CRISIS IS SERIOUS,

NET VIEWED WITH ALARM.

President Loubet quests Bourgeois to
Enough Elements to Sustain the Gov
tfnment-Executive Shows Anxiety.
PAF1s, June 2l.-It is now said Presi.
dent Loubet will ask M. Bourgeois, the
former premier and minister of foreign
affairs, to form new cabinet.
The prolongation of the cabinet crisis
Is becoming most serious. NM. Dupuy
and Locl1roy both called on President
Loubet yesterday and expressed their
anxiety to be relieved Of the response
bllity of Office as soon as possible. 1t is
reported orders have been sent to St.
Mlchaels, Azore islands, directing the
commander Of the French cruiser Sfax,
which is bringing Captain Dreyfus to
France, to remain there short time so
as not to arrive in home waters until
the new ministry is installed.
Should Bourgeois accept the task of
forming ministry it is thought his
chances OF success would be fairly good.
His prestige has been much increased by
the part he played in the deliberations
of the peace conference at The Hague.
The latest gossip favors combination
cabinet, including NM Bourgeois,
Brisson, Poincare and Waldeck-Rous-
seau, but nothing will be known until
M. Bourgeois arrives.
M. Waldeck- Rousseau, discussing his
failure, is reported to have said: 81

straightforwardness from my former
adversaries, but found only treason

put together, and until the last few
years was thought to be incurable.
For great many years doctors pro-
nounced it local disease, and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by constant
ly failing to cure with local treatment
pronounced it incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease, and therefore requires consti-
