trip excursion ticket which would prove
useless for scalping purposes, have

portion of his ticket until after he has

now being received at the post office de-

lief that congress has authorized the is
sue and use of private postal cards, mail
able at one cent rate of postage.
This belief is unfounded. The depart
ment has called the attention of all
postmastcrs to this fact and has no
titled them that no law has been enact

SPANS MINISTRY RESIGNS.
Due In Part to the Passage of the Morgan
Belligerency Resolution.


Bclligercncy Resolution.
MADRID, June 5. - Premier Senior
Canovas Del Castillo has rendered To
the queen regent the resignation of
the cabinet, owing to the difficulty the
ministers experienced in carrying on
the government in view of the parlia-
mentary situation caused by the re-
fusal of the liberals to take purt in the
deliberations of the cortes. The atti-
tude Of the liberals is due to the per
sonal encounter between the duke of
Tetuan, minister for foreign affairs,
and Prof. Comas, a liberal senator, on
May 81, when the duke slapped the
face of the senator after heated de-
bate on the Morgan belligerency reso-
luton adopted by the United States
senate. The queen regent has accepted
the resignation.
