Cabinet May BE Kicked Out.


Cabinet May BE Kicked Out
MONTREAL, Oct. e. The present
Premier, Abbott is finding difficulty in
constructing the Cabinet and the gem
eral impression is that he will shortly
dissolve Parliament and go before the
country. There seems to be no hope for
the Conservative party.
On the other hand the Liberal Quebec
Provincial Parliament is also passing
through crisis Investigation into the
Bale des Chaleurs railway scandal has
revealed the fact that at least 500, OOO
was stolen from the Provincial treasury
to swell the pockets of Cabinet minis
ters
The independent press is calling loudly
on the Liberal party to rid itself of Pre-
mier Mercier and other Cabinet boodlers
and go before the country on the tariff
reform ticket. At the finish of the Bale
des Chaleurs investigation nothing is so
certain as that the Lieutenant-G overnor
of the Province of Quebec will dismiss
the Mercier Cabinet. Already voters
lists are preparing, and both parties are
vigorously organizing.
OTTAWA, Ont, Oct. 26-Chapleau's S
private secretary has intimated that his
chief may withdraw from the Cabinet at
any moment, and thus preci pitate a
rupture in the Ministerial party. Chap
