Ripe for ReyoIution.

Oabe special.
King Alfonso this afternoon telegraphed to the
Duke de MOntpensier that the disturbances
throughout Spain were suppressed, and quiet
now reigned. While there can be no doubt that
so far as the recent tronbles amounted to a
military uprising themovement has practically
collapsed, still, politically, matters in Spain are
In a very bad shape. The Carlist feeling has
long been nursed. and it is now in dangerous
condition. Recent events IN the Spanish capital
have so embittered the adherents of Don Carlos
against the reigning King that if no actual revo-
luton occurs, the assassination of Alfonso,
while it is not actually looked for, may
transpire at any moment, and would oc-
casion no very great surprise. The Car
lists have the active sympathy of the Social
lists throughout Europe. Socialism per-
vades the Spanish soldiery and the Spanish
militia TO an alarming degree. The small upIls-
lngs That nave been going on throughout the
country during the past week were all nsti gated
by Socialists The Spanish events of the week
were all accurately fOretOd weeks ago by the
Socialist organ published in Geneva. To the
close observer of Spanish affairs il is apparent
that the Spaniards are sufficiently diseontent ted
and socialislic as TO be quite ripe for revolution
All they lack is organization under a competent
leader. Rulz Gorilla has been the prime mover
IN all TINS discomfort, which he has been fOment-
ing undoubtedly for the purpose of crystallzng
1t and directing IL against the throne. The rur-
bulence, however. vented itself in spasmodic
eruptOns before the time Zorllla intended to
make his strike, and during his absence
SO That the district risings were ineffec
tive, because unorganized, and the
whole trOnhle has apparently ended for
the present in sort OF national tremor, fright
full IN its porteDt, but without result as a revo-
)ution. Gorilla started for Spain at the news of
the first outbreak, but was TOO late to organize
anything like well defiued movement. The
people in the north of Spain still in state of
ferlneDt, and may yet organize and put down the
local authorities. When Don Carlos was in Lon
don recently 1t was known that he bought large
| supplies of arms, principally old-fashiOned En-
field rifles ana large stores of ammnnitiOn and
shipped them out of England. The Entieids he
procured from the British war-Offiee. The pre-
tender, it Is also known. secured the pledge OF
services from many retired English officers, and
some OF these have gone to Spain. Many of the
English newspapers believe that the present up-
risings throughout Spain are merely premonito-
ry OF II general revolution which is being well
prepared, and which will soon take the shape OF
q general rebellion against the throne.
