Country.

PARIS, Oct. 23.-The Chamber of Depu-
ties today resumed the discussion of the
interpretations Of the subject of the French

the government to intervene and end the
struggle. He explained the claim Of the
miners and asked the Chamber to pass laws
providing for eight hours work per day.
old age pensions, and to adopt other meas
ures in favor of the miners. NJ. Jaures
said, amid the applause of the Chamber,
that the employers and miners furnish an
equal part of the pension funds. He said
the companies decrease wages when the
profits were increasing, and recommended
that the owners be compelled to furnish
Parliament with a statement of expenses.
The delegate said Parliament ought to
bring the companies to better agreement.
He referred to President Roosevelt's end
ing the coal strike in the United States,
and maintained the coal company could not
resist If the chairman gave the moral au-
thority to act.
Premier Combes replied justifying the
dispatch Of troops to the coal regions and
said that except for a few instances Of
violence order had been maintained. He
promised to support the bill dealing with
the hours of work now before the Senate
and submit to Parliament the question OF
the old age pensions and insurance against
accident to workmen. The question Of
wages, he added. must be settled between
the workmen and their employers.
In conclusion the premier said: THE
government will strive to bring about a
favorable solution OF the labor questions
and is willing to intervene in order to
urge a more equitable solution OF the
strike, which is causing great misery. and
is perhaps running the mining industry,
while at the same time rejoicing our for
eign competitors"
The premier's statement was received
with cheers, except from the extreme So
~cialists.
Immediately afterward the order Of the
day was accepted by the government and
