From tie, Madrid Gazette Extraordinary
Thursday, March 81, 1903
The issue of the suit carried on at the Es-
curiaih has not been published, notwithstanding
the decree of S0th Oct. last: and his majes-
ity being DESTROYS that all his ccbjects should
be acquainted with the proceedings against
his rGval person who interfered in those oc-
cur.ences, has ordered summary Of the
same to be made out, from the documents re-
lative thereto, found among the papers of the
Prince of Peace, which summary is as fol-
lows:
On the oath Octoberlast, the ex monarch
Charles ~. delivered to the marquis Cabal
Zero, secretary of the department OF
favour and justice, some papers which he
said lie had found amongst those of the prince
OF Asturias, our actual sovereign. They
consist of little book of twelve leaves, ano-
thcr of FIVE and half, both in his hand wri-
ting letter dated Tailavora, 28th of May,
| in an unknown hand and without signature
a key to tie same with rules to write in cy-
pher half page in numbers, cyphers and
names, and note without a signature.
The little book of twelve leaves is repre-
sentation tending to manifest with the great
est respect to the king, (father) the whole
life and notorious errors of Don Manuel Co
doy, prince of Peace. In it are depicted all
his actions, fortune, pride and despotism
since the DAYS of his chi dhood; init his ma
esty Begged of his august father, that he
would deign to ';ring him to an account, when
In his presence he Nigh. inform himself, by
calling on persons deserving Of his greatest
confidence or any others whom chance Nigh;
throw in the way, respecting the affairs Which
he represented to him. and by this means
| he would be sndeceived, anti discover tie
truth confirmed in that paper; that he ought
to remove him from his person, by conhnine
him and his family wherever he might think
proper; and by these merely precautionary
measures, he would convince himself of how
much he was beloved by his people, who
would by acclamations of JOY testify their APP
| probation Of such measures. There are
many more reflections bearing to the purpose
and to the bcpeiit Of the nation, which are o.
ritted, as the above may suffice to convey a
correct idea of It's contents. BUTT must be
observed that he begged of the king, his IA
| tIer, thatjn case he did not approve of the
measures proposed, he would not discove,
them on account of the danger to which hi:
| life might be exposed.
The paper consisting of Eve leaves, prin-
! cipally treated under fictitious names, of the
manner Of resting r connection proposed t.
him, and in no wise suited on account Of the
present circumstances Of the times.
| The letter dated Talavera, is from Don
| Juan Escoiquiz, late canon and digntary o
| the church Of TOLEDO, late prcceptor to hi,
! (reigning) majesty, in reply to several qves
| tons which he had proposed--the cyphcr and
key they made use of in writing to each o.
| ther sometimes concerning the same business
and lastly the note was from a former do
mestic of his majesty but in no manner ha!
it Connected with the present affairs.
I On the 2oth October, about half past ~
TIE afternoon, there were convened in the a
Epartment Of the king, Gathcr,) the secreta
ries Of the departments. and the temporary
president ofthe council, and his majesty WIT
lnow reigns, being called mon, was asked fo
