure to danger
The situation is complicated by the
spread of the general strike ordered by
the labor organizations of Barcelona
two days ago. The indications are that
the strike will spread to the provinces
of I.erida. Corona and Tarragona, but
no definite news has been received from
these points. A special dispatch from
Gibraltar says all Spanish batteries
stationed in that vicinity havesreceived
hurry orders to embark for Melilla.
The embarkation of the troops is now
proceeding. More than 100 wounded
Spaniards were landed this morning
and taken to hospitals.

consideration to the subject and has
reached the conclusion that 1t would be
quite unwlse, If not impossible, to make
further concessions.
He SAYS if his terms are accepted he
will exert his influence in both houses
of congress to have the conference re-
port accepted, but If these various
schedules are not adjusted in &C
cordance with his suggestions, he
would feel called on to reject the bill
when sent to him. The deadlock over
these provisions has brought to the
surface the fact that there is very
sharp difference of opinion between the
president and Speaker Cannon.
Speaker Antaeonized
The speaker has been represented to
the president as saying that II the plll
did not take proper care of gloves, no
rule for the adoption of the conference
report could be favorably acted on by
the house. President Taft understood
perfectly he was directly antagonlzlng
the speaker when he wrote his letter
to the conferees.
When at 1856 p. m. the conference
took a recess until 2:90 the deadlock
had not been broken.
n was announced the lumber rate
was settled yesterday and that so far
as the conferees were concerned had
mot been changed. The matter has
been talked over with number OF
western senators, who 1t was stated,
are holding out very strongly for the
high rate.
The conferees also talked over the
question of whether they would have to
adopt the presidents program and 1t
all depended on whether or not they
would be able to get it through either
or both houses.
In the event the glove schedule is fin
ally settled to the satisfaction Of the
nresident. the impression prevails that a
complete agreement on the other sche-
dulles in dispute will be speedily reached
and the report will be ready for sub
mission to the house tomorrow.

Moorish Victory Decisive

PARIS, July 29.-French army Off
GERS familiar with the topography OF
the Riff country consider that the Of
fetal report of the Spanish defeat by
the Moors at Melilla spells complete
disaster, and they would not be sur
prised if the next news told of the fall
of the city.
They say the tribesmen evidently
succeeded in descending from Mount
Gurugu and cutting in half the Span
ish front which was four miles long,
extending from the land forts at Me-
lila to the extreme left at Mount Alta
layou, a promontory on the shore OF

off without communication, while the

Mining Notes.

The Ivanhoe company, which owns a
fractional claim adjoining the Star mine
near Mullan on the west, has arranged
with the latter company to develop
Its ground through the Star tunnel.
A strike of four feet of gold galena
and copper ore has just been made on
the property of the Idaho Copper Min
ing company, located near Priest lake,
Idaho. The shipments of ore from the
Ambergris mine will be resumed short
~. The claims of the company are
located north of the Hercules mine at
Burke, Idaho, and are being developed
through the No. level of the latter.
The erection of the Black Horse
mill will be STARTED in few days. The
mill will have an initial capacity of
100 tons, but the crushers and rollers
Will be big enough to handle 400 tons
per day. The mill will be erected along
side of the Idaho Northern railroad at
Paragon, and will be connected with
the mine by a tram.
