ical superiority in Flanders and as

The British battleship Bulkark was
blown up at Sheeln SIS base on Thurs
d:y, probably by an internal explosion.
The next day in -he house of commons
Winstoc yhurchi' practically offered
his resignation, if ,:c nation desires It.
Yet here has beeh n, response either
wy. Coupled with h., proffered resig-
nation. the first ic''i of the admiralty
gave assurances that Great Britain
could lose a superdreadnought
month and still retain command of the
seas. He based his assertion upon the
claim that by the end =; th4 year the
strength o" England's navy will be in
creased Is capital ships beyond what
it was at the outbreak Of the war,
whereas Germany could have only
three more first-line vessels. The Eng
lish figures are susceptible of serious
challenge. Germany has undoubtedly
added two great dreadnought battle
ships and one dreadnought cruiser to
her navy since the war began. In all
probability she will have four more
capital ships, and if she can expedite
construction, she will add two to these
four, all ready for service by the end
of 1915.
The Turkish army has halted IT'S Of
fensive in the Causasus during the
week. No explanation has been forth
coming, and no news of the situation
in Constantinople has been allowed to
leak through to the outside world.
Differences between the Turks and
Germans concerning two divergent OBJ
jectives may break out at any time.
The Turks without doubt desire to con-
centrate their chief efforts against
Egypt, while German strategy requires
all available Turkish troops to be sent
to the Caucasus to divert the Russians
from operations against Prussia's east
ern frontier. The room here for SER
ious contact of interests at Constanti-
nople is becoming more and more ap-
parent.

One of the questions that will again
be brought befort the state legislature
when it convenes will be the location
for a second hospital for the insane.
1t is said that it will be positively nee
essary for some provision to be made
and the solons will this winter have
chance to look into the matter. The
institution at Jamestown has 932 in
mates and as the natural increase is
125 tc $50 per pear and authorities
state that it is impossible to handle
more than 1,500 patients under one ad-
it would seem that an
other institution of this sort were bad
ly needed.

FRENCH MINISTER
issues BOOK ON
CAUSE OF war

Paris, Dec. 1.-The French ministry
of foreign affairs made public, the
Yellow Book, bearing on the causes of
the present war. It has 16 pages, de-
voted primarily to the recital of ne
gotiations following the delivery of
the Austrian note to Servia, July %
last, which preceded the declaration
of war by Germany on Russia Aug.
1, and on France Aug 8, and is
brought to close by the reproduc-
tion of a declaration of the triple en-
tente powers, Great Britain, Russia
and France, not to conclude peace
separately.
An abstract of the Yellow Book
given out by the foreign Office lays
emphasis on the responsibilities of
Austria as the primal cause of the
conflict, and says Germany persis-
tently avoided every opportunity to
adopt measures of conciliation, and
to reach settlement.
It places the responsibility fully
upon Austria and Germany, and re-
lates that Great Britain, Russia and
France, were ready to adopt a means
of settlement, but the Teuton allies
would not consent.
France, according to the Yellow
Book, exhausted every possible avenue
of conciliation before she decided to
draw the sword to defend her very
life,

New York, Dec. 1.-General Won
Hindenburg has held fast to his ad-
vance position at Lowiscz in Poland
during the week, and the disaster pre-
dicted for him by Petrograd observers
has not happened. Both the Russian
and the German capitalists iiiS:::t iiiS::t tHo:
the enemy is being held in check, bu.
since the Germans are now as near
Warsaw as they were when the week
began, a defeat cannot have been suf-
fered by either of the armies.
General Won Hindenburg has been in
danger since the beginning of his drive
against the opponents who outnumber
him two to one. He is probably in no
more precarious position than he must
have expected to be when he left Ger
man territory. It seems certain his
lines of communication are open,
which will permit him to fall back if
the Slav assaults threaten to over
whelm him. Unless the Germans are
able, however, to follow so closely as
to prevent a new concentration behind
the Prussian frontier defenses, they
cannot win decisive victory. The ad-
vance by the Germans into Poland are
primary diversions for preventing
Russian invasion of Germany. It is
not enough for the Slavs to drive them
back; it must be prevented from re-
curing.
The fighting in France and Flanders
has been unimportant throughout the
week, although there have been per-
sistent reports that the Germans are
preparing for retirement. These
|rumors that the Germans are prepar-
ing for a retirement have been persis-
tent. These rumors seem improbable
at present in view of the French gov
ernment's official statement this week
that the allies are outnumbering the
Germans. Fifty German army corps
are said by Paris authorities to be in
France and Belgium, making a prob
able total of 100000 men. That the
allies have been unable as yet to sur
pass this number is due without doubt
to the shortage of equipment. They

London, Dec. 2.-The monarchs OF
the three great European powers are
now at the front; Emperor William
arrived at Insterburg, in East Prussia
and is within a score of miles Of the
scene of the heavy fighting during the
last few days with the invading Rus
slams. Emperor Nicholas departed
from Petrograd for the scene of action
yesterday. King George is making
his first visit to the line of battle in
France.
Therefore the battle in northern Po'
land, concerning the progress OF
which there has been SO much mys-
terry, is now being fought out under
the eyes of the German and Russian
emperors.
:. Virtually the heads of all the war
ring nations are with their troops, as
the king of Belgium, as usual, is
spending all his time With the SOL
diers, while President Poincare OF
France started yesterday for another
visit to the northern battlefield.
Official news from Poland continues
scanty, but with both headquarters
claiming successes it is impossible to
say how the battle is going. There
is no doubt of it's intensity.
The Germans, when they started
for Warsaw, dashed full tilt into a
mass of Russians, and forced their
way so far that Russians closed in on
them. While Petrograd was exrcct'
ing to hear that the Germans had
been annihilated, the Teutons fought

Evidence of Trouble in Col
lege Board Becomes More
Apparent---The President
Elected Two Weeks Ago
Don't Stick.

Fargo, N. D., Nov. 28.-Is it Presi-
dent Ladd, Or President Worst at the
Agricultural college?
Some of the parties concerned think
it is double-header; while others are
confident that it is Ladd: still others
maintain that it is Worst
One thing is certain: Clark Kelley,
c. F. Nugent and George H. Hollister
have resigned, and their resignation
is accompanied by statement which
sizzles. They consider that Mr.. Ladd
is the real president of the institution,
and that the meeting of rour trustees
who rescinded the action of the entire
board was really illegal, although they
say nothing of raising that issue. They
seem to have quit.
Mr.. Nugent has served for six years,
Mr.. Kelley for seven and one-half
years, and Mr.. Hollister for the same
length of time, all having been origin
ally appointed by Governor Burke.
That Professor F. E. Ladd Of the
chemistry department, was elected
president of the Agricultural college
by the unanimous choice Of the board
of trustees as a meeting held a week
ago last Tuesday, was the sensational
revelation made yesterday in a
statement issued by Geo. H. Hollister,
Clark Kelley and c. F. Nugent, men,
bers of the board who yesterday filed
their designations with Governor L. B.
Hanna. President Worst was retired
with the honorary title of president
emeritus. Several days later, four
members of the board met and re-
scinded their former action in toto.
AS result it is declared, conditions at
the farm school are somewhat up in
the air as far as the management Of
the institution is concerned.
