Tangier, Aug. 12.—The holy war In Morocco has begun. From an Insur rectlon and protest by arms against being disciplined for murders, the trou ble at Casa, Blanca resulted from general campaign against Invasions by Europeans, and armed fanatical Arabs, fearless and conAdent In their faith, are making attempts against General Drude. Fearful slaughter Is In progress. Ma chine guns Inflict fearful losses on the Arabs. Invariably, however, the tribesmen rally after a repulse and come back for more. General Drude has asked for rein forcements. declaring that with his present force of 2,000 men his position Is untenable. The number of the tribesmen Is Increasing rapidly. Cour iers are going about calling the Inhab itants to war. The response Is Im mediate. It Is likely that the war will spread throughout Morocco and event ually further. ground Covered With Dead. The Arabs made a determined at tack on General Drbde’s forces yester day. Mounted on horses the tribesmen executed a picturesque, barbarlous ma neuver, and then charged the French troops, being reinforced by foot sol dlery and bushwhackers. A fierce en gagement ensued. Marine guns poured an awful fire Into the natives. The loss was heavy. Dead Arabs are strewn all over the ground and the fighting has kept up so Insistently that time has not been found to bury or cremate the dead. Details of the looting during the lat ter part of the wek'are coming out. The fighting Is beyond the descriptions sent In the meager reporta Women and Children Killed, One correspondent says that the Spaniards first began looting, each man guarding his own shop and pillag ing his neighbors. Then the Hebrews crept out of their places of hiding, looting wherever they could. When these had distributed throughout the city, the ruin was complete. Not even the San Francisco earthquake left the scenes of horror that Casa Blanca pre sented. The Arabs also seemed possessed with lust and the plunder-frenzy and the wanton desire for destruction of property and hordes of them went through houses, destroying, burning, murdering. Women and children were killed and In many instances the Arabs Clashed over booty. Many corpses with great bullet wounds attest to the ac tion of the long Arabian rifle at close range. The attempt to follow the tribesmen and rescue 20J Hebrew girls, who were carried off, has been abandoned tem porarily, for the troops have all they can do to hold their own position without attacking. Young Men’s Prohibition League. There wl)l be a meeting of the Young Men’s Prohibition League at 512 Pru dential building Monday evening at S o'clock sharp. All members are urged to be present, as very Important busi ness Is to be brought up. BUSY WEEK AHEAD IF ASSEMBLY WOULD COMPLETE WORK House Faces Several Im portant Bills This Week. .With only six more days of the pres ent fifty days’ session remaining, the lower house of the general assembly convened Monday morning with more Important measures demanding consid eration than ever a Georgia legislature faced In one week before. Realizing that an extra session was Inevitable unless a whirl-wind finish was made, the house put on tho high speed gear last week and went through the general tax act and the general ap propriation bill In about one-third of the time that is usually demoted to their consideration. Should no hitch In the program arise during the present week and should no lengthy dobate ensue during the dis cussion ef the pending measures, the house probably will be able to dispose of the Important measures which are demanding consideration. Among theso are the disfranchisement bill, the bill to enlarge the powers and Increase the number of the railroad commission, tho general deficiency bill and the bill to Increase the fee for fertilizer Inspec tion. The house takes up the disfranchise ment bill Monday, as It has already passed the senate. Of all the measures now pending. It will In all probability precipitate the hardest fight and will meet with the most stubborn opposi tion In the house. Voter’s Qualifications. In addition to the qualifications now required for voting, the bill prescribes that the would-be voter must be eli gible under at least one of the follow Ing provisions: First—All persons who served In any war of the United States, the Confed erate States or the etate of Georgia; or Second—All persons lawfully de scended from any such soldiers; or Third—All persona of good character who understand the duties and obllga tlons of citizenship; or Fourth—All persons who can read correctly and who can write correctly when read to them In the English lan guage any paragraph of the constltu ;ion of the United States or the state of Georgia; or Fifth—Any person who Is the owner of forty acres of land on which he lives; or Sixth—Any person who owns five hundred (500) dollars' worth of prop erty In the state of Georgia as shown by the tax digest. This bill has been recommended for passage by the committee on constltu- tonal amendments. Mr. Hall, bf Bibb, Is opposed to the measure and has a disfranchisement bill which ho asserts will meet the re quirements better than the Wllllams- Felder bill. He asserts that the Dill recommended for passage by the com' mittee will not only disfranchise ne' groes but will prohibit a number of white men In this state from casting their ballots. i , ' Mr. Hall did not press hla bill before the committee but will offer It as a substitute for tho Wllllams-Felder bill and will make a hard fight for It In the house. ■> * • It Is generally believed that the bill os recommended by the committee will ultimately pass the house, but the dis cussion of It may last through Tues day. From the length of time which the house has wrangled over other con tested bills, It eoema proboblo that an extra session may be necessary If all the Important measures are disposed of, unless the pace set last week Is maintained until next Saturday night.

Evansville, Ind., Aug. 12.—The east side of the city Is In a turmoil over an assault attempted at 1 o'clock Sunday morning on two girls, Clara Iplofen, age 18, and Amelia Walllon, age 17, by William Kinney, who.

The two young couples were going home from o party, Kinney, who was In hiding behind a tree, sprang behind Fred Bennett and felled him with the butt end of a revolver. Then as young Bennett regained his feet Kinney whipped out another gun and made the brothers take to their heels. Kinney grabbed the frail girls by the arms and started to drag them int.0 the woods close by the road. They fought with their hands and teeth and screamed. Amelia Walllon, the younger girl, finally tore loose from Kinney’s grasp but he drew his revolv er on her and made her stop. Mean while Miss Iplofen picked up a handful of dust' which she courageously threw Into Kinney's oyes and blinded him. Screaming at the top of their voices, the girls fled to the home of Mrs. Bet- nett, mother of the two boys. The girls begged her to protect them from Kinney, who followed them. Mrs. Ben nett opened fire on Kinney, but her five shots missed their mark. Kin ney ran at the first shot and has not been captured. , IS, TOEFFECTMBI Organization to Cope With Lawyers of the Trusts.

The highest dignitary of the Catholic church, who Is resting at Southamp ton, L. I., expressed himself as follows; “As a remedy for the crime wave now sweeping through New York city, I would suggest that penalties bo im posed that will be commensurate with the crime. The principal preventive to such sentences being Imposed to bo carried out lies In the fact that able.
