LISBON, March lo.-There has been serious

fused to pay the rates and the troops were
called out. The rioters attacked the Court

for the purpose Of making demonstration.
They paraded the streets, stoning windows
The mob swelled to 10000 persons and ter
rorized the town. They attacked the Court
Of Justice and smashed the windows. The
police were powerless.
The rioters prevented peasants from
bringing produce to the market and did
not allow butchers to slaughter. They
compelled the closing Of factories. invaded
the schools and university and forced
the students to leave their studies. They
threatened to murder the rate collectors
and other officials, many Of whom fed

proclaimed. Fighting occurred between
the soldiers and the mob. II IL stated
that eight persons were killed and many
injured A number Of soldiers are included
among the wounded.
The foregoing was mailed 10 Madrid
newspapers. in which Portuguese news Is
often exa ggerated and distorted, but II Is

RELIANCE, THE CUP DEFENDER
C. OLIVER ISELIN ANNOUNCES
NAME FOR THE NEW YACHT.

Syndicate Discusses Matters Relating to
the Defence OF the Cup and Selects
the Name From several suggestions
she's Another Eight.Letter Boat.
Mr.. G. oliver Iselin announced last night
that tho new Cup defender being built at
Bristol u TO DO named Reliance. The
members Of the syndicate for which the
boat 10 being built met and discussed matters
relating TO the yacht and passed on several
names that had been suggested Is appro-
pirate for the new boat. Reliance was the
word selected IS most suitable, and Mr..
Iselin. who u the manager OF the yacht,
made the announcement as soon as the
decision had been made.
Reliance sounds well and In q measure
tells that the American yachtsmen have
confidence In Capt. Nat Herreshoff's latest
creation, and all are now hoping that the
coming contest between the Reliance and
Shamrock III. will be as interesting as the
last series OF races and that the Reliance will
be In the lead at the finish In three OF
the series.
This u the fourth yacht that Mr.. Iselin
has managed In q series Of Cup races. He
began with the Vigilant, which defeated the
valkyrie ii. Then came the Defender.
which saved the cup from the third VAL
kyrie. His third yacht was the Columbia,
which sailed under MIR. Iselin's management
against the Shamrock l. and again under
Mr.. E. d. Morgan's management against
Shamrock ii.
IL is rather odd that all the Cup yachts
with which MIR. Iselin has had anything to
do have had eight letters In their names.
Yachtsmen are often superstitious about
the names given TO their boats and at one
time to have good luck the name had 70
have seven letters and q double o In II.
Suoh words As Harpoon, Raccoon and
Gossoon were in great demand. MIR. lselin
has had good fortune with his eight-letter
words and the Reliance Is Is euphonious
a. the names Of any OF her predecessors
IL might be pointed out that when the
Vigilant was built there was another Cup
defender. the Colonia. This name was
only seven letters and had two o's, but the
eight-letter named boat beat her out in the
Work on the new yacht at Bristol Is pro-
crossing favorably and 1t is confidently
expected that she will be ready for launch
ing by the middle Of next month. 1t has
already been told In The SUN that the best
tide for launching serves on Saturday,
April IL. and that is said to be the day that
Mr.. Herreehof Is figuring on having her
ready TO take her FIRST plunge into the
water Several steam yachts will he In
commission by that time and will take
ing Commodore Bourne's newly pur-
chased stesmer, Delaware. Is being got
ready at Hoboken and Commodore Bourne
expects to take q large party OF friends
on his yacht to Bristol to see the Reliance
as she Is launched.

horse stepped ON the tail Of the st. Bernard
and cut 1t of at the base. The St. Bernard
raised howl Of agony and the bulldog flew
at the horse. The horse promptly kicked
the dog in the mouth and knocked out all
its teeth.

the part of press correspondents all over the State of Texas to falsify concerning existing conditions in their different To- calities the ravages of the boil weevii in that State have been underestimated rather than overestimated by the re- ports that have been sent out before this time and the condition of the Texas cot- ton crop is very bad.
 It is evident from the tone of the tele- grams from Texas and the crop infor- nation published in the newspapers Of that State that the Texas idea of what this years crop will be Is very different from the idea of a great many Northern cotton men. In New York there Is plen- ty of talk about a 4,0OO OO0-bale crop for Texas. and the figure is very seldom placed below 3,50O.O00 bales, while in Tex as, where it Is fair to be presumed tho situation is better understood than 1t is in New York, a man receives newspaper notoriety as an optimst of the most pro- nounced type if he estimates the crop at 100000 bales.
 In forty-two reports from different Tex as cotton centers only three or four are indicative of as large a crop this year as there was last About two-thirds of the telegrams tell of the ravages Of DOH weevil and other pests; number or them say the crop in certain sections mas peeh ruined and from every place comes the report that the crop is unusually late. Allowing for the fact that some corre- spondents may have somewhat exasseE- ated the conditions existing detrimental to a good crop the reports from all over the Texas cotton belt are undoubtedly in the main very accurate, and the con- dition they show Is certainly not a favor- abla
