Downfall of Chauvelin and Royal Court Turmoil in Grosbois Palace
Report details the dismissal and confinement of M. Chauvelin at Grosbois, amid charges of treachery and greed. Letters from Cardinal Fleury to Cardinal Biffi temper the disgrace, while astronomer Caffini notes a comet as public sentiment turns against the minister. Financial markets list South Sea stocks, annuities, and various bonds with mixed movements as news unfolds.
