The Chamber of Depu ties today continued debate on the reli gious agitation. During a speech today M. Engerande, Nationalist, denounced the government's policy, and M. Baudey, d'Asson, Conservative, created a scene, and had to be restrained by tho guards from attacking M. Berteaux, Radical So cialist. M. Engerande declared Germany profited "by the present anti-clerical policy of France, and Hosed his remarks with warning the Ministers that their course was likely to unloose the fury of the peo ple. The debate, which lasted until 10:45, con cluded by the House adopting, by a vote of 313 to 237, a resolution expressing confi dence in the government's policy. Pre mier Combes replied to tho attacks of the government's opponents, amid tumultu ous demonstrations of approval from the Ministerial supporters, and manifestations of disapproval and many angry Interrup tions by the opposition. Premier Combes in tho course of his speech said that the government's reli gious policy was based on the loyal ob servance of the concordat. The question was whether the concordat created obli gations for only the state. If the con cordat assured the liberty of Catholic worship, it was on the condition that the clergy conform to the rules laid down by the government. No parish church or chapel could exist without the authorization of the government, Tho episcopacy had opened chapels without the consent of the government, and had even allowed them to be used by members of unauthorized congregations. This was sufficient, said the Premier, to justify his recent circu lars. The code dictated severe penalties for such offenses, but It was questionable whetherMt was wise frequently to apply them. The bishops had Indulged In vio lent demonstrations against the laws of the republic. In the presence of this re bellion, public opinion was becoming alarmed. If this spectacle was prolonged, the country would throw on the concordat the responsibility for It and come to the opinion that the concordat had served its time, and seek a solution In the separation of church and state. They would be forced to come to this If matters did not change and the war begun 20 years ago continued. "It Is a truth," concluded tho Premier, "which must be realized here and else where, that there exists In the Chamber a republican majority, which will never abandon tho rights of the civil powers and will never consent to yield the sover eignty of the state to the pretensions of the clergy." M. Combes left the tribune amid tho cheers of his supporters and tho hooting of the clerical deputies. A resolution was finally adopted approv ing the declaration of the government and declaring the Chamber relied upon the firmness of the government to repress the encroachments of the clergy, assure the execution of the laws, and maintain the liberty of public worship. believe that this threat 'of the Canadian administration has had much to do with Mr. Chamberlain's recent utterances. Sir Wilfred Laurler's personal newspaper, the Canada, makes a positive statement to that effect. Premier Parent, of"Quebec, and William Price, president of the, Que bec Board of Trade, strongly approve the preferential trade principle, and Mr. Price also believes in colonial contributions to the British Army and Navy. Assassinated for Revenge. UFA, European Russia. May 20. Tho assassination of Governor Bogdanovitch in the town park here yesterday was appar ently an act of revenge growing out of tho riot at Slautusk In March last, when 2S persons were killed and 50 others wounded by Gendarmes and troops. De tails of the Governor's assassination show that he was walking along among the crowds in the park yesterday when he was approached in a shady lane near the church by two men, one of whom bowed low and handed Bogdanovitch a package. While the Governor was examining It the men drew revolvers and riddled Bogdano vitch with bullets, no less than nine being lodged in his breast and spine. The Gov ernor died on the spot. The church watch man ran to the scene on hearing the firing, but the assassins escaped and had threatened to shoot all who barred their way. Bogdanovitch had been Governor of the province for six years, and was gen erally popular. Anstrlan Consul a Pessimist. VIENNA, May 20. The Austro-Hunga-'rian Consul.
