ALMOST NORMAL
x Spain After the Revolt Madrid, August 12. Spain is practically normal after popular rejoicings over the failure of the revolt, one result of which has been to establish the Republic more firmly in power. Most of the Monarchist and Catholic newspapers in Spain have been suppressed. Arrests continue, including that of the late Primo de Rivera’s two sons. The Marquis d’Estivel and the whole of the staff of the Chalet of Seville, Sanjurjo’s headquarters during the latter’s brief regime, made a thrilling escape to Gibraltar after -the mob burned ,down the chalet. The marquis and a friend motored to the coast and attempted to reach Gibraltar in a motor-boat, which broke down, whereupon the marquis swam to British territory, where many officers implicated in the revolt are already hiding. General Sanjurjo arrived at police headquarters. He stated that he accepts the whole responsibility, and is prepared to submit to punishment.
