A CABINET DISMISSED.

Lieutenant Governor Anglers Fires the
Quebec Cabinet Out of Oaice.
QUEBEc, Dec. 1S.--At a late hour
Lieutenant Governor Anglers sent a
message to the local cabinet disnissing
it from office. Mr.. DeBoucheryille Is
called upon to form new cabinet. II
is generally believed that the house viii
be shortly called and that the general
elections are near at hand. The reasons
given for the breaking up of the cabinet
go to show that Commissioners David
son and Cady gave out Lieutenant Gov
ernor Anger's interior report which did
not bear Judge Jell's signature and in
which he did not concur. The report
condemns the whole Bale Des Chaleurs
railroad transaction as illegal and cor
rupt. Several prominent Liberals were
interviewed and all are of the opinion
that the lieutenant governor was unduly
hasty and that this win prove d great
aid to Liberal candidates in the coming
elections.
