Lisbon, Feb. 3.-King Carlos of Por-

and the city is in a state of uproar.
The kings second son, the Infant
Manuel, was slightly wounded, but
Queen Amelie, who strove to save the
crown princes life by throwing herself
upon him, was unhurt.
Fired Without Warning.

of the Praco de Commerce. and the
Rua de Arsenal suddenly sprang
toward the open carriage in which the
royal family was driving to the palace
and. leveling carbines which they had
concealed upon them, fred.
King Shot Three Times.
The king and row prince, upon
whom the attack was directed, were
each shot three times and they lived
only long enough to be carried to the
marine arsenal near by, where they
expired.
Carlos Spoke No Word.
Almost at the first shot King Carlos
fell back on the cushions dying, and,
at the anne moment, the crown prince
was seen to half rise and then sink
back on the seat.
Queen l~nterposed Her Person.
Queen Amelie jumped up and threw
herself toward the crown prince, in
the cost of her own, but the prince
already had received his death wound.
The police guard fired upon the as
sassins and killed three of them.
Strong Guard in Attendance.
The royal family were returning
from Villa Vicosa, where they had
been sojourning, and were on their
way from the railroad station to the
palace. A strong guard was in at
tendance, because of the recent upris-
ing in the city and the discovery of a
plot to assassinate Premier Franco
and overthrow the monarchy.
An Advantageous Spot.
The band of murderers had selected
the most advantageous spot for the
commission of their crime, for they
were concealed from the eyes of the
police until the carriage had wheeled
into the Praco de Commerce.. a large
square.
