Spain Calm Holds Amid Catalan Revolt and Gunpowder Plot
Madrid reports aim to preserve peace at any price as elections favor the existing order. Insurgents push from Asturias toward Calatayud and Tiana while arrests rise at Seville. Suspected preplanned gunpowder blast near Bilbao heightens fears of a central junta. In Barcelona and Saragossa, Prim and Canedo advance, with Ametler’s 4000 men, 5,000 infantry, 300 cavalry, and artillery carving a tense stalemate. Junta splits deepen, yet fidelity of the army persists and threatens a government triumph.
