DISCOVERY.

the claims of Cook that he discov-
cred the north pole, secured from the
wife of Knud Rasmussen, the Danish
explorer, a copy of letter which the
latter had written from the Arctic

This letter vindicates the truth of
Cooks claim that he discovered the
pole, so far as human evidence and
cireumstantial evidence can prove
anything. Rasmussen talked with
Esklmos who had knowledge OF
Cooks journey. He is convinced
from what they said that Cook
reached the pole.

The Old Cabinet.
The cabinet which resigned was
formed January %, 1907, with the
following ministers:
Premier-Senor Maura.
Foreign Affairs-Senor Allendesal-
azar.
Marquis de Figueroa.
Finance-Senor Besada.
senior de Laclerva.
War-General Lnares.
Marlne-Senor Fernando.
Agriculture. Commerce and Public
Works-Senor Sanchez Guerrero.
EducatioB-Senor Rodriguez San
Pedro.
Preceding the formation OF this
cabinet there had been no less than
FIVE liberal ministries In rs months.
The religious issue had been the rock
on which these ministries were
wrecked. and the accession to power
OF Senior Maura. who had before held
the premiership. was regarded as a
sweeping victory for the clericale,
and one likely to arouse revolu-
tionarv spirit. This proved to be the
case. the opposition finally uniting
against the governments conduct
and furtherance of the war in Mo-
rocco
The stern measures taken to put
down the recent anti-war demonstra-
lions In Spain tended to iniame the
opposition and the execution OF Fer
rer folloNed by popular demonstra-
tions Of disapproyal brought matters
TO a crisis
Government Assailed.
When parliament reopened the
liberals. republicans and socialists
bitterly assailed the government, but
the cabinet showed a disposition to
fight for It's life.
There wac a violent scene In the
chamber OF deputies when the oppo-
sition. headed by Senior Moret y Prem

It's attack upon the government.

however. declared that the ministry
would not resign under threats. II
was then believed that while Senior
Morct was determined to unhorse
Premier Maura the liberals as dlstln-
gulshed from the republicans and So
cialists did not desire TO assume
power. as under the circumstances
thoy would then become responsible
for the expenditures involved in the
war In Morocco.
The fall OF the cabinet was regard
ed as inevitable after the bitter
speech OF Minister OF the Interior
Iacierva In the chamber of deputies
during which he classed the liberals
with the republicans and socialists
who were arrayed against the throne.
King Alfonso summoned Premier
Maura, Senior Dato. former minister
of the Interior. and other leaders In
parliament.
The impression continues that the
liberals will refuse to assume power,
preferring leave the conservatives
to extricate themselves from the
present situation as best they may.
