his inability to solve the problem
presented by the resignation Of Pre-
mier Dupuy.
The news of the Presidents resig-
nation spread like wild6re through
out Paris, and was received every
where with CONSERVATION amounting
almost to paralysis. In the news
paper offices the first report was
considered absurd, but was soon
confirmed. Almost simultaneously
crowds began gathering in front OF
the newspaper offices and in the
public places, iDquiring for further
particulars aud discussing the situa.
ton. The following official commu-
nication, dictated or written by NJ.
Casimir- Perier, was made public be-
fore midnight.
"The President OF the Republic
has taken resolution to resign his
official functions. Yesterdays pro-
ceedings and the vote in the Cham
her If Deputies are in his eyes but
secondary incidents OF the struggle
that has begun against the parlia-
mentary regime and public liberty.
He had hoped that the President OF
the Republic, being unprovided with
the means of action, would remain
outside the lines of party struggles,
and that the political confidence OF
all parties would give him the neces-
sary force and authority. He had
hoped that those who, in spite of
himself, had placed him in position
where he cannot defend himself,
would undertake. the defence of the
first magistrate OF the state. He
has requested the ministers to with
draw their designations Professionally
IN order to assure the regular trans
mission OF his powers to a successor.
Nj. Charles Dupuy, president of the
council, has informed the president OF
the senate and chamber OF deputies of
the decision Of the President of the
Republic, and they are going to con.
woke parliament with urgency"
NJ. Challemel Lacour, president
OF the senate, allowed himself to be
interviewed 10y the United Press cor
respondent late this evening, not
outstanding the great pressure of
business thrust upon HIM by the
presidents resignation. He said
that it had not yet been decided
whether to convoke the national as
sembly to elect a successor to Nj.
Cassimir Perier the 18th or 18th
inst. He will probably announce
the date to morrow on the meeting
OF the senate and chamber Of depu-
ties. NJ. Casimir-Perier's reference
in his public communication to his
inability to defend himself in the
presidency may, according to the
Trustworthy information obtained by
the United Press correspondent, be
explained by the fact that as he was
a ub.secretary OF state in the cabi-
net which concluded the railway
conventions in 1883, he regards the
adverse vote on tue SUBJECT in the
chamber on Monday as a personal
reflection upon him, although he had
no voice in the cabinet when the
conventions were made. Whether
this be the true reason OF his resig-
nation or not it proves to what
length he is prepared to go against
the Socialists, whom he regards as
aiming at a revolution.
When the United Press CORE
spondent left the chamber OF depu-
ties at 1880 o'clock this evening not
the slightest suspicion OF Casimir-
Perier's intention to resign had been
even remotely suggested, 40 that the
announcement, when made, came
like thunder clap from a clear sky
The extremist newspaper men re-
ceived the news with jubilation. The
editors OF La Petite Republique were
wildly elated, but considered it Ger.
tain that NJ. Casimir. Perier would
be reelected il he would again be a
candidate. Otherwise, there is a
consensus OF opinion that Henri Bris
: son is certain to be- elected to the
presidency OF the republic.
