The rebellious movements of the Republicans
will have the immediate effect of suspending
constitutional guarantees and of investing the
government with the extended powers neces-
sary for the suppression of the insurrection. 1t
is probable that if the bill demanded by the
government is passed the Republican deputies
will be withdrawn from the Cortes.
