The Civil Marriage Bill Goes Through the
Hungarian PARLIAMENT.

PUDA PESTH, June 2l.-The House OF
Msgr ates to-day passed the long discuss
ed civil marriage bill by a majority OF
four.
The Magnates will now proceed to dis
cuss the various clauses Of this measure.
The pqsrage Of the civil marriage bill
by the upper house Of the Hungarian
Parliament rs Of wide impC rtance IN
that country, inaSmuch as II marks the
triumph of the people over peers after a
long and bitter struggle. The MagnateS
had refused 10 pass the bill, and its pro-
gress seemed permanently blocked when
Dr. Wekerle, the Premier suggested TO
the Emperor the creating of sufficient
peers 10 give him a N a1Ority In the up
per house. The Emperor refused 10 DO
this, and Dr. Wekerle resigned. After the
vain efforts of cthers to form a minis
Try. he was induced 10 return 10 Office
The Catholic Church bitterly opposed
the bill. Special prayers were offered to-
day In all Catholic churches I'm Hungary
fer the defeat Of the BILL Both sides are
actively prepared FOR the division. The
Clerical party exacted written pledges
from many Of It's adherents. The doubt
ful ones were threatened with excommu-
nicatiOn and even social injury. Nearly
all the Bishops and Magnates arrived,
some coming back even from England
and Switzerland The Government hoped
for a majority Of six.
The fight on the bill dates from De-
cemher ID last, when two bills for the
reform of the marriage laws were nitro
duced The one under dispute provided
for compulsory civil mari iage. when
would alone be recognized by law. Those
who perform the religious ceremony be-
fore proof has been given Of civil mar
riage are subject 20 a fine OF 1000 crowns
for the first offence. and to fine and i'm
pris0nment IN the event OF its repetition.

After the vote Jaures and seVerai other
