MADRID, June 9.-Short]y after the pass
age of the resolution definitely prOclaiming
the republic. yesterday. the Cortes took a
recess till evening.
At the night Sitting, Senior Pi Margal
proposed the following ministers for ratifi-
cation by the Chamber:
President Of Council and Minister of the
| Interior, Senor Pi Margal: Minister of
State, Cerrera; Minister of Justice, j. Pre-
dical; Minister Of War, Esterause; Minister
! of Colonies, Lorni: Minister OF Finance,
Carvaial; Minister Of Marine, Oriero; Min
lister Of Public Works. Palanca.
After an animated debate, the Cortes
went into secret session, during which the
nominations were approved.
The session of the Cortes last night was
one of the stormiest on record. Owing to
the confusion which prevailed in the cham
Der. closing Of the doors portion of the
time was necessary, during which the re-
porteTs were excluded, and owing to the
late hour OF adjournment the morning pa
pers were unable TO obtain complete or cor
rect reports Of the proceedings, and many
false rumors consequently obtained cur
rency.
The statements, among others, that the
ministry proposed by Pi v Margal was ap-
roved is incorrect. The house finally re.
jected his ministry and called on Figueras
TO resume the conduct of the government
with his old Cabinet.
The following is an accurate resume of
the sitting: The Cortes, after passing a
resolution proclaiming the republic adjourn
ed until the evening for the purpose OF COM
pleting the formation of ministry.
At p. N. the house reassembled. Senior
Figueras opened the debate. He advised
the Republicans to be united. and warned
them that divisions in their ranks would
prove fatal to the cause they held so dear.
The question then came up whether the
Ministers proposed by Senior Pi y Margal
should be valid as a whole or separately.
Al excited discussion followed, which was
accompanied with frequent scenes OF con.
fusion.
The motion was made to 90 into secret
session.
Senor CASTELAR, protested. The Cortes, he
said. owed it to the country that their pro-
CtSUlukS suVulNl Uc puDllCs
Senor Pi y Margal finally announced that
in view of the sad scenes Of disorder which
he could only consider as an evidence OF
distrust, he would withdraw his list Of min.
listers.
A great uproar followed, and it could
only be silenced by SenOr Figuerae, who
| rose TO move that the ministers be chosen
directly by the Cortes.
The motion for secret sitting was then
renewed and adopted, and at midnight the
galleries were cleared and the reporters ex-
| cluded. Around the palace the streets were
| filled with an excited throng, and within
the chamber the greatest agitation pre-.
vailed. It was yumOred at one time that
an armed crowd had the entire palace, and
| threatened to break into the hall. More
! over, a fight between the military and the
| people in the streets was m0mentarily ex.
| pected.
CASTELAR, and Figuras succeeded in re-
| storing calm in the chamber, and exerted
| themselves to good effect in restraining the
populace outside. There being no pros
| pect of an agreement of the deputies as to
| the composition Of al new ministry, Figueras.
! CASTELAR, and Margal were successively
called upon to form one, but they either
declined or failed in the task after repeated
! consultations. when the Cortes finally ap.
| pealed to Senor Figuras to remain in power
