MILITARY ESTIMATES VOTED.
("Times" Cables.) (Received 10 a.m.)
LONDON, November 30.
The "Times" Paris correspondent states that by 385 votes to 195 the Government survived the first trial of strength. The Socialists demanded a postponement of the military estimates for a committee of inquiry. M. Cheron, the Minister of Finance, refused, saying that it would be regarded as an act of defiance. He appealed for a vote of confidence, calling on all good Republicans to rally round the Minister responsible for the country's defence.
