URGED FRANCE TO STRIKE.
Clerical Leader Would seize the Opportu-

Paris, Nov. 27.-In the Chamber of Dep

policy of the government was resumed.
The minister of foreign affairs, NJ. Del
casse, protested against the attacks of the
opposition, which, he said, did not recOil

iii external difficulties. The statement
called forth Leftist cheers and Nationalist
protests.
Denys Cochin, leader of the Clericals,
expressed surprise at the Importance at

les, which, he said, were only froth. He
added that he was no partisan of the pol

in South Africa gave the opportunity 10
seek certain settlements. Although he
disapproved of fst-shaking, he equally
disapprOved of the policy of crossed arms
Nationalist cheers greeted this statement
Denys Cochin concluded with urging a
more active policy in China.
NJ. Delcasse then moved the re-estab-
lishment Of the credit for an embassy at
the Vatican, as a matter of national in

adding that as long as the gOVer1menC
interested itself in the relations OF the
French clergy with the curia, an embassy
at the Vatican was absolutely necessary.
Replying. Denys Cochin said that while
the Clericals would vote for the credit il
must not be construed as a vote of conf
dence in the government. The credit was
adopted by 349 10 2d2 votes, and the House

PHILIPPINE NAVAL STATION.
Admiral Dewey Urges the Selection Of SUI
big Paw rs the Best Location.

Admiral Dewey called at the Navy De-
partment yesterday in response to a re-
quest from Secretary Long 10 discuss the
question OF establishing a naval station
al Cavite or other point near Manila. Such
a station is now in operation at Cavite.
but it is foreseen that the requirements
OF the navy may be much greater than
those which are temporarily attended to
at Cavite.
The Admiral brought with him portions
OF his report TO be incorporated In the
full report of the Philippine Commission
This discusses the establishment of a per-
manent naval station for the Philippines
and recommends Subig Bay, about sixty
miles from Manila. as preferable to Ca
vite. as there is a fine harbor. ample depth
of water. and many natural advantages
for making this a strong naval establish
ment. While Admiral Dewey's view will
doubtless prevail when a permanent sta
ton is established. this will be for Con-
gress to deal with, and the present purpose
is to utilize the Cavte station for the cur
rent work on TIE warships.
Rear Admira! ellis name has been men,
toned as ommandant of the Cavite sta
tion. He was at the department yesterday
and conferred with Secretary Long on the
subject. but the impression prevails that
one of the younger officers will be chosen.

SAD MISSION OF THE TEXAS.

special 10 The Post.
Norfolk, Va. Nov. 27.-Capt Charles D.
Sigsbee, commanding the Texas. sister
ship to the ill-fated battle-ship Maine, of
which he was in command when she was
destroyed in Havana harbor, eighteen
months ago, will proceed Immediately
from Hampton Roads TO Havana on a
mission at once sad and inspiring. When
the Texas returns TO these waters she will
bear back to their native soil the bodies
of the men who met death when their ship
was blown up.
The bodies of the 260 men whose deaths
obtained freedom for Cuba will be disin-
TERED from the CristObal Colon Cemetery
at Havana, where they now rest, and
brought to Arlington, there to rest with
the heroes who have gone before. Every
thing aboard the Texas has been made
ready for the reception of the bodies and
for their proper transportation. Upon the
ships return the coffins will be trans
ferred at Old Point Comfort TO the Chesa-
peake and Ohio Railway Company and
taken to Washington.
The battle-ship's immediate orders are
for Brunswick, Ga. where her presence
is desired at a celebration. From Bruins
wick she will go to Havana. The report
that the Texas will ultimately be added
TO Admiral Schley's South Atlantic
Squadron is Inaccurate so far as the
Texas commander is informed.

Doe stated to the Associated Press re-
porter that he felt confident no emergency
would arise requiring the assistance of
the Federal authorities, but intimated
that he had assurances that Federal aid
could be had if it became necessary.
There was no change in the situation
here to-day on either side. The expected
move of the Goebel leaders to take the

story from Louisville that Jefferson and
