vIvIANi MINISTRY RESIGNS
Chance in French Government Comes
as a Surprise-Briand, Former Pre-
mier, to Head Cabinet.

Paris.-The French cabinet of which
Rene Viviani was head, has resigned
and Aristide BRAND has been called
upon to form new cabinet.
The subject of M. Viviani's retire
ment from the premiership and the re-
organization Of the cabinet was dis
cussed at length by the political lead
ers, but as no definite arrangement
could be reached, the Chamber of Dep
uties, which was awaiting the appear
ance of the ministry in the house, ad-
journed on Oct. % without any formal
announcement having been made.
There had been rumors since the
resignation of Theophile Delcasse, the
foreign minister, of important changes
in the cabinet, but the withdrawal Of
M Viviani was in the nature OF a sur
prise, as his ministray received vote
of confidence in the chamber recently
by a very large majority. One expla-
nation offered is that Premier Vivianf
has oyertaxed his strength in his Off
cial position by his strenuous services
in connection with the war.
Aristide BRAND, who held the office
of minister of justice in the cabinet
and who was premier in 1913, in a
statement respecting the changes In
the cabinet. said he had received no
official mandate, as there was no min
isterial crisis. Throughout the day he
conferred with the political leaders OF
all shades of opinion with the purpose
of reorganizing the ministry so as to
include the best available men in the
country. 1t is believed M. Driand VIII
be officially invested with the mission
of forming a new cabinet as soon as
his selections for the various portfolios
are made.

"a CREW BATTLED TO LAST

Washington.-A graphic story OF
the battle for life waged in vain 800
feet beneath the surface Of the sea by
the 21 men who perished in the navy's
submarine F-4 last March at Honolulu
is told in the final report of the loss OF
the vessel submitted by board OF
inquiry headed by Rear Admiral Busch

ination of the wrecked hull after 1t
had been brought to the surface and
placed in in drydock convinced the

Discarding the theory once advanc-

lief in death to the crew, the board,
from signs within the rusted and bat
tered hulk, pieces out in it's report
dramatic account of how the doomed
men strove desperately to save them
selves as their vessel sank to the bot
tom. Fifteen met death in the engine
room, where they sought refuge at the
last; six died at their posts in the
flooded forward compartment.
All members of the ships company
are absolved from blame in this trib-
ute:
From the facts established we find
that the accident resulting in disaster

25, 1915, was not due to carelessness.

WAY OPENED TO TURKEY
Teutoss and BuIgars Open Up Road
Through Servia-conspiracy
Against 5uigaria's King.

London.-The German army which
crossed the Danube at Orsova has
joined the Bulgarians who invaded
Servia near Prahovo, and the central
powers now have an open road
through Northeastern Servia and Bul.
garia to the Aegean Sea and Constan-
tinople.
The Germans thus are in position
to send guns and munitions by river
and railway to their Bulgarian and
Turkish allies.
The invasion of the northern por-
tions Of Servia by the Austro-Germans
continues, while Bulgaria is putting
forth strong effort to get control OF
more Of the Belgrade-Saloniki railway.
So far as the north is concerned,
Servia, her allies fear, is doomed, but
in the south, REINFORCED by the Brit
ish and French, Seryia is using all her
strength to throw the Bulgarians
back. After the French victory az
Krivolak, the Servians, according to
Athens, reoccupied Veles, an impor-
tant junction point south Of Uskup,
where big battle is still in progress.
1t is argued here that If the Bulgari-
ans can be held in the south until An
glo-French re-enforcements now on the
way arrive, Bulgaria may yet be rob
bed of Macedonia, on which she has
set her heart. But the allies also will
have to make an attempt to block the
German road to Turkey, and their big
attack may be directed elsewhere.
The internal situation in Bulgaria,
which is reported serious, may have
some effect on the campaign. A mill
tary conspiracy against King Ferdi.
nand, Athens dispatches say, has been
unearthed and the leaders have been
shot. Many inhabitants of Bulgaria
are said to be still loyal to Russia and
are showing disinclination to join the
colors.
The Roumanians, too, are displaying
some uneasiness as to the inactivity
of their government, and an agitation
in favor of the allies, according to un-
official reports, is being carried on by
influential leaders
