SHOT DOWN IN LISBON
Sever Killed and Many Wounded
In Election Riot.
POLICE BESIEGED IN CHURCH
Forced Into Edifice by Mob, They De-
fend Themselves With Rifle voIleys
Until Rescued by Soldiers-TroubIe
Over Vote Counting.

Lisbon. April 7.-Seven persons were
shot to death and many others wounded
by soldiers after the voting in the cleo
tons in this city had ended The riot
ing was widespread, and such was the
confusion arising in the violent conflict
between the populace and the munich
pal guard that the guardsmen, mistak-
ing infantrymen who had been called
out for members of the mob, fired
voley into their ranks, seriously
wounding three of the soldiers.
The principal rioting started in dis
pute between Republicans and Mon
archists about counting votes. The
Republicans, fearing fraud, made a
determined stand for their rights at
St Dominque's church, in the center
of the city, a district that is practical
ly the Republican stronghold. Both
Republicans and Monarchists had kept
a sharp watch throughout the day.
As the voters followed the ancient
custom of voting In the churches, they
filed steadily but slowly into historic
st. Dominique's and deposited their
ballots In the boxes.
When the polls closed the Monarch
list election officers said It was too late
to count the votes. The Republican
tellers insisted on an immediate count.
The differences between officials
spread to the crowd that filed the
church. blows were struck and a gen
eral fight followed. Suddenly the mu-
nicipal guard arrived and cleared the
edifice at the point of the bayonet
Guard Retreats Into Church.
Meantime the crowd outside the
church had greatly increased, and the
guardsmen's appearance at the doors
after they had forced the people into
the streets was a signal for a shower
Of stones, under which they retreated
inside the edifice, firing volley which
brought down several rioters.
The rioters armed themselves anew,
and soon the edifce was besieged by
a maddened mob.
The guardsmen fired internationally
through the doorways, but the volleys
were feeble and Intellectual. Even
tually the commanding officer placed
detail on the balcony over the main
portal. from which point the guards
men fired repeatedly into the surging
populace, wounding large number.
Still the mob did not give way, but
only attacked the church the more
furiously. Several guardsmen were
wounded, but they were replaced on
the balcony by others. and for three
hours the fight continued.
Then three companies of infantry
and troop Of cavalry. with one bat
