MADRID. June 9.-Prenier Canalejas
has informed the chamber of deputies
that Spain's projected military operations
at El-Araish. Morocco, were not incon-
sistent with the treaty of Algeciras or
other agreements. II was necessary. he
said. for Spain to restore and preserve
order in that part of Morocco.

been killed or maltreated by rebellious
tribesmen.

ment is concerned over the Spanish activ-
tiles in Morocco, especially at time
when France. having attained the relief
OF Fez. intends TO withdraw her troops

the country. Spain. seemingly, is deter
mined to extend her zone in Morocco,
which is now limited 10 MeNll and Ceuta

Madrid, is representing to the Spanish
government the untimeliness of further
military enterprise In the troubled sui
tanry. endangering the confidence of
the powers in the maintenance OF MorOc-
can unity since some power might de-
clare that Morocco was being dismember-
ed, and the powers were no longer
bound by the Algeciras agreement. but
each free to act according to its own in
terests In reference to Morocco.

PRESIDENT EAVORS Plan
TO KEEP RIVER IN BOUNDS
Will Ask Appropriation of
$1,000, 600 to Repair Break
in c0l0rad0'S Banks.

President Taft has decided to send a
special message to Congress asking for
an appropriation of about 81 .OOO. 600 to
rush the work Of closing the break now
existing in the banks Of the Colorado
river where the floods are pouring into
old Mexico
The decision regarding this work is
the result of a conference that a number
Of expert irrigation engineers have been
holding at the Interior Department this
week The immediate benefit of the work
will be to old Mexico. though the present
break in the Colorado Is doing little ma
terial damage there. but the ultimate OBJ
ject is to protect the Imperial valley in
southern California from q repetition of
the great flood three years ago that par
TALLY filled In the Salton sink and ruined
thousands Of acres Of farm land in the
valley.
Stream Is Unmanageable.
The Colorado is an unmanageable
stream. and when 1t gets out of bounds
plays queer pranks, owing to the ma
ture Of the country. The valley to the
west of the Colorado is at its lowest
point, more than 800 feet lower than
the O0Q OF the COlOranO. Wnen a Dredk
occurs in the west bank of the river
the food pours west for a little dis
tance and then turns north. though
the normal course Of the river is south,
and runs into the old dry Salton sea.
II this had continued when the river
broke its banks several years ago. it
would have made an inland sea about
the sire of LAKE Michigan before the
water was high enough to flow south
again into the Gulf of California.
This last flood kept up for two years
before the break was closed and caused
immense damage. The break in the
banks was finally closed by the engineers
the most spectacular pieces of engineer
ing work ever done.
To protect American soil against
repetition Of this disaster this country
with the consent of Mexico built sys-
tenn of levees along the west bank of
the river in old Mexico. The work was
done by the engineer officers of the
army, and 1t was one of these levees
that was recently carried out by the
high water and will necessitate a renewal
of the work
The confeTees who recommended an ap
preparation to complete the project were
Gen. W. l.. NJ. Marshall. formerly chief
of engineers, u. S. A.; Gen. Harrison
Gray Otis Of Los Angeles. president OF
the Colorado River Land Company: Col.
J. A. Ockerson Of St. Louis, C.. L. Grun-
sky. formerly of the Panama canal COM
mission; j. B. Lippincott. water supply
