FRANCES NEW CABINET.
BOURGEOIsB DECLINES TO BE.
COME A MEMBER.

1t Had Been Expected That Only Three
Members of the Old Cabinet Would
Be Left Out of the New one-Bene-
ficiaries OF the Panama Canal Doodle
Breathing Much Easier.
PARIS, Dec. lit is believed that there
will be only three new ministers in the cab
inet-Deputies Charles Dupuy, Jean Sar-
rien and Reache. 10 is understood that
NJ. Ribot will retain the ministry Of foreign
affairs and NJ. de Freycinet the ministry OF
war. Notwithstanding the report that NJ.
Brisson was in favor of appointing
Gen. Ferron, minister of war, and exclud-
ing M. de Freycinet from the cabinet. There
is an evident sense Of relief among the re-
puted benetici aries of the Panama canal
frauds, and general satisfaction over the re-
tirement of NJ. Ricard, as an impression
prevails that the new ministry will not fol-
low up the prosecution vigorously. The de-
PENDANTS are also in hopes that the proceed
ings of the chamber Of deputies will result
in the resignation of Procureur General
Quesnay de Beaurepaire, who has been
more responsible than any other person for
bringing the climax Of the criminal prose-
cution.
The evidence of the large amount paid out
TO newspapers has caused a strong feeling
against the press and there is a loud de-
mand among the Panama victims that the
publishers be made TO dlsgorge. The circu-
lation of the implicated newspapers was
also considerably affected to-day by the
definite evidence Of the corruption.
BoURGEoIsE DECLINEs.
PARIS, Dec. /, p. Mt was made
known this afternoon that the first attempt
OF M. Brisson to form a cabinet, has failed.
M. Bourgeoise, who was minister Of public
instruction in M. Loubet's cabinet has re-
fused, 1t is stated, TO accept portfolio, aud
as his corporation was considered vital TO
the success of the ministry, as projected by
M. Brisson, bis refusal involves the col
lapse OF NJ Brisson's plans, so far as they
were formed. NJ. Brisson depended upon
M. BourReoise to be his leading coadjutor
and che rejection of his offer by NJ. Bour-
geoise has caused M. Brisson much disap-
pointment. There Is much speculation as
to the next move Of President Carnot and

years ago by congress for $40 900 because

eight years ago with Philadelphia

boggy hollow which for twenty years had
been used as dump 1t might have stood
under ordinary use, but the government,
besides using it for congressional committee
rooms and offices for departmental bureau
or two, stored several thousand tons of
books and documents in it, which have grad
ually worked marked damage in it. A
gentleman went over it to-day and reports
that the rear floors In each story have
sprung an inch and half, breaking the

causing large seams in the walls and cell

ATLANTA, Ga, Dec. 1.-The illness Of l.
e. Dalton, one of the three medical
students stricken last Sunday with malady
that could not be diagnosed by physicians.
and which resulted in the death OF two, has
been pronounced by his physicians TO be
typho-malarial fever, and with his con-
valescenoe the scare among the members Of
the Eclectic college has abated. The
cause of the death Of Hollis
aud Lewis remains shrouded In
mystery. The theory that they were
poisoned while dissecting bodies has been
refuted. Investigation at the college this
morning brought out that two OF the stu
dents who were attacked never did any
work of that kind during their short stay al
this college. They were Dalton and Lewis.
Hollis, the remaining one of the three, alone
did dissectiug and he did so together with
another student who was not in the least
affected by it afterward.
