PARIS, Oct. 29.-The government pro

law TO wipe out the plague OF criminals
sometimes called "apaches.' whose only
resemblance to the American Indian
tribe of that name is that they cat,
"Apachcs" are men who laugh at, and
break all laws, moral and civil. They
arc supported by women. They arc bur-
glars or pickpockcts. who carry weapons
and use them. Apaches arc increasing
in number; they are becoming more dar-
Ing. Heretofore Judges have been too
easy with them frequently turning them
loose or giving lighter sentences than

Cn a simple miSdemcanor.
The ministers of the interior will in
troducc a new bill to deal with the
apaches SO severely that they Will
think twice before plunging daggers into

only served half time when in prison.
This Will consist Of confinement and
hard labor; No exception will be made

not more so. The cat is impossible in
a country like France. thinks NJ. Barthou.
I''What row there would be- Besides,
would ii be possible to find a Frenchman
willing TO undertake the task of fogging
a criminal?" on this point q. writer in
the I.iberte. suggests that Barthou should
advertise for a ''nogeer." and wagcrs
that the ministry of justice would be
! flooded With applications in twenty-four
! hours But our minister OF justice Will
not have the cat at any price, though
he promises that his method OF hard
labor Will cut down the apaches, and
Parisians will bc able 10 walk the boulc
wards and even the side streets without
risk. There is little doubt that the scnti-
mcntalists or "hnmanitarians" Will gain
