cisely answered every question that
was put 10 him by the Investigators.
During President Cleveland's ad-
ministration IL was decided that a
bond issue OF $50, 600. 900 was neces-
sary. Morgan undertook the task
and il was noated. He made money,
OF course, That was what he was In
business for. But at that time the
world looked on with wonder at the
ease with which he accomplished

willing 10 undertake.

year he secured the American sub

Of Moorish t-iJesmen was routed with
heavy loss Thursday by the Spanish
troops at Muley Abselam, Spanish Mo-

Spanish military aviators threw the
Moors into disorder with showers of
bombs.
The Spaniards attacked the Moors-
with a brigade of sharp shooters,
battalion of infantry, four batteries OF
artillery and large body of native
auxiliaries.
When the order for the general adj
vance OF the Spanish column was Civ
en-, the advance guard discovered sew
eral thousand Moorish mountaineers
concealed in the irregularities of the
ground
A flotilla of military aviators was
sent up to recOnnoiter. BY means of
flag signals, the aviatOrs guided the
column OF Spanish troops.
A heavy artillery fire was opened
by the Spaniards without effect.
The aviators then assembled to an
altitude out of range of rifle fire and
flew directly over the places where
the MOors were in the greatest num-
bers Then came what the dispatch
TO the Spanish war office describes as
a "VeTitable rain of bombs. tossed by
hand by the airmen in the midst Of
the MoorS."
After this bombardment the Span
ish infantry charged with the bayOnet
and dislOdged the MOOrs from their
positions causing them to flee in
great disorder leaving large numbers
of dead and wounded on the field.
The Spanish troops also lost a con-
siderable number of men, as the rifle
fire of the tribesmen was very accur-
