Nov. 2.- A scene of Jeal ousy recuntly occasioned the* culling out of u regiment of cuvulry, a bu tali.on of Infantry and the entire po lice force and resulted in the killlug of neveu persons and tln-wounding of twcuty others in the streets of Oporto. A well known and wealthy local iiicrchaut hud u few weeks ago mar ried a rich and beautiful woman. While walk lug on one of the prlu - c'ipal streets of the city he met an piJisuk’cmsftil oultor fort his wife’s hand. Hot words passed between the two men, quickly followed by blows, and r« velvets wetc- drawn Mean while a number of friends of the tw » men hud come up. In all .some 250 persons assembled around the two disputants. Sides were taken and a regular pitched buttle ensued, arous ing the city. The* Governor turned out the whole police force and directed them to the battlefield, but at tlolr appearance the.’ two parties polncd forces, and turned their weapons upon the po lice, who were completely routed, (•■riving two killed ami >i\ wounded on the ground. Tho Tweniy-nlngth Infantry Regi me-lit and the Seventh Cavalry were thc*ii culled out. The soldiers sur rounded the combatants mid after a short resistance scattered them In all directions, the troopers riding hard at their heels. Eighty people were acrested. The growth of clandestine emigra tion from Portugal Is causing con siderable anxiety to the Portugese authorities and It t-< understood that tlo* Portugese Government will shortly denounce the Ilispano-Portu gesn convention of ISH7 for tile sup pression of the traffic The measures taken by the Span ish government.

The famous fighting hulls of Port ugal displayed tlielr aversion to motor cars recently when an automobile omnibus with ten passengers was proceeding along a country high road near Cinlru. Portugal. A herd of fighting hulls from a I celebrated breeder's establishment suddenly appeared around a corner.

The driver and three passengers were killed outright, while the oth ers were nil seriously injured. Paris, Nov. 2. The artistic strug gle being waged in France has be come even more bitter since the opening of the \utunin Salon. Not only are the painters fighting among themselves, hut .dso the critics, and to a certain extent, the public. I’nllkc the Spring Salon, the au tumn exhibition of the fine arts is always more or less controversial by the very nature of Its contributions. Of the thirty-nine American ar tists represented fifteen of whom are women—practically none comes under the more severe condemnation of the French critics. Of the South Americans, of whom there ure per haps half that number, several par take a little of tin- extremely radical variety. Rut even their products do not justify tlie inclusion of the west ern hemisphere In the region denot ed by the critic.- as of "the outer darkwnoss of barbarism." Out of more than nix hundred and ninety artists exhibiting perhaps thirty fall within tho terms of the censorship. The fact remains, how ever. that public curiosity at the works of the tlility has drawn more patronage than any legitimate inter est in the creations of fho remaining six hundred and sixty. This year the presence of an un usually large number of works by the three' leading modern radical camps post Impressionists, cubists, and futurists- -has made the event even more exciting than it was last year. As a matter of fact only a small proportion of the works of painting or sculpture exposed by men belongs to those schools, although their eccentric canvasses and stat ues got the lien’s share of attention from visitors.
