ment Is Confident Pros
perity Will Follow.

PEkIN,G China, September 17.-The
national assembly today passed reso-
luton pledging it's support to the gov

bankers would waive or modify their
demands for foreign supervision of the
salt tax and declared that should the
loan materialize the government was
confident that remarkable progress and
throughout the country
would follow.
Private cablegrams received here to.
day say that $2,50O.000 of the $50.00O,.

FREE FIGHT PREVENTED
BY THE PARTY LEADERS
FactionaI Feeling High in Hun
garian ParIiament-Presi-
dent Kissed and Derided.

BUDAPEST, Hungary. September IL
The opening session Of the Hungarian
parliament today was marked by a wild
outburst of factional feeling, which
was prevented from becoming a free
fight only through the Intervention of
party leaders.
The uproar began as soon as Count
Stephen TisZa, the president Of the lower
house, entered the chamber. He was
received with cries of derision and abuse,
mingled with Kissing and whistling. The
president treated the opposition outburst
with Indifference, but all his efforts to
restore order were unavailing. His calls
for attention only caused the disorder to
break out with renewed violence. Not
word could be heard in the chamber
Or in the press gallery above the Or
ganized din.
Reading of Decree Unheard.
The royal decree opening the session
was read without anybody hearing a
word of it, and it was followed by what
looked likely to develop into free fight.
An opposition member tauntingly asked
deputy of the governmental party
whether he had his revolver with him.
This raised feeling to fever heat, and
the members were on the point of COM
ing to blows when Count Julius Andrassy
and the other leaders intervened and
separated the deputies, who had threat
ened one another. The tumult. however,
continued
Only few spectators we're in the cham
Der and neither police nor military ap-
peared during the pandemonium. al
though disorder had been anticipated.
Stormy Scenes in June.
Stormy scenes also We're witnessed In
the Hungarian parliament during it's clos
ing sittings In June last. which culminat-
ed in an attempt being made to assassi-
nate Count Tisza. The president of the
chamber was shot at three times by an
opposition deputy, Julius Kovacs. who
then fired two bullets into his own body,
wounding himself seriously. The count
escaped unharmed.
Count Tisza was elected speaker May
% last. He is AN opponent Of universal
suffrage and on this issue his election
was contested with a bitterness that re-
suited in violence in the chamber and
in bloodshed on the streets
