Paris, June 1.
Parliament unanimously voted a motion declaring itself in a moving and memorable meeting last evening, the Belgian agreement with the Government in regarding it juridically and morally impossible for King Leopold to reign.
The motion, which was passed by the 89 Belgian Deputies and 54 Senators present without a dissenting vote, also condemned the "capitulation, in regard to which Leopold took the initiative and for which he must bear responsibility in history." It expressed respect for those fallen for the defence of Belgian independence, and paid homage to the Belgian army, "which suffered an undeserved fate."
