PLUNGED INTO MISERY
Widespread Distress in the In
terror of Spain.
FAMINE'S GAUNT SPECTER
Riots at Mula Owing to q Scarcity OF
Food-Working People Idle-No
Plan or Purpose in SPANS
Wal Policy.

London, May 31.-The Madrid CORE
spondent of the Daily Telegraph says:
widespread distress is reported in va
rious parts of the interior. more espe-
cially in the province of Catalonia,
where food prices have risen consider
ably. while a number of working people
have been thrown out of employment.
This week several factories al Maur-
esa. northwest of Barcelona. will have
TO be closed, as a result Of which hum
dreds Of families will be plunged n
misery.
THE local government Is ~endeavor-
ing to alleviate want by opening soup
kitchens. According to a dispatch from
Murcia, capital of the province of that
name, riots occurred yesterday (Sun-
day) in the city Of Mula owing to the
scarcity of food. especially bread. De-
tails of the outbreaks have not yet been
received. but 1t is known that the local
authorities and a number OF wealthy in
d%ividuals have arranged to have cheap
bread baked for the poor.
The views of a considerable number
of Spaniards respecting the conduc or
the war are expressed by Ell Naccional
as follows: Without plan, without pur-
pose. without earnestness. we are fritz
tering away the one advantage which
the enemy's lack of military education
gave us. We neither boldly take the
offensive nor confine ourselves strictly
TO the defensive. Admiral Cervera DIS
plays a system of strategy which war
rants the belief that we are making
ready for a p~rotracted war, so as to tire
out the enemy, but Captain Aunon,
minister Of marine. with his usual breez-
mess, declares that he cannot prolong
the conflict"
