They have arrested, as one of the bolshevist strike directors, Miguel Correia, a former railway employe, said to be one of the most active propagandists of bolshevism in Por- tugal. The police had long been searching for Correia, who some time ago was arrested in Spain as a bol- shevist agitator and brought to Lis- bon by two Americans. belonging to the international police, but who was set free.
