o LISBON REVOLT PUT DOWN WITH ' AN IRON HAND LONDON, April 21 (Hy Assoriat- cil I'l-f'ss.) I-atent advici'H received from official quarrorH from JJkIioii today indicate all is fjuiet In (lit l'or luyui'Hu capital and that order linn licen restored after Saturday'H short lived revolt. The attempted coup was started Saturday and there was violent fight ing throUKhout the nlhl, tho move ment only neinpr quelled ycHtitrduy when the rebellious troops gave up their arms and were confined in bar racks. The revolt was led hy Major Filo 7iuno Camara, who had under him several hundred men, cavalry, artil lery and infantry. .Many of the revolutionists were killed or wounded when regular troops drew a cordon about their headquarters "d showered them with shrapnel. Lisbon i dlspaUrhes have given no estimate of the number of casualties but they are said to have been comparatively high for such a hrief period of activity. THINK OF PEDDLERS "Many times I have looked long ingly at the neat blue and white sign, 'No 1'cddlers or Agents Allowed,' which adorns t lie doorstep of a hoijsu nearby. I've wondered if it really proved cffectlvo. and I've longed for courage to nail one like it on my own front door. Id very husy house-wife knows how a day can bo utterly ruined, to say nothing of tho diimnge done to hur disposi tion when she is culled time and Kiin to her front door by salesmen. "One day as I was mixing P'1' orutit, buz.-z-z went the front door hell. I determined to Ignore tho summons, but tho perseverence of my caller overcame that resolution. VV'ith befloured handH I wont to the door. '(Jood morning, madam, ' a pleasant young man greeted me. 1 have here a wonderful little Inven tion, a labor-saving, time-saving and money-saving device. .Something every woman should have In her home. Now, madam, If 1 may just step Inside and t "I am not largo, hut only over my dead body could he havo entered my home Jucl then. While he-paused for breath, I assured him that I was not interested and haHtily cUmed the door , before hu could resume his oration. "Hack to tho pies I hastened, nc eompunled by that uncomfortable feeling that always remains after committing a discourteous act. Per haps thirty peaceful minutes elapsed, then the door bell rang again. This time a woman presented mo with a nice little sample of a new wash ing powder and spent ton minutes in a rapid-fire dlscourso on the merits of her product. When she finally departed, 1 wondered why I hail never before appreciated thuBe unkind Jokea concerning the 'tongues of women.' "Later on I had only to convince a nice old gentleman that neither I nor any of my Immediate relatives cared to purchase a coupon entitling us to a duzen photographs with one ten-hy twelve enlargement absolu tely free. "Kinnlly, nrrlvng at tho luncheon a trifle late, I excused myself by saying that if thres ngonts hadn't Interrupted my morning, 1 would have arrived on time. Conversation had been lagging until that remark, then, true woman fashion, everyone began to talk at onco and they were nil recounting experiences witli agents agents and peddlers. 13 o inoaniim the daily interruptions and loss of time. . " 'Hut you don't have to answer the bell.' someone will say. Of course not I Acting upon tho ad vice of a friend who never answered her door without first peeping out, 1 tried that once. It worked beau tifully until my husband sent a man nut from the of fico unannounced, to net somo valuable papers that be wanted In a hurry. Well, he looked like an ordinary agent to me. Ho I refused to answer his persiHtent ringing of my door bell. "There Is seemingly no end to the variety . of commodities that the salesmen offer at my front door. . Kverythlng from an electric washer to a box of flea powder 1ms been offered me In the course of a few months. of late tho . silk hosiery agents have been more numerous .than any others. A favorite 'stall' of the peddlera is to tell you that Mrs, So-and-So is an old customer of his and that be Just sold her cer tain products. "Vou havo no redress In case you arc displeased. It certainly Isn't as convenient as returning things to the store, especially if you have a 'charge it,' n the little niii said. "Home day J hope to pock up a nowspapcr and read that some woman In tho legislature- has intro duced a bill prohibiting all house-to-hotmo canvassing for ( he purpc.se of soiling any commodity whatso ever. I'd like to see some candidate for public office make that one plank (if bis plat form. "St i ani:c it nm:M seem to attempt to tee these hMi'!t'-tn-hnni Kale men H'sp t the puav of the limiir and to establish themselves iO stores where people could seek .eir wares If they so deired. ltut wouldn't it be a progressiva stop n step toward the further emancipa tion of the houwlff? At least It Is plennant to dream of that gala day jfclten I Can wily forth and nail upon my own front door tiwt covet cd blue and white Wn, "No Peddlers a or Agents Allowed," no longer doubt IIIH in I'llfi-uvi'liriiB, Kill AlliMMliK that behind It stands the great, grim luwG.'hich even tho most audacious, salesman dare not defy." gj 9 2 LITTLE INTEREST IIEFILIN, April 21 (tty Associat ed Press.) With the decisive ballot ing In Germany's first presidential election only a week off, popular In interest In tho fight between former chancellor Marx and Field Marshal Von J linden burg continued dormant or of a wholly m-gatlve character. Von Hlndenburg's campaign got under way at , Hanover yesterday when the candidate of the nationalist bloc gave the first formal public ut terance of his political program. He Is being presented to the German voters not only as a national hero but as a man who Is above parties and partisan politics, and who is ordained to bring to the fatherland a much needed national unity. Republican campaigners are mak ing their fight on Von illndenburg not only because of his political en tourage, but also on the score of his personal qualiflcalitrns and advanced years. "If you lovo Von llindenburg, vote for Marx," Is one of their campaign slogans. Or. Marx is making International reconciliation, continuation of Ger many's foreign policies and a 'defense of her economics the main points of his appeal to the voters. Tho united right thus far has con ducted Its campaign on paper only, avoiding discussion of international or economic Issues and Is apparently ataking all on Von lllndenburg's pcr- toaailty and bis ability to capture voles from tho former stay-at-homes to insure victory. PACIFIC FLEET IS NEARSNG ISLAND, KEY TO HAWAII HAN FItANOIHlIO. April 21. (I3y tho Associated Press) Six days out bound on Us mission of recapturing tho Island of Onhu from the "block" or "enemy" force which holds J la wall, the Tnited States fleet In Its epochal exercises is utilizing almost every unit of Its force before con tact Is made in the effort of notion. Hardly a moment passes In the 24 hours that does not flat) some de partment of offense or defense In the armada of 12" ships cavorting thru some maneuver of naval action or utilisation , of the paraphernalia f fighting npparatus aboard. Communications, first essential to full tactical control of all units wh Icli Is necessary to Insuro proper team piny and co-ordination of of forts to utilize the striking power to the utmost Is one of tho prime elements of activity aboard. I lad in Silence, enforced to keep from tho enemy tho knowledge of the concentration's position speed and course, and "darken ship" which forbids the use of searchlight or blinker at night, prevent the testing of . communication facilities except during the night. The heart of the day signaling is the l. S. S. California, flagship of Admiral H. S. Itohison, commander in chief of the "battle fleet, whose task is to capture Oahu. Tho signal bridge of the great dreadnaught and its fountain head, tho fleet communi cation- office, are reminiscent of a broker's office in Wall street on a "million share day," with tho bustle of activity in preparation nnd des siminalLon of commands to the com manders of the 127 vessels.

Hycij Agent, MeUforti, , REFUSES TO REPLY 10 KAISER QUERY LONDON, April 21 Field Marshal Von HlndenbuiK who hitherto has re fused interviews says Hcuter's corres pondent at Hanover consented to re ply to a questionnaire submitted hy the correspondent. i "The field marshal declined to un swer a question as to whether he would prefer to see the former kaiser on" the throne to heiiiK himself presi dent," says the correspondent. Asked whether he was prepared to simi a security pact guaranteeing the frontiers of Krance and Helgium, ho replied that thltt matter was still the subject of international discussion and therefore lie could not personally in tervene. Asked whether he was of the opin ion that the present eastern frontier of Germany must l altered' In Ger many's favor. Von Hindenburg is quo ted as repliylng: . . "I share this opinion with all other Germans, but in order not to endanger peace tho question must be settled by negotiations." 1 Asked: "Will you, when president, lo all Jn your power to see that the military clauses of the Versailles treaty are fulfilled?" he . answered: "The treaty Is binding for us until it is altered by a new agreement between the parties to the treaty. The mili tary prescriptions of the treaty are naturally part of the fulfillment of the treaty." To the final question as to wheher CURTLY REFUSES GENEVA, April 21 (By the As soeiatod rreas) Soviet Russia has refused to participate In the forth coming conference on the control of traffic In arms. The refusal was contained in i stiffly worded telegram from For eign Minister Tchitcherin, pointing out that the soviet government had repeatedly proclaimed Its negative attitude toward the League .of Jsa tions as presently organized. Referring to the invitation to at tend the arms traffic conference, the soviet foreign minister said: "In the present case, the soviet government finds It impossible to collaborate with the league In study of a question which implies Inter ference by the League of Nations In the internal affairs of the soviet re-public." Germany was capable of a defensive war, Von Hindenburg replied: "My opinion as a military ex pert is that Germany is not even capable of defending herself against a small neighboring state, for states like Poland and Czecho Klovakia possess much bigger standing armies than we do and are protected by military al liances, so that, in any event, we ' should be confronted by a power whose armament was much su perior to ours."
