TROOPS CALLED
 0UT IN LISBON
Political Riots Thrill Por- tuguese Capital. Demo- crats Try to Take Con- servative Leader. Three Bishops Are Jailed.
[AsSocrArEp PRESS DIspArcH1

LISBON, via frontier, Dec. 25-A political situation arising from the deadlock of the conservatives and the democrats IS rapidly developing The conservative element predominates in the cabinet while nearly half the mem lTrs of the Portuguese parliament are democrats. Both parties are endeavor- ing to organize coup d'etat. The conservative chief Dr. Almaida was hastily summoned back from Switzer- land and on his arrival here made the occasion for a monster demonstration on the part Of the conservatives. The democrats replied with an equally inn posing counter demonstration. The government alarmed at the possibility of trouble, turned out all the available police and troops As soon as the steamer, aboard which Dr. Almaita, was a passenger, was docked there was a tremendous uproar of cheers and groans during which the democrats made a determined rush with the ob- iect of capturing the leader of the rival party.
 4 riot ensued and Dr. Amaida was eXtricated from a perilous position by cavalry which charged through the mob and sent home in an automobile under military escort. The baffled democrats paraded the streets for hours.
 The troops are constantly under arms. The president of the republic has asked the premier to pardon the Archbishop of Braga and bishops of .Portalaga and Lamego, who were con demned last February to three years banishment. request was made to grant amnesty to political prisoners, or at least relax the severity Of their pun ishment, but the premier has replied that the moment is not avorable for granting the pardons. Improvement of the prisons he added has already been decided upon and will shortly be car ried into effect.
