VICTIMS OF ASSASSINATION
Carlos And The Crown Prince
__
(United Press Telegraph-Cable Service.)
Lisbon, Feb, 3 ? King Carlos and the crown Prince
were assai:iated yesterday and the whole country is now
plunged into mourning.
The assassination took place in the public square and
was perpetrated in a very bold manner.
The terrible affair has had an effect directly contrary
to that which the revolutionists probably expected, for it
has caused a revulsion of feeling in favor of the constituted
authority. -
The assassins were killed by the fire of the government
soldiery immediately following their own successful on
[ slaught. The diet was convened at once and an order sent 1
out over the country directing that all persons arrested for <
taking part in the attempted revolution be brought in and 1
placed in the dungeons of the Lisbon prisons. There is i
much disorder but at the present moment the government 1
troops seem to have the situation more in hand than previ- '
ously, t
The assassination took place in the presence of a multi- ]
tude in the public square. The king and queen, accompa. 1
nied by the crown prince and Prince Manuel, the second c
s )n, were riding in an open carriage. They were receiving f
the plaudits of the loyal people, for it was recognized by all i
bhat the appearance of the royal couple at this time was
ane of great danger to them and, therefore, of courage on
their part. Suddenly, having arrived at the great square,
i group of men sprang forward and, drawing carbines
which they had concealed, fired directly into the carriage,
rhe queen saw the rush of th? men, devined what it meant,
md endeavored to shield the crown prince with her own
Dersoa. But the shot had been too swift and had gone
;rue. The king and the crown prince fell forward in the
;arriage, death being almost instantaneous. The guards
ired upon the men, killing most of them. Many other ar
?ests were made. The whole country is plunged in grief.
