passed = vote OF urgency and pronounced for
sn immediate discussion.
Cieneneeau thereupon attacked the
government aud denounced the
ministers whose optimism had
committed so many diplomatic and military
faults since the signing OF the Tien Tsiu con-
vention. He said Ferry had committed a
veritAole political crime in refusing to make
peace upon the basis OF that convention, and
in declining the Chinese indemnity OF 81
5OO,oO tails. France, Clemeneeau said,
did wrong il accepting the mediation Of
England, FOR the latter's disinterestedness
was open 10 suspicion. He said Bismarck was
most dangerous enemy, but
WAS still more dangerous A
friend II was necessary, however,
lest the French dignlty and houor should be
compromised. Ciemencezu insisted that
peace with China WAS still possible, and ex-
pressed the belief that Ferry's version OF the
Chinese terms was inaccurate. Ferry here
protested At being insulted. Clemcnceau
concluded by saying that II the cham Der de-
sired policy Of action il ought 10 vote sufii-
cieut credits 10 enable the govern ment 10
declare war now, sni not postpone tie cap
ture Of Pekin until after the elections. The
faults that bad been hitherto committed by
Isolated persons, II continued, will become
the fault Of the Republican party. [Cheers, J
GobletA, while d.sayUWing the actions ~
the goyOrnment sale that he would vote for this
credit, but feared that they would only serve
to prOlong ths present state OF things The

peace, and yet il refused to demand means
10 make war.
