having fallen 60 votes Short Of a suffi

THK CENTRE UNDECIDED.
The centre held a meeting, but did
not decide upon any candidate. After
the announcement of the vote It was
n..'.led about that Waldek-Rossoau
would withdraw his candidacy in Ihvor
of Faure.
At the Instigation of Cavnlgnac bul
letins were distributed In the lobbies
In behalf of himself In the hope ot mak
ing the running clear for Brlsson by
taking the wavering supporter* of
Faure. It was the belief of Vavalgnac
that he could get GO vote* whleh had
i given to Faure because of Brl*-

ceeded in his (s-heme Brlsson would
have carried oft the presidency. Pend
ing the .preparations for the second bal

In exchanging opinions.

THE INAUGURATION.
The Investiture of the now president
with hla official ptlwers took place In
the llfbiury.of the Versaltlvu palace. It
consisted merely In ChaUemel-Laoour’o
reading to him the minutes of '-he as
sembly.
M. Faure arns met at the St. Lazares
station by Gen. 'Morcler, minister of
war, and M. Honntaux, minister of
foreign affairs, and was accompanied
by them to the B!ys»e. The palace was
brilliantly lighted and ushers tn gala
Hvery Blood at the doors. Casimir-
Perler welcomed and congratulated hla
successor. Premier Dupuy then pre
sented the resignation of the cabinet.
M. Faure returned to the ministry of
marine for the night. The crowd out
side the ministry cheered with consid
erable fervor when M. Far.ro was per
suaded by friends to show hlmeif .on
the balcony. He wa received for the
first time today wlCI genuine enthu
siasm. Everybody shouted: "Hurrah
for Faure," and every bow or smile
from the -president avas the signal for
a new demonstration. When the presi
dent re-entered the salon he said to
his aero-diary: “I-havo passed the most
precious -moments of my political ca
reer tin this building.
Tomorrow the president will take the
officers ot ills stuff.
M. Faure Is 4nfl and of Imposing
mllltar yfipure. Although a millionaire
ilbllp owned, he has simple tastes.

Eirly this evening the United Press
correspondent saw a copy of a letter
sent -by the Duke of Orleans to Senator
Buffet. It was mailed at Dover last
evening. It avas virtually u manifesto,
declaring that at best the republic in
France can be Only provisional, and
he stands ready 'to step In and help the
people the niomet they call him. The
letter Is generally ridiculed.

spectators, as well as a number of sena

lighted lobbies.
THE ANNOUNCEMENT.
BTho announcement of the second bal
lot was made amid a terrible din. The
BrtMonlte* wore so busy groaning,
cheering and reproaching their n-lgh-
hors that they -paid no attention to
lOhaUemeHLaeour when lie rc*o 4o read
the figures. The president's voice was
quite Inaudible, and hU hand* trembled
violently. It was five minutes after ho
spoke before all memhens of tho as
sembly knew the result. The figures
|generally known were only then sp-
S BroxImate—Faure. 430, and Brlsson.
Bl—but -they sufficed to show that Fc-
[Hx Faure was the new president of
France.
The scene wan absolutely devoid of
aolemnlty or dignity. The Brbwonltes.
who had not ceased howling, were
Joined by other malcontents, and the
windows were fairly ehaken by the In-
deserlhablc tumult. Ttvo radicals
mounted chairs and benches, shouting.
“Down with this president elected by
the right!" The Socialists jumped up

THE NEW PRESIDENT. |
The crowd ou-slde wa* In strange I
contract to the ase<-mb!y. It was neld
ther excited nor enthusiastic. It wait*
ed without eagerness for the coming
of the new president. The carriage
which carried Castmlr-Peri.-r back to
Paris some six months ago stood In the
court yard with the artillery escort
near by. The big palace clock struck v
as the president, who had been recolvfi
Ing official congratulations, passed
■through the Salle de* Toubaux bHween
lines of soldiers with fixed bayonets.
He wa* preceded by usher* and was
followed by cabinet ministers. The
crowd heard the beating of drum* and
saw the president come out bowing
right and left, but It gave no sign of
welcome. There was an occasional hur
rah. but no attempt to raise a hearty
cheer. Two mca even shouted, "Lonal
live Brireon!" -Mounted lancers surg
rounded the carriage after Faure en
tered It and escorted him to the station.
Outside the palace there were a half
dozen cheers for Faure and two or
three for Brlsson when the president
entered the train. The train was a ape-
rial oS. -rod W alow. It reached the
ci 1,1—» station In Paris five min
utes pa* nine. By that time the news
of the election had spread far and wide;

The proceeding* of the nottse In the
morning hour lacked general Interest and
were beeldc* Interrupted to receive a
message from the senate announcing the

rldge Ihe motion was disagreed to and a
conference ordered, with Meisr*. Breck
inridge. Sayers and Cannon iltcpuhhcan)

taken up In committee of the whole. Mr.

appropriating SI.tan.iW> to nay Ihe first In-
etallment, due March j, isk. of the mmiey
due for the purchase and owning of the
Cherokee strip under the act of IWL
Hr. Holman made the point of order
that the appropriation belonged In th*
sundry civil bill, and he made It for the'
express purpose of gsttlng a ruling of
th* chair, for th* first time In the his
tory of congress upon the question of
Jurtadteilon of these matters.
Chairman O'Neill reld the spproortttlon
wa* different from the appropriations un
der the Jurisdiction ot tho commute* cn
rivers and harbors, to which Sir. Holman
had referred. In that the committee mas
authorised to make appropriation* for
new work only. Tho Indian appropria
tion Mil wss a bill appropriating money
In efiset treaty stipulation* with Indian
tribes The amendment was svldently to
carry out a treaty stipulation anil was
therefore In order. The amendment was
agreed to.
Mr. Holman said he hoped th* com-
imlttee on appropriation* wouil bear In
mind the ruling of the chair when mak
ing appropriation* for work carried c-n
under contract* made pursuant to river
and harbor MU*.
No other change was mad* In the b*lt,
which had not been disposed of when Ihe
