Paris, December 2.-The galleries and
benches in the chamber of deputies were
crowded today when the governments
bill amending the church and state sep
aration law of 1905 was called up. All the
members of the cabinet were present.
Sone nervousness prevailed on account
of the attitude of the followers of ex-
Premier Combes, as a result of the in
cdent in the chamber of deputies last
night when NJ. Pelletan, radical socialist.
demanded time to discuss the report of
the committee on the new bill, which drew
forth a sharp reply from Premier Glenn
enceau regarding friends and pretended
friends many persons believing that the
Combes party was secretly ready If the
opportunity offered to preciptate a min
isterial crisis.
The nationalists and royalists groups
having decided in advance not to take
part in the debate, contented themselves
with disposing a formal protest to which
81 signatures were attached, expressing
the opinion that restoration of religious
peace in France could only be brought
about by the re-establishment of the union
of church and state.
The opposition speakers were the first
to address the chamber, Mn. Lassies and
Raiberti arguing that at least the gov
eminent could accord the clericals was
the inclusion in the new law of a dis

the unjust and intolerable conditions
which the circular imposed on the clergy
in the exercise of their duties.

PARIS. Feb. 21.-The possibility Of
war is again being discussed. The feel
ing that war viii come is particularly
strong among the deputies. who say
that France must be prepared for any
eventualities, and add that her chances
are now 100 per cent better than they
were at tEe time of the crisis last
June.
Frances attitude on the Moroccan
question has not changed since yester-
day. except that her determination is
still firm not to make any further con-
cessions. The situation was summed
up today by a diplomat, who said:
we have tried conciliation with
Germany, and it did not succeed. and
now we viii stand firm."
It is reported IN parliamentary cir
cles that this attitude which France
has assumed is due in part TO the in
timation from England that she was
compromising the entente cordiale by
making too many concessions before
Germany.
