Circulars have been distributed during the day
calling upon the people of Brest TO defend their
liberties gained at the expense of four revolu-
tions." and TO prevent the supreme shame 10
humanity Of the condemnation of an innocent
man"
The police took stringent precautions 10 pre-
vent trouble. Detachments of gendarmes were
located IN the houses situated in the vicinity
OF the hall. and the regular police, which were
also stationed about the place doubtless gave
TO the proprietor Of the hall a hint. because
when the organizers Of the meeting arrived at
the hall at $50 this evening headed by a local
Anarchist leader named Broussouleux the pro-
prietor withdrew permission for the meeting, and
a hot alteration without result ensued. Finally
Rroussouleux and his friends loudly declared
their intention OF creating a demonstration in
the streets. and called upon their supporters to
follow them. The Commissary Of Police, who
was present at the alteration. Immediately or
dered forty gendarmes to Gordon the streets and

loafers in Brest, they overran the whole place
shouting "A bas Tarmee"' "Nive Louoet.
"Vive Dreyfus" and "Vive la Social Revolu-

Such thing had never before been heard OF
in Brest whose population for the moment
almost thrown into a state Of CONSERVATION
but the demonstration speedily became farcicaL
AS soon as the crowd met a few police, headed
by a police commissary with the tricolor scarf
around his waist It dispersed, and by lO:3O the
streets were calm, except for few ragamu1lns
singing the "Marseilaise" and the car
magnole' out of the hearing of the police The
latter only arrested four boys. and these Will
probably be released tonight
BroussOuleuX disappeared at the nrst sign or
trouble with the police. The truth is the Anar-
chists and Socialists are here merely 10 further
their own propaganda through the Dreytus
affair and there is little likelihood Of serious
trouble.

R. FULTON CUTTING DECLARES THAT THE
CITIZENS UNION Is NOT OPPOSED TO
SUCH COOPERATION AS Mr..
QUIGG SUGGESTS.

for supporting independent candidates for local
Offices. He said yesterday:
Some time before the primaries in Septem-
ber will issue carefully prepared statement
Of my views regarding Republican support OF
independent candidates at the election this fall
II I am reelected 10 the Office OF president OF
the Republican County Committee, my re-elec-
tion will be with the understanding that ! am
to be empowered by the Republican organiza-
tion to carry out the plans for union with the
independent organizations in the fall campaign.
1t would mean a direct commission by the Re
publican organization 10 go ahead with the
arrangements for supporting independent can
didstes. l would accept reelection to the
office OF president OF the County Committee on
those terms and would not accept it any
other terms"
II is understood that If Mr Quigg's plans are
adopted the independents will be able 10 name
all the candidates for Republican support at the
Assemblymen in strong Republican districts who
desire reelection. Assemblymen Mazet and
Fallows ought TO he reelected Republicans,
II is declared because OF their connection with
the investigating committee. DR.. Henry in the
With District. is said to be sure Of renomina-
ton by the Republicans OF his district that
plans OF union would have TO include his renomi-
nation by the independents
In other Republican districts the independents
might name Republican candidates. In Demo-
cratic districts independent Democrats could be
nominated for the Assembly with the assurance
Of Republican support AS TO candidates for
Alderman and Judges the Republicans could
ask only for worthy candidates opposed 70 Tam

10 candidates Mr.. Cutting made the following
significant statement:
Following the example Of the Committee Of
Seventy In 1894 In the matter Of nominations.
the Union will place its own candidates in the
field and upon its own platform The Central
City Committee has not deemed II necessary as
yet 10 make any official response to the unofficial

Paris. June 2G-The Constitutional Republic
has had narrow escape. The majority Of

tion Of NJ Brissol who succeeded in stemming
the tide which. after NJ. Mirmans fierce on

away. This deafening shouts Of "Vive Ia Com

cred the gravest revolutionary symptom which
has occurred in the Chamber for many years.
To-day's victory won by the Cabinet assures
strong executive government until the con-
clusion Of the Dreyfus court martial but Mod

real danger will come from the Socialists. who
