american News service)


Lisbon, Oct. 31.-Troops were mass
ed about tho government house today
and soldiers were held in readiness
in the barracks as the result of the
unearthing OF military conspiracy
and the arrest Of thirty-two officers
charged with secretly plotting against
the new republic. President Braga,
the provisional head or the republic,
while admitting today that he did not
know how far the infection had
spread, declared that the revelation
came about through an investigation
by the judiciary and not of the cab
met
Drastic measures were taken today
to prevent the further display of dis
loyalty. It was reported that the cab
met feared that a secret cabal existed
to overthrow the republic and set
Manuel back upon the Portuguese
throne
Senior Franco, who was premier
when King Carlos and Crown Prince
Louis were assassinated nearly three
years ago, has been arrested, but to-
day was at liberty under heavy bonds.
Other members OF his cabinet were
arrested while the revolution against
the crown was at It's height. He is
charged with abuse of power al
though it is secretly hinted that the
real accusation against him is that
he is suspected Of fomenting dissen-
sion against the republic. Franco was
an. exile from Portugal for about two
years and it is only recently that he
came into the country from Spain
where he had been hiding.

the Prohibitionists and the Socialists
are planning to wind up their cam

All the candidates on the Republi.

during the week. Many other leading
men Of the party. such as Senator

aged "a. the deceased son. died at the
hospital. with typhoid fever Sunday
afternoon while his brother, Owen
Evans, was in a nearby ward expect
ed to die at any moment The latter
is slightly improved today. however.
The brothers were taken to the hos
pital about ten days ago, after both
had been suffering from the disease
several days Their condition at that
time was regarded as critical. They
were placed in the same ward at
first but as they gradually grew worse
they were separated greatly against
their wishes. The hospital authori-
ties believed more rapid improve
ment would be gained by such action.
Saturday Charles Evans lost con-
sciopsness and seontipped to grow
worse until death ensued about four
o'clock yesterday afternoon. The 9TH
er brother. Owen Evans, has not yet
been told OF his brothers death and it
10 probable he win not be informed

moved to the home Of his mother last
night. Besides the mother and broth
er. Owen Evans. one other brother,
Emory survives. The funeral will be

City Attorney Preparing Con-
tract Permitting Use of Ger
tain Streets by Company
for Freighters.
A PAVING ESTIMATE
IS MADE BY CHARLES
City Engineer Thinks South A
Street Improvement I'M
practical - Other Matters
Before the Board.

A franchise and contract which will
be entered into by the city and the
Terre Haute. Indianapolis & Eastern
traction company. IL an agreement is
reached. is being drawn up by City
Attorney A. M. Gardner. to give the
company the use of some streets Of
the city. probably North Twentieth
and North E streets Tor the use of
freight cars, in case the company
will agree to take the freight line out
of Glen Miller park. This the T. H.
l. & E. has promised the board Of
works to do. therefore 1t is probable
a satisfactory understanding can be
reached.
The city attorney stated this morn
ing he was not yet sure about the pro-
visions of the franchise, but no pains
will be spared In constructing a con-
tract which will hold the company.
This franchise will first be entered
into by the company and board of
works. after which the board must ap-
prove 1t. The contract then goes to
the city council for ratification. The
matter will probably be presented to
the board in two weeks. A report on
the matter was made at the meeting
Of the board of works at this morn.
ing's meeting.
Estimate on Paving.
\ City Engineer Charles reported on
the probable cost Of paving South A
street from Second street west to the
plant Of the Starr Piano company. En-
gineer Charles found the approximate
cost of the improvement will be over
$1,000 for brick and about $1,000 for
concrete. A few weeks ago a repre-
sentative of the Starr Piano company
was before the board and agreed that
In case permission was given the COM
pany, 1t would stand the entire ex-
pense Of the improvement. The COM
pany asked that the city draw up spe-
cifications for the improvement
These will be submitted to represen-
tatives Of the company at once. The
engineer however believes on account
Of the incline OF over IL per cent on
the street the improvement will be
impractical
On a petition of A. w. Gregg and
w. H. Bartel portion of West First
street from Pearl to the first alley
north was vacated. 80 that the street
could be moved farther from proper
ties owned by the petitioners. A fee
Of SIS on each property will probably
be charged. An examination of the
property was made this afternoon by
the board of works.
Complaint of the unsightly appear
ance of number of the c. & o. rail-
road trestles was made by City At
torney Gardner. It is probable the C.
& o. will be notified to construct steel
spans in number of places where
wooden trestles now exist
The board will go to Bellefontaine.
O., Wednesday, to examine number
OF new styles of street rollers. The
city attorney reported that he had
the papers for the annexation of Ben
ton Heights drawn up ready for pre-
sentation to the council next week.

kEENE LOSES TEMPER
OVER HOOKING POOL QUIZ.
Admits Selling Stock Without
Warning-HeId $500 Shares.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1S.-James r..
Keene lost his temper while being
quizzed about the Hooking pool,
which wiped out three Stock Exchange
firms and cost investors n large sum
of money. Nh. keene was the chief
witness before United States Commits
sioner Alexander yesterday in the
bankruptcy proceedings of j. M. Fiske
& Co.
''What we're your holdings OF Hook
ing Coal and Iron on January 10 at the
time Of the selling out of the pool?'
Mr.. Keene vas asked.
I'm all / had about 1900 shares
And of that how many in the pool?'
about 6,100 shares, or $780,
He admitted having sold his original
holdings and not having informed the
pool members of the fact. A previous
warning, he thought. had been sufi-
eient.
What is the difference between a
sale and a delivery of stock, Mr.
Keene?'
II don't know" replied the stock
operator rather, pettishly. I'm not ar
expert in bookkeeping"
Repeating his question in another
form, counsel got a sharp answer.
you might ask me these questions
for 100 years. exclaimed Mr.. Keene
