K DEITZ FIRM IN HIS REFUSAL Again Rejects Proposal to Surrender. BLOODSHED NOW LIKELY Deputy in Charge of Posse Near Home of Fugitive Instructed to “Do His Duty”—Has a Force of About Nine- ty Armed Men on the “Firing Line.” Deitz Submits His Conditions for Surrendering. Winter, Wis., Oct. 8.—John F. Deitz has again refused to surrender on terms offered by Governor Davidson, through Attorney .General Gilbert and Private Secretary O. G. Munson. Sheriff Madden has instructed Deputy Thorbahn, in command of the posse near the Deitz homestead, to “do his duty.” Deitz was given another chance by the representatives of Governor Da- vidson to surrender. In spite of his flat and dramatic refusal Attorney General Frank L. Gilbert and Colonel 0. G. Munson, the governor's secre- tary, had another conference with the outlaw. They had nothing more to offer Deitz personally than before They did, however, inform the outlaw that if he gives himself up the war- rants against Mrs. Deitz, Clarence, Myra and Leslie will not be pressed. ‘When Deitz was told that he should at least send his family away from the cabin if he intended to resist arrest. he replied: “No. My family’s place is with me.” The family nodded approval. During his first interview with the governor’s representatives Deitz an- nounced his conditions of surrender. Names Terms of Surrender. “I will surrender,” he said, “if all charges against me are dropped ex- cept the Horel shooting. I am willing to stand trial on that.” Letters ccntaining threats of vio- lence and retaliation have come to ¥red 'Thorbahn, Roy Van Alstyne, £ ff Madden, District Attorney Da- vis and a number of deputies. Mrs. Jeanete Dunster, who accom- paried Elmyra Deitz to the hospital in Ashland, has received a particularly bitter message of denunciation. So far no anarchists or armed Deitz sympa- thizers have appeared. Fred Therbahn, special deputy, who has been placed by Sheriff Mike Mad- den in entire charge of the job of cap- turing Deitz, is enlarging his army of deputies and has about ninety men in the circle hemming Deitz in. If the outlaw refuses again to surrender the trap will close and his killing, if neces- sary, will come any minute. Thorbahn insists that he will not shoot first. According to deputies on the firing line Deitz is moving about his farm freely. Thursday, they say, was the first time that he carried a rifie. He has a pile of stones on the hilltop which he uses as a protected lookout and a small shed on the opposite side of his cabin, close to the Thornapple river, where he takes observations in that direction.

Madison, Wis., Oct. 8.—A score of letters threatening death or contain- ing veiled hints at violence, received by Governor Davidson, were submit- ted by the executive to the police.

AIMS OF THE GOVERNMENT Members of Provisional Cabinet Out- lines What Is Proposed to Be Done in the Way of “Making the Country Over”—King Manuel and the Other Members of the Royal Family Safe at Gibraltar. London, Oct. 8.—The censorship at Lisbon has been relaxed somewhat and news is coming more freely from | the scene of the revolution. The revo- lutionists are in complete control of the capital and the infant republic has been proclaimed also at many points in the provinces. Three regiments of infantry from the country districts have reached Lis- bon and joined the revolutionists. The casualties in the recent fight- g are placed at 3,000. King Manuel is the guest of Great Britain. He remains on board the im- perial yacht Amelie, which has arrived off Gibraltar. Much uneasiness is felt at Madrid regarding the events in Portugal upon the republican cause in Spain and pre- cautions against an outbreak have been taken. Senhor Bernardo Machado, the min- ister of foreign affairs in the new gov- ernment, discussing the aims of the republic, said: “The provisional government has before it a great duty involving much work., It has, in effect, a country to Among other programmes we can say that we will endeavor to| put in operation the programme of the[ republican party. This includes a policy of reform both in the local ad- ministration and in the government of the colonies. “The financial budget is to be equal- ized in tne general interests of the country and it will be made up with honesty and fairness. The national wealth will be developed. “Freedom of the press will be as- sured and all star chamber methods and opportunist laws will be abolished. Public instructions will be completely relieved from religious control and the religious congrega- tions will be suppressed. We plan the establishment of a broad system of public instruction, both primary and advance, under governmental endow- ment.” REMAIN ON BOARD YACHT Members of Portugal’s Royal Family at Gibraltar.

The American cruiser Des Moines and the British fleet, with ships dressed and flying the Portuguese flag at the main mast, fired a royal salute in honor of the members of the Portu- guese royal family who have found refuge here. A royal salute was fired by the rock battery also. MONARCHISTS CANNOT MOVE Railroads at Standstill and Approaches to Lisbon Guarded. Paris, Oct. 8.—According to reports from Portugal the republicans appear to be masters of a section within a radius of about fifty miles from Lis- bon. In this district they are in abso- lute control and will not allow mon- archist sympathizers to so much as stir from their heme towns: The rail- roads are at a standstill and in the neighborhood of Lisbon most of the highways are either barred or ren- dered impassable in some other way. The consensus of opinion in Lisbon appears to be that the final success of the revolutionary movement is still in doubt, depending upon the attitude of the provinces.

London, Oct. 8.—A Central News dispatch from Hendaye says that more than 1,000 were killed in the fighting in Lisbon Tuesday and Wednesday.
