Lisbon.-The disorders which oc-
Cured here Monday night, owing to
the expulsion of two Chinese women
for the Illegal exercise Of a 'cure for
blindness" attained serious proper
lions. All the streets in the center
of the city were occupied by cavalry
who charged continuously in all d.
~rections. The populace which was
armed, offered firm resistance and
shots were freely exchanged. Sud-
denly a great explosion was heard on
the Plaza Dom Pedro. The cavalry
galloped up. unslinging their a
bines, and poured volley after volley
through the windows of a cafe in
which a great mob had taken refuge
and barricaded themselves with
chairs, divans and other furniture.
The mob answered the attack until
all the large panes of glass were rid

dered. Two persons were found
killed and a large number wounded.
A similar scene was enacted at an
other store, where ONE of the Re
publican leaders had taken refuge
from the furious populace. The riot
ers, unable to cope with the militia,
fed into taverns and other places,
from which they hooted and fired
upon the passing soldiers until the
latter entered and expelled them.
An official statement gives the
number of killed as two, while tnlr-
ty-fOur Others were wounded and
sixty-six arrested. The statement at

Her Relations to Other European

London.-Sir Edward Grey, secre-

Of Anglo-German relations in a
speech in the house of
The foreign secretary reviewed
the whole Moroccan episode, from
the sudden appearance of the Ger
man gunboat Panther at the port of
Agadir up to the signing of the
Franco-German treaty. He unfinch-
ingly upheld the attitude taken by
the British government, but at the
same time declared that it's action
was never antagonistic to Germany
or to any settlement she was able to
arrange with France which did not
threaten the rights of Great Britain.
Sir Edward, made no secret of the
fact that the situation had at one
time been tense, but thought his
statements would prove a sedative
to a world which had been indulging
in a fit of political alcoholism and
that the time had arrived for it to
get sober and to keep cool.
Great Britain had no secret treaty
and both France and Russia knew
perfectly well hat British pubic
opinion would not support any prov
ocative or aggressive action against
Germany.
Germany's strength in itself was a
guarantee that no other country
would seek a quarrel with her. but
II a nation had the biggest army in
the world and a very big navy and
was going to build a still bigger
navy, then that nation must do all
in its power to prevent apprehen-
sions OF others, lest that power
should have aggressive intentions TO-
ward them.

The introduction Of a bill in
Congress to establish a perma-
neat tariff commission by repre-
sentative Longworth, a republi-
can, seems to have been an al.
ter thought. This measure q
year ago wouli have been more
in keeping with the fitness OF
things. Since the republicans
have lost the country and Con-
gress, through the Payne-Al
drich tariff bill, they now seek
to establish a commission who
they think. no doubt, could be
easily approached by the great
manufacturing interests. Since
the democrats will be entrusted
with the duty Of writing the
next revenue bill, they should be
given a free hand in handling
the matter and not handicapped
by information furnished from a
republican standpoint. We want
no juggling of figures when the
next tariff bill is written.
