the federation of labor as we'll, pro-
tested against the use of dynamite, as
at Barcelona and Paris, as long as the
condition complained of existed, they

Paris, Dec. 1.-THE excitement re-
sulting from the throwing of the bomb
lin the chamber of deputies on Satur-
day is somewhat subsidized and the
people are now looking to the chamber
to enact measures to stamp out the
reds.
Previous to this outrage the union of
socialists and anarchists was strong
enough in the chamber to overthrow
one government, and they were con-
fident of being able to do the same
with the existing government, but Vail
Iant's dastardly performance seems to
have greatly strengthened the hands
of the government and put it in a posi-
ton to make an effective fight against
anarchy.
1t is believed this act, which has sent
chills chasing up and down the spine
of every monarch of Europe, will re-
suit in Joint action by France, England,
Spain, Italy and Austria for the extra
dition and severe punishment OF all
who are proved to have been engaged
in anarchistic conspiracies.
1t is also expected that measures VIII
be introduced in the chamber OF depu-
ties for the punishment OF those VINO

FIXING A DEAD LINE.
Vessels in the HarbOr of Rio Re-
auested to Change Anchorage.

Washington, Dec. 1.-THE navy de-
partment has received the following
from Commander Picking at Rio: 1.-THE
Brazilian government has requested
the cousuls to warn the vessels to
move from their present anchorage
and has drawn a line inside of which
it is dangerous to venture. This pre-
vents the discharge of cargoes at the
wharves. This is interpreted to mean
the anchorage and wharves have come
within the line of fire of the forts and
Mellos ships, and it is not safe TO
come within that line.
The Brazilian revolution has as
sumed new and much more serious
aspect by the declaration of Admiral
De Cana in favor of revolution and
the restoration of the empire. Minister
Mendonca does not seek to belittle the
seriousness of De Canals detection.
IT know De- Cana personally and
most intimately" said the minister
.and 1 realize he gives the rebels a
power and a prestige they have never
before had. Although he is a rear
admiral of the same rank as Mello,
vet De CANA is recognized as the most
popular and most able man in the
navy The entire navy is likely to fol-
low De Cana, for he has controlling
influence over most of the officers OF
u ".
follow him through respect would do so
in fear of him.
Admiral De Cana has two protected
cruisers and two lesser war ships in
side the harbor Admiral Mello has the
ironclads. the Aquidiban and the Re
publica outside the harbor.
Mendonca said DE, >Gama's declara-
ton in favor of restoring the empire
would probably stimulate the exiled
relics of the old empire to contribute
large sums toward the restoration.
THE pretender is related to some. of
the oldest and wealthiest noble houses
in Europe. They will probably come
forward with money to supply food and
ammunition for the naval forces of
De CANA and Mello. There is a colony
of old Brazilian imperialiStS at Paris,
and another in Portugal The Bour-
bons of Spain are also related to the
pretender l have little doubt that
Admiral De Cana had assurances in
advance from wealthy and royal
sources before he declared for the en-
pire. I know him to be an exceed
ingly careful man, so much so that
he would be likely to take the precau-
ton to secure in advance the co-opera-
ton of the imperialists abroad. One
thing is certain, however, and that is,
monarchy will never be restored in
Brazil. The effort for it by De Cana
may bring a civil war and disrupt
Brazil. but it can ever succeed, as re-
publican institutions are too firmly
planted to be shaken"

Bill to Repress Anarchy Passed At
ter a Lively Seance.

Paris, Dec. 11.-At the cabinet coun-
ell held this afternoon, bills were agreed
upon, to be submitted to the cham
Der, providing for the repression of
anarchy.
Casimier Perier presented a few
measures in the chamber. He dwelt
upon the necessity of passing them,
saying they would not encroach upon

plosi> es. The second, regulates the
manufacture and possession of explo-
sives The third, extends the powers
of the police for the repression of an
archistic agitation, and for the pre-
venting of anarchistic outrages. The
fourth, provides for police supervision
of the anarchist societies.
Casimier Perier. who was frequently
interrupted by applause, explained the
bill to modify the press law provides
for making it penal offense to pub
lish indictments TO pillage or murder
or commit incendiary crimes, and also
provides that the Qualification of crimes
be punished by five years imprison-
ment, and the authorities all have
power to make preventive arrests and
seizures.
Goblet opposed immediate discussion
OF the bill. claiming that he feared it
would encroach upon the liberty of the
press and he appealed to the depart
ments not to lose their heads.
Coblet's remarks were followed with
cheers from the left and greeted with
protests from the centrists-
Peiletan moved to adjourn the debate
until tomorrow, but amid scene of
considerable enthusiasm upon the part
of the supporters of. the government,
this motion was rejected by a vote Of
404 to 143.

ment's bill be sent to the committee
Immediately.

Centrists, which was accompanied by
protests of the Leftists.

but the government again won a sweep
victory. the motion being rejected by a
vote of 389 TO 156.
yiviani said the socialists wanted to
discuss tie laws and not adopt them
without debate
ami continued. saying the socialists
would not consent to rush bills
through.
Toussaint, socialist, created an up
roar by declaring the majority of the
deputies were panic stricken, and ware
ready to adopt any measure which the
government brought forward
Finally. in spite of the protests of the
socialists, an immediate discussion of
the bills was ordered.
