THE NEW FRENCH CABINET.
Coalition Ministry VIII Receive Sup
port of the Various Parties.

Paris.-A new French cabinet, head
ed by Aristide BRAND as premier and
minister of foreign affairs, came into
existence Saturday.
This is the first time in the history
of the French republic that there is
coalition ministry of all the oppos-
ing parties and factions. 1t follows
closely on the recent innovation Of
forming a British coalition cabinet of
conservatives and liberals.
This action taken now in forming
the cabinet was the elimination of a
deep, popular sentiment that at the
supreme crisis of the war party di-
vision should give way to united ac-
ton by all the parties in common sup
port of the government AS the re-
suit Of the cabinet Of Rene Viviani be-
ing representative of only a few polit-
ical groups, the ministers presented
their collective designations, and Pres
ident Poincare Immediately charged
BRAND with the formation of a new
organization combining all elements.

PEACE TALK GIVEN IMPETUS.
Ambassador Gerard's Conference With
Kaiser Gives Rise to Speculation.


Kaiser Gives Rise to Speculation.
Washington-Amb Gerard's
recent conference with Emperor Will
liam is causing much speculation in
official quarters here. Secretary Ian
sing states that Gerard had not been
directed to visit the emperor, and that
the report of the conference had been
received.
The possibility that Emperor Will
liam might have taken advantage Of
the opportunity to express to Ambas-
sador Gerard Germanys views on
peace is generally talked of here. par
ticularly as a consequence of publish
ed reports that Germany soon intend
ed to make known the basis on which
she would make peace.
Reports that Prince Won Buelow, for
mer German chancellor and ambassa-
dor to Italy, was to visit King Alton
so of Spain and later the United
States, have attracted much attention
here because of the belief that he
might be entrusted with the task of
explaining Germany's viewpoint.
President Wilson has made it clear
that until one of the belligerents in
dicated plainly desire to accept medi-
alton there would be no initiative on
the part of the American government
The fact that King Alfonso of Spain
is mentioned as a mediator is regard
ed here as significant because for
some time it has been indicated that
the king of Spain was DESTROYS of act
ing in harmony with President Wilson
when the time for making peace ar
rives.

Pennsylvania Is 8 to I.
The anti-suffrage voting appears
from the returns thus far given to
have been the strongest in Pennsyl-
vania, where the ratio is roughly esti-
mated as high as to / against suf-
frage. Massachusetts appears to have
been next, with a ratio of about to /,
while New York state, as has been ex-
pected from the fact that the cam
paign had been waged so strongly
there, had the closest ratio of about
4 to 3.
New York G. o. p. congressman.
The republicans in New York have a
safe majority in the new state as

The state elected three republican

New York, Massachusetts and Penn

The indicated majorities against suf-

Massachusetts,, 100000 (returns are
practically completely.
New York, 205,668 (about two-thirds
of the state reported).
Pennsylvania, 100000 (about one
fifth state reported).

This is the extent of the big popu-
lar vote on the suffrage question in
the eastern states. New Jersey, the
only other eastern state that has voted
on the question, defeated the PROPOSE
ton at a special election on October
10 by a majority of $4,000. In none of
these four states will the women have
the opportunity of getting the suffrage
project before the voters again for
some time; four years in New York
five in Pennsylvania and New Jersey
and two in Massachusetts.

Serbian Armies Retreating.

London.-The Germans have occupied
Kraguyevatz, the arsenal town of Ser
bia, while their Bulgarian allies are
pushing their way through the noun
tains to Nish, Serbia's war capital.
From all sides the Germans, Austrians
and Bulgarians are slowly closing in
on the Serbian armies, the position of
which grows graver daily.
The Serbians are fighting fiercely,
however, to save their country, and
have inflicted such losses on Field
Marshal Won Mackensen's force that
he has been compelled to send for re-
endorsements and leave the more seri-
Gus work of invading the east and
southern part of the country to the
Bulgarians, who have had more expe-
rience in mountain warfare such as
the Serbians are waging.

London.-The Serbian fortress of Pr

the hands of the Bulgarians, while the
Austro-Germans, advancing from the
north, are endeavoring to form ring
around Kraguyevatz, where the Ser
bian arsenal is situated. Thus, be-
sides endangering the Serbian war
capital and town where the Serbian
munitions are manufactured, the cen
trail powers, with Bulgaria, are mar
rowing the gap through which the
Serbian army in the northeast must
escape.

Strike at Montenegro.

simultaneously the Austrians are at
lacking Montenegro, to remove if pos
sible the danger of having an enemy
army on their flank. Little has been
said about the fighting between the
Austrians and Montenegrins along the
Drina river, but apparently it is of a
most sanguinary character, as it took
the Austrians, with far superior equip
ment, more than a week to force a
crossing of the river at one point
alone, that south of Vishegrad.
The Anglo-French troops are firm
ly establishing themselves along the
southern end of the Nish railway and,
crossing into Bulgaria, have occupied
the hills surrounding Strumitza, al
though the capture Of that town,
which has been reported, is not Off
cially confirmed.

Serbia, there is no reliable information

her.
Reports continue to circulate freely
from German sources of Russian
army which is to march across Ruma-
mia to the rescue. But of the British
