THE FRANCo-CHINEsE WAR.

A panic was produced on the
Paris Bourse on March 9th, by bad
news from the forces in Tonqun.
At that date it was said that only a
great French victory in Tonquin
would save the French Ministry.
Instead of a victory, French
defeat was the next announcement.
The Chinese carried the key of the
French position at Langson on the
9th of March,. The French troops
retreated beyond Dong Dong. Gen.
Negrier was severely wounded.
The Chinese forces were said to
have numbered $4,000. The tele-
grams from Gen. De Lisle were
silent as to the French losses, but
Paris papers of the 30th March said
the killed and wounded French num-
bered 1900. De Lisle's dispatches
called for reinforcements in an i'm
ploring tone, as if the situation was
desperate.
The Paris Gaulois says one
fourth of the whole effective French
force at Langson was left on the
field. General Glovenilli was en-
trenched in critical position at HUI
Dohan, being surrounded and his
retreat cut off by $4,000 Black
Flags.
Tremendous excitement ensued in
Paris upon receipt Of the news. In
the Chamber of Deputies an up
roarious scene occurred. When the
Premier had begun his statement of
the situation, he was loudly Kissed
from the galleries. Atthe close of
his speech Deputies of the Right
sprang to their feet, shouting,
Down with the wretch" and above
the din Clemcnceau could be heard
screaming TRAITORS y
At the opening of the session,
March 30Lh, the Premier asked for
a vote of credit of 10000, 900 francs
on account of the military opera
tions in China. The motion was re-
jectsd by vote of 30S to 16l.
Ferry Immediately announced the
resignation of the Ministry.
That night motion of urgency
for vote to impeach the Ministry
was rejected by 304 to lGl.
Royalists predict the downfall Of
the Republic as the outcome of the

ment regarding the Afghan ques-
ton, the Government firmly adher-
ing to the policy agreed upon by
the great political parties, while at
the same time Government officials
were availing themselves Of every
means to arrive at u satisfactory
solution of the difficulty. He was
unable to fix II date when negotia-
tons would be completed. The
Amer of Afghanistan had instruct
ed his chiefs to observe neutrality.
There was talk in the London
press on the 9th of England having
sent an ultimatum, containing the
proposal that both the Russians and
the Afghans should withdraw from
the disputed territory, and that
Russia declined the proposal, on the
ground that the withdrawal of her
troops would be the source of humi-
liation to Russia.
In the House of Commons, on
March 30th, however, the Marquis
of harrington, Secretary of State
for War, said the last advices the
Government have received from st.
Petersburg were TO the effect that n
peaceful solution of the Russo-Af-
CHAN question was more promising
than at any time since the difficulty
arose.
Paris opinion is given against the
probability of war. 1t is held there
that Il war would be such a terrible
blow to the banking interests of
Europe that it is sure to be averted.
Wheat in London dropped two
cents q bushel, March 30th, owing
to the more pacific news.
The conteists of telegram from
the Russian Minister De Giers to
the Russian Ambassador in London,
shown to Earl Granville March 31st,
were withheld from Parliament until
preliminaries had been settled for a
meeting of the Joint Boundary Com
mission.
1t was reported on latest date that
Lord Dufferin, Viceroy of India, was
negotiating with the Ameer for a
formal treaty recognizing British
Protectorate over Afghanistan.
Until peace is assured the existing

serves, The purchase of transports
and the despatch of, re-enforcements

against entering upon a war until
