For Recalcitrant DEPUTIES,

PARIS, February 25th.-The Chamber Of
Deputies today made new rule for the
government Ct It's proceedings with partic-
uiar reference 10 the recalciirant deputies,
who, being called TO order declined TO take
their seas or otherwise insolenily desed
the command Of the spes ker, 50 that the
authority of the House as represented By
the speaker is seldom respected unless
actual force is appealed 10. The trouble
reached its climax in the recent revolt of
the Boulangists, who practically made
riot in the House. The new rule afixes a
penalty for every refusal on the part OF a
member to obey the order of the President.
The penalty is that the member be sus-
pended during thirty-six sessions of the
Chamber. This new rule was adopted by
vote of 277 to 236.
Canadian Expressions
OTTAWA, February 25th.-In the House
of Commons to day Mitchell, member Of
the Opposition, called attention to a Wash
ington dispatch, saying England had abau-
doned her convictions in the Behring Sea
matter on condition that she receive COM
pensation for last seasons seizures. He
thought England dilatory in asking for q
Canadian representative at the last mo-
ment, and that Topper was not well quail
fed to represent Canada.
Sir John Macdonald expressed conf.
dence in Topper.
1t is asserted that the negotiations, thus
far, at Washington are purely prelirni-
nary, and no settlement has been reached.
Deserving of Condemnation.
LONDON, February 25th.-Cobb, a Radi-
cal gave notice in the House of Commons
to-day that if Smiths motion asking the
House to adopt the report of the Parnell Com
mission, with the Lewis amendment con-
corning the Parnellites, carried, he would
move resolution declaring that the House
deplores it. II appears that at the time the
Parnelites were engaged in the alleged
reasonable conspiracies, many of the men,
bers of the Government, especially Sails
bury and Balfour, were in close alliance
and treaty with those members, and there
fore Salisbury and other members of the
Government deserve the seyerest condemna-
ton.

LONDON, February 25th.-Young Abra-
ham Lincoln is low tonight. He is breath

point that may yet save him.
