PATRIOTISM IN FRANCE
Policies of Premier Clemenceau and
Minister BRAND ApproUed.
Especial by French Cable to The Tribune.l
Copyright. 1907. by The Tribune Association.l

Paris Oct. 12.-Premier Clemenceau and Min
lister BRAND. persistently accused by their po-
litical opponents of having the merely destruct-
i've ability popularly attributed to extreme So
cialists, have once again proved that their abll-
tiles are singularly constructive and ready Tor
grave emergencies. NM. Clemenceau and Bri-
and both keep their very close to the
ground. and they were the first to detect the
genuineness of the outbursts of patriotism.
especially in the country districts, that mark
the departure of the young conscripts. who in
course OF the present month leave their homes
to serve under the colors. The government sails
trimmed to suit the public patriotic trend.
and another effective blow has been given by
the Radical and the Radical Socialist congress
at Nancy to the Herve-Jaures anti-militarism,
which is condemned and ostracised by their
former comrades. such NM Pelletan and
Berteaux. The true meaning Of the decisions OF
the Nancy congress is that no Radical or Radi-
cal Socialist can. without excluding himself
from his party. cast vote for Herve or Jaures
for any of their disciples. This comes at the
right moment for NM. Clemenceau and BRAND,
who seem assured of strong working
jority when parliament assemblies at the end of
the present month
Premier Clemenceau and Minister BRAND have
further given example of practical common
sense by announcing that from November 1
until the close of the parliament session no
minister can accept under any circumstances an
invitation TO leave Paris to make speeches or
take part in the ceremonies OF the unveiling
of statues. banquets other official 1unketings.
They have decided to remain in Paris and at
tend to their regular business. Singularly
enough. this is the first time that French Cab
met has had the pluck to take such a stand
against local pressure from their constituents in
the departments. c. / B.

A PEACEFUL SUCCESSION.
Germany Expects Hungary Will Accept
Francis Ferdinand as Ruler.

Berlin Oct. 12.-The prevailing official opinion
here is that, should Emperor Francis Joseph Of
Austria die in the future. the transfer OF
the crown to Archduke Francis Ferdinand would
take place without shock to the dual mon
archy and without n controversy OF moment
arising between Hungary and the new sovereign.
This opinion is based a careful study Of the
personalities of the Hungarian and Austrian
statesmen and knowledge Of the private poll
ces of the Austrian court The German gov
ernment has been careful for years to be al
ways in possession OF full information regarding
the Austrian situation. During the present
period of doubt concerning the result of the
Austrian Emperors illness teIesraphic reports
on the subject have been received by Emperor
William twice day from SchGnbrunn Castle.
The policy OF the Emperor in preparation for
the succession has been to push Archduke Fran
els Ferdinand forward, and take decision OF
importance without the latter knowing all about
the subject. This has been especially true of
Hungarian questions, and the Hungarian lead
ers have thus been brought in personal con-
tact with the heir apparent. They found him 10
be a man with whom 1t possible to work
and they have accustomed themselves 10 the
idea that they will have TO accept him as En-
peror- King. a couple of weeks ago. when
Count Andrassy. the Hungarian Minister of the
interior, saw the emperor ana desired 10 dis
cuss with him certain disputed points of the
pending settlement of the commercial and other
Austro- Hungarian controversies, his majesty re-
ferred the minister to the archduke. This au-
dience had the result of making a settlement
possible, and Count Andrassy went back to
Budapest with a higher opinion OF the arch
dukes concatory qualities.
The Hungarian leaders accept as a necessary
outcome that Archduke Francis Ferdinand will
become King under the compromise arrange
ment of 1867 The reasons which hold Hun
gary and Austria together are deemed to be of
immensely greater Importance than the person
of the sovereign. Therefore, according 10 official
opinion here, the succession win pass from
Francis Joseph to Francis Ferdinand without
protest from responsible men in Hungary.
The government officers here say that the
death of the Austrian Emperor naturally will
be followed by 2 few days of conjecture sensa-
tonal rumors and fantastic prophecies. but they
add that this will give place to the usual quiet.

EASY FOOD
Ready for Instant Use without Cooking.

Almost every one likes a cereal food OF some
kind Mt breakfast and supper, but the ordinary
way of cooking cereals results in a paSty mass
that is hard to digest, and If not properly digest
ed, the raw mass goes down into the Intestinal
tract, where gas is generated and trouble fol-
lows
Every one knows that good food properly d.
gested keeps the body well, while poor food, or
even food of good quality that Is poorly pre-
pared and not digested, is sure TO bring on some
kind of disease.
The easiest food TO digest in this line is Grape
Nuts, made from wheat and barley, and cooked
thoroughly at the factory, some twelve to six
teen hours being consumed In the different proc
esses of preparation. The food therefore, Is
ready for instant service and the starch has
been changed to- form of sugar, so that ii is
predigested and ready for almost immediate alb
sorption.
\ Chicago young lady writes that she suffered
for years from Indigestion and dyspepsia from
the use of food that was not suitable to her
powers of digestion. She says:
Il began using GrapeNuts, and / confess TO
having had Il prejudice at first, and was repeat
edly urged before | finally decided to try the
since using it, and have never been stronger or
III better health. | have increased in weight
from 100 to 124 pounds
People can be well. practically without cost,
if they will adopt scientific food and leave off
the indigestible sort There's a Reason.
Grape-NutS Food is crisp and delicious to the
taste. 1t should be served exactly as il comes
from the package, without cooking. except in
cases where it is made up into puddngs and
other desserts.-Book of delicious recipes and

RAILWAY MANGUVRES.
STRIKE MAY BE AVERTED.
Richard Bel to announce Result OF
Negotiations To-day.
Especial by French Gable to The Tribune'l


London, Oct. 12.-Manauvres are continued IN
,he railway controversy with view 10 drag
ging the government into general trade union
campaign. Richard Bell is expected to announce
ar Bradford Tomorrow the result Of his negotia-
tions with the council OF railway companies for
q preliminary conference respecting the recogni-
ton Of the Amalgamated Society. The council is
controlled by Lord Claud Hamilton, Lord Stall
bridge and Lord Allerton. shrewd and courage
Gus men, who have never concealed their pur-
pose of making a firm stand against the recogni-
tion of the trade unionists in the interest of the
shareholders. They Justify their refusal on the
ground that the non-unionists form majority
Of the entire force employed by the companies,
and that the minority is not entitled to preferen-
tial treatment. Mr.. Bell will probably avoid
.nfiammatory language, since he wants the
moral support of public opinion and sympathetic
action Of the Board of Trade. but he will insist
upon having decisive verdict from the trade
unionists, TO whom the question Of a general
strike has been referred.
The result of the voting in progress among
the railway servants viii be known early in No
1smber. but strike is not likely to occur be-
fore December, and probably will be averted
altogether. The Cancellation act, while not arm
sng the Board Of Trade with compulsory powers
does authorize intervention in a strictly quail
fed form when disastrous results are appre-
hended. Lloyd George will not neglect the op-
portunity of bringing official pressure TO bear
upon the companies. Mr.. Bell knows how help
full the Board of Trade can be in influencing
public opinion and he is playing for official in
tervention after the Amalgamated Society has
authorized the executive committee to order a
strike The general effect of the manRuvres
conducted by him has been large increase in
the membership Of the Amalgamated Society
and preliminary action for welding together all
the railway trade unions into federation be-
fore the coordinate activities of the railway
companies are forced to make strenuous fight,
Thfle they still have advantages of position.

HEALTH OF EMPEROR.
Heart Action Uncertdin-No Catas-

London, Oct. 12.-Prominent diplomatists take
a more serious view of the health of the EN-
peror OF Austria than the bulletins from Vienna
seem to Justify They have information that
the bronchitis which explains the postponement
OF the visit OF the King and Queen OF Spain is
not the main ground for apprehension. but that
the aged sovereign's heart action IS feeble and
uncertain and has frightened the doctors and
court officials. Their uneasiness is not allayed
by the reports that the Emperor persists in at
tending 10 state business and making light OF
his ailments. since he has always been an un-
manageable and headstrong patient.
Even II the pessinism which the diplomatists
do not conceal be well founded the forecasts Of
evil following the close OF an eventful reign are
not likely 20 be fulfilled. The prolonged nego-
tatons between the halves Of the Austro-
Hungarian monarchy have been carried TO
agreements signed by the ministers, and the
arrangements for the continuance OF the part
nership for another decade. not longer, are
virtually settled. Although the results must
stlll be sanctioned by the two parliaments. a
crisis in domestic affairs has been tided over
and no catastrophe likely TO break up the mon
archy is probable, even II the soverelgn's con-
valescence be moro illusory than the dispatches
from Vienna represent. The relations between
Budapest and Vienna are less strained than
for a long period. and this Is at least for tho
moment more important result than anything
accomplished at The Hague during the closing
sessions OF the unfortunate peace congress.

good democrat to be killed off yet
Former President Grover Cleveland
stepped out Of his carriage in front of his

tie OUCH at toe twinge from his old
antagonist, the gout, and then squared him
self smlingly to give the lie to the re-
port that he is incurably i'll, or that his days
of work are over.
It's true that the gout is always with
me-" he added, "and l have not yet fully
recovered from the indigestion that at
tackled me last June. l have lost about
thirty pounds Also because the gout won't
let me exercise as 1 would like to. But re-
ports of my imminent demise are greatly
exaggerated. AS a matter Of fact, l am
feeling first rate. The Indigestion is clear

I think even the gout Is better, and that

the fact that Mrs. Cleveland and the chill

mountains for week.
The trained nurse who has been caring
for the former President since his attack
last June says: Mr.. Cleveland is getting
to be really healthy. You can't put too
much emphasis in that statement to make
1t true"
Mr. Cleveland seemed much perturbed
that false reports of his condition should
reach his wife and he wired yesterday to
assure her that he was in excellent con-
dition.
