HOW. LOUBET TOOK THE NEWS.
PARIS. June It The Interview be.
tween M. Du Puy and his colleagues and
President Lou bet was brief but cordlaL
The president expressed bis thanks for
the support he had received from the re
tiring ministers, adding the be would
always remember their service, grate
fully. M. Du Puy was agreeably sur.
prhted at Loubet's cordiality.
There ari already many surmises as
to the composition of the new cabinet,
but it is pointed out that as the Du Puy
mlniirtery did not fall on a question In
volving the political complexion of the
ministry, It Is difficult to see on what
ba.sls a new cabinet will be selected.
Successive votes In the chamber of
deputies today clearly demonstrated the
existence of a majority. Including mem.
bers of all parties, who were determined
to rid themselves of the premiership of
M. Du Puy. The interpellation of M.
Valllant was simply a cleverly selected
pretext to conceal the real cause of the
approaching crisis. j
Socialists and radical, alike are dls
sal If fled with what they have considered
the contradictory attitude of the Du Puy
cabinet In ihe Dreyfus atffalr. Many
deputies agree that the Dreyfus affair to
largvly responsible for the fall of the
cabinet.
Certainly there Is no denying the fact
that the question of the final settle,
ment of the Dreyfus rase hangs like a
dead weight on the situation tonight and
will prove a great obstacle In the set.
tlement of the crisis.
