General Pimentel Pinto, one of the few
monarchical leaders who took any active
share in attempting to suppress the
revolutionary movement, has been lib
Grated on giving an undertaking that
he would do nothing to disturb the re
public.
Repetitions of the demonstrations at
the capital are occurring in the prov

From all districts come reports of fes-
rivals in honor of the new republic
Peace prevails throughout the coun-

from sacking the religious establish
| ments and TO check the demonstrations
against the monks. pending their eXpul-

cret sUbterranean tunnels at the mOnas-
teries set afioat rumors that many
monks were still hiding under ground
awaiting a favorable opportunity to
emerge and continue the fight against
the new regime. To satisfy the crowd
the military began subterranean explora-
tons. and in one instance went so far
as to dig q trench TO find the suspected
tunnel.
As was the case NJ the time of the
Barcelona riots. the popular feeling
seems to be restricted TO the monks and
nuns and does not manifest itself toward
the secular clergy.
DR.. Costa, the Minister of Justice, or
dered to-day the release of Cardinal 10
seph Sebastian Netto, former Patriarch
OF Lisbon, who had been seized and or
dered expelled from the country. DR.
Costa explained that the real object OF
the arrest was to protect the Cardinal
from possible outrage.
The Minister said that several mOnas-
! teries and converts belonging TO Portu-
guese or foreign orders were veritable
arsenals. and that the activity OF the
clericals, who persisted in obstinate re-
sistance 20 the republic, hastened the or
der Of expulsion. which, he added, was
necessary 10 quiet the public spirit.
