CEED IN FIGHTING OFF At.
TAckiNo FORCE.

Lisbon, Oct. 10.-(via frontier y
The royalsts entrenched near the
Galician frontier were attacked by the
republicans yesterday. They respond
ed with hot fire from behind rocks
and wooded heights, compelling the
government troops to retire. The re-
publican artillery was useless.
The royallsts took positions In nat
ural and artificial caves which pro-
tected them from shells.
The royalIsts expect another column
now advancing through the Mimic val
ley. to create a diversion and lead to a
division of the government troops.
Monarchists Keep their line Of COM
munication with Spain open and are
able to receive recruits and supplies
at sources which the republicans can
not attack without quarrel with
Spain. The invaders are able to OBJ
tain plenty OF food from the coun-
tryside, but few men Join them.
Women Arouse Soldiers.
Two hundred peasant women, led
by priests, have been marching from
village to village singing hymns and
cheering for the church, seeking thus
to inspire the men with fighting zeal
Their efforts have been generally fu-
tile.
The government Is placing sailors
from the .warships In the front as much
as possible, because they are more
relentless In fighting the royalists thar
are the soldiers, who are likely at any
time to encounter old comrades among
the officers and men Of the enemy
