PORTUGAL s FATE
HANGS IN BALANCE
Ex-King ManuePs Representative
Claims Royalists Have Proclaimed
Monarchy in Northern Provinces.

LONDON, Oct. 5.-The fate OF the
Portuguese republic is today in the
balance. This is the day scheduled for
the long.heralded counter-revolution
and the Royalist colony here is con-
fdently predicting that the end Of the
republic Is at hand.
The Marquis Della Vradio, ex.King
Manuel's secretary, issued statement
early today that Royalist forces. had
occupied the two northern provinces
OF Portugal and proclaimed the mon
archy.. The Marquis claimed that he
had positive information to this ef-
feet.
The Republican troops are desert
Ing" he said. "and the counter-revolu-
tion Is rapidly spreading all over the
country. The governments statement
that II has ben suppressed is utterly
false"
While the strictest censorship Is be
ing exercised by the Portuguese gov
ernment enough information has come
over the Spanish frontier partly to
confirm the Marquis statement. One
report states that Capt. Coucerio, com
manding the koyalist forces, after de-
feating the Republican troops in a
pitched battle, entered Oporto in tri'
umph.
King Manuel is still at Richmond
but is believed to be planning a secret
departure II the first news OF Royalist
successes Is confirmed.

SAYS POLITICAL INFLUENCE
OF THE SALOON PREDOMINATEs
Committee Of Men and Religion For
ward Movement Makes Report
on Social Survey.

In its report on the social survey
which 1t has been conducting in De-
troit for some weeks, the special com
mittee OF the Men and Religion For
ward Movement says that the politi-
cal influence Of the saloon predomi-
mates in Detroit. The investigation
was made under the supervision of
Maurice Willows, of the National AS
sociation OF Charity Organization
Societies, New York. l. w. Jayne. Of
the Detroit Society for the Proven.
ton Of Cruelty to Children, Is chair
man OF the committee. The report
speaks of the saloons as follows:
The political influence of the sa-
loon Is in a way indefinable, but II is
generally conceded that it is predomi-
nant on account of the political fran.
.chise of those who frequent it.
'"TwCnty-one city officials are saloon.
keepers, These inclue eight members
Of the board OF estimates, seven aid.
ermen, q school inspector, "a member
OF the House OF Correction board.
three members of the city Democratic
committee and the superintendent Of
the eastern yard" .,
The report continues:
No conspicuous graft has been
found in the city In the last ten years.
The weakness Of Detroit il that OF all
American cities of large population
that while the saloon may not be the
controlling force, 1t Is perhaps the
most persistent and it's influence pre-
dominates"
Regarding the conditions affecting
the boys OF the city, the report OBJ
serves:
The legitimate newspaper selling
business is a good discipline; selling
gum and pencils and hanging around
the docks Is bad. There are 2.700
licensed newsboys in Detroit. The
boy bootblacks are mostly Greeks
over the age limit. No boy peddlers
are allowed to operate.
The temptations to smoke and
gamble are always before such boys,
and the sleeping out at nights Is de-
moralizing. The newspaper business
itself Is very clean in this city, but
the boys who infest the docks are lit
tie more than beggars."
Moving picture shows are we'll su.
pervised and censored, the report
says. Bowling alleys are declared to
have a bad influence on boys.
