Former President Poincare was among the first sum-----moned to the Llysee Palace, the president wishing his views on the situation created by defeat of Premier Tardieu and his government in the chamber of deputies yesterday. Paul Doumer, president of the senate, according to tradition, was the first sent for. He was followed by Fernard Bouisson, president of the chamber. After then came Senators Etienno and Victor Berard and Deputies Malvy and Paul Bon-cou- r, presidents of the senate's and chamber's commissions of finances and foreign affairs. Camille radical Chautemps, socialist leader, and others of the left wing- opposition whielv last night overthrew Premier Tardieu, also were included in the list of callers. In some quarters, reception of the visitors was regarded as merely a perfunctory measure, expectation being that M. Tardieu would be asked again to form a government, and would accept.
