Madrid. Sept 17-Tb ere are unmis-
taxable signs in CariR st circles that
Spain may soon have to face serious in
ternational troubles as well as the up
rising in Cuba, the Phi uppine Islands
and possibly Porto Rio :. The Carlist
deputies during the pres. mt month took
q determined stand on I ne adoption by
the chamber of the bill providing sup
ft7ies for the Spanish rs ilroads. They
claimed that the money thus approprl-
sted could be better emp Logged IN Cuba
than elsewhere, proteSte q against the
whole policy of the Cover nmenf, imam
rial and political, and I hereby placed
themselves on record befc re the people
as SEEING opposed to all the Ills com
relained of by the sufferin g masses OF
Spain.
Later. when the raflrc ad subsidies
were adopted, the Car list deputies
withdrew in a body from the chamber.
Questioned at the time i 1 the Hobbies
and elsewhere as to the p robaiole atti-
tugie Of the Carlist masses, these depu-
ties did not hesitate 10 sd Y that they
could not guarantee that their adher-
ents in the chamber and elsewhere
would not take to the mo lntains, and
raise once more the standard OF Don
Carlos, If patriotism demands it.
PERFECTLY ORGANIZED.
In fact. one Carlist deputy, Senior
SAM. openly proclaimed that the direc-
ton of the CarliSts was soon TO be in
the hands OF their military leaders, ad-
ding that the CarliSts were perfectly
organized in almost every province and
they were prepared to take advantage |
Of any favorable opportunity TO take |
the fild again in support Of their chief |
fain, Don Carlos De Bourbon, Duke Of |
Madrid, who claims to De the rightful |
heir to the throne OF Spain.
Other Carlist deputies publicly ad- |
mitted that they retired from the cham |
Der in order to avoid any responsibility |
for the disasters which they foresaw
were arising as a result of the govern
nent's policy. and it became known /
later that secret instructions Were sent
by the Marquis Cerraibo, the principal
agent Of the pretender, to the Carlist
throughout Spain, notify
ing them to prepare for a call TO arms
|
for reasserting the rights of Don Carlos
by force of arms.
CARIIST MANIFEST0S.
The Marquis Carbriana who showed
up the municipal corruption of Madrid.
and who was waylaid and nearly killed
FOR his trouble, wrote to the newspapers
declaring that the stand taken by the
Carlists, like that of the republicans. in
1fy1rr ig,c ]
Their achievements of the trooDs 10
Cuba, might be the signal for great and
serious internal struggles.
Then, to cap the climax. the Carlfst |
deputies issued a manifesto explaining
and defending their action in leaving |
The chamber of deputies. and declaring |
that their leader would decide when the
proper moment had arrived to respond |
10 the can Of the nation, which would :
summon them 10 save it.
The manifesto also placed the Car
lists and record as supporting the su-
pren-a-y of tEle church, the throne and :
a parl;anlenr representing all classes,
and advCca ting the freedom of the pro- {
Tnces in administrative and financial I
matters. i

Under ordinary circumstances, that is

I is said that this was what the Car
lists were anticipating as it might have
