LONDON, May IA Berlin dispatch
says that the chief anxiety in government
circles about the situation in Portugal is
not on account of the financial disar-
rangement but the probability of polit-
lcal revolution. 1t is felt in Germany that
che substitution OF republican for mon
archical 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 France has been
openly warned in the British press not to
encourage Republican plots in the penin-
sula. The French would naturally like
to see the royal house of Portugal, one Of
the last regning branches of the Bour-
bon family, driven from the throne.
Spain Might Follow Suit.
This feeling has heen intensified since
the avowal of completely in the Boulan-
ger plot by the Comte de Paris, whose
daughter Is queen of Portugal 1t is not
believed, however, either in Berlin or
London that Spain, now under Con-
sentative ministry, would tolerate the ex-
istence of republic in Portugal, which
would be ade the base for a similar
movement at Madrid. On the other hand,
it is suggested that, upon Spanish inter
ference after the establistme of de
facto republican government at Lisbon.
France would at once interfere in behalf
of the Portuguese. Altogether, the stu
