POLITICIANS FIGHT
SCENE IN FRENCH CHAMBER. RESORT TO FISTICUFFS. (By Telegraph—Press Assn. —Copyright.) PARIS, July 9. The feeling between the Left and Right parties continues to run high. There was an extraordinary spectacle in the Chamber of Deputies when it was debating a Socialist measure for granting an amnesty on a large scale, a member of the Left physically attacking General Saint Just, upon which the others of the extreme Left rose en bloc and rushed towards the Right. The sitting was suspended amidst a scrimmage of fisticuffs.
