(SPECIAL TO "TELEGRAPH")

Lisbon, July 22. Radio Club has intercepted The Portuguese message, from an unknown origin, indicating that the Madrid Government has resigned and a revolutionary junta has been constituted.

A Seville radio broadcast has proclaimed the triumph of the national revolution, which has virtually accomplished its aims, it is claimed, since General Mola, leading northern rebel forces against Madrid, sent an ultimatum to the Government to resign immediately.

It is increasingly apparent here that the rebels control the strategic points in twenty-one provinces in Spain and Morocco, and hence they are apparently able, to take over the country unless the loyalists are able to mobilise an army to defend Madrid.
