Moorish government settles US indemnity over Moroccan murder
A message from US Consul Gommery at Tangiers says the Moorish government has settled the indemnity claim for the murder of Manus Esczagui, a naturalized American citizen. The case rested on the state's failure to arrest or punish the killers despite the victim's American status. A naval vessel was being considered to back US demands. In Madrid, the Spanish naval bill faced a setback as the chamber passed a resolution against the government by 117 to 116, potentially prompting a ministerial resignation or withdrawal from the cabinet.
