FOREIGN Minister Nachado stated to-day
that these assurances had been received
from the Spanish government. and added:
Madrid has for some time considered
the Portuguese monarchists in Spain near
the border as inoffcnsve persons, merely
finding an asylum from the troubles in
their own country Now Spain is con-
WINGED that these refugees are planning
hostilties against the republic, thus mis-
using the privileges Of asylum.
Wherever the Portuguese are found
lodging near tho frontier they arc ordered
by the government to remove 10 the IN
terror Of Spain. The civil guard on the
Ganciau boundary has been increased by
about one thousand men and is cooperating

was determined TO cut of all irregular COM
mmication and separate completely the
conspirators within the republic.
Asked how long the newspaper CORE
spondents who have gathered here from
other countries would have to wait prob
ably for the projected invasion, Senior
Machado replied with some feeling:
"If you wait for that you will die here.
The monarchists nave no programme and
do not represent national aspirations. The
monarchy is dead and is kept in its coffin
by the lively recollection of the people OF
its incapacities, corruption, squanderings
and dull utilities. No; Portugal has had
enough Of the select unfit"
The minister said nc was pleased that the
United States had been the first power TO
give full recognition to the republic. No
other power, he added, had yet done this.

ment is taking sharp action against the
Portuguese mOnarchists on the frontier.
II necessary. Spain will utilize troops TO

Nevertheless, the Cabinet is determined 10
suppress any attempts against the republic
from this side of the border.

OBJECT TO AMERICAN MEAT
Austrian Socialists and Agrarians
Oppose Importations.

Vienna. July 2a.-The closing session Of
Parliament to-day was devoted TO a discus
sion Of the meat question. The Austrian
Premier, Baron Gsutch Won Frankenthurn
made an emphatic declaration that tie
government would never consent 70 pro-
posals 70 open the frontiers for the i'm
portation Of foreign meat, nor permit the
country TO be dependent upon trsnsoceanic
meat and the so-caHed American meat
trust
This aroused a storm Of angry protests
from the Social Democratic Deputies who
shook their fists at the Premier and Agra
rinns. calling them swindlers and traitors.
The debate was notable for the unanimous
support which the Christian Socialists
gave the Agrarisns in opposing the i'm
portaton Of foreign meat This indicates
there is little chance Of Austrian consum-
ers getting more relief from the new
Parliament than from the old.

HUNT FOR ROBBERS.
Express Car Found With Every Cent
Taken.

New York, April 20.-The New Jer-
sey police are searching today for
clues to the identity of the principals
in an express car robbery which re-
suited last night in the loss of more
than $1,000 in cash and the disappear
ance of about $4,000 worth of val
uables.
Car inspectors at the Weehawkin
terminal of the West Shore railroad
discovered shortly before midnight
that an Adams Express car which had
just come in over the Ontario and
Western railroad had been rifled by
thieves.
Every Trunk Searched.
The car was filled with trunks, suit
cases and small express bundles. The
door to the car stood open. Every
trunk had been emptied. The thieves
did their work thoroughly, for not a
cent in cash in any of the trunks or
packages was left. Every valuable
article was taken. A steel express box
which belonged to the express COM
pany containing over $1,000 was
stolen.
The car passed through Sullivan and
Orange counties, on its way to New
York. Messages have been sent out
over the wires to all points through
which the car passed, asking the po-
lice to be on the lookout for the rob-
bers. The officials of the railroad
company think the robbery occurred
somewhere near Middletown.

BREWSTER TAKES 1T.
Becomes Assistant Attorney General
on May 1.

Senator S. M. Brewster of Doniphan
county will become special assistant at
torney general, taking the place va
Gated by Charles Shukers when he went
to the board of control. John S. Daw-
son, attorney general, announced the
appointment some time ago but Senator
Brewster did not accept the place until
today. He will begin work May L in
the office.
Senator Brewster will be busy for the
next two weeks as special counsel in
one murder case and the prosecuting
attorney in another. Aaron Cole, coun-
ty attorney of Stanton county died and
there is not another lawyer in the
county who can be appointed to the
place. A murder was committed there

prosecute the case. The county officers
and some of the taxpayers petitioned
the attorney general to send an at
torney to them to prosecute the case.
Senator Brewster will handle the work.
The other case is the Means murder
case at Newton and Senator Brewster
will appear as special counsel to assist
the county attorney.
