S0C0L0FSKY 341 State St. Salem, Oregon One Hundred Dollars Highest Price For Human Being In Morocco MKLILUI. Morrocco, April 2!. Slavery and trading in slaves st'U flcur sh in the ii;iconiiiero1 districts of both the Krencn ana Spanish zones o Morocco. Tlierv have been stories that s me of the slaves are wh'te people biif these reports arc not borne out .'j inquiry. Threats by the turbti'eni Moor.--of the Kill coast to sell m o iiv ery a Spanish sailor boy, Francis co Sallud, unless his faiher with whom he had been wrecked and captured paid a ransom of 4'uw pesetas, Wd the Arabia led Press correspondent to make an inquiry nto the (turst on of the cxImiMiev of enslaved while peop.e in noritij orn Amta. The result of his inquiries shows that of recent yezrs In stances of white people bing b ld into slavery have been very rare, but there are slave markets for the sale and purchase o' colored people in the districts to which French or Spanish rule have not reached. The traffic varies accord ng to the eiTncm c situation of the tribesmen who, when I hey are in funds, do not hesitate to give high prices for slaves to be used as servants. Slaves so purchased become personal property of the family into which Ihey are bought and are disposed of by testament when the proprietor dies. However, it is customary for the purchaser to make formal igreement before a competent le gal authority to grant his slave hia liberty on hia master's death, when the heirs hava to 51 ve up all claim and at the sime time to allow the liberated slave to live on and cultivate any portion ot his dead master's land which may have been lett to him as one o the family. A slave owner may give h slave a wife from among his oth er slaves bought in the name way and the children of these mar riages become slaves or the same owner unless he has signed tte agreernt already mentioned in connection with their parents. The prices paid for slaves vary considerably. Generally the aite is the chief consideration but. girl slaves, beauty calls for the high est prices. Seven hundred and fifty pesetas (about $100 at the present rate of exchange) is about the maximum figure ever paid and this is only in the case o' a, very young and handsome girl. Should the human mer chandise have passed the age of 35 or 40. the price paid is round about 4 00 pesetas, never more. All purchases are made condi tionally on the slaveB proving sat isfactory. A close examination is made of the slave's mouth to see whether lie or she possesses a complete s'?t of teeth. Proofs are required that the slave is neither weak-s'ghted nor deaf and dumb, while limbs are tested and muscles tried and every part of the botiy nubjected to minute in spection in order to discover phy sical defects. For women slaves three days' trial of their domestic aptitudes is demanded before the purchase is completed. Such are the conditions of the slave trade in Morocco at the present day, and this Is the tate from which Francisco Sallud es aped, probably by the payment o' part of the ransom demanded, al though exact information as to the transaction is unavailable TF ARE PERPETRATED Travelers Are Obliged to Pay Large Sums of Money To Swindlers COXSTAXTINrrvLE.

She had already paid $30 for vises of her pass port. " Uefore leaving Constantinople many travelers are obliged to give large sums to get vises which biter .may be declared invalid in i his manner. Since rerugees from Russia are not wanted in other countries, where they may become public charges, few passports are grant ed them otlcially. but they are furnished with proper papers for vume ranging from $20 to $100.

If he declares anything above the equivalent of $70, or some such modest sum, it is taken and a receipt given which he may cash in money of the country on leaving it. Sometimes the inspec tor merely pockets the money, or will take a bribe to let the travel er pioceed with all his cash.
