result of the decision of the court of cessation.
 Prior to the vote being taken M. 1 Denis Cochin, conservative, asked that 1 the letters of the government demand l ing the prosecution of General Mercier | should be communicated to the house. l The premier replied that it saddened him to take the steps deemed necessary and explained that the trial of M. De- roulede was conducted in seemly manner inStancing the fact that M. De- roulede was permitted to pronounce q long diatribe aginst M. Loubet in order that the verdict of the court of cassa- tion showed that some persons had in- cured responsibilities which must be explained.
 First there was the case of Du Paty De Clam and then the communication of the secret documents of the court mar
 tial having been attributed to General
 Mercier, and the government believed 1t
 to be its duty to ask the chamber to say
 if the prosecution should be undertaken.
 Applause from the Leftists.) The vote
 was then taken
 heated discussion afterwards oc- cured over the prosecution of General Mercier, in the midst of which M. Lases suggested the impeachment of the premier and violently criticised those who were "persecuting' General Mer cier, which the deputy declared was a manouvre made to influence the court martial at Rennes. Finally the cham Der voted to adjourn the appointment of the commission of inquiry into the conduct of General Mercler until after the court martial at Rennes.
 The Leftists moved that the verdict of the court of cessation be placarded ev- anywhere In France, and M Jourde, so- cialist, rose and admitted he had been mistaken about the Dreyfus affair and had reparation to make. He added he was surprised M. Cavaignac had not preceded him to the tribune, which caus- ed the latter to say: 'I have already made reparation by discovering and making known the error committed"
 M Brisson said: "The cabinet I pre- sided over was unfortunate enough to cause to be placarded a speech contain ing misstatements. I ask the chamber to vote the placarding of the verdict Of the court of cessation" The premier did not oppose the placarding of the yer dict, which was adopted by vote of 317 to PIP. The house then adjourned.
