FRENCH VOCIFERATION

PARIS, Jan. 3l.-In the chamber of dep
uties today, in the course of discussion
of the bill to punish newspaper attacks on
the banks, NJ. de Casssgnac said that the
newspaper attacks had not caused the
withdrawal of dozen accounts in Paris;
but that the suspicious which had under
mined public confidence centered upon the
ministers who had squandered the money
OF the Panama canai company. The state
meut evoked tumult. The Republicans
protested, the Royalsts cheered and ap-
plauded and NJ. Floquet shouted above the
confusion that he had been illuminated
and that the day OF justice was approach
ing.
VI de Cassag gnac replied with violent
gestures. but his words were lost in the
uproar.
NJ Ribot declared that no other country
in the world would bear the burden of
such falsehoods, and that there was no
reason why France should invite the perils
which lay in them. Il the deputies would
arm the government adequately with law,
the plotters against the nation ana the
nations credit would be crushed.
The bill was then passed-326 70 l66.

merely the maintenance of order The re-
latious ot the two governments had been
placed on a satisfactory footing, and

In conclusion, Mr.. Gladstone repeated
his appeal to the house not to be moved by
