Italy’s Depretis Cabinet Falls as Senate Amends Grist Bill
The Chamber of Deputies approved Senate amendments to the Grist Bill by a wide margin. It repeals the tax on Indian corn sent to the mill while delaying tax cuts on higher quality corn and reverses last year’s move to abolish that tax from 1883. Cairoli is asked to form a new cabinet amid party breakdowns and likely dissolution. Foreign policy shifts are described as for the better as Greece and Egypt policy tensions ease.
