CHURCH BODIES WARNED
TO LEAVE PORTUGAL
Religious Orders Must Quit the
Country in "a Hours-Po-
IitiCaI Prisoners Freed
Associated PressN

LISBON, Oct. 8.-Provisional Presia
dent Braga and his associates, feeling
more secure each day in their newly
assumed authority, are drawing tighter
the reins of government. They began
actively today to put into practice the
principles for which they have stood
and which they have promised shall
be the bulwarks of the new republic.
1t is apparent that no time is to be
lost, not only because of the necessity
of meeting popular expectations at
home, but as we'll for the moral erect
upon other nations, the recognition OF
which is anxiously sought.
The first step was the publication to-
day of an official decree ordering all
religious bodies in Portugal to leave
the country within twenty-four hours.
The government had promised the
separation of church and state, and the
suppression of religious orders. Almost
at the moment that the decree ap-
peared Marquis de Vermbaul was
placed under arrest, charged with nav
ing sheltered members OF the rel1g1ous
bodies and concealed arms In his nome.
Troops were stationed in the vicinity
of the religious establishments to pre-
vent attacks upon them by mobs. DR..
Alfonso Costa, the minister of justice,
also issued q decree ordering the re-
lease of all persons detained by the
monarchy on the charge Of belonging
to secret societies. This is in fulfill
ment of the projected policy of political
freedom.
DR.. Costa visited the camp Of the
Republican soldiers and personally con-
graduated those who had distinguished
themselves in the recent fighting.
These included two women VINO had
taken places in the ranks and partici-
pated throughout the combat. Word
comes from Oporto that some prison.
ers broke out of the Jail and fired on
their guards, who replied, killing two
and wounding sixteen.

COLONIES FAVOR REPUBLIC

LISBON, Oct. S--The hosting of the
British flag over the Jesuit monastery
in the Rue de Quel has saved the oc-
cupants from Republican troops which
attacked it last night. One priest was
killed and others were arrested.
The attack began during the night
after Republican troops had been fired
on from the windows of the monastery.
1t is believed the attack on the SOL
diers proceeded under the direction Of
Great Britain. The flag was respected
by the troops, who at once suspended
operations. It was then found that
one priest had been killed. Subse-
uuently the other occupants Of the
monastery were placed under arrest.
kilograms have been received from
all the colonies, expressing adherence
to the republic.
At the request of the governor, Gov
ernor General d'Andrade, who had an
nounced his intention of resigning,
will continue to administer the affairs
of Portuguese East Africa. The gov
ernor proclaimed the republic, but
when he was requested to hoist the
republican flag he said he did not have
one to hoist and did not know what
the flag was.
BOMBS HURLED AT PUPILS
According to today's papers the fight
at the monastery last night started
when bombs were thrown on the heads
of the parading pupils of the polytech-
nical school, killing three of them. The
troops hurried to the scene and fired
a volley at the windows of the build
ing. There were many victims on both
sides.
1t is reported that Joas C. Hagas will
be made minister to France, Jose Rel
vas minister to Ma adrid and Sebastino
M. Lima minister to Italy.
The fighting was severe for time,
but when the Jesuits were in peril of
their lives they ran up the colors of
the municipal guards.
