(Received 16, 1.15 p.m.) LONDON, June 15. Slowly but surely General Franco is securing a stranglehold on Bilbao. Not a scrap of news has come to-day direct from Bilbao. All communications have apparently been cut, but the French Consul, who has arrived at St. Jean de Luz, said that Bilbao was virtually surrounded by insurgents. The plight of the population was becoming graver every hour. Fublic services were disorganised.
