MOODS ROUTED
BY SUDDEN MOVE
from General Drude, commanding the
French troops at Casa Blanca:
"I am pleased to notify you that,
thanks to a land fog. we hfve been
able to surprise the Moroccan camp at
Taddert. which was burned. The Moors
were dispersed and fled to the hills, fol
lowed by the shells of our artillery and
effective projectiles from the Gloire. On
our side one man was killed and six
were Injured."

CASA BLANCA, Sept. 12. (Wednesday.)
The allied French-Spanish army today
made a sudden and successful move on
Taddert, where the Moors were massed
In force. The camp of the latter was de
stroyed by bombardment and the enemy
was put to flight, leaving many dead on
the field. The French lost one man killed
and six wounded.
The attack was carefully planned and
was based largely on the observations of
the Moors' positions from a military
balloon. The allied army, which Was
divided into two columns, left the camp
at 8 o'clock In the morning, leaving
several companies of Infantry to defend
the base of Casa Blanca. The first
column was composed of four companies
of regular infantry, several companies of
sharpshooters, a battery of artillery and
all the cavalry. The second column con
sisted of six companies of infantry and
a battery of artilery. The march was
skilfully carried out under the cover of
a fog, until half way to Taddert, when
the fog lifted and disclosed several large
bands of the enemy.
The allies then charged several large
bands of the enemy at the point of the
bayonet and, although the Moors resisted
with their old-time courage, they were
finally compelled to retreat in the face
of a superior force and both of the
columns of the allied troops advanced cn
Taddert. After the bombardment of that
place by the French artillery as well as
by the guns of the French cruiser Gloire,
which fired 75 shells, the allied Infantry
advanced on the Moorish camp, where the
enemy was making a last desperate stand.
A short engagement followed and the
Moors fled in wild disorder, pursued
for several miles by the regular Algerian
cavalry In the French service. The
Moorish camp was completely destroyed.
The exact loss of the Moors Is not known,
as they carried away many of their dead.
When the Moors saw their camp in
flames, they set fire to all the farms and
woods they could reach and the surround
ing country was covered with smoke and
flames.
The Moors endeavored to circle rapidly
in front of the advancing troops, with
the object of cutting ofT and surrounding
a section of the allied forces, but the at
tempt utterly failed, largely on account
of the rapid advance, which seemed to
puzzle the Moors. When assailed from a
long line of troops, the Moors retreated
from the front, where many of them fell
under the accurate fire of the field ar
tillery and the guns of the Gloire.

Drude Is "Pleased to Notify."
PARIS. Sept. 11 War Minister Ptcquart
today received the following dispatch
REFERRED TO REFERENDUM
Chicago Telephone Company's Fran
chlso Laid Over.
CHICAGO. Sept. 12. At the special
meeting of the City Council this after
noon, called for the purpose of taking
action on the proposed extension of the
Chicago Telephone Company's fran
chise. Alderman L. H. Young, chair
man of the gas, oil and electric light
committee, declined to call the subject
up. He said:
"On September 3 our committee pre
sented a report to the City Council.
The report is based on decisions
reached by the committee in its 20
months of toil, and it was my idea that
the ordinance presented was a fair
and Just one. It was my purpose to
call it up today and put it on Its pas
sage; but. in view of the unfair and
unJUHt criticism of this ordinance in
the public press and by citizens, I con
cluded that the people should have an
opportunity to study the ordinance and
to pass on its merits. For that reason
I will not call it up 'for consideration
by the Council today."
The next regular meeting of th City
Council will occur on September 23.
In the meantime, on September 17, the
popular vote on a new charter for the
City of Chicago will be held. In the
event of the adoption of the charter,
the question of extension of the fran
chise to the telephone company will
have- to be submitted to a referendum
vote, under a provision of the charter
governing public utilities.
Will Not Hurry Appointments.
SALEM, Or., Sept. 12. (Special.) There
will be no meeting of the State Board
this week or next week either, so far as
Secretary of State Benson knows, for the
purpose of naming successors to the su
perintendent of the Insane asylum, reform
school or Master Fish Warden Vandusen.
He says he has had no consultation with
State Treasurer Steel upon the subjec?
for many weeks and no appointment has
been made for such conference, and it
may be several weeks more before any
thing of a definite nature develops along
that line.
Secreary Benson has gained considera
ble In weight as a result of his outing.
Palma Has Quit Politics.
HAVANA, Sept. 12. Ex-President of
Cuba Palma. who is living on his estate
at Bayamo, states that he Is keeping aloof
from politics and Is devoting all his time
to agricultural Interests. He also de
clared that he was equally apart from all
parties, and this statement is regarded
here as of some Importance, as the con
servatives have sent his salutations from
nil their meeting.
