CRISIS IN SPAIN
APPEARS CERTAIN
Sudden Return of King From
Vacation Believed to Pre-
sage Cabinet Change.
By tho Associated Press.

BY tho Associated Press,
FORT VENDRES: F'ranco.Spanish
Frontier, August 9.-An atmosphere
which seems to presage an approach
ing crisis in the governmen mt has been
created in Madrid by the precipitate
return to the capital yesterday of
Summer vacation at Santander, and
by the coincident arrival of Premier
Primo Rivera. .
Incidents connected with the trip
Of the military dictator to Morocco
and his subsequent campaign in
Galicia and Asturias for the purpose
of propaganda in favor of the military
cabinet. have caused the impression
that change is likely to occur.
The King. under ordinary circum-
stances. would have received the
chief of government at Santander.
where he could have signed routine
DEGREES with the same facility as at
Madrid. 1t was suddenly announced,
however. that the Premier had
abandoned his visit to Leon. whe nee
it would have been easy to proceed
with the King. and was coming to
Madrid. At the same time. 1t was an
nounced that the King would arrive
by train shortly afterward.
Rumors about differences among
the numbers of the military direc-
the reference Of Senor Primo Rivera
to his enemies as fools" has in
creased in frequency hourly.
1t is commonly reported that Gen.
Marquis de Cavalcanti, head of the
Kings military household, is ex-
tremely discontented.
Significant Statement.
He is credited with having said:
To-day am fool; tomorrow will be
prime minister" While 1t Is impos-
sible to learn whether he actually has
made such a declaration, it is gener-
ally believed that he will play an
important part should a crisis de-
velop
The party Of former Premier Jose
Sanchez Guerra is the strongest in
existence, but when 1t received a cool
dismissal after the military coup
d'etat of September, 1923, it's leaders
declared they would not accept a call
to power because a deliberate breach
had been made of the constitution.
Most Of the liberals maintain a SINH
lar attitude, and consequently it Is
probable that any political party
which would be requested to take
the reigns of government would, be-
fore doing SO, demand a reform OF the
constitution which would prevent the
likelihood Of future forcible over
turning of the administration.
Opposes Military Control.
Gen. Cavalcanti does not favor a
continuation of a complete military
dictatorship. with the exclusion from
participation in the government of the
other classes of the country, and con-
sequently he Is receiving a great deal
of support. This, however, cannot
be expressed by the newspapers be-
cause of the existence of a stern CEN
sorship, which excludes from publ
cation views contrary to those held
by the present military dictator.
Exactly what would occur in the
event Of the fall Of Primo Rivera can
not be foreseen, since none of the
politicians has had an opportunity to
declare his policy. and the political
factions are extremely numerous. The
Socialists have clearly announced thai
they are not desirous of taking an
active part in the government, but
none Of the other factions can be
eliminated as possibility.

FEAR more RIOTS
AT INDIA FESTIVAL
Hindus and MosIems, at
Swords Points, Carefully
Watched at Delhi.
By the Associated preas.

~ thc hsSociAteQ Pfe69.
LONDON. August s.-Dispatches
from India state that the tension be-
tween the Hindus and Moslems which
caused serious rioting in Delhi a fort
night ago has partly subsided, though
the situation Is carefully watched by
the authorities, who are taking extra
precautions to prevent a renewal Of
rioting on the occasion Of the forth
coming Muharram festival
Controversy has arisen in India as
10 whether the military were respon-
sibie for the firing on rioters and the
kI!linS OF some of them in the Delhi
anair. Two Of the vernacular pa
pers. the Tel and the Argun. at Delhi.
controvert the official statement that
fire.
Due TO street Fight.
:, The first official reports received at
the india Office here stated that the
deaths were due to street fighting be-
tween the Hindus and Moslems, and
dispatches said two deaths had been
caused by firing by armed police. Re-
ports charging that the military fired
on the people and killed some of them
bring official reply that it was not
the military. but the police who killed
According to the oficial report to
the india office. the accentuation Of
communal strife at Delhi began with
the approach of the festival Of Bak-
which Is observed by the Mohamme-
dams. fs the sacrifice OF cows, animals
which the Hindus hold sacred. Clashes
between the Moslems and Hindus are
not unusual at this observance, and
many deaths occurred at similar riots
at Behar six years ago.
One feature Of the Moslem celebra-
ton particularly displeasing to the
Hindus rs the way the cows intended
for sacrifice are taken through the
Hindu communities.
Oftentimes the police prevent these
professions. 1t is customary, say the
reports. for the police and military
to make special arrangements for
protecting the conflicting elements of
the population during such festivals,
and such arrangements were made at
Delhi previous to the recent troubles.

He finally found fault with God

His mothers death made a great

He wanted to make friends. but found
he could not. He made himself into

Asked as to Leopold's criminalistic
tendencies by Walter Bachrach OF
defense counsel, DR. Hubert said
Leopold stole some stamps at the
age of 9 from his cousin, stole his
brothers necktie and traded 1t for
cigar bands, of which he WAS making
a collection, justifying the thefts by
right; I wanted them" He also stole
some fruit from a stand once.
Bridge System Failure.
The bridge cheating plan Leopold
evolved with Loeb was not a success,

They were not keen enough to
make it a success and lost money by

he preferred to settle iown and get

Leopold said that he had no fear
of being hanged. saying death was the

crushed poison from antiseptic tab

the hospital, however, were unable to
determine definitely that the child

Revenge Charged.
The motive ascribed in the first
reports was that of revenge inasmuch
as it was known that Middleton had en-

morrow. When informed of this,
Manuel is said silently to have shown
intense displeasure.

been told to be careful and not leave any
