Its Jurisdiction Questioned.

PARIS, Aug. 12,-The senate court to-
day resolved itself into a legislative
chamber, and on the advice of Nj. De-
velle raised the question of the courts
competency to try Gen. Boulanger.
The president Of the senate will request
the members to pledge themselves to
secrecy regarding the proceedings. 1t
is expected that the members of the
Right will refuse to give such pledge.
The members of the Right refused to
give pledge of secrecy on the ground
that as the Indictment had been widely
published they had the right to publicly
express their opinions on the case. The
Right moved that the court was incom-
petent to try Gen. Boulanger, because
the allegations in the indictment did
not constitute treason. The motion was
rejected by a vote of 212 to 81. The
Right afterwards met and decided to
take no further part in the proceedings.
