Of an incident in connection with a

ago. The shaking of the earth was
distinctly felt all over the State, but
especially in the State capital. The
Legislature was in session at the time.
and nearly every member thereof ran
out of the State House when that
structure began to evince disposi.
ton To turn itself over. Of course
there was an end to legislative pro-

Paris, BY Cable.-Likc shot from
clear sky, the Rouvier Ministry was
defeated iii the Chamber Of Deputies
and Immediately resigned.
The cabinet crisis comes at dra-
matte moment, when the Franco-Ger-
man contest has reached a decisive
stage, and may exert an important
adverse influence on the Algeciras
conference and OH European affairs
The defeat of tue government came
on comparatively minor debate ovef
the Chr.cl, directors. The government
succeeded i'll holding only 234 votes,
while the various elements in opposi-
tion-Clericals, Socialists and Nation
alists-unitcd and polled 267 votes,
thus placing the Ministry in minor

Premier Rouvicr, with all Of his col
leagues, Immediately proceeded 10 the
Foreign Office, where a joint letter of
resignation was prepared. Later, NJ.
Rouvier presented this letter to Presi-
dent Falieres, who accepted the
resignation. The President announe-
ed his intention of consulting the
Presidents of the Senate and Chamber
of Deputies relative to the formation
of a new cabinet.
BLOODY RIOT FORMED TOPIC. I
The debate i'll the Chamber Of De
.puties was upo;i the bloody riot dur
ing the taking ofaan inventory os a
church in the-villsge of Boeschepe;,
resulting in the death of a manifest
ant.
VARIOUS orators severely criticised
the governments course, asserting
that it threatened TO precipita!c re-
ligious warfare.
Premier Rouvier responded:
"The government has the duty to
apply the Law. 1t will apply it with
out weakness. but also with the pru-
dence. tact and wisdom consistent
with public tranquility. I ask the
adoption of a resolution approving
these declarations Of the govern
ment. !"
The resolution was tlereupon put
to vote and defeated. The result
was due to combination of opposi-
ton influences. The vote was more
expressive Of personal antagonism to
the Ministry than of opposition to
church inventors.

A chaplain had been called upon to
officiate for the regular clergyman in

big chamber, when the members were
startled to hear the following sentence
drop from the lips Of the chaplain pro

It was several seconds before the
members fully grasped the meaning of
the clergyman's prayer, and when it
did it was unanimously in favor of
having another substitute when the

government ownership of the rail
roads would be forced upon the
country if Congress did not meet the
