brick bake house, the orderly sergeant's
residence and several wooden buildings
used for quarters for the laborers who

A fire broke out among the buildings
at the fort and reached the magazine
before it could be checked, causing the
explosion. The fire ragged all this fore
noon and the larger magazine in which
was stored a great quantity Of dyna-
mite and other heavy explosives, was
in danger, it and the forts being saved
through the brave work of Captain
Nieumann and detachment of ma
rines. Buildings in Pensacola were
shaken by the force of the explosion.

Undertake the Task of solidifying
Enough Elements to Sustain the Gov
ernment-Executive Shows Anxiety.
PARIS, 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 Loclroy both called OH President
Loubet yesterday and expressed their
anxiety to be relieved of the response
bility of office as soon as possible. 1t is
reported orders have been sent to ST.
Michaels, 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 a 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 a combination
cabinet, including MN. Bourgeois,
Brisson, Poincsre and Waldeck- -Rous-
seau. but nothing will be known until
NJ Bourgeois arrives.
M. Waldeck- Rousseau, discussing his
failure, is reported to have said: 81
