The penalizing of the boycott
The right of the attorney general to

TRYING TO solve
REG|CIDE MYSTERY

Lisbon, Feb. 26.-The mystery be-
hind the murder of King Carlos and
Prince Luiz is not likely ever to be
completely revealed. Now the Portu-
guese government prefers that the
crime be regarded both at home and
abroad as the deed of an individual
carried away by political passions of
the moment and inasmuch as the Re-
publicans are also anxious to clear
their skirts Of responsibility for the
regicide, both sides are glad to see
the investigation which will probe the
affair to the bottom smothered. Yet
there is undoubtedly much that could
be cleared up. 1t is a matter OF knowl-
edge that there were intrigues in high
places as we'll as low before the trag-
edy occurred and the rage OF leaders

and King Carlos were warning exceed
ed all bounds.
There is no suggestion that there
was no repetition of the Belgrade plot
aimed at the kings person but that
some desperate political leaders were
involved in a series of aborative plots
against Francois life which preceded
the murder is believed. Franco HIM
self told a friend the day before he
left Lisbon VIRTUALLY upon the order

possible to reveal to the world, what
he had learned of the intrigues Of
the enemies OF the king and himself
and it was therefore better for him
