The resignation of the Government followed its defeat in the Chamber! of Deputies on a motion in favour of the formal instruction of the fifteen Deputies of the returned regions in Upper Hungary.

The defeat, the first suffered by a Hungarian Government in public session in twenty years, was mostly due to personal opposition to the! Premier, who reiterated, during a stormy debate, that Hungary did not contemplate direct action to secure Ruthenia;—Reuter.
