NOTORIOUS BARBARY COAST Made Famoue In Present Generation by Operations of the Chieftain Mulal Ahmed Raleull—Recalls Famous Pericardia Case. Madrid.—That part of Morocco called the Spanish zone, 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 Barhary 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 hy the operations of the chieftain, Mulal Ahmed er-Kal- sull, who captured and held for ran- som Ion Perdlcarls, an American cltl- cen, in 1900. Tills was in the admin- istration of President Roosevelt and evoked from Secretary Hay the his- toric phrase demanding \Perdlcarls alive or Italsull dead!\ It resulted In the almost Immediate release of Per- dlcarls. Three Races In Land. Throe races inhabit Morocco, the original Berbers, or mountaineers, who conquered Spain on three, differ- ent occasions; the mixed race of Arabs nnd Iterbers known as Moors j both of which rnces are generally Mo- | hnmmedans; and the colonies of Jews which' Inhabit the coast cities and control the majority of the country's commerce. The Spanish zone, where tho fight- ing Is now in progress, Is a narrow strip of land nlong the northwestern const fronting on the Mediterranean sea. It extends from Algeria, under control of the French, to the Atlsntlc ocean on the west. It does not, 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, hut 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 Sp^iln tins been engaged at Intervals ; In nporadlc attempts to maintain her authority, with varying success and failure. Want More Order. Both the French and Spanish goT- ernments decided In January, 1920, to ] mnke military demonstrations In their ! respective zones for the purpose of | preparing the way to more orderly government. The French zone was- soon piK'ltleil. The Spanish l»rrl(ory, which Is administered hy Qen. llama- MO Herenguer as high commissioner, was not so submissive. Spanish troops at first made their base on the Atlantic coast of Morocco at KI-ArlRh, also known as Lnralche. From there they penetrated well Into the Interior nnd captured a number of Moorish strongholds, Including .the so- CeUed secret city of Sheshawan. For some time little activity has been re- ported In that western district of Mo- rocco. The Spaniards, however, gent an- other expedition under the command of General Sllvestre, who established a base at MellJIa, midway on a prom- ontory which extends from the east- ern end of the Spanish zone north- ward Into the Mediterranean. From Hint point, Qenarsl Sllvestre's troops attempted to penetrate soothwsrd Into the Interior. Early successes were reported, but last spring the Span- lards encountered strong untlvo troops and hostile tribesmen, estimated to Dumber '-'O.OOO anil said to bp well armed snd equipped with artillery. The present reverses of the Spanish forces hud their beginning early In June.
