Scandal In the French Capital.
Paris, March 3.-The journals of
this city unite in furious attacks upon
Leon Say, minister of finance, which
portend another assault upon the min
istry even il De Marcere. of the interior,
obtains a vote of confidence. Leon
Say, who was former clerk Of Roths-
childs, and known to be their partner
in many affairs, is attacked for his
conduct relative to the conversion of
the five per cent. rentes, with violence,
which must probably lead to his resig-
nation. 1t is a notorious fact that
Rothschilds on Wednesday last made
enormous purchases of five per cents. at
most deprecated prices. The general
opinion is that never In the whole
financial history of France was there
an equal scandal.
Minister De Marcere expressed a
desire that Interpolation in regard to
police magistrates be discussed imme-
diately. An article In La France,
signed by Girarden, discussing the vote
by which the chamber fixed debate for
Monday, says the cabinet has lived its
time. has lost all power over the ma
jority, and the situation imperatively
requires the formation of cabinet
presided over by leader of the major
ity. 1t also says the present ministry
has but q short time to live, and that
the radicals will speedily succeed to
power.
