"In Spain, the civil war continued. Marshal Serrano, head of the new executive power, made the Carlists suffer a defeat in May 1874 at Bilbao; this military success of the "dictator" was the signal for a redoubled rigor against the various popular parties.

(...)

Here is some news from the Bulletin (June 7, June 21 and July 19): "The assassinations committed by the government in San Fernando (near Cadiz) cry out for vengeance. Sixty-six workers have disappeared from this locality. The people of San Fernando know that these unfortunates, after being arrested, were taken aboard a ship, and that there, in the middle of the night, they were sewn into sacks and thrown into the sea with cannonballs on their feet. The author of this crime, Captain-General Arias, has just received the salary for his crime: he has been named Minister of the Navy."

(...)

The annual Congress of the Spanish Federation [of the International Workingmen's Association] took place in Madrid on June 25, 1874, and the following days; the police, despite all their vigilance, could not prevent the delegates of forty-seven local federations from meeting and deliberating.

(...)

Our organ reproduced the following passage, where the Congress announced the firm resolution of the Spanish internationals to apply the law of retaliation to the bourgeoisie: "From this day forward, and until our rights are recognized, or the social revolution has triumphed, every exploiter, every idler living off rent, every parasitic capitalist and pleasure-seeker who, trusting in the impunity promised him by the State, has committed a serious offense against us or has violated our rights, will fall under the blows of an invisible arm, and his property will be delivered to the fire, so that our justice is not accomplished for the benefit of the legal heirs."
