the result Of her consultations with states

formed Senor Sagasta that she desired to
retain the present chamber; and she then
invited him to reconstruct the cabinet.
Senor Sagasta replied that 1t would be

the same request to Senior Montero Rios,
president of the Senate, who declined for
the same reason.
Finally Senior Silvela the Conservative
leader accepted the task, and Ii is ex-
pected that he will submit Conservative
ministry to her majesty tomorrow for ap-
proval.
The newspapers predict that popular de-
monstrations will greet conservative min
istry. Senor Silvela has offered the finance
pOrtofolio to Marquis Villaverde; the min
istry of marine to Admiral Lazoga, the
ministry of justice to Senior Duran, and
the ministry of public works, agriculture
and commerce to Senor Cardenas.

New York, March 3.-Rudyard Kipliug
continues to improve rapidly. His condi-
ton is satisfactory in every way, and
but one bulletin was issued to-day, at 2:15
O'Clock p. M, which was as follows:
Mr. Kipling has continued to improve
so that to-day his temperature and pulse
are but little above normal"
There is only one shadow to Mrs. Kip
ling's complete joy at her husbands re-
eovery, and that is the Illness of her two
little daughters, the elder of the two,
Josephine, who is being cared for at the
home of a friend of Mrs Kipling, is very
seriously i'll with pneumonia, the crisis,
it was announced tonight, not having as
yet been reached.
The second child, Elsie, who is isolated
at the Hotel Grenoble, also has pneumonia,
which developed In the past day or two,
but she is not so seriously i'll as her sis
ter. Both children are doing very well,
considering the nature of the disease.
As yet Mr.. Kipling knows nothing of
their illness He attributes their absence
from his room to his own illness, and the
fear the physicians have expressed that
their presence would tend to disturb him.
Tonight DR.. Durham, who is sin in
constant attendance, said:
Mr. Kiplng continues 10 improve. He
is out of danger. We cannot say when he
win be able to get out, and we only know
that we, his physicians, will take no
chances. If all goes well he ought to be
able to take outside air for brief periods
in about two or three weeks"

QUAY LOSES THREE VOTES.
Republican Members Go over to
other Candidates.


Harrisburg Pa, March S-The long pre-
dcted break from Senator Quay came on
to-day's joint ballot.
Three members. Messrs. Hersh Macley
and Yates, Republicans. deserted his
ranks and voted for other Republican cam
d'dates.
Hersh and Yates are Philadelphia friends
OF Senator David Martin who went into
the Republican caucus early in January
and voted against Senator Quay. but who
have since abided by the decision Of that
meeting and voted for Senator Quay.
Mackey Is from Lackawanna county
Until the voting for senator began he was
counted an antI-Quay man, but he sur
prised everybody by voting for the senior
senator.
Representative Mcclellan Hersh of Phil
adelphia, started the break by jumping
from Senator Quay TO Col. George Il. HUFF,
of Greensburg The announcement of the
vote was greeted with applause from the
Democrats and anti-Quay Republicans.
When the name of Representative Mackey
of Lackawanna was reached he called out
Judge Charles +. Rice" The House
broke into tumultuous applause when he
voted.
Representative Leslie Yates Of Phila-
delphia, was the next to change, he going
from Quay to Peter A. y. Widener. the
Philadelphia traction magnate. Neither
Mr. Hersh nor Mr. Mackey gave any rea-
son for their change. Mr.. Yates said after
the ballot:
THE events of the past 4S hours are suf-
hcient explanation as 10 why changed

sCHLEY AHEAD OF SAMPSON.
But Both Are stiII below the Grade
Intended for Them.

Intended Tor Them.
Washington March 4.-The Senate de-
cided to take up the naval nominations
sent in to-day under the provision of per-
sonnel bill and they were confirmed with
out opposition.
These nominations number nearly 800,
and are based on the standing of officers
in the old register. No account was taken
of the effect of action or non-action on
the part of the Senate on many of the
naval nominations now pending before
that body.
Thus in the list of rear admirals sub
mitted eighteen in number, Schley stands
two numbers in advance of Sampson.
This is precisely his relative position on
the existing register, though were the Sem
ate to confirm the nominations of the two
officers to be rear admirals as they were
specially submitted by the President
Sampson would stand twp numbers ahead
of Schley.
Stin, both officers would suffer mater
tally were the Senate to disregard the Pres
ident's accommodation for their advance
ment on account of services rendered at
Santiago, for in~tead of standing almost
at the head of the list of rear admira7s,
they will number ten and twelve, respec-
lively, in that grade, making It mproba-
bic that either should ever be able to OBJ
tain the grade Of fun admiral under any of
the ordinary conditions that govern pro-
motions.

military assembly, held another three houss
discussion to-day regarding the proposal of
the United States government to grant
100000 to pay off the Cuban troops No
conclusion was reached and the debate
was again adjourned to be resumed on
Monday.
There is a faction in the assembly which
takes seriously the proposition OF the mys-
terious American syndicate, supposed to
be represented here by Mr.. Ferros which
offers $l2000,000 on hard conditions, pre-
cisely what has not been disclosed
AS the assembly has no power to create
a lien on the customs, 1t can do nothing
more than recommend something to Gov.
Gen. Brooke or to Washington. Gen. Co
mez is taking no part In the deiberation
and regards the $l2000000 as delusive.
Meanwhile the so-called Cuban army re-
mains under arms and subsisting upon

Case To-day.

Paris, March S-The criminal section of
the Court of Cessation, rendering judg-
ment, finds that Col. Picquart and M. Le-
Blois, lawyer, should be tried by a civ
il court for the alleged forgery with which
they are charged, and for using the for
gerry and diyulging matter contained In
secret documents in the Dreyfus case.
Relative to Picquart the court finds that
the alleged illegality in communicating to
NJ. LeBlois, war office documents, was not
connected with the above charge, and
therefore the courtmartial retains it's 5u-
risdietion.
The united sections of the Court of Cas-

fus case tomorrow in conformity with

AS a result Of the Judgment, the mill

ton.
