C., Sept. 27th.—The Duke of Devonshire received word on Friday of the death in England of his mother Lady Emma Cavendish. The vice regal pasty which arrived here yes- terday will not be able to fill all their engazements on the coast as a conse- quence. : Paris, Sept. 25th.—The Chamber of Deputies, following a debate on inter- pellations concerning the foreign and domestic policies of the Govt., voted con- fidence in the Government ‘*his after- noon by a vote of 508 to 80. Premier Leygues then read a decree adjourning the extraordinary session of Parliament. President Millerand delivered his first mes- sage to Parliament today. He declared that the present foreign and internal policies of the Government approved by the Cham- ber of Deputies and the Senate during the pasi eight months would be contin- ued. M. Millerand said he had accepted the presidency in order to continue these policies with more strength and con- tinuity. The nation is forever attach- ed to a republican administration, M. Millerand asserted. Parliament will choose the most opportune moment for the modification of the present consti- tutional laws. Before starting these modifications however, we must carry out a more important task, thatis, the total execution of the ag:-eement enter- ed into by our adversaries at Versailles. The treaty is a new charge ?on Europe «nd the world. Ex-President Poin- care in an article in Le Temps today strongly supports M. Millerand ir his contention that the President of France should take a more aci.ve ‘part in Gov- ernm2nt affairs. M. Poinca:e declares CHRISTIANSTED., V.II. U. S. A.. that under ;stitutiofd the President has all the poweér-he may wish to exercise. The cities the constitutional laws of 1875 argues that under them the President has the initiative in the making of laws, in the naming of all civil and military - employees, in disposing of the armed forces of the state and in negotiating - and ratifving treaties. : Cork, Sept. 26th.—The fact that Satur- day night passed quietly has greatly allayed the fears that reprisals will be } made for the attack on Genl. Strick- i land. There has been a rush of pro- perty owners to take out policies which Lioyds have revived after the recent suspension. The rates are extremely high. No policies are issued if the ap- . plicant or near relatives are connected - with a political organization. There is "~ hardly a shop in the principal streets of Cork whose front is not boarded up to prevent damage in the event of raids or riots. | London, Sept. 26th. -Mr. Mac Sweeney . gave eviden-e of greater exhaustion this ' morning according to the noon bulletin . of the Irish se” determination leag ie ~ reporting the Mayor’s con¢ tion. z Parig, Sept. 26th.
