BRUSSELS, Jan. 5, 1s94.-The Patriote
states that NJ. Beernaert who recently ten
dered to the King his resignation as Presi-

compromise of the question of proper

Deputies. The new franchise bill contains
proposal for proportionate represen-
tation, but the party of the Right SO
persistently opposed it that M. Beer
naert decided to retire from office. The
apparent disposition of the Right is to now
make concessions in order to prevent the re-
tirement of NJ. Beernaert, but the latter, ac-
cording to the Pat,iote, refuses to consider
their overtures.j

Democratic Committee, has determined to
call meeting of the full committee for next
Tuesday evening at eight o'clock at the
headquarters on Grove street The meeting
is called especially for the purpose of hear
ing the report of the Provisional Committee

time to say The plan of reorganization as
proposed by the Provisional Committee was
read with much interest by the rank and
file. They see therein an opportunity for the
change they have desired.

plan being carried out, and to point out its
benefits, said that the plan echoed his own
sentiments and ideas. Governor Werts said
