SPANISH POLITICS
RIVERA’S ASSEMBLY ENDED. (By Cable—Press Assn.—Copyright.) LONDON, February 16. “The Times’s” correspondent at Madrid says: Daybreak to-day saw a dozen firemen fixing long ladders and removing a signboard “National Consultative Assembly,” which General De Rivera had caused to be erected, blotting out the inscription of the Chamber of Deputies on the Chamber buildings. Thus the earliest opportunity was taken of affording visual proof that King Alfonso last night signed a decree abolishing General De Rivera’s Assembly, which was a bugbear for Parliamentarians. Count Remanonos, who was among the various politicians whom General Do Rivera ostracised and fined, and the doyen of the Deputies, with childish glee, carried off the big letter “A,” intending to hang it over his desk as a souvenir of General De Rivera’s downfall.
