sick unto death. All depends upon how
long his streugth cam hold out. Darling.

He Wants TO Know the Reason That
the Senate is So Slow in Reporting
President Meline Rules That the
Question Would Be Inadmissable-
Then the Fun Began.
PARIS, May 2S In the Chamber of
Deputies to-day NJ. Laguerre gave notice
that he would interpelate the government
in regard to the delay Of tho Senate in
making report in the case of Gen.
Boulanger
President Melne replied, that while he
was desirou5 t. respect the liberty of the
tribune, it would be impossible to allow NJ.
Laguerre to make such an Interpolation.
The Senate, he said, was entirely independ-
ent in this matter as the issue was of a
Judicial character The chamber had no
right or power to interfere.
LAGUERHE's CLAIM.
nj. Laguerre referred to the recenS inter-
pellation made In the Chamber concerning
the slow ess Of certain judicial action.
The president Of the Senata while
sitting in case Ike that of
Gen. Boulanger was similar to toanexanininr
Judge, and the government had right TO
inform him that the procedure was slow. II
no uepA "dn )eFhlItau on MS lnterpalla-

parllamentarism, and the chamber would
exhibit fear OF unival suffrage.

it subsided M. do Cassag lac declared that
Nj. deline bad taken it upon hi nsef to
assume the guardianship OF the majority.
He asked republicans to show some decency.
and denounced the presidents action as an
iguoble n-ockery Of justice.

Cassaguac. in conclusion, said i the depu-
ties retained any feeling Of shame, cou age,
or duy they would vote to allow Nj.
Laguerre to proceed with his interpella-
tion
The Chamber, after passing a vote CEN
surfing M. de Cassagnac, proceeded with the
order of the day by a te Of 306 TO 2l6
