CAMPAIGN OF

NOW TERRORIZES CITY OF

R|OTING HAS NOW CEASED
But This New Unseen Terror has
Victims are Being Picked OFF
Nightly, One by One

Lisbon, April Dust recovering
from the election riots in which this
city saw the worst scenes of blood
shed and strife, a new terror has APP
peared that has dcmoralized the en-
tire population. Roting has ceased
but campaign OF assassination Is
being waged nightly, and with such
fatal results that there is the gravest
apprehension felt for the safety of
prominent private and public citi-
zens.
Just now the attacks seem directed
against the guardsmen. Several
men were shot or stabbed last night
three of whom are dead and one is
dying. Three of the victims were
municipal guards and the other one
took a prominent part in the sup
preston Of the election riots earlier
in the week
1t is said that plot has been or
gained by the enemies OF the gov
eminent TO pick eff the gaudrsmen
one by ono, and then the attacks
will be directed to higher officials
and officers of the government. The
very gravest fears are felt for the
safety Of these officers. Were their
enemies to attempt their attacks III
the open, the government would
know what organized bodies are plot
ing against their lives and could bet
ter handle the situation, but to be at
tackled by an unseen foe has made
the situation one OF the gravest il
the history of the city.
