Der Of Deputies After a Tu-
multuous Session.
PREMIER WARNS THE OPPOSITION
NJ. Dupuy Declares the Government
Il Determined to Punish the
Plotters Against the
Republic.
Paris, June after the removal of
n. de Lagentaye from the chamber
yesterday afternoon for violent at
tacks on the president the sitting was
resumed.
NJ. La Logue asked what measures
the government intended to take in the
future and the premier replied that
after yesterdays incident his first step
was to address q respectful greeting to
the nation-elect and to the firm citi-
zen who was and who remains the
guarantee of republican communion"
Continuing the premier said that
Yesterday at Auteuil the advance
guard of the re%actionary party protest
ed against him and called for his resig-
nation, and proceeded to enlarge upon
1.-The coarseness OF such u demonstra-
ton against an invited guest (Cheers).
The elegants have given us al
idea of what France may expect from
their idlencss and Incidence. We knew
a secret meeting had taken place and
that preparations We're made for DEM
constructions. We took measures for the
presidents protection in driving to and
from the race course and nothing oc-
Cured on the way
Here a royalist deputy tainted:
You hid him. NJ. Dupuy retorted:
but your friends hid behind the
women"
Protests from the rightists followed,
and NJ. Lasios, anti-Semite, cried:
"Loubet and Delcasse (the minister of
foreign a%ffairs) hid behind policemen"
This statement was followed by an
uproar lasting several minutes. When
comparative quiet had been restored
Dupuy said:
"We stationed police at the paddock
with an order to intervene immediate
ly in case of u demonstration, and they
did SO, though they met with much
opposition and protests. l assume I'LL
responsibility. All the police did their
duty, and an individual threw himself
on the president, who remained calna.
The proceedings at Auteuil were tho
more disgusting because they oc-
Cured in the presence of foreign rep
resentatives. The persons who have
been arrested will be examined by a
magistrate, who will decide whether
there was a conspiracy. We are salts
which the government has decided to
close.
Yesterdays demonstrations pre-
tended to represent France in the
army, but the public was against them.
We are supporters OF the republic,
and republicans who do not mix with
those who have borrowed the name in
order to the better destroy her. They
have given us a countersign we intend
to uphold. If you give us your conf
dence we shall know how to defend
our institutions from those who at
tack them" (Applause.)
Here NJ. de ~Cassagnac, conservative,
i~nterjected: "The country is sick of
the republic. AS to the affair which
has divided the nation and families it
will yet weigh heavily against you.
The stories CURRENT in regard to the
measures which you propose against
the generals
"a certain amount of courage" ex-
claimed the premier, sis required to
do what we propose"
TIC drag before n high COURT re-
torted NJ. Cassagnac, your former col-
league 1.-THE former minister of wary
You have cause to close the clubs, for
the nation is awakening and is only
waiting the right man." (Applause.)
After further debate NJ. Meline gave
the order OF the day, approving the
governments action. which was car
ried without division.
The chamber by 800 to 236 votes de-
cided to adjourn the appointment of a
commission of inquiry into the con-
duct of General MERCER, the former
minister of war, until after the court
martial at Rennes, which is to try
Dreyfus, as q result of the decisions Of
the court of cessation.
The socialist and radical deputies in
the Hobbies of the chamber eagerly dis
cussed the measures adopted by the
cabinet and criticised them as made
quate. They demand the closing of all
royalist clubs.
The division with reference to Gem
eral Mercier caused great surprise.
The republican deputies Of all shades
of opinion have sent President Loubet
an address assuring him of their re-
spectful esteem and of their devotion
to republican institutions.
The ministers this morning decided
to remove Advocate General Lombart,
and directed Minister of Justice Lee
