The French chamber of deputies has
annulled the election of Count Buni de

grounds Of corruption and bribery.
Count Boni, who vigorously denied the
accusations against him made a counter
charge OF similar character against his
opponent.
Three thousand persons, mostly Ameri-
cans, attended the Fourth of July reeep-
tiOn at the American embassy in Lon
don on July 4. Ambassador Reid and
Mrs. Reid, assisted by Congressman
Nicholas LOngwOrth and Mrs. Long
worth, received the guests.
Congressman and Mrs Nicholhs Long
worth arrived in Paris on the evening
of July 5, and were given an enthusiastic
reception there.
A meeting OF the congress Of peasants
unions, representing "a provinces, with

and labor parties, and the Finnish Red
guard, was held in HeIsingfOrs on July
3. The congress adopted a resolution
to call a general rising if the parliament
should be dissolved and to make all

The U. S. transport Thomas is report
ed to be ashore on a coral reef near the

sumner Of the country.
4 uniform and more strict method OF
| naturallzing aliens was enacted. The
immunity OF witnesses from prosecution
| who give testimony before government
tribunals was made the subject OF an
enactment which clearly states when such
immunity obtains, and when otherwise.
a Dill removing the internal revenue
tax on denatured alcohol was also pass
/ ed
The type OF the Panama canal was
hXed, thus settling a question which has
perpleXed both the professional and Law
| mind. The president is to build lock
leVel canal and was given a total Of $50,
oOO,OOO for the year for that purpose.
Ii was required that the material for the
canal should be OF American manufac,
ture unless the president shall find the
price excessive, in which case he il given
authority to buy abroad.
The consular service was given com
plete new legal status, which will permit
OF an entire reorganization.
when the appropriations for the SEES
sion are tOtalled it will be found that
their aggregate has reached nearly
1000 600. This ia a greater sum
than has been made available since the
war congress of 1898. OF this amount
S25,OOO,OOO will go into new public
buildings in various sections Of the
country.
The legislation on appropriation bills
has the characteristic throughout of
being restrictive upon the government
department heads in the matter Of max
ing their expenditures and in submitting
their estimates to congress. 1t has been
the desire OF congress to put an end. a.
lar as possible, to deficiency appropri-
atiOns.
The naval increases which have been
going on annually received somewhat of
a setback
The largest battleship afioat was au-
thorized, but congress required that be-
