PARIS. June 26.-The new Cabinet was
| upheld in the Chamber of Deputies this aft
| ernoon. The chamber was thronged and
| there was great anima ton at the opening of
| the session when it became known that two
| alleged hostile groups. the Socialist Radicals
and the Democratic Lefts had decided TO
| vote in favor of the government and that
| NJ. Paul de Cassagnac had withdrawn his
| Interpolation.
Identical statements were read in the
| Chamber of Deputies by the premier, Nj.
| Waldeck-Rousseau and in the Senate by
| Minister of Justice NJ. Monis They were
| as follows: "The Chamber of Deputies re-
| solved not to support any government but
| one determined to defend energetically re-
| publican institutions and assure public or
| der has clearly defined the task imposed
| upon the new Cabinet. The Ministry has no
| other ambition than to accomplish it, and in
order to bring about the pacifcation of the
country and TO maintain intact our common
| inheritance 1t seemed to us that existing de-
| lusions should be eff4eed and that the work
| we are about TO undertake required the
cooperation of all Republicans. When the
| aim is definite, though varying according TO
| the methods of different schools, accord be-
the presence of the one duty to perform--to
| end the agitations pursued, under disguises
| easy to penetrate, against the regime which
| has been sanctioned and will be upheld by
| universal suffrage and to require from all
| the services loyal assistance and coura-
| geous assumption of responsibility. Such is
| necessarily the first duty of the govern
| ment. It is resolved to have all judicial de-
| cisions respected and if the first wish of the
| country Is to listen to the voice of justice,
| 1t will maintain silence and respect while its
| decisions are prepared.
| I'm the front rank of the important inter-
| ests of the country, bound up with the con-
| servation of the dignity of the nation, we
| place the interests of the army, which the
| republic has constructed, on a stronger and
| wider basis, and which is synonymous with
| the republics security and Is the pride OF
| France. We think, with the army's most
| illustrious and surest guides. that inviolabe
attachment to discipline is the first essential
| guarantee of the army's own greatness. We
intend to defend 1t with the same energy
| against the attacks and solicitations which
| constitute the most undeserved of insults.
| I'VE desire, above all, that appeasement
| may be accomplished. and It will come
| quickly II everyone will give up being a law
| unto himself, and bow to the law of the
| land.
ITO accomplish the work which has de-
| volved upon US. we have need of the CO.
| operation of Parliament and its whole confi-
| dence. We ask the widest mandate. We
| take the fullest responsibility. We ask for
| truce Of the irritating discussions hurtful
| to the interests of the country. and that you
will vote without delay law necessary to
the good working of the public service. If
| our efforts not sterile, disunion among
| Republicans will vanish and the republic
| will soon resume the path of economy and
| social progress
| M. Waldeck- Rousseau accepted the order
| of the day moved by NJ. Jules Perillier, Rad
| ical Socialist, reading as follows: THE
| Chamber. approving the declarations and
acts of the government passes to the order
/ of the day.
| The Chamber adopted NJ. FERTILIZERS mo-
| ton by vote of 263 to 237. An indescriba-
BILE scene of excitement followed in the
| lobbes.
AT the opening of the session the extreme
| Leftists shouted viva la Commune" and
| the Socialists frequently interrupted the
| proceedings. but NJ. Waldeck- Rousseau's
| statement was much applauded by the
| Leftists.
| Ernst Roche. Socialist, interpellated the
| government regarding the policy and COM
| position of the Ministry. He declared it was
/ a government of war and violently attacked
| the minister of war, General the Marquis
de Gallifet. Other speakers followed in
similar vein and the orders of the day were
moved, only two of them approving the
| ministerial statement.
NJ. Waldeck- Rousseau replied 10 the var
ious interpretations explaining the motives
animating the formation of Cabinet of
| somewhat divergent views, one Of the main
| objects being to reunite all republicans. He
added that the ministers had already as
sumed some responsibility. but he thought
| the backing of the chamber was necessary
for further steps and asked what Ministry
| could for moment tolerate acts seeming to
| create the belief that the army desired to
constitute itself the judge of it's policy He
| further expressed the hope that it would
| not be necessary to take more severe meas
| ures and said he thought 1t easy to demon
| strate whence came the attacks upon the
| courts.
| Explaining the inclusion of General the
| Marquis de Gallifet in the Cabinet as min
| lister of war; he said it was because no other
| general had so spontaneously supported the
| constitution and ii was thought the neces-
sary punishment of certain military men
| could be somewhat relaxed IL emanating
from such trusted authority as De Gallifet
In conclusion the Premier said: Our task
is heavy. Whatever course the chamber
may pursue. have done all my duty"
The speech OF NJ. Waldeck-Rousseau was
| much interrupted. The noise at times was
deafening and several members were called
| TO order.
The debate In the Chamber was extremely
