Rome, via Paris.-Of1cial announce
ment was made here tsat King Victor
Emmanuel had declined to accept the
resignation of Premier Salandra. The
Salandra Cabinet is to be retained
without change.
Although 1t was made known un-
officially Saturday that Signor Salan-
dra would remain at the head of the
government, this announcement was
received Sunday with great demonstra-
tions of rejoicing and manifestations in
favor of war. The delay in making
the official announcement is said to
have been due to efforts to bring about
closer cooperation among the various,
parliamentary sections. During the
interval the King received a number OF
prominent statesmen. Among them
was Deputy Admiral Bettolo, former
Minister of Marine.
May Enlarge Cabinet.
The Tribuna says there is possi-.
bility that Premier Salandra will en-
large his Cabinet by including Signor
Bettolo and Signor Pantano, former
Minister of Agriculture; the latter as
the representative of the radicals.
1t is asserted that former Premier
Giolitti will make a public statement
to the effect that he had believed it
possible to obtain from Austria con-
cessions sufficient to avert war, but
that once war is inevitable he will sup
