tenders Public in the Chamber of
Deputies.
Paris June 22,--The story published
by the Cocarde, the Boulangist Organ, to
the effect that one of its representatives
had purloined from the British embassy
in Paris papers showing that certain well
known frenchmen had been engaged in
treasonable schemes against the French
republic, has caused widespread curiosity
as to the names of the men accused and
the exact nature of the charge against
them. All newspapers concur
to-day in demanding that
full explanation of the story be made at
once. Milleroye, Boulangist deputy
and his colleagues, who claim to know
the contents of the documents, had an
interview yesterday with M. Dupuy,
prime minister, and M. Develle, minis
ter of foreign affairs, in connection with
the Cocarde's charge They say that the
ministers refused to take official cogniz-
ance of the documents, and declined to
take charge of them, as they were re

When the chamber of deputies met to-
day M. Dupuy, prime minister, In re-
sponse to question put to him by M.

20 Huot1H frt "a on 10 "a
subject M Milleroye asked several ques-
tions concerning the extradition of Ba-
ron Herr and the documents alleged to
have been stolen from the strong box at
the British embassy.
With regard to the Heig matter M. Du-
puy replied that England had done every
thing possible for her TO do to grant ex-
tradition as requested by France. AS
for the stolen documents, M. Dupuy states
that the public prosecutor could take no
knowledge from stolen documents.
M. Milleroye then stated that he had
the text Of several of the documents in re-
spect of negotiations with Austin
Lee, second secretary of the
British embassy in Paris, all
Of which bore date of April 3, 1893. NJ
Milleroye started in to read one of the
documents. He got as far as i saw to-
day NJ Clemenceau when M. Deville
interrupted him aud begged the president
of the chamber to consider the matter
an international question.
Baron Demarcay suggested that the
chamber resolve itself into secret COM
mittee to hear the documents, but the
suggestion was voted down.
M. Milleroye further accused M, Glenn
enceau of delivering to England private
letters that had passed between M Ribot,
lately prime minister and minister of for
eign affairs, and the French minister to
Egypt, and between M Ribot and the
French ambassador at Constantinople.
A CHARGE OF BRIBERY
He produced list of names of persons
and of papers whom he alleged England
had bribed, and the amount of money
given as bribes. He read amid an uproar
that almost drowned his voice. Temps,

francs; LeJour, $4,000 francs; NJ. Roche
fort, 1000 francs; M. Clemenceau, 5O,-
900 francs.
At this point the uproar and confusion
in the chamber became tremendous.
Members of the extreme left rose from
their seats and demands were made that
M Milleroye leave the chamber M. Mil
leroye, however stood his ground, and
when a semblance of order and quiet was
restored, he shouted: 1.-THE whole thing
is a scandal NJ Bardeau received 30, 600
francs.''
NJ Bardeau sprang from his seat and
exclaimed: 81 expect the chamber to vim
dicate my honor"
''' HooTING FROM THE LEFT.
Clemenceau and all the members of the
party on the extreme left again rose from
their seats and hOoted. After time they
insisted that the rest of the paper be
read. M Milleroye again started to read
but M. Deroulde, whois also Boulangist,
stated that he could not listen to him and
would resign his seat rather than do so.
An order of the day was then
moved to the effect that the cham
ber condemned the documents and
regretted the time that had been foolishly
wasted listening to their presentation.
IHlS was duOpbCu Dy pidCglCdl4y an uhdu-
imous vote, only four members voting
against it, while 4s9 voted in favor of it.
Deroulde retired to the committee room,
where he spent a long time refusing to re-
ceive his most intimate colleagues.
NJ Milleroye left the chamber declaring
that he would resign his seat in order
that he might act Independently
THE NATURE OF THE DOCUMENTS.
Most Of the documents in NJ Milleroyes
possession are. letters purporting TO have
been signed by Hon. r. Lister, secretary
of the British embassy some time ago.
Mr.. Lister was transferred to
Athens, however, about year
before the date of the letters. The
letters are regarded generally as
barefaced and clumsy forgeries. When
M. Blilleroye referred to that part of a
certain letter which mentioned a pro-
jected alliance between the United States
and Russia, the whole chamber shouted,
laughed and ieered, and NJ. DeVelle re-
marked that the whole matter was evil
