PARIS, Sept. Meeting in extra
ordinary session the cabinet today
considered the question of removing
the seat of the government from
Paris in case the capital is besieged.
The matter was left undecided be-
cause Of an encouraging report from
Minister Of War Millerand, who stated
| that the situation seemed to have i'm
proved at the front.
If it is decided that the govern
ment will be taken from Paris it will
be shifted to either A1arseilles or

lected in the Franco-Prussian war. but
Marseilles is considered now because

sary might be taken to Algiers from
there and remain or French territory.

At the conclusion of the cabinet
meeting, NJ. Malvy, secretary Of the
interior, said:
Things look brighter; Paris is now
passing through a period Of suspense
unparalleled for more than 40 years,
| but is quietly hoping for the best 1t
| will be a long war and we must make
| the greatest sacrifices, but we shall
win in the end"
The progress of the Germans to-
ward the capital has led TO striking
changes in the aspect of the city.
| Though dropping of bombs from
aerOplanes over the city on Sunday
and late yesterday has failed TO cause
| a panic among residents of the cap
ital. il has nevertheless hastened the
| departure of women and children for
the south To facilitate their de-
parture the war department today

Land Office Receives Act of Septem
Der 3.

Pierre, Oct. 13.-The local govern
ment land office has received a copy
of the act of September 5, 1914,
which provides a general act cover
ing the taking Of additional home
steads. not only in case of those who
have forfeited past filings, but those
who may forfeit filings to be made in
the future, either under the home
stead or desert land entry laws of the
United States. While several acts
have been passed at former sessions
providing for additional homesteads
for those who had already abandoned
such filings, this is the first act which
seeks to provide a general rule for all
time. The instructions accompanying
the copy of the law show that to pre-
vent many and varied rulings as to
just what entities an applicant to a
second homestead, all filings under
the act will be merely received by the
officials of the local land offices and
forwarded to the general land office
for action, which will place them all
under the same general rulings and
avoid confusion.

Endorsement.

Pierre, Oct. 13.-John Sutherland,
member of the progressive party ex-
ecutive and campaign committees, is,
sued a lengthy statement outlining
his contention that the members oil
the campaign committee had agreed
only to indorse r. o. Richards as a
gubernatorial candidate On condition
that he list himself as the regular
progressive party nominee. The re-
fusal of Mr.. Richards to accept the
alignment, Mr.. Sutherland contends,
annulled such provisional action and
made the subsequent Endorsement
an unwarranted proceeding.
Mr.. Sutherland views the action
taken as tending to prevent the pro-
gressive party from getting ballot
recognition at the next election un-
less legislative action can be secured
to alleviate the situation at the 1915
legislative session.

GATED PRESS.

New York, Oct. Especial:
Scant are the actual details of the
present fighting between the allies
and the Germans, who for four
weeks have been struggling for SUI
premacy in northern France, as con-
tanned in the latest official communi-
cation.
I'VE have everywhere maintained

French war office. At all points ex-
cept one, that in the Woevre district,
German attacks are said either TO

center, between the Disc and Rheims
slight advances by the allies are
chronicled. In the Woevre diver dis
trict the Germans have delivered vio-
lent attacks. Whether they resulted
fayorably or unfavorably is not
stated.
From Germany alone came any
thing concerning the surrendered
city of Antwerp. This was to the eff
feet that the entire city, as we'll as all
the forts, are now in the hands of the
Germans. Gen. Won Beseler, the Ger
man commander at Antwerp, issued
a proclamation that citizens might
return to their vocations without
fear, and that property would be re-
spected. The German report said lit
tie damage had been done to any ex-
cept public buildings in Antwerp.
Emperor Williams army who be-
sieged Antwerp is now said to be
moving swiftly toward Ostend, with
the object of capturing King Albert
and Queen Elizabeth and the Belgium
officials. 1t is stated that the queen
already has reached England.
In addition to the force of Belgian
and English troops who fled to Dutch
soil after the fall of Antwerp and
were interned, a newspaper dispatch
says a German division unwittingly
invaded Dutch territory and was dis
armed.
