French election becomes daily moro
difficult to forecast. Tho political sit
nation In the republic Is much the
Same as 1t IL in England--party lines
are largely drawn, parties arc
badly mixed, and no one can
tell which side will ba [

Is completed. Tho Fronch Radicals,
however, seem to have increased their
confidence since NJ. Clemenceau began I
his stumplrg tour. His pat au-feu {

the parties,i IL is certain that tho French !
