THE FRENCH CHAMBER.
ACTION ON AMNESTY BILI-THE
DREYFUS AFFAIR,
(By Telegraph to virgInian-Pilot)

(By Telegraph to Virginian-P ilot.)
Paris. Dec. 13.-In the Chamber OF
Deputies today the first paragraph Of
the amnesty bill. which deals with
cases arising out of the Dreyfus af-
fair. was adopted by a vote of S29
against 244. An amendment excluding
cases of espionage and treason from
the amnesty was adopted by a vote of
296 against 24S.
The voting was preceded by a lively
debate growing out of sort of indict-
mcnt pronounced by NJ. Ernest Joseph
Breton. Socialist. Deputy for Dieppe
against EsterhaZy, Henry aid DuPaty
de Clam. who. he said, were the real
traitors.
Despite the approval of NJ. Paul Des-
chanel, president of the chamber. NJ.
Breton proceeded to denounce the vari-
Gus ministers of war who had refused
revision-General Come, De Boisdof-
fer. Mercier and Billot-and TO accuse
Gen. Billot and M. Meline, former pre-
mier. with having been cognizant OF
Lieut.. Col. Henry's forgery. Despite
their denials. NJ. Meline. replying, pro-
tested against the charge and said that
under his ministry no new facts came

to light to justify revision. NJ. Bris-
son, former premier. said that when
he was apprized of the facts OF the
Henry forgery he decided that revision
was necessary, and he honored himself
for this decision. (Cheers.)
NJ. Meline denied that General Billot
had protected Esterhazy. or was aware
of Henry's forgery.
NJ. Lucien Mile voye, Republican
Nationalist. opposed any amnesty
which excluded those persons who
were defendants In the proceedings be-
fore the Senate. sitting as the high
court.
n. Waldeck Rousseau, premier. re
torted:
The chamber has already refused
amnesty to those persons. As to the
Dreyfus affair the chamber has mani
tested a desire that il should be for
ever buried. The government now
looks to the future and presents this
measure in order to prevent renewal
OF discord. I ask the chamber to put
an end to fatal divisions in the coun-
try by voting the amnesty"
The votes were then taken.

FEDERATION OF LABOR.
LEGISLATION IN INTEREST OF
LABOR ORGANIZATIONS

LABOR ORGANIZATIONS.
(By Telegraph to Virginian- plot.)
s. Louisville. Ky. Dec. 13.-ln the
American Federation OF Labor con-
vention today two resolutions cham
pioned by the radical element were
voted down by overwhelming MAORI
ties. One was IL bitter pronouncement
against trusts and monopolies in gem
eral and the other n declaration in ia
vor of the cooperative commonwealth
and government ownership and con-
troll OF all means of production of dis
tribution. For both of them much more
moderate substitutes were adopted
after long and acrimonious debate.
The proponents OF the resolutions
claimed Socialism as the only solution
OF the Industrial problems.
FOUGHT BY GOMPERS.
President Gompers and his COL
leagues. who opposed the resolutions.
took the ground that the Federation
should not be committed to any poll
teal party and that the government
ownership proposition Is at time an
impracticable theory with no definite
plan for development into n working
system.
The substitution for the three resolu-
lions favoring the cooperative COM
monwealth was adopted, 4,169 to 6S5,
ana was as fOlloWS:
WILL WELCOME ASSISTANCE.
1--WE cheerfully accept and desire all
the assistance and usefulness which
may or can be given the trade union
movement by all reform forces. The
aspirations. hopes and aims of the
trades union members are very similar
to the expressed wishes of the greater
body of Socialists, namely, that the
burden of toll may be made lighter
and that each worker shall enjoy the
complete benefit of that which he pro-
duces; that men and women shall re-
ceive a greater amount of liberty; that
the years to come may be made bright
CIR than the past or present, are the
ideals of us all. But we take the posi-
ton, nevertheless. that because OF per-
sonal, local, national or other seasons
the workers of our country reach diff
ferent conclusions as to the method
of reaching the desired end. even
though there may be little difference
among us as to the desirability of
reaching that end. We assert as for
chilly as we are capable of asserting
that the trade union movement Is the
true and legitimate channel through
which the toiers should seek not only
present amelioration. but future eman-
cipatlon.
I'VE hold that the trade unions
throughout our country and Canada do
not now nor do we believe they will
in the future declare against the dis
cussion of any question in their meet
ings. either of an economic or of a
political nature: but they are and we
think justly, committed against the
Endorsement or introduction of race
prejudice, religious differences or par
tisan politics. We declare it to be the
inherent duty of our several unions to
publish in their journals. to discuss in
their meetings and the members there
of to study in their homes all questions
of Il public nature which have refer
ence to their industrial or political lib
erty: but we as firmly declare that 1t
is not within the constitutional or any
