Following the proclamation of the accession of the nineteen-year-old Manuel Due De Beja to the throne of Portugal after the murder of King Carlos and the crown prince, it. has become known that Premier Franco barely escaped assassination at the hands of con federates ot those who killed the monarch. ' Benor Franco, who Was in his home in the outskirts of the city, guarded by troops, was saved only after a battle with a force of re publicans who had beleaguered the estate. When the would-be assassins attacked the Franco palace, the troops on guard opened fire and after the exchange of several volleys the attackers drew off, carrying their killed and wounded Practically all the cltv in in Bllence, the people keeping to their I Minister of the Interlor-Senhor ei homes in anticipation of possible ! rao- succeeding Franco, who heht this homes in anticipation of possible outbreaks.

Outside the temporary royal tomb .oTroBrof r7- .nr strong' squadrons or cavalry and rong bodies of police are on guard to pre-. vent further outrages.

Two white men went to the home of Mr. S. L. Buck, which Is located in one of the most populous and re spectable neighborhoods of the city, and knocked at the door. Mrs. Buck responded, and one of the men askej her if they could se cure lodging. She replied that they could not, as they did not conduct a boarding house; . Then they asked where Mr. Buck, her husband, was, and she unguard edly told them he; was at church. The men then grabbed and chokod Mrs. Buck into submission and un consciousness; knocked her down, covered her head with a cloth, and then outraged her repeatedly. She notified the neighbors as soon as she could and the police were quickly on the scene, but the men have so far eluded them.
