PARIS, Jan. 17.-An investigation
Just ended by the ministry of the in
terror has revealed the fact that in
France there are at least 100000
tramps. Against this host the gov
ernment has opposed a regiment OF
32. 900 rnral guards, whose duty it is
to protect life and property in the
country, and 1t proposes to largely
ncraese the number so as to check
vagrancy.
A request sent to all the depart
| ments of France brought 26 replies,
which show that the municipalities
of those departments provided night
lodgings for 100000 persons last
year. In the $4,000 municipalities of
France, however, are to be found on
ly 5000 night refugees and in many
places tramps cannot be arrested be-
cause there is no place to imprison
them.
During last year $4,000 tramps
were arrested, but abuot 10000 OF
them could not be held because OF
lack of evidence to prove crime.
