Gambetta's Prosecuti0n-The Reason
why He is Prosecuted.

LONDON, Aug. 29-The News Paris des-
patch of Tuesday night says that Gambetta
has not yet received a summons. The law Off
GERS find difficulty in framing an indictment.
A ministerial council is held today to consider
the matter. The government hopes to suppress
all reports of the trial by the correctional po-
lice The project for the prosecution of Gam
beta before jury on more serious charges, is
said to be abandoned, because then the fullest
publicity would be inevitable.
The Times correspondent telegraphs that the
reason for Gambetta's prosecution, as furnished
him by one of De Broglie's admirers, is that De
Broglie has resolved upon the prosecution be-
cause he fOresees the possibility of defeat at
the elections. and thinks that if that defeat led
to Gam betta's elevation to the premiership, it
would be a disaster for France. President
MacMabon could never accept as premier a
man convicted of Insulting him.
PARIS, Aug 90 The public prosecutor yes
terday issued summons which will be served
on Gambetta. Witnesses will shortly be heard
BY the magistrate charged with the preliminary
examination. The charge of 'inciting to hatred
aud contempt of The government has been
abandoned. as it would involve the trial before a
jury at the assizes newspaper reports could not
nave been prevented. OF the citenses triable
by the correctional tribunal an insult to minis
tiers is punishable with from five days to one
years imprisonment and fine OF from 70 to
2000 francs; insult TO the PRESIDENT with
from l00 to 600 francs, and attacks on the Pres-
idents constitutional rights and authority with
from three months to five years imprisonment
and fine of from 800 to 5000 francs. Three
other prosecutions are instituted. Chardon,
tho senator from Savoy is charged with max
ing political speech at an illegal meeting, and
PHILIPPE And Durau. ex-deputes, are charged
with making seditious speeches in the council
general at Rhone.
A report is current that Gambetta will prob.
ably be prosecuted as an accomplice of the
papers which printed his Lille speech Public
attention is beginning to be directed to the
question of manifesto which it is believed
President MacMahop will address to the nation
on the eve of the election.
