Trouble In French Cabinet;
Minister Of War Resigns

Paris, Nov. 13.-The Rouvier minis
try met with its first check when M.
Berteaux, minister Of war, perempt-
orily withdrew from the ministerial
branch during an angry debate In the
chamber and thereafter announced his
resignation. For time the entire
cabinet hung In the balance, and
Premier Rouvier announced the readi-
ness of himself and his colleagues to
give up power unless they were sup
ported by a substantial majority. AT
ter debate of exceptional violence a
motion favorable to the ministry pre-
vailed by vote Of $40 to LAT. How
ever, the ministerial majority is made
Up Of fractions of divergent groups
and the future Of the cabinet remains

washington, Nov. 15.-That state
statute of limitation can not be used
to protect stakeholder of failed ma
tional bank against liability on his
stock was decided by the Supreme
Court of the United States by an
opinion delivered by Justice McKenna
in the case of George G. Rankin, re-
ceiver of the Hutchinson National
Bank of Hutchinson, Kansas, versus
Edward e. Barton, stakeholder, in
the bank.
In this instance an effort was made
to enforce the individual liability re-
quirement of the national banking
law, in 1900, seven years after the sus-
pension of the bank. Barton took the
case into the Kansas courts, pleading
the state statute of limitations which
protects debtor after three years.
The state supreme court sustained the
plea. but that decision was reversed
by the decision.

Russia Is the greatest credit; for
the victory thus far achieved belongs
to the noble-minded body Of students
who year ago began to realize their
historic mission. They acted the part
Of an alarm clock for the working
classes and have been the yeast Of
the proletarlan movement. For years
they unsuccessfully tried to arouse
the peasaritry and wandered through
the villages. But they preached tn
deaf ears and were finally driven TO
follow the line of least resistance and
turned back to the cities and shops
and factories and found the men who
accomplished the October revolution"
Gorkey makes scathing character
ization of the attitude of Bourgeois,
who now, he says, would like to play

temptuous picture of the self-satisfied
tradesman in the cities, with their

NO SYMPATHY IN RUSSIA
FOR OPPRESSED PEOPLE

in operation the reforms manifesto
would be suspended.
Under ordinary circumstances, in
view Of past experiences with Poland,
the Russian people would be apt to
sympathize with coercive measures
for the suppression of the movement
in Poland, but in the present state of
public opinion coercion is more like
ly to create bad impression, especi-
ally as many liberals Immediately
greeted the appearance Of the ukase
with charges of bad faith, declaring
that 1t demonstrated that the autoc-
racy had not abdicated, asserting that
IL 1t could suspend the reform mani
festo in Poland for an indefinite term
by imperial ukase the autocracy could
likewise suspend 1t throughout the
whole of Russia. But 1t is officially
pointed out that 1t would be impossible
to place in operation the liberties be-
slowed while Poland shows a disposi-
ton to accept them in good faith.
While Poland continues to mutinously
insist upon autonomy nothing can be
done. IF the government should al
low the Poles to continue their pres
ent agitation" said an official, they
would inevitably force the government
to suppress the movement with the
bayonet which we desire to avoid. If
we yield to the Poles demand for auto
nomy we would next have to surrend-
er the Baltic provinces and then per-
haps the Caucasus and later all the
alien races, which would so decentral-
lie the power of the empire that its
disintegration would be inevitable"

King Edwards Bad Bargain.

When King Edward agreed to place

yearly sum of $2,35O,OOO and the ma.
ton is making a profit on the bargain.
1t amounted to $112,5OO last year and
is increasing. Among the properties
assigned by the king were consider

lty and Price.

The Best Example of What a Pure
Baking Powder Should Be In DUAL.
lty and Price.
A popular and efficient baking powder re-
quires two things-first, that the food made
with it shall be absolutely wholesome;
second, that it shall be sold at q reasonable
price.
In talking about the healthfulness Of
baking powder, it must be remembered
that baking powder is not an article of diet
any more than compressed yeast. One
would be quite as Objectionable for food as
the other, except that of the two, the bak-
ing powder might be preferable
We do not eat either baking powder or
yeast. What we do eat is the biscuit and
bread raised with them. When placed upon
the table no yeast remains in the bread and
no baking powder in the biscuit. Both
leavening agents have been destroyed in
the aeration and the baking; otherwise in
stead Of light bread and biscuit we should
have mass of heavy, hard-baked dough.
One well-known brand, X G Baking
Powder, is sold under $500, 900 guarantee
Of its healthfulness and purity There can
be no doubt that baking powder so guar
anteed is absolutely wholesome and perfect
ly reliable Even If it did remain in the
food it could do nothing but good
With regard to price, baking powder as
efficient and wholesome as is possible to
make can be sold, at fair profit, for one
cent an ounce. If 1t costs more the price Ii
exhorbitant.
Millions of pounds Of X G Baking Powder,
made by the Jaques Manufacturing Com
pany Of Chicago, have been sold at tho
above figure all over the country; and X O
offers the best example at present on the
market Of what good baking powder
should be, both in respect of quality and
reasonable price.

KANSAS COURT REVERSED
IN FAMOUS HUTCHINSON CASE

In the course of his opinion Justice
McKenna said
I'VE think the Kansas Supreme
Court overlooked the official character
and power Of the Comptroller of the
Currency and the decision of this court
declaring them. A national bank Is
an instrumentality of the United
States. It's circulating notes are guar
anteed by the United States and il the
United States should be compelled to
pay them the United States has a
paramount lien on the assets of the
bank for reimbursement.
The administration of the banks as.
sets is therefore vested in the comp.
troller as an officer of the United
directs his acts. The individual liza.
bilities of this stakeholder can only be
enforced by his order.
CAS- the power Of the comptroller is
derived from statute of the United
States 1t can not be controlled or
limited by state statutes"

MILITARY PATROLS KEEP ORDER.
Count White Has Enlisted the Aid Of
the Church and the Holy Synod In
an Effort to Pacify the Country and
End the Continual Strife.

St. Petersburg, Nov. IA. - The
groundless nature Of the alarmist re-
personalities that st. Bartholomew
massacre would take place was de-
monstrated when the hours passed
without the slightest development Of
an uprising.
Students in uniform avoided these
quarters and the frequent military pat.
rolls indicated that the authorities real
lied the necessity Of preventing any
outbreak In the capital.
In an effort to pacify the country
and end the strike Count White has
enlisted the aid of the church, and
the Holy Synod, which is now under
the direction of Prince Alexis Obolen-
sky, has issued an encyclical which
will be read in all the churches of the
empire in place Of the usual Sunday
sermon.
"Thus Cain killed his brother Abel"
the encyclical says, and went through
life groaning under the burden of a
great sin. Russian brothers, let us
remember what punishment our Lord
visits upon us. Let us remember we
are brothers and sons of one great
mother church and one common Rus
sia, called to work together for COM
mon welfare. Let not the blood Of
our brothers cry aloud to heaven for
vengeance"
st. Petersburg. = Perhaps the most
interesting phase of the confused situa-
ton in Russia caused by the sudden
losing of all the political forces is the
attitude of the social Democrats, who
claim all the credit for the overthrow
of absolutism and who are determin-
ed that they shall not be cheated of
the fruit of victory by bogus liberal
leaders, who took no part in the real
contest. Not only a Democratic repub-
lie but universal socialistic utopia is
their dream. Their far-reaching pro-
gram is announced in two newspapers
which have just been launched. The
Novia Zhizn new life,' and also the
Beginning" in which their aims and
views are set forth, will repay careful
consideration Of the general students
in Russia. The STATS of the papers
are composed of forty of the most
brilliant writers in Russia, including
Maxim Gorkey and Kieff, author of
the "Red Laugh"
They openly scorn the teachings of
history, claiming that the world is en-
terlng on new stage of social and
political evolution. After the COM
plete overthrow Of the present regime
in Russia they propose to erect upon
the ruins politico-social edifice which
will form the nucleus Of the future
utopian system of democracy and the
achievement of political equality. The
rext step will be the leveling of all So
cial ranks.
Gorky says:
For the proletariat the present re-
vol..tlon is only one stage to social
revolution. The bourgeois are content
with half measures and half reforms.
We unite with them for the purpose
of securing the guarantees of political
freedom, but later we will demand
guarantees from them and we are en-
titled to them. All the former des-
potic governments of Europe were
overthrow by the people under the
leadership of bourgeois.

eminent has been building across the
country from the Atlantic to the Pa
cific, will, according to information re-
ceived at the Mexican embassy in this
city, be finished and ready for use

Mexico is that the completion of this
important road means that a great
deal of freight which formerly went
by the Panama railroad will now be
transported through the Mexican re-
public, and during the ten or twelve
years which it will take to finish the
Panama canal, Mexico will profit from
the improved accommodations which
it will offer to the trade of the world.
