HUNCARlANS IN
PARLlMENT IN
LIVELY FIGHT

Budapest, Hungary, Sept. 1.-THE
opening session of the Hungarian par
lament today was marked by a wild
outburst of factional feeling, which
was prevented from becoming free
fight only through the intervention OF
party leaders.
The uproar began as soon as Count
Tisza, the president OF the lower house,
entered the chamber. He was re-
ceived with cries of derision and
abuse, mingled with kissing. His call
for order only caused the disorder
to break out with renewed violence.
The royal decree opening the ses-
sion was read without any body hear
ig word of it and was followed by
what looked likely to develop into a
free fight.
An opposition member tauntingly
asked a 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 coming to blows when
Count julius Andrassy and other lead
ers interviewed and separated the dep
uties who had threatened each other
The tumult, however, continued.
Only few spectators were in the
chamber, and neither police nor mill
tary appeared, although disorder had
been anticipated.
Stormy scenes also were witnessed
in the Hungarian parliament during
it's closing sittings in June last, which
eliminated in an attempt being made
to assassinate Count Tisza. The
president of the chamber was shot at
three times by an opposition deputy
julius Kovacs, who then fired two bull
lets into his own body, wounding him.
self seriously.
The count escaped unharmed.
Count Tisza was elected speaker on
May 22 last. He is an opponent OF
universal suffrage and on this issue
his election was contested with blt-
terness that resulted in violence IN
the chamber and in bloodshed on the
streets.

pledging it's support to the government
in the conclusion of any reasonable
loan plan. The minister of finance ex-
planned that it was Impossible to OBJ
tain the requisite loan outside of the
six-power group of bankers.
The minister hoped that the foreign
bankers would waive or modify their
demands for foreign supervision of the

loan materialize the government was
confident that remarkable progress
and prosperity throughout the coun-
try would follow
Private cablegrams received here to-
day say that $2.5OO,0OO of the $5O,0OO.-
900 loan negotiated in London August

At the secret meetings of the as

to Mongolia he declared that it was
useless to attempt to settle the ques-
ton by military force. China's best
policy, he said, was to rely upon exist
ing treaties. When the Chino-Russian
question had been cleared, the situa-
ton, he said, would assume domes-
tic aspect which would be much more
simple to handle. With regard to
Tibet, the acting premier considered
it best to permit the Dalai Lama to re-
