a!ed Press is concerned, neeor.liiiK to a olassir story anions the Wahiri'ton re wsp.iper men. Ib im; entrusted with preparing a message for Pres't l:ooevflt to sitm. -Mr. Jlay, th-n secretary of state, did so, and. as many a public otlirial has done, submitted it to his

friend, the newspaper man, for his. I opinion. ', J "Well, it may be diplomatic but

i he sultan never w ill et you m the midst of all those words." was. in effect, jho newsjaper man's verdict. Then flashed the bright idea, "Why not say what you niean. and: no more, Mr. Secretary, Terdicaris ali or Kaisuli dead. " The secretary aref tl. I'rc.s't ' Rooselt approved. And so it happened that the sultan so far "c;o'L" this stica inct American demand, that he ahandoned the jsual oriental indirettion. and the revul;. while help-; ful to the victims, was "cee dinp.dy ' hard on the sul'tan. For to deliver tlie two Americans llaisuli bad to be appeased with payment of about tive times the ransom he demanded for the London correspondent, ; with appointment of himself as governor of certain areas about Tangier, and release of his bandit friends and imprisonment of some of Iiis enemies. j The bulletin then quote from1 Mr. Perdicaris' own story of his capture, as related in a communica-j tion sent to the National (J'usiaphie society by him shortly after ! his release. Mr. Perdicaris wrote, in part: j nv ion ii:mir.ius. In 194 Umlii Fl Hassan died. This Miiltan was perhaps the abb-st ruler Morocco ever enjoyed. His yotincr son, Alid VA Aziz, nominally succeeded to the thronr upon his father's death, but did not assume the reins of power until he dqcease in lton, of the Ireat Vizier, lien 1 lamed Hen Mous;i. A year or two later an adventurer known as (Jilali Fl Zarhmni. an aiiep;el elder brother of Abd Fl Aziz, and many of the I'.crhers in the neighborhood of Fez rallied around this Fretendrr and even threatened Fez itself. For a short time the sultan's troops were so aroused that many of thern deserted with their arms to the ene.ny. and tlie sultan himself barely escaped capture. The weakening of the sultan's hold upon power was followed by a marked alteration in the attitude of the natives toward foreigners Furopean.- or Americans. I was at the time president of an ;

international commission eharurd with the administration of the town of Tangier; nor did I imagine that I myself would be exposed to' anv immediate dancer. much less'

i that I shmiM be carried off as a ; hostaic1 by the Herbers. or that the' squadrons of oar navy and the or-' ' dcrs of my release in Washington : : would become factors in the imme- ; i morial struggle between the I'.rr- 1 ; bers of Fl Moghercb and the sul- ! i tin of Fez and Morocco.
