LISBON QUIETS DOWN
ROYALISTS HAVE GAINED A
SWEEPING VICTORY.

LISBON. April s.-The situation in Lis
bon has improved. There has been no
resumption of the election rtoting. the city
today is calmer and this morning the
shops reopened. Lisbon is virtually under
martial law and with the arrival of re-
Inducements the military government is
in absolute control CT the city. The re-
publican leaders disclaim any RESPONSE
bility for the disorders and bloodshed Of
Sunday and Monday.
The general opinion is that the royalists
have gained a sweeping victory at the
polls Irrespective of how this was at
tanned it greatly strengthened the throne
and affords an opportunity for the re-
Mobilization of the monarchy. There Is
little belief. however. that the ''rotatives."
who again are in the saddle. will sink
their greed and devote themselves dis
interestedly to the public welfare and the
regeneration of the administration.
The patriarch of Lisbon has forbidden
the celebration of mass In the churches
of ST. Dominique. Alcantara and Santos.
The elections We're held in these buildings
and they were the scene of rioting and
conflict: consequently the patriarch holds
that they have been desecrated.

REPUBLICANS ARE ANXIOUS
FEEL THAT THEIR CAMPAIGN
WILL BE A HARD ONE.
fractional Bitterness in Certain States
Causes Apprehension in High
Party Quarters.

Republican leaders in Congress make
no pretense of concealing their anxiety
over the outcome Of the national elections
next November 1t is a common thing
to hear republican members Of the House
admit that the chances are against the
election of a republican majority in the
House next fall. Some republicans en-
terrain very grave doubts over the presi-
Dental election, but console themselves
with the hope that the democrats may
do the wrong thing at the right time
and thus compensate for existing disad-
vantages under which the republican
party is said to be laboring.
1t is admitted that this is somewhat of
a new role for the republican party to be
playing-prospective beneficiary of the
mistakes Of it's opponents. 1t is pointed
out that heretofore the republicans have
won upon policy of action, aggression
and progress; The great victories on the
money question. the tariff question. the
Philippines question and other issues
were gained in this way
Two Causes Contribute to Anxiety.
Two main causes contribute to the
anxiety of the republicans at this time.
They are. first. the widespread Industrial
depression. the resulting hard times. a
fertile aud prolific field for democratic
growth. Second. the factional troubles
within the republican party in a great
many states
Some republicans in Congress are of the
opinion that conditions are rapidly grow
ing more favorable to possible stampede
for Roosevelt. They say that unless Sec
rotary Taft is nominated on the first bal
lot the way will be open for contest
In the convention which may make Roose-
velt's denomination unavoidable. They
think that conditions are working rapidly
to this end.
1t is a fact that the average run of
republicans. taking them by and large,
entertain the opinion that President
Roosevelt's denomination will be the out
come of the present muss in which the
party finds itself Opinions vary whether
In that event the republicans would win
or lose. Some think that President Roose-
Welt Is so strong with the common people
that he would override all opposition.
Others believe that the third term ques-
ton could be raised against him with
effect. Still others say that it would all
depend upon the democratic nominee, and
on that side of the question as to whether
Bryan or Johnson would be the stronger
man there are as many opinions as there
are facets to a diamond.
Upon one proposition, however there is
almost universal agreement, and that is
that national politics. both democratic
and republican, is in a worse balied-un
condition than the country has seen In
many year.

he did not favor the increase that had
been made in the army.

MUST GIVE FAIR TREATMENT
EQUAL ACCOMMODATIONS FOR
RACES IN THE SOUTH.
President Roosevelt Directs Pro
ceedings to Enforce Interstate
Commissions Order.

President Roosevelt today made public
his letter of April 2 to the Attorney Cen
eral directing proceedings by injunction to
compel certain railroads of the south to
furnish equal accommodations to white
and negro passengers.
The text of the Presidents letter is as
follows:
ITO the Department Of Justice: z
II forward herewith the report Of the
interstate commerce commission contain
ing its order of June 81. 1907, and the re-
port of the failure of the railroad COM
pany to obey this order. under date Of
March 26. 1908. together with a letter of
the commission of April /, 1908. 1t ap-
pears that the Nashville. Chattanooga and
ST. Louis Railway Company has not COM
piled with the order of the commission
TO furnish the same facilities to colored
passengers paying first-class fare that are
furnished to white passengers paying
frst-class fare. From time to time va
rious complaints have been made to me
by reputable colored people to the effect
that the accommodations furnished to COL
ored persons on certain railways are filthy
and inadequate compared to the same
accommodations furnished to white pas
sengers paying the same fare. The COM
mission has taken what Is unquestionably
the rlSnt GROUNDS, that where separate
accommodations are provided for white
and colored passengers the accommoda-
tons for colored passengers shall be as
good as those furnished to white pas
sengers for the same money. In other
words while there is nothing in the law
which forbids separate accommodations,
these accommodations must be equal
This principle of equality Of accommo-
dalton is set out explicitly in various
state laws. For instance. the code of the
state of Alabama provides that there shall
be equal, but separate accommodations
for the white and colored races, by pro-
viding two or more passenger cars for
each passenger train or by dividing the
passenger cars by partitions. The action
Of tn commission has simply been to
insist that the accommodations be equal
in convenience and comfort. for the same
money wherever the separation is made
In this particular case where the railway
has neglected to comply with the order Of
the commission 1t is important that COM
pliance with this order be Immediately OBJ
tanned. l suggest that you proceed to en-
force the order by injunction proceedings
unless. In your judgment, some other
course is preferable.

COST OF GAS TO CONSUMER
HOUSE DISTRICT COMMITTEE
HEARS PROF. BEMIs' VIEWS.
he Declares That at the Maximum
Rate Should Not Be Above IS
Cents Per 1000 Feet.

The maximum rate for gas to the con-
sumner In the District of Columbia should
not under any circumstances be more
than SIS cents a thousand feet. and prob
ably much lower, according to a state
ment made to the House District COM
mittee this morning by Prof. Edward
W. Bemis of Cleveland, Ohio, author of
a number of monographs on gas and
recognized expert on this commodity.
Today had been set by the District COM
nfittee for a hearing on section 5-the
stock imitation provision-of the local gas
act Of 1896. But Attorney Goldsborough.
who was to have appeared for the gas
company, is quite i'll. The company was
represented by w F. Hart. its general
manager. and j. S. McIlhenny. chief en-
gineer. Prof. Bemis took all the avail
able time. many members OF the COM
mittee asking him questions.
Prof. Bems declared that he had made
his computations that the company should
not be permitted to charge more than 50
cents a thousand feet for its product.
on the basis Of the company,s latest
annual report. He was inclined to be-
leve that the price might fairly he made
lower than this perhaps as low as 20
to IS CENTS although just what the exact
figure should be he was not prepared to
state, not. ha wing gone into the matter in
thcroughness to warrant the fixing by him
arbitrarily of what he considered the
fairest price to both the company and
the consumer.
Conditions in other cities were gone into
at considerable length by Prof. Bemis.
He also discussed the question of high
candle power. saying that five candle
power in gas made a difference of about
one gallon of oil for enriching purposes
for 900 feet or about ) cents difference
in money
Owing to the fact that the gas COM
pany's side of the controversy was not
taken up the committee will set date
for another hearing when Mr.. Goldsbor-
ough or some other attorney for the
company will have opportunity not only
to protest against the repeal of the stock
imitation clause. but also to attempt to
controvert Prof. Bemis' statement.
Senator Gallinger. chairman of the Dis
trict committee and chairman of the Dis
trict subcommittee Of the committee on
appropriations. declined today to express
any opinion upon the action Of the House
yesterday fixing the cost Of gas to be used
hereafter by the District government at
IS cents. Mr.. Gallinger's subcommittee
will handle the District appropriation bin
when it gets to the Senate. He prefers to
wait until then before saying anything
about the matter.
