Ship Loaded With Arms, Ammunition and Cash, Equipped by Duchess, Is Stranded. Munich. —The Post publishes a story to the effect that a ship was recently fitted out with arms and ammunition by the Duchess Carl Theodore of Bavaria, in an attempt against the Portuguese republic. The duchess also sup-

plied a large sum of money, which waa aboard the vessel. The ship started from London for Lisbon, but was stranded on the Belgian coast. The duchess has appealed to the Belgian king, who is her son-in-law, to give up at least the cash, but King Albert has refused. The Post asserts that several banka have undertaken obligations to support the former King Manuel, in case the republic is overthrown.
