"While there are rumors that the fire was the work of incendiaries, it seems to he more naturally the result of accident. There were several lighted stoves in the building, which probably caused an ex plosion by escaping gas.

WILL DISSOLVE SOON Parliamentary Crisis Immi nent. ABOUT ENGLAND ANI FRANCE Their Relations Said to be Strained. Trouble Probable Between Russia and Japan Over Core. London, June 26. Conservative lead rs seem to have opened Pandora's box of troubles in forcing the Rosebery gov ernment to resign. The latter have clearly the best of the situation. Lord Salisbury is compelled to makeacabinet with a hostile majority, and . as events are now tending, will be obliged to go before the country with at least some in dication of policy about the present burning social question. The news of most interest in America is that Joseph Chamberlain 'having pre cipitated the present situation, has been disappointed iji his ambitions. He de manded the chancellorship of the ex chequer, but Lord Salisbury refused it, and gave him the secretaryship of state for the colonies, which be has accepted. This post is lower in point of official status than the home office, the war de partment or the admiralitr. The fact that Lord Dufferin has come from Paris has excited some uneasiness quite apart from home politics. It transpires that the present state of rela tions between this country and France is serious, if , not threatening. It has been suggested that Lord Dufferin has been asked to undertake the lord lieut tenancy of Ireland, but the fact to that he cannot be permitted to leave Paris until the Anglo-French -. relations are much improved. Late last night a report waB circulated that Mr. Chamberlain had withdrawn nis consent to accept the colonial secre taryship and bad 'applied, for the war office. But his appointment to that of fice would be immediately , challenged, as he and his brother are largely inter ested in cartridge manufactories, which have contracts with the government.' According to the latest information dissolution will take place next week. The members of the McCarthy party have nearly all returned to Ireland to make preperations for the struggle. Redmond has stated that he will contest every seat in Ireland, which declaration might'be interpeted that he is receiving other than Irish financial support. Mc Carthyite calculation is that his party will win three seats from Redmond and five from Ulster tories, . while they may themselves loose two; so that they ex pect a net gain of six. This is provided Healy does not 'raise a flag of revolt, which up to the present he has shown signs of doing. London,' June' 26.
