PARIs, January ll.-At a meeting Of the
Corps Legislatif o-day, NJ. Guion Manpai-
grauX proposed that members of the lmpe-
rial family be amenable To law. He said he
had no intention of creating trouble, but
wished simply to do away with unlawful
exceptions.
Rochefort referred in bitter terms to the
murder of Victor Muir, and said now 1t
was that our people should judge ni> muir
derer who. though cousin to the Emperor,
must not De allowed TO commit crime.

a possibility that the Independent Republic
