Turkish Cabinet RESIGNS.

Constantinople.-Th whole Turkish
cabinet resigned, following the resig-
nation of Hilmi Pasha, the grand viz
Ter, who withdrew from the ministry
earlier in the day. The grand vizier's
resignation, it is understood, was due
to intrigues against him in the cham
Der and threats by the committee of
Union and Progress to engineer a par
liamentary vote of want of confidence
in the government. The reports hint
at a military appointment, probably
General Schefket Pasha, as Hilmi
PaShaS successor.

CASE IN
TWO DAYS

Not single new case of scarlet
fever was reported to the board
of health yesterday and only one
new one was made known today.
More guarantees are being lifted,
but the order on breaking quaran-
tines was shown to be just as strict
today as it has been at any time,
when Andrew Papas, Greek Ia
borer, was arrested for leaving his
home before the quarantine was
lifted.
Many of the teams outside of the
crematory department that have
been hired for the special cleaning,
will likely be dismissed within the
next few days. The crematory de-
partment today was but 10 orders
behind in its work, and it is said
that it will be able to take care of
the cleaning from now on. About 20
guarantees for scarlet fever will
be lifted this week.

the house to make his speech on
the subject. The nurse declared
that he was breaking the rules
himself in thus coming in and
elected him as decisively as a
