PARIS, June co. New York Herald Cable
Special to The BEE. The weather con-
tinues warm and bright, with light easterly
breezes. Clouds gather now and then, Just
enough to frighten people into carrying UNI
Drellas. The barometer this afternoon was
20 degrees Fahrenheit. The Bois de Boulogne
/. still as full as ever of smart turnouts,
and the average daily attendance at the ex-
hibition is over 100000 Paris scarcely shows
signs of coming to an end although for the
first time this year 1 noticed several straw
hats on the veranda of the Jocky club, and
these are to watering places what swallows
are to summer.
The parliamentary atmosphere is heavily
charged with electricity, but there has
been no real storm yet. The sitting
last night was very lively Que and fur
nished once again an additional proof of the
alliance existing between the right and the
Boulangists. M Pichon was brought face
to face with an Interpolation addressed to
the keeper Of seals in reference to the dis
closures made during the Meyer trial
of the efforts of the Boulangsts
to procure supposed compromising docu-
ments from that absconding stock broker. In
accordance with parliamentary customs the
minister declared that he was at the orders
of the chamber, which decided to wind the
affair off the reel at once.
Mr.. Thenevet accordingly went into the
history of the Yvan de Woestyne- Meyer
correspondence, the members of the left
vigorously applauding every phrase which
| told against the right. When the minister
quoted Jacques Meyer, M. de Cassagnac
| called out that the evidence of man who
had been condemned for embezzlement was
worth nothing.
laa.M Mr. TheYeaet respopded that. NJ, WAN de
Woestyne's word was not Of any greater
| value.
So the debate went on for some time
| longer, the subject under discussion being
really of very little general interest. Finally
Thevenet introduced Arthur Meyers name
| stating that he had an intention of entering
| into his relations with Jacques Myers.
| The conservative deputies protested
| at this, De Cassagnac making himself
| prominent by asserting that Trevenet had
| been confederate Of Jacques Meyer in the
| whole affair, which had simply been Matched
| up by the police to injure the right.
| When invited by the president to retract or
repeat what he had said, the editor Of Auto
rite refused to do the former, and his expul-
| sion from the chamber was accordingly
voted by majority of half the members of
the right, and all the Boulangists present
| left, the left meanwhile applauding.
| After this incident the chamber, or all that
was left of it, discussed the question
whether it would be advisable to prosecute
| persons who had sought to bribe Jacques
Meyer, it being finally decided by 1868 votes
| against nothing that such a course would be
advisable.
| After this the house resumed the debate
on the colonial estimates and budget of
| finances, the majority of articles being
passed without discussion.
The Rice d. Alger was in a state of excite
ment this morning at half past z o'clock,
when neat little boures were out for their
bread and morning milk. They made long
stay to see the Americans preparing to start.
| After substantial early breakfast the boys
! came out and strapped their haversacks upon
| their steel steeds. During the operation a
waiter from the hotel had been round for a
| large bundle of Heralds, which were rushed
| for by the Cyclists. AT s O'Clock Fluett
| called as usual
'Are you readya Prepare to start"
| Mr.. Higgins, with his musical voice,
| shouted:
"Wait have word to say, boys. What's
| the matter with the Paris edition of the New
| York Herald'
"That's all right" replied the boys in
| chorus, and followed their reply with hearty
cheers. When asked if they had enjoyed
their stay in the French capital, the Amer
leans, one and all, replied;
"Yes. If a man cannot enjoy himself in
| Paris he is not fit to live"
Many of them would fain have remained
longer, but the itinery is prepared and all
arrangements made IN advance, SC
away they went, en- route fol
Geneva They breakfasted at Meluu
and arrived little later at Fontainebleau
where they will rest tomorrow, visiting its
wonderful forests and environs.
