PORTUGAL A REPUBLIC
RIGHT NOW
RENOLUTIONIST FLAG FLOATING
OVER CAPITAL AND BRAGA
PROCLAIMED PRESIDENT.

Lisbon, Oct. 5.--The capital is now
completely in the hands of the repub-
licans, who have formed a provisional
government with Theophile Braga as
president. A new national flag of
red and green is flying over all public
buildings, including the town hall.
King Manuel, with the queen mother,
Amelie, and his grandmother, the
queen dowager Maria Pia, has taken
refuge at Mafra, 23 miles from Lis
bon.
Portugal has been proclaimed re-
public
According to the latest Lisbon ad-
vices, Theophile Braga, republican
leader, is the new president.
The Portuguese "Marseilaise" is
now the new national anthem, and
the emblem of monarchy on the palace
has been replaced by the flag of red
and green, the colors of the republican
party.
That there was no serious fighting
in the streets of Lisbon is evidenced
by dispatches from all quarters. Dis
orders at Oporto have been repressed
by the troops many regiments of which
are said to be still loyal, to the king.
King Manuel, the queen mother and
the queen dowager are reported to
have taken refuge in the palace at
Mafra, a short distance from Lisbon.
They may now be on a warship bound
for Gibraltar AT least, they are con-
sidered to have reached a place of
safety.
London advices state that by treaty
of alliance Great Britain is bound to
afford protection to the king OF Portu-
gal if this is duly applied for" The
French newspapers are urging the
government of France not to prevent
Intervention, even if Spain, too, is
threatened with an overthrow. The
French cabinet will meet tomorrow to
deliberate on the Portuguese situation
and on the advisability of sending a
warship to Lisbon.
Already British warShips are on the
way to protect British interests. The
American gunboats Petrol and Wheel
ing are at Genoa, within easy reach of
Lisbon, should the American govern
ment decide to send them there.
No detailed account of the fighting
has yet been received or any definite
estimate of the causalties. A signif-
icant incident, according to the Lisbon
dispatch, is the visit paid by the Span
ish minister to the republican leaders
after the fall of the palace and the flag
of the revolutionary was hoisted ON
the town hall.

GEM ENT PLANT
FOR ALAMOGORDO
Shale Found Near There Is
Also Good for Brick
Making.

The Empire Clay Pottery company. a
corporation composed of H NJ. Brandt,
Of FL Paso, and c. S. Foust and VIII.
Fisher, of Alamogordo. n. NJ, has ac-
quired so acres of land, located nine
miles northeast of Alamogordo, n. NJ,
adjacent to the E. P. & s. ". railway
right of way, in the Fresnol canyon of
Sacramento mountains, containing blue
steel shale and lime rccIz in unlimited
quantities, as well as a vein of semi
anthracite coal
Through this tract flows a strong
stream OF pure mountain water. The
shale and limestone have been analysed
in Dayton and Cleveland, O.. and in
Chicago, and pronounced of prime quail
ity for manufacturing Portland ce-
ment. The shales are said TO be very
superior for brick making.
Ar. Fisher, who owns the AlamOgordo
light plant, is constructing a power
plant TO generate electricity for light
and power purposes on the stream. The
power generated viii be of minimum
cost, as the stream has a headwater of
go feet and will generate several thou
