Dr. Soybert madn n po t-mortam examination -
tion of the body of John Barker , who died
Monday moruiiKT , to llml out thu nature of
the Injuries which caused his death. Ho
was assisted by Dr. Thomas , who attended
the man In his Illness , and the united
opinion of the two physicians was that ho
died from a secondary shock as the raiult of
Inllarnntlon which had been caused by the
shock no received in falllne. It was the in
tention at first to hold an inquest in the hope
of finding out something more as to the cause
of his fall , but all efforts us to where ho
passed the last twelve hours of his life were
unavailing , so that it was not thought that
any good would bo done by an inquest.
It is the opinion of many that if the
mystery could bo cleared up , something sen
sational might be broucht to light. The men
at thu farm state that when ho loft Saturday
night for the city ho had over $40. When ho
wns picked up ho had only a few cents tucked
away in ono pocket.
An examination of a couple of trunks con
taining Barker's effects was made yesterday ,
and in one of them was found a policy for

claimed to be his wife. Several letters were
also found bearing the signature , "Ettio. "

Special fo TIIR BRK.I Wo had today in the
Chamber of Deputies a tesslon wqrthy of
tha llncst days of lioulangcrism. Wo have
ueon spectatpra of a new scone In the French
parliament ,
A member of the ministry cuffed a deputy
I do not know how the affair wilt end , but
this is how It began : About a fortnight ago
M. Hochofort published it 1'Intranslgcant , a
series of articles entitled : "The Ooldon
Book of Constans " The article made cer
tain accusation against Mr. Constant , min
ister of the interior , and couplet ! his nnmo
with the Viol affaire a young girl in K l ,
nnd chiircetl positively tnat ho wa > the pro
prietor of n house of bad repute in ToiilaUc.
M. Constmti ! did not reply which , it must bo
snhl , had n bad effort even upon his own fol
lowers.
Words UmenltMl by Uloui.
At the session todny MM. la Scnncno nnd
Laurs , , lloulnnglst detircd to qucitlcn th
government upon what measures were to betaken
taken against the journal which m.ido the no-
cusation. The object wns to put M. Coiistans
on the defensive.
M. do Froycinot , minister of war , replied
that the government had no desire to adver
tise the articles from the lloor of the houso.
M. Laur mounted the tribune nnd said that
not to roplv was to trample on the rights of
the minority , but that the nation would bo
the Judge of these despicable men.
The moment these words wore uttered M.
Constuns Jumped to his foot. M. do Froy-
cluot notice. 1 htm but did not divlno hts
Intention. M. Coiistans ijuickly threw off
Ills overcoat. M. Etienne , colonial secretary ,
sei/oil him by the urm , but the angry minis
ter , freeing himself from the gr.isp , leaped
toward the tribune and dealt M. Laur n
couple of sounding whucks on the ear.
The whole chamber rose In excitement.
President Floiiuot rang his bell for ordor.
Other llncontitrrs I'ollouuil.
According to the rules the session ended
when violence was done within the precincts
of Parliament , but everywhere the members
angrily disnutod with each other. M. Doi-
pech , a republican , nnd M. Costolin , a Bou-
langlst , had hot words and came to blows.
The dcputios struggled out into the lobbies ,
nnd there more boxing matches took place.
It was one of the most scandalous scenes
over witnessed and lasted nearly ono hour.
According to the rules , when one member
strikes another , the agcrossor is liable to ex
pulsion , Out M. Constans is not a deputy , but
n senator , aud therefore cannot bo expelled
from the Chamber. Parliamentary experts
are at their wits' end in his caso.
Apologi/cd to Hut Chamber.
At half-pastil the session was reopened
and all was quiet. M. Constans took the
speaker's stand and said thut ho was very
much grieved. For scvontcer years ho had
had the honor of representing the people in
the Chamber or the Senate , and he hud never
done anything to necessitate his being called
to order. But on this occasion ho had
yielded to a just feeling of Indignation. Ho
h.m been uiuiulo to master his emotions
and therefore ho begged to tender his
apologies to his colleagues. His speech was
loudly applauded by the greater part of the
houso.
The previous question was then put and
carried by 434 to 44 votes.
AVluit Will the inil : Hi- ?
This terminated the parliamentary pro
ceedlugs , but what MI Constans and Presi
dent Carnet will do is now the ques
tion. If M. Laur should challenge M.
ConstatiB the latter will light the deputy ,
notwithstanding the law forbids a min
ister to light a duel. But if M.
Laur brings M. Constans before the courts
for the assault ho will bo oblleed to resign.
Also , this may bo the end of the affair. Yet
M. Constans is put in a very dellcato and
difllcult situation , and bis influence Is
diminished uecaubo of the shameful scene of
today. If ho was not guilty ho ouuht to have
prosecuted M. Hochefort In the courts. It Is
much more dignified for a man who has the
honor of being a mlnlsterof Franco to endure
insults than to strike thoinsultor.
Dispatches from Homo say that the pope is
suffering from Inlluen/a. It is added that In
consequcnco there Is considerable anxiety
manifested at the Vatican.

when the thermometer reached 41 ° below.
The lowest point reached last night , accord
ing to the ofllcial register of the weather

of a win in spoil.
At Mendoza , Manitoba , the minimum last

making a difference of 52 = In temnoratuio In
a distance of considerably less than 150

During the night the cold wave was roa-
tral over this state , but it rapidly passed
away to the east , and tonight will witness n
marked reduction in tomperatuto , followed
probably by n few days of mild weather.
