PARIS, July 20, 1913.
Election of President of the Assemay-Parties-
Proudhom and his Doctrines.
My letters will be again deposited to-day fer
the mail. Yesterday Armand Marrast was chosen
President of the Assembly upon the second ballot
His vote was All to 334 for La Crosse, and 20 for
M. BAG. The first vote was 1856 for Marrast, 81
for La Crosse, 81 for BAG. La Crosse was the
candidate of the Theirs party; Bac of the extreme
radicals Marrast Of the administrations yet do not
consider Theirs in opposition to the administration
by any means though he is not in its counsels, nor
are his particular friends in the cabinet yet he and
his friends have great strength in an Assembly so
nearly divided and in which they have an advantage
in experience and talent developed. The socialists
as body, appear to have diminished in power and
numbers very much, since the affairs of May and
June, and Proudhom alone seems to stand forward
to advocate their doctrines The sentiments of this
