(SOCIAL REVOLT
STIRS PORTUGAL
[yarious Threatening Events
Have Occurred Since
First of May
Llabon. June 20. Portugal,
especially Lisbon, is In the throes of
ian incipient "social revolution." Since
■the first of May. when the working
classes made a strong and peaceful
demonstration of their force by an
Immense procession through the
streets and in front of the ministries,
-various threatening events have oc
curred. . .. .
Unsatisfied with the eight-hour day
.granted by the government, workers
"downed tools" and two big " r f*
have destroyed tWo of the finest old
edifices in Lisbon. The first fire oc
curred in the Postal Money Order
department, which is attached to the
.Bourse, the government offices and
the customhouse, part of the mag
nificent arcaded buildings of the
.principal square of Lisbon, on the
aiorthern bank of the Tagus river.
The strike of the Waterworks Com
pany's employes coincided with the
lire which broke out in three places
.simultaneously. The water supply
-was cut off. so that the firemen were
helpless, and when they tried to
Kump water from the Tagus their
ose was cut.
llnny ArresV.
j Many arrests were made of persons
Iguspected of being the authors of
[this act of sabotage. The incendi
igries have not yet been discovered,
(*nd the government is continuing
llts investigations and making many
rtirrests. The damage is enormous; a
tgreat. number of money orders were
Iburned.
| On the following day, the prisoners
g>f the ancient and historical I.im
hbeiro prison revolted. They smashed
furniture and doors with parts of
their iron bedsteads and after setting
the prison afire with their mattresses
they rushed out shouting "vivas" for
the social revolution. The old build
ang. which had been a royal palace,
"built in the 13th century, was soon
3n flames and part of it was burned.
ISome of the 730 inmates escaped, but
Aroops were immediately detailed to
■cordon the neighboring streets and
hundreds were caught and removed
to the Mensanto fort and other
prisons.
llnl.Hli<-vlk.ii Active
There have been various other
remall fires in public buildings for
(the past two days, one at the naval
tersenai and certain persons have
Itieen arrested with firing material in
(their possession. This has made the
Igovernnient very alert. Bolshevik
{propaganda has been widely spread
fin the working classes and some of
rthe arrested men turned out to he
(Russian Bolsheviki.
The Minister of laibor has re
ieigned owing to divergences of opin
ion with his colleagues as to the
that have been taken to
Muell the agitation among the
(-workers.
The strikers have paralyzed busi
inesa No electric cars have been run-
Wiing since May 1 and all the muni
cipal workmen are on strike, so that
ustreet cleaning, burying the dead, and
[■all other municipal work is being
Mone by soldiers and volunteers, it
lis said that a general strike is being
{planned, but public opinion is so in-
Fccttsed at the fires that a reaction ap
ipears to be setting in, and several
{societies and associations have made
(public protests against such extrein
4st acts.

tXANAGEK OK YANKEES
SEES BASEBALL BOOM
New York—Miller Huggins, man
lager of the Yankees, believes that the
pext few years will be the greatest
2n baseball. He is particularly pleased
(With the outlook in th~ minor leagues
(In which young plr/ rs are being
-developed.
"The big minors specialized for
years in taking the players who have
one back," said Huggins, "and this
[kept many a youngster from getting
ten opening. The world war and the
(consequent collapse of the minors
[brought about new conditions. Sala
rries have fallen to such an extent in
[the minors that they no longer appeal
rto many of the players who were ac
customed to draw down big money.
ENow it is the turn of the ambitious
{young fellows, who are willing to
IPtart in at smaller salaries. These
lare going to grow finally reaching the
iAtage that they held from 1908 to
11913."
