SPANISH REVOLT
ELABORATE PREPARATIONS. PRECIPITATE ACTION. SMUGGLED MESSAGE PUBLISHED. (United Press Association.—By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.) Received January 2, 8.5 a.m. LONDON, Jan. 1. The Daily Express publishes a message smuggled from ’ a prison near Madrid from Senor Zamore, leader of the Republicans, detailing the elaborate preparations made for the revolt in Spain. Senor Zamoro would have been first President. Ho points out that the people were forced to adopt revolutionary methods because the Monarchy showed itself directly culpable of shameful oppression imposed by a dictatorship under which it sheltered, opposing a real constitution.
“The Afonarcliy deserves to fall, and it will fall,” he asserts. Senor Zamore affirms that the plot failed because the enthusiasts at Jaca took action precipitately, three days before the call.
