NEW FRENCH CABINET.
Rearrangement Caused by the Resig
nation of Minister Berteaux.

PARIS. November 1l.-After a cabinet
ccunrI, which was held tonight to consider
the situation created by the resignation
Friday Of Minister of War Berteaux, it was
announced that the following rearrange-
meut OF Premier Rouvier's cabinet had
been made:
Minister OF the Interior Etienne to be
minister OF war.
Minister of Marine Thompson TO be min
lister of the interior.
Minister of Commerce Dubief to be min
lister OF marine.
NJ TrOuillot. former minister of COM
merce In Premier Combes' cabinet, to be
minister OF commerce.
At a morning session of the cabinet NJ.
Etienne, yielding to the united request OF
Premier Rouvier and his colleagues, ac-
cepted I'm principle the ministry of war
and the portfolio OF minister of the interior
rendered to Deputy Sarrien. 1t was
thought that NJ Sarrien's influence with the
radicals and socialists would add consid-
cradle strength to the cabinet. but when
the ministers reassembled this evening
Premier Rouvier announced that Deputy
Sarrieu had declined the tender. NJ. Trouil-
lot was then offered the portfolio of COM
meTCe, which he accepted.
This combination, however, is not a def
mite one. and the council of ministers will
Teassemble tomorrow. when final rear
rangcment will be determined upon.

Why He Opposes Coolie Labor.

why am | opposed to the employment
of coolie labor on the Panama canal? Be
cause it will be constructed by American
labor
1.-The belief that American labor will not
go to Panama is not well grounded. Ameri-
cans Will go-American negroes to perform
the unskilled labor. American whites to
perform the skilled labor All that will be
necessary to attract them-or at least not
TO deter them-will be to devise proper con-
ditions.
They must receive good wages, assur-
anceS of good, nutritious food and habit
able lodgings, with fair surroundings when
not a. work and innocent and pleasure BILE
amusements to divert them.
II am further opposed to importing Chi
nese labor to soil controlled by the United
States The United States can do almost
ically, materially, morally and politically
But there are some things that 1t can
not do and ought not attempt to do One
is to change the essential features of our
republican form of government and the
principles on which it is based or ANYTHING
that might contribute to its undermining
AN isthmian canal is a necessity. The
Panama route has been chosen We all
want 1t. But the canal ought not to be
built by US, and l would rather that we
abandoned the undertaking. than that it
should involve SO radical a departure from
the principles of safety to our people our
civilization and our country and unlimited
competition with American labor In that
we will never willingly acquiesce"
