to piiiage or murder or commit incendiary
crimes and also providcs for the glorifca-
ton OF crimes to be punished bv we years
imprisonment. and the authorities shall
have power TO make preventive arrests and
seizures.
Goblet opposed immediate discussion of
the bill. claiming he feared il would en-
croach upon the liberty of the press. and
appealed TO the departments not to lose
their heads. Goblet's remarks were fol-
lowed with cheers from the Left and
greeted with protests from the Centris.s.
Pelletan moved TO adjourn the debate
until tomorrow. but amid scene of much
enthusiasm on the part of the supporters
OF the government this motion was re-
jected by vote of 40i to iA3. The an
nouncement of the result was greeted with
loud cheering.
Ramel then moved that the govern
ments bill be sent TO committee immedi-
ately. Casimir-Perisr promptly opposed
this motion, amid loud applause OF the
Centris,s. which was accompanied by pro-
tests from the Left. A scene of great ex-
element followed. but the government
again won a sweeping victory. the motion
being rejected by vote of $50 to 156.
Fiviani said she Socialists wanted to
| discuss laws. and not adopt them without
| debate. Amid considerable interruption
Niviani continued, saying the Socialists
| would not consent TO rush bills through.
| Toussaint, Socialist. created great uprosr
| bv vdeclaring the majority of the deputies
| were panic stricken and were ready to
| adopt any measure which the government
| brought forward. Finally. In spite of the
(, protests of the Socialists. immediate dis
cussion of the bill was ordered.
| Boisserin demanded that Minister Of
| Justice Dubost should give the chamber
| full explanations concerning the proposed
notifications of the press law. Duboss
| was greeted with cheers from the majority
! of the members, and warmly replied that
| the new press law was only destined to
| hinder crime loud cheeringl and associ-
| ations of anarchists. whose leaders. the
/ minister loudly exclaimed, are known to
| the government Icheersl and il was
/ against this class that the government
| aimed the repressive measures. [Cheers.
Boisserin shen proposed an amendment.
| which the government opposed amid loud
| cheering and which was rejected by a vote
/ of 80 TO IS. the result being received with

| The excitement resulting from tho
| throwing Of bomb in the chamber of
/ deputies Saturday has somew hat sub
| sided. and people are now looking 10 the
/ chamber to enact measures TO stamp ont
| the reds. Previous TO this outrage the
/ union of Socialists and Radicals was strong
1 enough in the chamber To overthrow one
/ government and they were confident of
| being able TO do the same with the exist
! ing government, but VaiIIant's dastardiy
1 performance seems to have greatly
| strengthened the hands of the government
| aud put il in position TO make an effective
| fight against anarchy. 1t is believed this
act. which has sent ehilis chasing up and
| down the spine of every monarch of Ea-
rope, win result in joint action by France,
| England, Spain, Italy and Austria for the
extradition and severe punishment OF all
| proved TO have been engaged IN
| anarchistic conspiracies. II is also
| expected that measures will be in
| troduced in the chamber of deputies
| for the punishment Of those who sdvo-
| cate or defend crime in newspapers. and
| for Furnishing with severity the unlawful

| that Marehal. the name which he first

ing deserted his wife in America and come

in separating her from her husband and
made her work from morning till night

The police have searched the apart
