Tanslo" of public feeling In the champagne district Is again so near the breaking point that Premier Monls has issued an order forbidding assembling of people, parading or other demonstration. Troop, are on the war to the district to enforce the order. Their appear ance certainly will deepen general dis content, for the time at least. even it It does not provoke outbreaks. Monls announced a week ago bis In tention to deal with discontent in tbt McUon with an Iron band. In spite or this warning, preparation went on for mass meetings and other outlets for public indignation. A big parade arranged In the Department of AuM. It was commonlv understood that this affair would ba the oecasloa for vio lenee. Martial Law Threatened. The troops have splal ord.ia aot to permit the Auba parade. Monls say. that at the first sign ot resistance n will dispatch otber troops to the scene and. If necessary, place the district un der martial rule. ' Latest new. from the district Is that the Premier-, course ha. Inflamed the winegrower, and produced unrest all through the wine section. The best that may ba said of the situation Is that the authorities hope violence may be avert ed The Premier admit, there I. little prospect at this time of ameliorating conditions or placating public aentl B..I.C but be believes that the purpose ot tne government to repress lrdr justifies his strict attitude and will be snpporte by tne people at large. Moving Pictures Expose Rioters. A mcvlng picture show at Rhelm. has proved a more efficient agent than the police In detecting .one of the par ticipant. In the recent wine riots. Ver ba evidence on which the pollca must rely for the conviction of person, ar reted by them often 1. of doubtful value where public .ympathy la over whelmingly one way. No one can dis pute, however, th. vl.ual testimony of the film, which show, rioter, at work, with photograph, a. good a. If the subject, bad sat for them. With the keen scent for good thing, that hi. class cultivates, a cinemato graph operator leveled his lenses on Ltie thick of one of the rtota. Tho.e In the fray were too busy making trouble to pay attention to him. Thus let alone, be caught a most excellent .cene of violence. In which rioter, from Cumierea and Hautvllllers were the leader Th. film had Quick aale and the .how that bought It played to houaea packed with people, who liked In thl. way to freshen their memorlea of the exciting riot days. It occurred to the Board of Magistrate, of Rhelma that a picture of thla kind might be useful In their business. They visited the show and promptly issued war rants for all the resldenta of Cumlere. Mid Hautvllllers they had recognised th. moving picture of the riot. Railroad Strike Probable. The labor situation also appear, again to be approaching a climax. Tonight 1500 meetings of railroad men were held for the purpose of deciding whether a gen eral strike 1 necessary to force the com panies to re-employ the men discharged a. a result of the last strike, hundreds of whom are said to have been reduced to misery- . In addition to thla the government is facing a tacit strike or boycott against the n-w compulsory oil-age pension law which become, effective July 1. Less than 1 per cent of the workmen com pelled to benefit by this law have com piled with the necessary formalities, while from all over Franca come dis patches telling of meetings of protest against the law. the unpopularity of which appear, to ha growing dally. In spite of the united educational effort, of the Socialists and Republicans. Pension Canse Protest. Last night 1000 person, marched through the .treet. of Chalons-eur-Marne. carrying banners inscribed "The dead cannot be pensioned." The pres. 1. divided aa to the outlook. -Conflicts.- says La Socialists, "are go ing to break out in thousands of work shops, factories and field. Protesta tion, by workmen and embarrassment, of employer, will be general and the concussion will reach the deepeat labor strata." WOMEN MARCH IN CAUSE Conttnud From first ry cooks, models, saleswomen, typists, bookkeepers. physicians, engineers, lawyers, dentists.- designers and Just, plain women. Early In the proceedings It waa seen that the women had failed to obey Instructions In regard to dress. It had been planned to have the marchers wear white skirts, white shirtwaists and white hats, but it looked as if even-eighths of the marchers bad ' trid to get as far away from that Idea as possible. Not more than a dosen women wore the prescribed uniform. The different divisions took their places oa side streets and during the wait practiced "reciprocity" buttoning rack other op. sharing facial ammuni tion and exchanging powder puff, and safety pica fr. Colt Glvea the Word. It was 10 minute, after i o'clock when Mrs. Colt told Inspector Schmltt berger that the line was ready to move. The mounted men were thrown out In front, the Highland piper, took a fresh hold on their musical hatracks and very woman took a farewell peep at a pocket mirror. Mrs. Colt waived a kid-gloved band and the procession moved down the avenue. Directly be hind the pipers and the grand marshal t fim V'-i Xnea Millholland and Miss Alberta Hill, bearing a banner of thl. device: -Forward Out of Error. Leave behind the night; Forward through the darkness, Forward Into Light." Eighteenth Century Woman. Then came the first of the floats, a woman In a sedan chair borne on the shoulders of four stalwart men. The programme said she was an Eighteenth Century woman, but truth compel, the statement that she did not look half her advertised age. Thl. was followed by a large delegation of women work ers In the varous trades. Only six "actresses- marched behind the banner announcing the dramatic department. "Interior decorators" was the legend Inscribed on one banner and there was a great deal of conjecture as to whether the marchers were cook, or dentists. With characteristic generosity mem bers of the anti-suffragist organiza tions contributed to the gaiety of the affair with an avalanche of printed reasons telling why women should not be permitted to vote.

DEMOCRATS FIGHT TO LAST State Has Only One Representative In Senate and Failure to Xante Man .May Affect .Many Important Bills. DENVER, Colo, May 6. The Legis lature adjourned sine die at midnight without the deadlock for the election of a United States Senator to succeed Charles J. Hughes. Jr.. having been broken. This means that the state is to have only one representative In the Senate, and because of the small Re publican majority in that body and the Independence of the Insurgents, the failure to elect a Senator may be of far-reaching Importance. The vote of one member might decide the fate of Important measures which are ex pected to come before the Senate be fore another Legislature can convene in this state and nil the vacancy. Hardlv before in the history of the United States has such a determined and uncompromising stand -been taken by the members of the party In control of a State Legislature on' a matter of such, grave importance as that taken by the Democrats In the present in stance. The- deadlock continued for 120 days and at no time was there an indication that It would be broken. Che 66 Democrats In the Assembly split on ex-Governor Alva Adams, of Pueblo, and Mayor Robert W. Speer, of Den ver. The Adams adherents at all times were more willing for a compro mise than the Speer men, but all ef forts to agree upon another man failed. The Speer men made "Speer or no body" their slogan and for the most part did not deviate from It. It was Anally agreed tonight, when It seemed probable that the session would end without a selection being made, between the conference commit tees of the Speer and Adams factions that seven ballots be taken and If no one was elected the Joint Assembly would come to a final end. The mo tion to take seven ballots was made by Senator McCue, of Denver, which was seconded by Senator W. H. Adams, brother of Alva Adams, and was car ried almost unanimously. Adams' strength on the first ballot tonight was thrown to Ammons, the re sult being as follows: Ammons 33, Speer 31, Roof, Repub lican, 34. No choice, 51 being necessary. Senator Carman and Representative DUrfee, the latter chairman of the Joint Democratic conference committee, were Second ballot: O'Donnell 33, Speer 33. Goudy, Republican. 34.
