Dufaure TO Form "A New Cabinet-Refus-
al to Vote the Budget.
PARIS, Dec 3.-Thetremps says that Do
fauro is entrusted within the formation of cabi-
net and went this afternoon to Versailles to
consult with his friends. At meeting today
of the Left Centre it appeared in view of the
prolongation of the crisis unanimously to be
the opinion at present to refuse to vote the
budget.
The MoD!teur announces that M Dufaure has
consented to act as intermediary between the
Left and President MacMshou. He has
already specified to the President the conces-
sons the chamber could reasonably demand,
and the President has distinctly agreed to
them. Dufaure will now ascertain from the
majority the precise condition on which it
would accept reconciliation and will impress
upon it the necessity of moderation. 1t is
probable Dufaures consultation with the Presi-
dent led to the report of the Temps. today that
he had been summoned to form q cabinet.
