Yesterday.
(By the Associated Prcss.)

BUDAPEST, Hungary, July 29.-Deputy
zolman Papp caused a sensation in the
lower House of the Diet today by spread
ing out on the table 10000 kroner in cash,
which he declared, had been rendered him
as a bribe to desert his fellow Obstruc-
tionists and leave Pest. Herr Papp,
who isa member of the Kossuth party,
added that it was former Deputy Dienes
who attempted to bribe him.
Deputy Lovazy said that the editor of
the Magyar Orszag had been asked how
much money would be required to buy
off that newspapers support of the Oh
structionists.
A Parliamentary committee was APP
pointed to investigate the matter.
There were stormy scenes in the Diet
this afternoon when the premier, Count
Hedervary, rose to commence the debate
On the indemnity bill. The 'Obstructionists
stood up and the chamber resounded with
deafening shouts, the banging of desk lids
and insults hurled at the premier from
the opposition benches. The sitting was
suspended, but the scenes were repeated
on its resumption and ultimately, being
unable to obtain hearing, the premier
handed the clerk of the House a written
motion, moving the reading of the bill.
When the Obstructionists became aware
of this action couple of members of
the Kossuth party stormed the presidcn-
tial tribune, snatched the paper from the
clerks hands, and tore it to pieces. The
tribune was soon filled with shouting
deputies and amidst the tumult the ses
sion was again suspended.
1t is said that two duels have been ar
ranged between deputies as an outcome of
the scenes in the Diet today.
