HEATED CONTESTS AHEAD

LISBON. Aug 27.-The political si,u-
alton in Portugal is taking serious
turn The Republican party Is completely
divided. The advanced element under

visional minister OF justice. and the con =
servdtive section, under Antonio Alme'-
da. provisional minister OF tho interior.
and SENIOR CBmacho. declared open war
at the elections for the presidency, the
Modcrates winning the day.
The difference in tho strength OF the
two sections is not great snd President
concilia,jng the rival factions. but the
chances OF his succeeding are not con-
sidcred rosy. II Is probable that after
the formation OF a new cabinet. parlia-
ment will be adjourned. The reopeninE
OF parliament. however. is expected TO
lead 10 heated contests In the house.
One OF tho chief measures OF the new
ministry will be the redrafting OF the sep
arstion law. Though considered just IN
principle drastic clauses were inserted
Costa, who thereby gained the support OF
the extreme Republicans.
The general opinion Is that the gov
eminent Will be unable 10 resist the
lister Costa. and in such case dissolu-
ton OF the chamber will be inevitable.
Strikes threaten 70 have q serious ef-
feet on the country. Forty thousand

posite Lisbon, which are centerE OF the

perpetrated. Official buildings are closed
