PARIS, Jan. 27.-1hare was a turbu-
Lent scene in the chamber of deputies
today, and the sitting was finally sus-
pended peremptorily by the president.
NJ. Clovis Hugues, one Of the deputies
from the Seine, interpellated the GOV
ernment on the recent arrests ofanarch-
lists. During the course of his interpret
latlOn, NJ. Hughes caused considerable
Indignation on the part of the govern
meDtS supporter by charging the latter
with prosecuting the anarchists as
preteXt for suppresSing the Socialists.
The speaker also insinuated that the
government was acting with a purpose
in illegally SeiZng correspondence.
NJ. Raynail, minister OF the interior,
replied that the government only APP
piled the laws which had been passed
by the chamber of deputies, and iusti-
fed the seizures of correspondence by
quoting extracts from the writings of
Reclus, the fugitive friend of Valiant.
Continuing, vi. RaynaI said that the
government had issued orders to the
effect that the police were to search the
domiciles OF well-knOwn anarchists. or
people known beyond doubt to be in
sypathy with anarchists 1t was diff
cult TO distinguish between anarchists
and socialists. In conclusion, the min
lister or the interior remarked: Lib
erty is in no way menaced by the action
of the government; but liberty must
not be c0nfounded with license"
Then followed a scene which has
rarely if ever been equaled i'll the cham-

fists beneath each others noses. several
breaches of the peace occurred, and one
pugnaciOus deputy went so far as to
challenge a fellow member to decide
their differences by recourse to Ie

the chamber of deputies, became so
excited that he threw his cap in the air
and shouted:
"Five la commune" and number of
commune eXclamations which entities
him to censure and expulsion from the
chamber.
President Dupuy thereupon invited
the excited deputy to withdraw tho ex-
preSsions which he had used Nj.
Ihievrien refused to do so in the most
violent language, and loudly repeated
the Objectionable words several times.
and i'll addition making an offensive
gesture towards the president.
This caused President Dupuy to firm
ly request the deputy to leave the
chamber of deputies. Then followed
another scene of extreme disorder, all
the socialists rising in their seats, ges-
ticulating violently and uttering all
kinds of loud protesting cries and in
suIting remarks.
Tie socialists then formed a circle
around NJ. Thievrien, who hurled def
ance at President Dupuy, positively re-
fuslng to obey the latter's order to leave
the chamber of deputies.
NJ. Dupuy then had nothing left but
to
SUSPEND THE SITTING,
and he so ordered it, and also issued
orders that the chamber Of deputies be
cleared by the usherS. But NJ. THEY

continued his defiant attitude towards
the president of the chamber of deDu-
ties and positively refused TO obey the
ushers, who asked them to Yacate their
seats and leave the chamber.
President Dupuy then Instructed one
Of the officers on duty in the chamber
to call the colonel in command of the
guard stationed in the PaIas Bourbon,
IN which the chamber of deputies Is
situated. Accordingly the colonel of
the guard shortly afterwards entered
the chamber of deputies at the head of
a detachment of soldiers, and ln-
vited NJ. Thievrien to obev the
orders of the president to leave
the chamber. But NJ. Thieyrien
still declined to vacate his seat, which
caused the colonel to remark that if he
persisted in his refusal, he would order
hin to be removed by force. The colo
mel then called upon file of soldiers to
surround NJ. Thieyrien, and was upon
the point of having him removed by
force when the excited deputy arose.
saying: "Yola are the friends, and L
am as nothing against you, but you are
doing dirty work."
The colonel insisted that his orders
must be obeyed, and told the soldiers to
remove
THE DEPUTY BY FORCE.
Ih9 soldiers were upon the point of
carrying out this order, when Mr..
Thievrien rose and slowly moved to-
ward the door, crying: "Vive la COM
mune." The cry was taken up by the
Socialists, and one of them, Deputy
Valiant, representing the twentieth
ACCOMPLISHMENT of Paris, when the sit
ting was resumed, declared that
he aud his friends associated
."yiye la commune and that
they were in hearty sympathy
with NJ. Thievrien. The statement
from Valiant caused a deafening up
roar, during which the Socialists were
called "assasSins," communists" and
other similar names. Threats and oaths
and terrible abuse were heard on all
sides. Finally the president was
obliged to ring his bell violently in or
der to obtain silence, after which the
order OF the day-voting confidence in
the goyernment-Was carried by a vote
Of 408 to 81, amid additional uproar and
excitement.
