Deputy Leon Borie, Boulangist, created decided sensation in court by stating that a man named Blanchet came and offered him ,000 francs for each deputy that he would induce to vote for the Panama lottery bond bill.

Presiding Judge Desjarditfe decided that he would summon sev: who were members of the chamber of deputies at the time the lottery bond bill was proposed, to confirm or deny the statement of H. Borie. M. Andrieux, who is generally held responsi- ble as the originator of the Panama revelations, testified that the list of Reinach checks which he bad given to the committee of investi- Simms?
