French Chamber of Deputies | Approves Declaration cf Government. PARIS, Jan. 16.~Much excitement was | caused in the Chamber of Deputies this afterncen by the fainting of M. de Bau- dry d'Asson. While the member was speaking he fell from the tribune uncon- | scious. . He was carried to an adjoining room, where he gradually recovered, and later he returned to the chamber. H The gredter part of the sittlgg to-da) was devoted to the discussion of an in- terpellation on the Government's circular | forbidding the use of the Breton dialect in preaching and catechising in the churches of Brittany. M. Lamy, Repub- | lican-Lfberal Deputy from Brittany, de- nounced the civcular as vexatic 1 tyrannical, -He said that more than 740,00 inhabitanis of Brittany could speak only | Breton. ¢ “To forbid" thie teaching of the chism in Breton is to suppress the Catho- lic religion in Brittany,” he said. “It is also the suppression of the Breton leet, one of the most preclous idioms French which has a place in the literary history of’the country Premier ‘Combes defended the as necessary. cate- dia- measure He sald the priests ought 10 be auxiliaries to the teachers and ald in the propagation of the French lan- guage, and that his cireplar only repro- duced a sfmilar crder decessc M. Waldeck-Re forbade | the use of the Flemish language without bjection being raised to the measure The Government could not allow the priests of Brittany to oppose the propaga- tion of the national language. “It would seem.” continued the Premier ‘agcording to certain Deputies, that the inhabitants of Brittany were Bretans be- fore they were Frenchmen.” This remark raised a storm of protests, | a number of Deputies shouting, “You in. sult us!" When ordér had been yestored Pre Combes concluded by a»fl-rlh‘x th would rigorously enforce the circular suppressing the salaries of priests who | disobeyed it After _some ‘further discussion the Chamber, by 39 to 185, voted an order of the day approving the declarations of the Government. That the Government is already enforc- ing its circular is proved by a telegram received from Brest this evening, an-| nouncing the suppression of the salaries of thirty-one priests who persisted in the use of the Breton dialect. It is said that the Bishop of Quimper, Finisterre, has ad- vised the priests to continue to preach Breton when their congregations only un derstand that language.
