Conditions In Portugal.

Paris, April 7.-Cowed into submits
sion by overwhelming military force,
Lisbon is outWardly quiet today, accord
ing to reports from the Portuguese CAPT
tai.
The censorship is so strict, however,
thst no very accurate idea of real con-
ditiOus can yet be gained. Arrests are
being made by wholesale. and there Is
no doubt that only constant vigilance
and the utmost severity are maintaining
order.
The official report that seven persons
we're killed and 100 wounded by the
troops Sunday night is unaccompsuied
by any statement Of the fatalities yester-
day, which is known to have been
marked by continued disorders.
The Portuguese governments reti-
ceuce is interpreted uDfsvorably, and
news is constantly expected OF renewal
of the trouble. OF the result OF The
elections no report has been made further
than that the government gained sweep
ing victory.

CONGRESSIONAL.

The Senate yesterday disposed Of
more than sos, 600, 900 in just about
ninety-eight minutes. The army appro-
priation bill was passed in that period
Of time, carrying, among other things,
provision for material increase in the
pay of the army, including an average
raise OF 40 per cent. for enlisted men.
Senator Burkett tried to secure further
consideration of the Deliver school
bill, but Senator Nelson's opposition
baked him.
Several District bills we're passed, re-
ported or introduced.
The Senate passed the Hou'e resolu.
ton donating to Oklahoma the first flag
containing As stars, which WAS raised
over The Capital few days ago.
A resolution introduced by Mr..
Foraker was adopted. 1t calls on the
Secretary of Wsr for the names of all
former sold ers of the 25:h. Infantry
discharged without honor on accoUn, of
the Brownsville STRAY, who have applied
Tor reinstatement.
As stated in the Gazette on that day
the House pfsad the employers lisbil-
ity bill. Ia brief, the bill establishes
the doctrine that the railroad companies
engaged 10 interstate commerce are liable
for personal Injuries received by employees
in lbe service OF such carriers IL abolshes
the strict common law rule of liability
which bars recovery for the personal
injury or death of an employe occssioued
by the negligence OF f,lov.seIysnt.
1t sl,o relaxss the COMMON law rule,
which makes contributory negligence a
defense TO claims tor such injuries. A
provision, however, dimiUishes the
smouut Of the recovery in the same de-
gee that the negligence of the Injured
one contributes to the iojury. The
till further makes each party responsible
for his own negligence, and requires
each 10 bear the burden thereof. The
bill rs p ssed by the House was trans.
mi,tHd to the Senate later in The day,
and on motion Ct Senator Deliver was
laid on the table, subject to being
