Extracts from editorial opinions ex-

In Brussels follow:
New Yorker HerOld.-The merits OF
the Cavell case nay be discussed when
the German Government publishes its
version. Miss Caveil. occupying an Of
ficlal position ION account of her con
nection with the Red Cross. was in
German eyes in a far worse position
the other defendants. because she
used the prestige M the influence OF
her office for the benefit of the enemies
of Germany. Ii Is probable. too, that
she sent secret Information to England
or France. We are sure that the execu-
ton would not have been ordered unless
there were weighty reasons.
German HerOld.-England sees the
necessity Of whipping up public opinion
in the United States against Germany.
The Anglo-American apers and the To-
cal Briton worshippers are no longer
energetic enough in their anti-German
agitation to please London. Therefore,
the Daily Man gives the tune, expecting
the New York papers to follow suit ODE
diently. Miss Cavell undoubtedly was
guilty OF grave violations OF the laws
OF war; otherwise she you'd not have
been sentenced to death.

~
LONDON. oct. 22-The illness Of Pre-.
mier Asquith Is apparently a blessing.
inasmuch as his absence from Parlia-
ment is preventing the agitators from
raising some carefully prepared ques-
tons intended to force the Government
which might have resulted in disaster
to the coalition.
The prevailing opinion In political
circles is that the crisis has been averted
by Sir Edward Carson's dienifed speech
explaining his resignation. The Oppo-
sition mad expected to use Carson as a
tool for the disintesration Of the Cabi-
net. but the scheme failed.
Through Sir Edwards determination
to make his resignation unaggressive
and uninjurious to the Government II Is
evident now that the crisis has practi-
cally passed despite tn. clamor of some
sections Uf The press. whereas a few days
ago the fall of the entire Coalition Cabi-
net had been confidsn nifty expected.
Many leaders of the Opposition are
pressing to the limit their demands for
a change In several of the chief Cabinet
offices and for a drastic reduction in the
number Of Cabinet members.
II is believed In political circles that
several members of the present Govern
ment may drop out. II IL generally
