ROUVIER MINISTRY
MAKES THREAT TO
RESIGN EN- .MASSE
Minister of War Announces
His Resignation.
OUTCOME OF VIOLENT DEBATE
IN CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES

Paris, Nov. 1O.-The Rouvier min
istry met with its first check today
when NJ. Berteaux, minister of war,
peremptorily withdrew from the min
isteral branches during an angry de-
bate in the chamber of deputies and
thereafter announced his resignation.
For time the entire cabinet hung IN
the balance, and Premier Rouvier
announced the readi &ess of himself
and his colleagues to give up power
unless they we've supported by a sub
stantial majority. After a debate Of
exceptional violence motion favora-
ble to the ministry prevailed by vote
of $40 to LAT. However. the minis
terial majority is made up Of factions
of divergent groups and the future of
the cabinet remains in doubt.
After the session the premier went
to the Elysee palace and requested
President Loubet to call a special cabi-
net council tomorrow, at which Nj.
Berteaux's successor will be decided
upon and at which it Is possible that
further rearrangement of the cabinet
will be considered
NJ. Ettne, now minister of the inter-
ior. is mentioned as the most probable
s2ccessor to NJ Berteaux.
Generals Langois and Brun are also
mentioned for the war portfolio. but
the socialists threaten not to support
the ministry if a general be chosen TO
head the war office.
NJ Berteaux in an interview this
evening said his resignation was not
intended to embarrass the ministry,
but that he was unable TO tolerate the
humiiating position of the ministry IN
being dependent upon the opposition
groups in the chamber. The crisis
does not involve any important issue,
but results from the breaking up OF
the groups on which the ministry has
heretofore relied

NAVAL OFFICERS REPRIMANDED
Had Interfered Improperly With Ma
Iine Sergeant

Washington. Nov. l0.---In accord
ance with the recommendation of the
court of inquiry which investigated
the case. Acting Secretary Newbury Of
the navy department has administered
reprimand to Lieutenant Farmer
Morrison of the navy, and Lieutenant
r. p. williams ofthe Marine corps, for
having Improperly interfered" with
the marine sergeant OF the guard at
the New York navy yard. The text
of the reprimand has not been made
public. The sergeant OF the guard was
completely exonerated by the court
from any misconduct in connection
with the affair. 1t seems that the Off
GERS. who were not on duty at the
time. had undertaken to interfere with
the sergeant of the guard on the alleg-
ed ground that he was not in fit condi-
tlon for duty. The court found tina.
the officers had exceeded their author
ity in the premises and sustained the
sergeant The statement that the two
officers had been ordered to trial be
fore a court-martial Is erroneous. Tho
case has been officially closed with
the promulgatlon Of the reprimand.

CARNEGIE SAYS EUROPE

After expressing himself in favor OF

ance scandals have made a profound
impression throughout Europe. The
root of the trouble is that there are SC
many men in America who are su
good -natured that they lend their
names to financial Institutions and as
sumo duties which they have not time
to perform. Their respective names
are used as decoys by the real mana
gers of the concerns over which they
have no control. What we need 10

tired from business, and who will con-

ment is the same as in the one quash-
ed; That while senator of the
United States. he accepted money
from the Rialto Grain & Securities
company of st. Louis for services
rendered before the postoffice depart.
ment i'm behalf of that company,
which was being investigated by in
spectors. The only change is in the
legal wording of the indictment which
is different to avoid the errors found
in the former by United States Judge
Vandeventer.
The new indictment charged that
Joseph r.. Burton, while a senator
from Kansas. received from the Rialto
Grain and Securities company the
sum Of $500 In cash. It is charged that
this amount was paid in ST. Louis In
the present Indictment Burton is not
charged with receiving any money in
Washington, but he is charged with
having agreed. IN this city, to accept
$500 a month.
Senator Burton was in court today
when the charge to the jury was de-
| llvered by Judge Vandevanter. He
was accompanied by his attorney, f.
W. lehman His case. however. was
mot mentioned in the Instructions ia
the jury.
The federal grand jury was swor
in today by Judge Vandeventer and

ployes Of the postoffce department.

Cochran. purchasing agent of the
postoffice department of Washington;
Inspector in Charge r. VI. Fulton, of
st. Louis and Inspector In Charge Jo-
seph p. Johnson of New Orleans,
were the principal witnesses.
This Indictment is the third found
against Senator Burton. and should q
demurrer to this be sustained 1t VIII
be impossible To re-lndct him for his
alleged offense In connection with the
Rialto company. owing to the statute
of limitations.
