Thore was a hush in the chamber as tho former minister began his'address of explanation, and every face was turned toward the speaker with tho most onger interest. 31.

Count Jules DoBernos, an ardent royalist, indnlgod in a violent attack on M. Floquet and denounced big conduct in tho alleged bribing of nowapapera under covcr ol political advertising. The count oxcluim'ed: "Yon not only allowed the peoplo to bo robbed of their tavinjn, but you were an accomplice in tho nefarious crime."' > WILD EXCITEMENT. At this there waa the wildest excitement. Deputies stood and waved their arms and shouted, some in denunciation, others in approval of the language tired by Count DeBernle. When order bail boon restored in some degree M. Millevoye arose and indulged in a violent attack on II. llouvier.. Millevoye was repeatedly applauded by the Boillangista, Uoyahsts and Imperialists, but it was evident that lew Republican# were inclined to join in adding to the excitement . M. Kouvier then arose to mRke an explanation and defense of his conduct Ito said that at the time of tho Boulangist ngitntioa certain people had lent to the government fifty thousand to one hundred thousand francs to supply a MHninn a# ennrnf onfpicn fllttflQ tft bop up tho flgbt against Boulangor, ind prevent him andliis followers from carrying out their schemes against the republic. "I never," added M. llouvier, "had anything to do with the Panama Canal Company, and never attempted to control tho press, and when Baron DeKoinach offered to help the government I refused to accept his assistance." M. Rouvior addod warmly: "X always upheld tho flag of parliamentarism and of tho republic, and I-always will." [Hluea and cheers.] DISSOLUTION DEMANDED. M. Houvier waa still in tha/&slo when ?> Uillnvoyo. stepped into the speaker's tribune. Tho lirat words of the Boulanjiit deputy showed' his purpose to preclpitato a crisis immediately. He poke briefly but violently. Tho present cabinet, ho said, was trusted neitbpr by the people nor thoir representa\lj$s. Both its. mombers and adherents were 'a the ihadow of a foul snspioioii. Men cpoien to serve the highest interests of France were falling off day aftor day under charges of misrepresntlng these interests, thnttmn hud come for an aD peal to tho preference of the electors ( Aoplauao oa tho Right and disorder on the left) On behalf of those who had the honor of France at heart he demanded a dissolution. At this point tho uproar on the floor interrupted Jl. Millevoye, and he stood Uont until the cheers and shouts of proles', subsided. Then he mov ed a vote of "no confidence." k1b0t httplibs. As ho left the tribune there was little demonstration, and M. Rtbot, tho premier, rose to defond the government mid profound silence. Tho purpose of M. Millevoye, he said, whs apparent to all. Ho intended to unload scandal after scandal upon the wvernmont until he wrecked it Grios "no, no" from the Boulanglsto greot this statement and M. Millevoye ihouted: "the facts will suffico to *?ck it when all is known." M. Millevoye, continued M. Rlhot, is attempting to bring to trial notindl uals but the republican institutions ofFrance. His attack was directed, not against the cabinet' nor against those Persons charged with corruption, but against national Institutions, which had built up by tho iahorand self saoriSee ot devoted patriots. Thepjotteri rainst the republic should not delude themselves with tho Idea that a dissolution would accomplish' their ends, for we peoplo know their enemies and the ttailci of their enemies. "Honesty In politica above all, I say, M. Ribot called out as he turned to face "Wright, "but no toleration of men *ho conspire to ruin our republic.

Debate on Ullltioyt'ii interpellation Not To Bo Obtitructod?1'Uo Whole Sonudul To Be Opened Up. Paris, Sea 23.?At a cabinet council held in the Ely loe to-day it was resolved that the government would accord acquiescence to a lull and unrestricted dobate on M. Lucion Mlllevoye's interpellation regarding the alleged use \o? money, advanced by the Panama Canal Company, in tho service of the government. The cabinet is fully aware that the motion has been ottered in a spirit of hostility to tho administration, if not to the republic itself, M. Mlllevoye being known as an ardent supporter of Boulanaor, but President Carnot has given his fiat ogainst whom there is evidence of guilty complicity in the Panama frauds, and tnat tho government must welcome the most scorching investigation. Besides, tho ministry,' it is said, hope that tho inquiry conseSuont upon M. Millovoyo'a interpellaon may prove a. boomerang for the Boulangists by (firing an opportunity to bring out the history of tho Bouiangist plot for the overthrow of the renublic, and of the discreditable methods bv which it was proposed to accomplish that object as well as the straits to which the govornment was driven to delect and defeat the conspirators. It is said that for this reason some of the Boulanglsts regret that tho interpellation was oflered, as there are many who, while joning earnestly in demanding -the punishment of the Panama swindlors and corruptionlsts, are equally strong in their condemnation of tho Buulanger conspiracy. The ministry have evidence, it is reported, that the present attack on the government is partof an organized plan for the overthrow of tho republic, and that each step taken is carefully discussed in advanco by tho plotters again'Bt tho constitution. Tho ministers are also convinced that tho only way to mpet the crisis is to throw the wholo of the Panama scandal open as rapidly as tile iuce8 are aevetopeu, ??u iv wmutain only such reserve as may be necesesiaryfor the proper maaagomont of judicial prosecution. The severe treatment of M.'Charles do Lessees and his fellow prisoners has arousod indignation among the friends and others "who have a fellow feeling for the accused. Among the multitude it has the effect of making the government popular.
