A REIGN OF TERROR
Results From Repressive Measures
Adopted in Portugal

LONDON, August A dispatch to
the Daily Mail from Madrid describes
a very grave state of affairs in Portugal.
According to this correspondent the
Portuguese government is setting the
constitution at defiance and adopting the
most stringent and repressive measures.
The police, without legal warrants, en-
ter private dwellings at all hours of the
day and night, ransack them, secure
property and march the owners off to
prison on the most trif1ing and unfound-
ed charges. A veritable reign of terror
is established and if the popular belief
that the government contemplates pass
ing its obnoxious financial legisla ton by
means of a coup d'etat.
So severe are the repressive measures
adopted by the government that in the
opinion of the Daily Nails correspon-
dent one is likely to occur.
A dispatch to the Daily Mail from
Rome says that King Humbert is in daily
correspondence with his sister, the
Queen Dowager of Portugal, on the
subject of the present disturbance, and
he has instructed the Italian minister
at Lisbon, Count Gerbaix de Sonnaz, to
render all assistance in his power to the
royal family in case an emergency
should arise. The Italian government
has placed two men of war under special
orders to proceed to Lisbon.

SALMON RUN
There Are More Fish Than the Pack
ers Can Handle

VANCOUVER, B. c., Aug. 3.-The
huge run of salmon on Fraser river con-
tinues and all canneries have placed a
limit on the number to be taken from
each boat Fishermen usually only make
one drift and catches of 200 and 300 fish
are quite common. Six hundred and for
ty-five fish were caught in one drift Mon
day night. A large quantity of salmon is
being salted, and as a result salt has
jumped in price from $11 to SIS per ton.
1t is reported that the representative of
a large English buyer of salmon is now
on the Fraser river investigating the
manner in which salmon are put up in
order to ascertain whether there is any
truth in the report of uncleanliness.
Special inquiry is being made into the
physical condition of the Chinese en-
ployed and the white workmen hope that
as a result of the anticipated report
Chinese labor may be dispensed with.

KANSAS CITY Mo-, Aug. 3.-The hot

a. week was broken this evening. AT 4
o'clock the thermometer stood at 9S de-
grees A few minutes later a heavy rain
storm broke over the city and at o'clock

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Aug. 3-The hot spell

NO SIGN OF RAIN
ST. JOSEPH, Mo-, Aug. 3.-With
the thermometer recording SO degrees in
the shade again today and with no sign
of rain, the farmers are becoming more

English Tennis Experts Seem to Re-
gain Form


NEW YORK, Aug. 3.-There was
brilliant tennis playing in the opening
matches of the international tourna-
ment on the grounds of the ST. George
Cricket club at Hoboken today. The
visiting English experts arrived from
Boston on Sunday night. America is
represented by R. D. Wrenn, champion
of the United States; George Wrenn. the
old Massachusetts champion, and w. A.
Larned, fresh from his laurels at Long
wood. The courts were in prime condi
ton. The American players were not
as successful as had been hoped, Larned
being the only one to defeat his man.
Larned was drawn against Nisbet, the
youngest of the English trio, and though
the latter put up clever game, he was
ultimately beaten by a score of three
sets to one. Larned won the toss and
chose the service, winning the opening
game in four straight points. The
American seemed in splendid form and,
captured four straight games before
Nisbet could pull himself together. The
Englishman won the two following
games. Larned, won the set at g.
Larned played less brilliantly in the
second set He took the fifth and seventh
games, however, which finally left the
score 6-2 in Nisbet'S favor. The two
following sets Larned fairly snapped
himself in smashing and his game had
force and confidence behind it.
The match between Mahoney and G.
L. Wrenn was decided on an adjoining
court, Mahoney winning in three
straight sets. The match between Eaves
and r. D. Wrenn was intensely inter-
esting. The advantages swung back and
forth during five sets, and not until the
last strokes were played was it possible
to predict the result. Wrenn was finally
beaten by score of three sets to two.
