Cause of Revolution? People are Shocked Out of
Spirit of Revolt--- Manuel is King.
(United Press Telegraph-Cable Service.)
Lisbon, Feb. 4? The feeling throughout Poitugal is
V>day cba-:cterized by mourning. All feeling of resent
ment against the government so far as appears on the sur
face, is loi*t in that of sorrow over the tragic death of the
ruler and the crown prince. This is relieved only by satis
faction over the escape of the queen. She was entirely
unhurt by the guns of the assassins but her loss is shared in
sympathy of the people. She is bearing up wonderfully.
The monarchists party is puttiug forth every effort to
strengthen its position and prevent further outbreak. There
is no indication today of need to resort to bloodshed. Yiany
suspects, however, are being arrested and placed in the
dungeons.
Manuel, the second son, who was in the carriage with
the royal party at the time of the tragedy was yesterday
proclaimed king. He was slightly injured. From a posi
tion two removes from the throne two days ago the tragedy
has placed the crown upon his head.
Message.- of sorrow, condolence and sympathy are be
ing received by the King and his mother from all the
governments of the world.
Washington, Feb. 4 ? President Roosevelt was officially
advised of the de'ith of the king and prince on Sunday.

Lisbon, Feb. 4 ? One of the anarchists, as they are
called here, a Spaniard, arrested for complicity in the kill
ing of the king and prince, committed suicide in the jail
shortly after being locked up. He hanged himself to the
bars of his cell by means of strips of his clothing.
Madrid, Feb. 4 ? The news of the assassination at Lis
bon had a very disquieting effect upon the ministers and
others near the court of Spain. Extra precautions were at
onc? taken to guard the king and royal family from similar
attacks. A large reiuforcement of the guards about the

Fairbanks, Feb. 4. ? The strike of the
miners ordered on the first of Ftbruary
by the officers of the Western Federa
tion of Miuers has proven a dbmal
failure. The operators are employing
non-union men to fill the tew places
made vacant by those who obeyed the
o.'der and quit work. The few who
quit were chiefly men who did not want
to work, anyhow. It is thought the
strike is broken and that there is no
occasion for fear regarding the spring.
