The leaders of the Right wing parties which had formed D united frost during the elections, bave, after prolonged consulta- tions, come to the "conclusion that they will not take over the Gov ernment except on the basis of parliamentary majority, composed exclusively of Right parties and groups sympathizing with their sima
The leasers take the view that the moment for assuming power has not yet come, which is taken to mean that they intend to con- front the other Bourgeois groups with the alternative of either forming a minority Government- or assuming an alliance with, the Socialists.

A revolutionary plot was covered to-day in Huesca, on the southern slopes of the Pyrenees, where a group of Radicals made preparations to cut ..the electric cables. blow up strategic bridges and to obstruct the highways as a preliminary to a local insurrec- tion. Five persons, including three women, were, arrested and the police succeeded in seizing 46 bombs, numerous rifles, and great quantities "of amirunition and explosives.—Tran-ocean.

Madrid, November 26. - More trouble seems to be brew- ing in the tiny Republic of Ani dorra which during the past months has been very much in the public eye.

Madrid, November 21. Despite the great electoral vic tory gained by the Right wing parties, the possibility of early return of the Spanish Mon- archy is discounted in informed circles Here: arily, because monarchist sentiment is not pre valling in all Right wing groups. and second, because even con- servative leaders like Gil Robles, who are undoubtedly sumpathiz- ing with the Monarchist cause, are loath to subject the country to a shock which another change of the regime would entail
