Conditions in Portugal.

Lisbon, June 24.-An early culmina-
ton in the general unrest throughout
Portugal will be precipitated, it IS
feared today, by King Manuel's de-
cision to inaugurate practical military
dictatorship in consequence OF his
failure to form a new cabinet. The
failure to form the cabinet resulted
from the jealousies of numerous lead
ing politicians on whom Manuel had
relied for support.
Manuel has tired OF this opposition
and Is determined to expel from parlia-
ment, by force il necessary, the rioters
and obstructionists who have hindered
the work OF readiustment.
In accordance with his new plan, the
military element Of parliament is be-
ing greatly strengthened and sweeping
moves are expected within the next few
days. Some OF the more conservative
OF Manuel's adyiseres are afraid that his
course will precipitate general out
break for which it is admitted the coun-
try is ripe.
Manuel insists, however, that he has
promises OF support from enough OF
the leaders to ensure the successful
conclusion OF his plans

DIED BY AGREEMENT.

Birmingham, Ala, society was stirred
yesterday by the suicides of Guy X.
Johnson, capitalist and clubman, and
Mrs. w. p. G. Harding, wife
OF the president Of the First
National Bank of Birmingham, the
richest bank of the state. In pursu-
ance to an agreement, the suicides oc-
Cured Wednesday afternoon at about
the same hour, Mrs, Harding shooting
herself through the heart and dying
instantly, and Johnson putting bullet
into his body just below the heart and
lingering until yesterday, when the
end came. The suicides took place IN
separate houses, two miles apart.
Direct connection between the-two was
indicated by the statement of the john
son chauffeur that he carried a package,
in which a pistol was wrapped, from
Johnson to Mrs. Harding half an hour
before the tragedy. Johnson telephoned
the Harding house a short while later,
and, learning that Mrs. Harding had
killed herself, at once fired the fatal
bullet into his own body His dying
statement is said to have been that Mrs.
Harding was innocent Of any wrong
doing, but that gossip had driven her to
suicide, and, knowing his name would
be connected, he fired the shot into his
breast.
Mrs. Harding leaves three girls, the
eldest II. She was 80 years of age,
regarded as one of the most beautiful
women in the south and the social
leader of Birmingham.
Johnson came to Birmingham three
years ago from Pennsylvania to take
charge as vice president and general
manager Of the Alabama Consolidated
Coal and Iron Company, from which
position he was recently deposed. He
leaves a widow and three young boys,

England and Egypt.

Manchester, England, June "a. -Ex-
elusive cables to the United Press two
weeks ago to the effect that England
was considering change of admins
tration in Egypt are confirmed today
by the Manchester Guardian.
There is good authority" the
Guardian says, for the statement that
the foreign Office, despite Sir Edward
Grey's recent eulogy OF Sir Eldon Gorst,
has decided to recall Sir Eden from
Egypt and to appoint in his place Sir
Arthur Hardinge, the minister to Bel
GUM. who is cousin OF Sir Charles
Hardinge, the newly appointed yiceroy
Of India.
Gorst is the British agent and consul
general in Egypt and there has been
uemand by many Of the conservatives
for his recall ever since be was inferen-
tally attacked by Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt in his famous Guild Hall
speech. Roosevelt urged stronger
hand in the rule OF Egypt and Sir Ar
thur HardiDge is believed to be the man
who will give such rule.
In order to make it appear, however,
that the contemplated action is in no
way influenced by Roosevelt, it is said
that dorst rendered his resignation be-
fore the Guild hall speech.

Falls Church, Fairfax and Manassas,

may be some eight or ten miles longer
than one that would follow closely the
line of the r., F. 4 P, road, the adj
vantages derived from opening up a
new country, and passing through a
section that would supply an ever in
creasing amount of traffic, would be
incalculabIe. Nor would it be much
more costly to construct, because Of
the fewer bridges to be built. Every
possible inducement should be offered

Groom Felled by Cops Club.

CoatesyilIe, Pa, June 24.-"Stop
that man !" shouted a group OF young
men to Policeman Jack Allen, while
pursuing John A. Duffy, a well-to-do
real estate resident Of Sharon, Pa +,
who had just married Miss Helen A.
Walsh, young daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. John Walsh, this borough. Duffy
was trying to dodge wOuld-be hazers.
Policeman Allen was not aware that
Duffy had Just been married, and
thought that his pursuers wanted him
for something else. SO he stopped
Duffy suddenly by tapping him on the
head with his mace.
We're only fooling; don't hit me
again" explained the bridegroom.
Il don't know anything about that.
The men following you said to catch
you, and | have done my duty" said
Allen.
The blow from the policems's club
stunned Duffy, and when his friends
arrived he was sitting on the curb,
holding his head. Il feel STICK" he
said, and was taken to the home Of his
brides parents, where a reception was
being held.

CONFESSION OF A MURDERER.

II. G. holland, arrested Wednesday
morning on suspicion of having muir
dered Alice Brown Litten, whose
body was found in the woods below
South Cumberland, Md, with her
throat cut, has made a complete con-
fession of the murder. He gave de-
tailed account Of how he killed the
young woman and the causes leading
up to the act.
He said the woman had attempted to
hit him with rocks and had threatened
his life. In a clear voice holland told
of going to the Brown home early in
the evening where he saw Alice and
her child Her mother and brothers,
and Cleve Barringer and Helen Low
cry, came in later They sent out
for some beer and whisky. The girls
had gone out on the hill, but returned
later, and were angry because the
men had been drinking before they
came in although some beer and
whisky were still left. He described
infinitely the events of the evening at
the Brown home. The mother and
others went up stairs to 60 to bed and
quarrel took place between him and
Alice. Finally he left the house and
Alice followed him. They were still
quarreling, and when near the fence
she threatened his life. They went
over into the woods and he seated
himself on the ground. When he
mentioned another girls name Alice
became furious and started to assail
him with rocks. He jumped to his
feet and moved off The girl fol-
lowed him and he grabbed her and
choked her until she fell to the
ground. Then he took the knife and
cut her throat twice. He waited until
she had breathed her last and then
placed the knife on her breast and
walked out Of the woods.
The murder was committed within
100 yards of both the Brown and
holland homes. Some think that be-
cause of a report that Alice was about
to be reconciled to her husband with
whom she had lived but one day, the
feeling of jealousy holland had shown
was intensified.

ANOTHER TRIP
The Dutschiand sails with Twenty
Passengers--Buhet Breakfast Aboard.

Dusseldorf, June 24.-The first
aerial trip for purely commercial pur-
poses in the history Of aviation began
here today when the Deutschland, the
giant dirigible owned by the Hamburg
American Steamship Company and the
German Airship Stock Company, sailed
for three-hour trip carrying twenty
passengers who had paid $50 each for
their tickets.
The trip was in southeasterly di-
rection, and was the first stage OF the
Deutschland's return voyage toward
Friederichshafen, from which city she
made wonderful cruise to Dusseldorf
last Wednesday, covering the route OF
nearly 800 miles in less than ten hours.
Had the carrying capacity OF the
Deutschland been ten times as great,
she still would have been unable TO ac-
commodate those who wished to sail on
her today. Those who sailed today
bought their tickets more than two
weeks ago.
The scond stage of the journey was
scheduled to begin this afternoon with
twenty new passengers. This, TOO,
will be a 100 mile iaunt, with a final
and third trip of this length bringing
the airship to Friederrischafen and a
revenue Of s., 900. All the places in the
ship are booked for the next twelve
trips.
On the first commercial voyage Of
the Deutschland there were twelve
German passengers, six Englishmen
and two HoIanders. They occupied
the saloon car" and enjoyed a buffet
breakfast shortly after the cruise began.
The Deutschland completed the first
stage Of her trip, 100 miles, without
mishap, despite the fact that she en-
countered bad weather at her landing
place and was forced to make an open
anchorage. The hundred miles were
completed in three hours, the ship
maintaining an average speed of 80
miles an hour.

THE PUBLIC BUILDINGS BILL.

Discovery was made yesterday that
the public building bill, carrying about
$40, 600, 900 as it passed the Senate and
House, does not carry any actual APP
preparation of money, but merely au-
thorized the purchase of sites and the
erection of buildings.
The bill originated in the House and,
it was stated, it was generally under
stood that there was to be no immedl-
ate appropriation of money, although
number of the members worked ar
IDENTIFY for the bill in the belief that
their districts were to receive some i'm
mediate benefit. In the Senate, how
ever, many senator's busted themselves
in unusual effort for their states, be-
lieving that the bill provided for the
early erection Of public buildings.
1t was explained yesterday by state
ment from the House committee on
appropriations that the experimenting
architect OF public buildings was so far
behind with his work that there was nc
use of appropriating money for any adj
ditionaI buildings for at least 16 months
to come.
The Senate late yesterday accepted
the conference report on the bill, Chair
man Scott, of the Senate committee
declaring that the bill was one Of the
best public buildings bills passed in a
long time.
