2ODY TO BE CALLED
"MINISTRY OF. WAR"
Hope Expressed That Change
Will Aid in Solving QueS-
ton of MunitiOnS-PIan-
ned by Gar.

PETROGRAD, Sept 1.-THE Rus
sian cabinet resigned today. A coali-
tion cabinet will he foriced in it's
stead. Some Of the former ministers
will have posts in the ne7 cabinet,
but il is expected that NJ. Gore nyk1n,
who as president of the council OF
ministers served as premier, will re-
tire from active service. GOremykin
was appointed Jan. 30. 1914.
Minister of War PolivanOn will re-
tain his post in the new cabinet, ac-
cOrding ~ reliable reports. Foreign
Minister Sazonoff is also expected TO
keep his portfolio. 1t is understood
that Emperor Nicholas has requested
Finance Minister Bark TO continue his
duties.
According 20 reliable reports, the
reorganization Of the cabinet has been
planned by the car for more than a
month. The new cabinet Will be
known as a "war ministry and it is
probable that a minister Of munitions
will be added to it, as was done in
England
Premier Goremylxin has always been
regarded as a bureaucrat and reac-
tionary. It was his influence that
caused the downfall of NJ. Witte as
power in Russia.
When he was appointed premier one
authority said
ssThe friends Of the premier are
now hoping for great results"
ONLY recently the cZar bestowed
upon him the order of st. Andrew
highest OF muscOvite decorations and
a mark of signal honor. He is n
years old and one of the richest men
in Russia

First Chief Scores Advantage
in Play For Position by An
nOunCing Willingness to
Discuss Affairs.
VILLA LOSING CONTROL
OVER SOME OF HIS MEN
American RanCher is Held For
Ransom and American
Troops May be Sent
to the Rescue.

WASHINGTON, Sept 11.-Gen
Carranza, the first chief of the MeXi-
can constitutionalists has scored a
distinct advantage in the play for
position in the negotiations to restore
legal government in Mexico. BY an
nouncing his Willingness TO consider
Mexican affairs from the information
al viewpoint alone" and coupling this
with the announcement that he is pre-
pared TO submit proof that he main
tains a defactO government with all
of the attributes necessary for recoS-
milton" he has forced the hand OF
some at least of the South American
conferees.
They are on record as insisting that
if Carranza could prove his claims
that he dominates practically all of
Mexico his requests for recognition
should seriously be considered. This
is Just what CarranZa now proposes,
and asks the cOnferees either 10 IN
vestigate personally or by committee
whether he is telling the truth.
1t IS expected that another confer
ence between SCc'y Lansing and the
Latin-American diplomats will ee held
next week TO consider the replies TO
the peace conference invitation. Since
TINS was eNleuueu the SlIudllou lids
been changed materially through the
defeat of Villa at several points in the
central states of Mexico with the con-
seQuent serious weakening of his
power. There is a growing belief in
official circles here that the claims
set forth by Carranza are so strong
that they must be considered serious
ly.
Meanwhile, the Villa cause has been
disCredited further by the kidnapping
Of John Lowenbruck, an American
rancher by Mexican bandits from Co
lumhus y. NJ. He is reported held
for So. 600 ransom and Sec'y Lansing
has sent a peremptOry demand TO VII
la to see that he is turned loose 1t
is said that if his whereabouts can
be learned a United States cavalry
troops may be sent to rescue him even
though 10 do so they would have TO
cross into Mexican territory.
Confidential reports TO the state de-
partment indicate that as result OF
recent reverses. Villa is losing control
of some of his forces ana that they
are raiding ranches on their own ac-
count.

Yet at the same time Peter felt very
