MADRID. Nov. 3O-A Cabinet crisis is i'm

prevails in political circles. The causes of the
trouble are chiefly financial. SeMor Silvela hav-
Ing for some time been d'ssatis fed with tho

The immediate cause OF Seho. Si!veias
resignation is said to be q difference OF opin-
ion as to the prosecution OF the municipal au-
thoritcs Of Madrid for stealing money appro.
rrated for the Columbus celebration. There
is reason to bclievo that portion OF the em-
be2zled funds reached high quarters in the

Senior Danvilla has succeeded Senior Silvela
in the Ministry OF the Interior. Tho change is
hut an exrcdient for patching IN temporarily
the difficulties OF the Cabinet, which. it il gem
orally believed. is on the verge OF dissolution.
