A FRENCH LOAN
Madagascar Made The Basis Of New
Iudebtedf1ess

PARIS, March 23.-The chamber of
deputies today adopted the motion for
the conversion of the Madagascar loan
of 1886 and then discussed the issue of
80 900, 900 francs at per. cent. redeema
BILE In sixty years. Mr.. Doumer moved
that the loan be limited to the 5000, 900
francs necessary for the redemption of
the existing loan and pointed out that
the financial resources of the island
could not be relied upon as Madagascar
was not pacified.
NJ. Debon, the minister of the colonies,
protested against this assersion and M
Doumer continuing approved of the BAN
ishment of the queen of Madagascar to
the island of Reunion, but urged that
this step proved that Madagascar was In
state of rebellion.
Finally M. Doumer demanded that the
bill be returned to the committee.
M. Demyre de Villers, the famous dep
uty from Cochin, China. who had a
great deal to do with bringing about the
annexation Of Madagascar, where he
formerly held the position or French
resident general, suggested loan OF 20, :
100000 francs now and 100000 francs
later.
M. Debon accepted the amendment
and M. Doumer's motion was rejected,
299 to 22e.
Replying to various criticisms, M. De-
bon said 1t was impossible yet to give
Madagascar ideal liberty. The bill was
adopted

A RESPITE GRANTED
The Borrego Gang Given Ten Days
More to Live

WASHINGTON, March 23.-President
Mckinley today granted respite of ten
days to the four men who were to hava
been hanged today for the murder Of
Frank Chavez, a New Mexico sheriff.
The men were sentenced to be hanged
February 23d, last, but President Cleve-
land respited them for one month in or
der to examine the case, subsequently
deciding that the men were properly
convicted. He refused to interfere fur
ther in the case and said the ser.cnce
must be carried out today.
President Mckinley has been under
great pressure to reverse the decision OF
his predecessor, and within the past
few days he has had a number of telst
grams and letters from persons who
urged the execution of the death SEN
tence. In this state of the matter the
president decided that no harm could re-
suit from a stay of ten days in order
to AFFORD himself an opportunity to look
into the papers in detail, hence the order
was made and promptly telegraphed to
the proper ofilcials at Santa Fe.
