PREMIER
BACKED
UP BY DEPUTIES
Given Free Hand in His Efforts
to Suppress the Wine
growers. HEATED DEBATE AT PARIS
Kens of Mutiny Brings Excited Au
dience to Chambers Opposition
Denounces the Government
In Bitter Terms.
r'ARIS, Juno 21. By a majority of
1S4, the Chamber of Deputies this aft
ernoon voted confidence in the govern
ment and Grave the ministers a free
hand to employ the measures they
think best to re-establish order in the
disturbed southern departments. This
result came after a day of excitement
over the mutiny of troops, following
the widespread disorders of the wine
growers.
The grave view the French capltol
takes of the revolutionary attempts and
the tragic outcome was evinced by the
scene In the Chamber of Deputies when
the government was interpreted on
the measures it proposed to take.
Even standing room was not obtain
able. Many women listened to the
debate which at times was superheated.
Premier Clemenceau lost no time in
Imparting to the deputies the news
from Narbonne. adding to the Informa
tion already published the fact that
over a hundred soldiers were wounded
In the fighting yesterday, the rioters,
he said, had disappeared from the
streets. Peasants from the surround
ing villages, terrified at the shooting,
took the first trains for home.
Premier Appeals for Support.
Then, amid Impressive silence, the
premier gave the official version of
the mutiny of the battalion of the 17th
regiment at Agde, and its march to
Bezlers, fully confirming the dispatches
of the Associated Press. The premier
added that he could not listen to any
proposition for the conditional sur
render of the mutineers, as it would
be an almost fatal move for the gov
ernment to capitulate to the soldiery.
He concluded with the demand for
a vote of confidence, so that the min
isters could carry out In the name of
the Chamber, the work of repression.
The opposing Deputies accused the Min
isters of sending agents to stir up the
populace In the South, Baying that the
soldiers acted like Cossacks; that the
troops fired with little provocation and
without notification, and that women and
children had been slaughtered. They in
sisted that the release of M. Fertloul, ex
Mayor of Narbonne, would alone restore
calm. Otherwise, one of the speakers as
serted, "The bloody rioting of today will
be the revolution of tomorrow."
Country Before Party.
Rx-Minister of Commerce Mlllerand's
tlenunclatlon of M. Clemenceau was par
ticularly violent, but fell flat, as he la
strongly suspected of a desire to succeed
to the Premiership.
Some of the Parliament members of
the opposition appeared to place the In
terests of the country above their party
and supported the Government.
After six hours debate the Chamber,
by a vote of 31'3 to 237, decided to support
the Cabinet.
The receipt of a dispatch from Bezlers
later in the day. announcing that the
mutinous battalion had decided to return
to the rest of the regiment, caused de
cided satisfaction in official circles, as it
hoped that the action would hold oft fur
ther open Insubordination.
t-iOLDIEUS JOIX THE REBELS
Battalion Mutinies, Then Reconsid
ers and Gives Up Arms.
PARIS. June 21. A battalion of the
Seventeenth Infantry Regiment, stationed
at Agde, in the department of Herault.
has deserted with Its arms and ammu
nition and Joined the Insurgent winegrow
ers at Bezlers. the headquarters of the
regiment. The mutineers mostly were
recruited among the winegrowers and
number about '00 men. They marched
into Bezlers. which has about 60,000 in
habitants, with drums beating and colors
flying, and are now camped in the prin
cliwl square of that city, with arms
stacked. The deserters tried to enlist the
sympathies of the remainder of the regi
ment, stationed at Beziers, but falling
to do this, they promised to eject them
from their barracks.
Karly this morning the Prefect of Be
zlers notined Premier Clemenceau that
the mutineers had agreed to return to
Agde on condition that they were not
punished. A little later they renewed
their demand to be allowed to reoccupy
their former barracks at bezlers.
M. Clemenceau curtly replied that he
would not parley with deserters or con
sider any proposition but unconditional
surrender, adding that he was determined
to utilize all the government's forces, if
necessary, to suppress the uprising.
Details of the mutiny show that a bat
talion of the Seventeenth Infantry sent
from Bezlers to Agde. on account of the
soldiers'. sympathy with the local wine
growers, mutinied there this morning,
raided the magazine, filled their pouches
with cartridges and with fixed bayonets
and flags flying, marched out of Agde
and entered Beziers.
When notified of the mutiny General
Crolsade, commanding the Sixty-first Bri
gade, met the mutineers at Ullleneuve
and attempted to persuade them to re
turn to duty.
"Soldiers," hs commanded, "kill me or
obey me."
The soldiers replied that they had no
de-lre to kill the Oeneral. but were de
termined to return to Bezlers. A detach
ment of gendarmes tried to bar the road,
but after the mutineers had tired a voUey
In the air they were permitted to pass.
.The mutineers, although without offi
cers, marched Into Beziers In perfect or
der at 6 o'clock this morning, the cheera
of the local crowds mingling with the
rolling of the drums and the strains of
the bugles. After stacking arms the de
serters announced their intention to re
main on the square until allowed to re
occupy their barracks, from whence they
were recently transferred. The people
gave the mutineer a warm welcome and
furnished them with ample provisions and
supplies of straw, upon which the tired
soldiers threw themselves after station
ing their pickets and proclaiming their
determination to defend their lives in the
event of being attacked.
The news of this momentous defection
of troops, together with other mutinous
eruptions at various points in the revolt
ing provinces, reached the government
this morning and caused the gravest con
cern. Premier Clemenceau immediately sum
moned a Cabinet meeting. At the Min
istry of the Interior at noon Inquirers
were informed that the reports from
Narbonne and Montpellier showed that
both places were comparatively quiet.
It was announced that the government's
watchwards are. "The law must reign."
Interior Minister Brland Indignantly de
nied the rumors that he has resigned.
He said he was not such a coward as to
desert his colleagues in the present circumstances.

Most Imposing Ceremonies.
NARBONNE, France, June 21. The fu
neral of ths victims of Thursday's riots
were held today and passed off without
untoward incident. It was attended by
the entire population of the countryside.
All .public organizations were represent

marches, church bells tolled, all the
shops and banks were closed: dwellings
were draped with crepe, and flags floated
at half-mast.
At the cemetery various speakers de
livered funeral orations and then ths
crowd dispersed.
Barly in the day the city retained ths
aspect of a siege. Troops were every

the prefecture. In spite of this latter
precaution, however, the prefect did not

The first three, disguised as cabmen,
frequented thf vicinity of the 'resi
dence of Durnovo and Akymoff and the
Tsarskoe-Selo railroad station for over
a -month, seeking a suitable oppor
tunity to kill the Ministers. The police
were early, aware that they were plot,

lice, assisted by foreign detectives,
watched the station for several weeks
before the Terrorists became alarmed
and disappeared.
Later they returned disguised as
street venders, but were recognized and
arrested. Perikatoff was taken into
custody at the house of General Mln,
where he presented a card bearing the
name of Prince Drutskol Sakallnsky, a
well-known member of a noble family.

was arrested and found to be armed

other of the Terrorists attempted In

CANNOT FORMCLATE ADDRESS
Czar's Opponents at Loss Bow to
Reach People.
ST. PETERSBURG. June 21. Although
nearly a week has elapsed since the dis
solution of the Douma, the parties op
posed to the government still are ponder
ing the terms in which they can most ef
fectively address themselves to the coun
try. Apparently as yet they have not got
their bearings or summed up their
chances for the coming elections.
The Social Democrats, the Social Rev
olutionist and the Group of Toll, who
suffered most severely through the disso
lution, probably will give up the idea of
separate proclamations and favor uniting
in a big joint manifesto.
The draft of the manifesto prepared by
the Social Revolutionists finds favor with
the Social Democrats, and has been ac
cepted by the group of toil. In substance,
the manifesto sets forth that the Douma
from the first championed the rights of
the people against governmental absolut
ism and strove in behalf of the working
masses, through Its agrarian commission,
for compulsory expropriation from the
landlords' estate for the benefit of the
peasants. This, It Is declared, was the
real reason for the dissolution. The new
so-called Douma, the manifesto says, will
be composed of landlords and nobles, who
are enemies of the common people. "Let
the nation," It saym, "defend by force
the honest popular representation em
bodied by the ex-Douma."
In this proclamation it was explained
that the representatives of the Group of
Toll in the ex-Douma at first hesitated
to appeal to force, but finally concurred
with the Constitutional Democrats to par
ticipate in the radical conferences. They
decided also not to issue manifestos and
to refrain from high-pitched language,
but instead to publish a sober account to
the electorate of what the 6econd Douma
tried to accomplish, and wherein It failed.
The preparation of this document has
been entrusted to Professor Paul Nlchol
aievleh Milukoff, leader of the Constitu
tional Democrats, who Is now directing
it to the attention of the solid business
classes, from whom support Is expected.
Vassill Khvost, a Social revolutionary
deputy, was arrested yesterday on his ar

CZAR SHOWS THE IRON HAND
Provincial Governor Given Special
Powers to Stop Disorders.
ST. PETERSBURG, June 21. An im
perial ukase has been issued to the
Governors of the Province of Arch
angle, Novgorod, Inetz, Paskov, Rya

granting them special powers, empow
ering them to suspend newspapers,
disperse meetings, banish undesirable
persons and take other measure for
the maintenance of public security by

resort to the courts and to inflict pun.
ishmenft up to three months imprison
ment and $500 fine.
These provinces include practically
the entire area of Russia where some
form of martial law has not already
been proclaimed. The administrative
powers of the governors correspond
with those given under a state of "re
inforced security." The step was'
taken to head off agrarian disorders,
the possibility of which It. is believed
greatly increased the determination of
the Social Democrats, Social Revolu
tionists and members of the Group of
Toil to issue a Joint manifesto to the
Nation, urging the pepple not to ac
cept the "aristocratic regime con
templated by the new election law.
But to defend the idea of popular
representation before force."
The decision to. issue the joint proc
lamation was taken during the night,
and the text Is now being drafted.
WERE LOST FOR SEVEN TEARS
Mysterious Checks Are Unearthed
In Seattle Comptroller's Office.
SEATTLE, Wash.. June 21. (Spe
cial.) The musty, dust-covered
pigeonholes of the City Comptroller's
office gave up a treasure this morning
In the shape of 12584, some of which
has been lost for nearly seven years.
Experts working on the city books
came upon lost checks paid into the
city aggregating the amount of money
stated above. The experts reported
the matter to City Treasurer George
Russell, and asked for advice. Mr.
Russell locked the checks up In his
valuts at once, and will consult the
proper city officials. He admitted that
the finding of the checks is a complete
mystery. The only man who might
throw light on the subject Is Harry
Carroll, and he is in the East.
The checks do not appear to have
been a part of the looting business
carried on by John Ripllnger, for some
of them are dated- prior to his term
of office.
FAVORS PDUTJGAL ACTION
MINERS VOTE IN FAVOR OF INDUSTRIAL-
UNION,
Section Providing for Amalgamation
With Industrial Workers of the
World Laid on Table.
DENVER, June 21. The convention
of the Western Federation of Miners
this afternoon adopted the first five
sections of the proposed new preamble
of the constitution and laid the sixth
section on the table. This section is
designed to make the Federation the
mining department of the Industrial
Workers of the World. The fifth sec
tion of the preamble is considered to
pledge the Federation to Socialism. It
reads:
"We hold that Industrial union and
the concerted political action of all
wage-workers is the only method of
attaining this end," referring to the
"emancipation" of the working classes.
The new preamble Is still to be adopted
as a whole, and will then go to a
referendum vote before It Is finally
incorporated In the constitution.
Thomas Booher of Butte Union, No. 1,
who yesterday afternoon spoke dis
paragingly of the American Federation,
today apologized for his remarks, say
ing they were made in the heat of de
bate and did not in any way express
his feelings. He asked to h.ve them
expunged fr6m the records, but objec
tion being made this was not allowed,
although the convention voted to Ac
cept his apology. .

EXPRESS COAST OPINIONS
Dr. Wheeler Enlightens New York
ers on Japanese Menace.
NEW YORK, June ZL President Ben
jamin Ide Wheeler, of the University of
California, who is In town, believes that
the conditions on the Pacific Coast, inso
far as the Oriental peoples are concerned
are very grave and present to the resi
dents a question that will not be easily
solved.
In an interview Dr. Wheeler said:
"It is not a question whether the Chi
nese or Japanese shall go to the same
schools as the white children, .neither Is
it a question whether some of the Japa
nese have been assaulted or treated bad
ly, but the question is one much broader
In its scope. It is simply whether the
people of the Pacific Coast shall become
Inoculated with the Oriental Ideas and
plans of procedure, or whether they shall
remain on a truly Occidental basis. Shall
or shall not the Pacific Coast states suf
fer the same fate as Hawaii. Shall the
states of the coast be overrun with Japa
nese and finally feel the effects of their
presence as it Is felt in the places where
they are largely In evidence."

SEATTLE, Wash.! June 21. (Special.)
Jihei Hashlguchi, a Japanese newspaper
man and author, declared today that he
was forbidden to eat In a local restau
rant, the proprietress ordering her wait
resses to refuse to serve a Japanese
guest. Hashlguchi patiently presented
his card to the cashier and awaited de
velopments. Half an hour later a waitress
attended to his wants.
"I forgive the woman." naively ex
plained the Japanese author and news
paper man," for I am sure she did not
know what she was doing. If I thought
it was Intentional I would expose her,
but as It is, I shall forgive her. It re
quired some time after she received my
card for her to decide to accept me as a
patron, but she finally relented."
Strongly Backed in Japan.
TOKIO.. June 21. While there is a
unanimity of opinion here that Ambas
sador Aoki is unfitted for bis post at
Washington and it is certain that at
tempts have been made to remove him,
he has very powerful political support.
Unless strong proof can be furnished
that 'Ambassador Aoki is persona non
grata at Washington, it is not likely
that Viscount Hayashl will take the
initiative in removing him from the
position.
There are rumors, however; to the
effect that the Ambassador is very un
popular, not only -7lth the Japanese, but
among the Americans generally.

Moral of Japanese Watches.
System Magazine.
The Japanese have a well-formed
habit of signing orders for American
merchandise simply to oblige the sales
man, and that it Is a common practice
to refuse to accept the goods on deliv
ery. No Jap will be so impolite as to
say "No" to a stranger who enters his
home. When a Jap smiles you may
know that he Is angry and that you
had better leave him alone; but when
he draws his breath with a- hissing
sound through his teeth you may feel
sure you have convinced him. When
American dollar watches first came
into Japan and China a big demand
was Instantly created. The Japs took
one of the watches to pieces, ran up a
factory and cut the price in two. More
over, they put the Chinese and Japa
nese figures on the face. American
manufacturers did not want to bother
to do this, but when the Jap did It they
had to follow suit- Then the Japs em
bossed the Chinese and Japanese "good
luck" signs on the backs of the
watches, and that left them supreme In
the field. The Japanese understand the
knack of giving their customers what
they Want and they are shrewder In
many ways than their Yankee com
petitors give them credit for being.
