difference who supported Mr.. Willis
In his fight for the position, so he
was successful. The political af-
fairs in this State are in a disheart-

are the only ones benefiting from the
fight. Republicans have been fight

mon enemy, the Democrats. Here
we have a Republican President

plenty of good Republicans in Della
ware who are fully capable of filling
the position. Numerous other posi-
tons have been filled without party
considerations. The men who voted

are now being rewarded. One half

Brussels, June 8o.-Ths agitation
against the electoral reform bill is
assuming more alarming proportions.
At the conclusion Of . great meeting
In the town hall last evening thou
sands attempted To cross the Grande
Place, In which the town hall stands.
The gendarmes charged with drawn
swords, and the crowd retaliated with
stones. Shots were hred on both sides.
Three persons were wounded. and u
police officer WA severely stabbed
with q shoemaker's knife
The rioters, On being dispersed. as
sembled at another point. A large
crowd gathered In the Rue Royale,
tearing up the paving stones and using
these az missiles. Finally the civic
guard was ordered out to relieve the
police.
Despite these attempts to suppress
the disturbances rioting continued to
late hour, many persons being In
jured. A feature was the general tear
ing up of paving stones to b. hurled
at the police and guards. A tramway
conductor received two bullet wounds.
Ultimately the troops were called
out. About IS arrests were made,
many Of those who were taken into
custody being In possession Of re-
yolvers.
Yesterday the city wore completely
revolutionary aspect. Tram cars were
overturned and used as barricades.
The commander of the civic guard
asked to be supplied with 1890 cart
ridges. Street lamps were smashed,
the rioters pricked the horses of the
gendarmes with needles. and many Of
the animals fell with their riders. Sew
eral inoffensivs onlookers were injured
by the swords Of the police. 1t is ru-
mored that there are some women and
children among these. 1t is also ru-'
mored that the wounded tramway con-
ductor has succumbed to his injuries,
but the report as yet is unconfrmed.
The electoral reform bill, which was
introduced by M. Van den Peereboom,
seeks to perpetuate the clerical domi-
nation of the country. 1t provides for
q proportional representation in dis
tricts electing more than three mem
bers. The Liberals and Socialists re-
alize that it's effect would be to main
tain the Catholic representation in the
smaller constituencies and practically
to exclude the Liberals and Socialists
from the larger districts. A new
Beernaert ministry is predicted as the
outcome of the agitation. In any
event the crisis is one of the most
serious that has occurred in Belgian
history.
The Liberals. being in hopeless
minority in parliament, abandoned
the idea of fighting the bill by parlia-
mentary methods, and started a cam
paign of obstruction.
The scenes In the chamber yesterday
quite beggared description. M. Van
den Peereboom was dubbed murder
err" bandit" and minister of civil
war" by the Socialists, who declared
that they would appeal to the king.
