clared that ;the good fepute of parliament
was involyed and: asked ,for explanatidns
as to the partiality-whlch had been -shown
towards those inYolved in the scandala,
claiming fthat the authorities ftadj'been

charged the niluLstcr of justice. .with cul
pable ' leniency, and demanded ;that he

' M. Trarieux replied, denying that he had
long . had in hi ; -possession documents

which required the arrest of M. Edmond

When he was able to make himself
heard the minister of ju?.tice added that
the majofiiy of those whose names had
been, mentioned h:vd explained their po-.
sit ton, arid he concluded with the remark:
41 ch.amb3r knows .the truth, and if
parliament considers its dignity and honor
compromised the gavernment will join the
chamber in voting for repressiye measures,
and in the. face of these explanations asks
the chamber for a vote of confidence."
: " The order of the day, pure and simple,
was then submitted to the chamber and
rejected by a vote of 406 to 105. . ' .
M. Hriberts then moved that the cham
ber agree to prohibit members of parlia
ment from joining in financial syndicates.
The motion whs accepted l5y the premier,
M. Ribot, and was adopted unanimously,
i Later M. Rouanet submitted amotion ;

ing the government to prosecute all . those
who have been found to be implicated in
them, and submit to the chamber ' the re
port of the expert who Inquired Into , the :
finances of the company.
M. Ribot thereupon said it was useless
to submit the expert's report, and, as to
the prosecutions, he added, the -work of
justice had been accomplished and could
not be reopened.
M. Rouanet' s motion asking for an ex
planation as to the partiality which had
been shown towards those involved in the
scandals, claiming tht$ the authorities
had been afraid to prosecute them, and de
manding that the minister of justice pub

in his possession, was than adopted by a
vote of 275 to 19(5. " "
