THE REoRGANIZED SPANISH MINISTRY.
When on the overthrow of the CASTELAR,
Government last January. Marshal serrano came into
power he formed a Cabinet consisting almost
entirely OF the old politicians Of the revolution OF 1868
and the shOrt-lived reign OF King Amadeus senior
sagasta took charge more OF the Department OF
Foreign Affairs while Admiral Topete became minister
of Marine and Gen. Zlbala Minister OF War. This Min
istry continued in Office until May II, when
changes were made with the view OF
placing the Government on irmer basis
sacasta was transferred 10 the Department
OF the INTERIOR Gen. Ztbala became President OF the
Council AS we'll as Minister of War, and new men were
appointed to the other departments This Cabinet has

In the Cabinet constituted, six OF the eight
ministers named above were members OF the Ministry
OF the l4th OF May and simply continue in office.

the Council and Gen. Zibaa gives place as Minister OF
War to serrano Bedoya II no other appointments are
made the new Cabinet Will accordingly derive
importance rather from change OF positions

feared and distrusted by all parties with little preen-

He rarely speaks the Cories without raising tenn
pest and yet he is valuable politician that II Is
equally impossible for practical Cabinet to go on with
him or without him. As Minister OF the Interior IN
the time Of the Regency he acted with unscrupu-
