FROM FOREIGNLANDS.
Renewed Fears of Political Revo-
luton in Portugal.
DISCOURAGED BY THE FRENCH

But Spain Would Probably Interfere
In the Event of a Republic Being
fistablished-Furth Particulars
Regarding the Attack on the Gar
owitz-other Gid World Items.
LONDON, May A dispatch from
Berlin says that the chief anxiety in
Government circles about the situation
in Portugal is not on account of the
financial disarrangement,b but tho prob
ability of political revolution. It is felt
in Germany that the substitution Of
republican for monarchial institutions
in Portugal would be greatly to the
benefit of France by making Portugal
an ally of the French republic. The
French government has lately given
strong evidence of sympathy with the
Portuguese, and Franco has been openly
warned in the British press not to en-
courage republican plots in the penin-
sula. The French would naturally like
to see the royal house of Portugal, one
of the last reigning branches of the
Bourbon family, driven from the throne,
and this feeling has been intensified
since the avowal of completely in the
Boulanger plot by the Comte de Paris,
whose daughter is queen of Portugal.
Spain Would Interfere.
It is not believed, however, either in
Berlin or London, that Spain, now un-
der conservative ministry, would toll
crate the existence of republic in Por-
tugal, which would be the base for a
similar movement at Madrid. On the
other hand it is suggested that upon
Spanish interference after the establish
ment of a de facto republican govern
ment at Lisbon France would at once
interfere in behalf of the Portuguese.
Altogether the situation causes no end
OF speculation as to possibilities, and
some recall in this connection that the
pretext for the Franco Prussian war was
found in the affairs of the Spanish pen.
insular.
The Cars Gratitude.
Another dispatch says that Prince
George. Of Greece, is again in high favor
with the czar on account of his defense
of the czarowitz against the attack by
the Japanese fanatic. Prince George
had been under cloud with the Rus
sian court, owing the unfortunate
wrestling bout which resulted in injury

that reason are very bitter against Eu-

the crime was in any way prompted by
European conspirators. The fact is that
the advocates of political change in Rus

sion of the ezarowitz, as he is believed
