Madrid. That part of Morocco called the Spanish one, where Spain's troops have just -suffered disastrous reverses at the hands of the Moors with" the loss of thousands of men and thousands of square miles of terri tory, is part of the notorious Barbary coast whose pirates preyed on Euro pean commerce for many years and carried Europeans into slavery. In the present generation it has been made famous by the operations of the chieftain, Mulai Ahmed er-Rai-suli, who captured and held for ran som Ion Perdicaris, tin American citi zen, in 1905. This was in the admin istration of President Roosevelt and evoked from Secretary Hay the his toric phrase demanding "Perdicaris alive or Raisuli dead!" It resulted in the almost immediate release of Per dicaris. " Three Races in Land. . Three races inhabit Morocco, the original Berbers, or mountaineers, who conquered Spain on three differ ent occasions; the mixed race of Arabs and Berbers known as Moors both of which races are generally Mo hammedans; and the colonies of Jews which inhabit the coast cities and control the majority of the country's commerce. ..-.. , The Spanish zone, where the fight ing Is now In progress, is a narrow strip of land along the northwestern coast fronting on the Mediterranean sea. It extends from Algeria,, under control of the French, to the Atlantic ocean on the west. It does vnot, how ever, include the extreme ; northwest ern tip of land, on which is located the city of Tangier." Spanish troops have fought the Moors for centuries, but it was only In 1912 that the northern littoral of Morocco was assigned to Spain under the terms of the Franco-Spanish treaty signed in that year. Since then Spain has been engaged ? at; intervals in sporadic attempts to" maintain her authority, with varying success and failure. Want More Order.
