BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Among other members of the min
istry who are not in the war cabinet
are: Lord High Chancellor, Sir Robert
Bannatyne Finlay; Secretary OF
State for Foreign Affairs, Arthur x.
Balfour; Secretary of State for Col
onies, Walter Hume Long; Secretary

Lord of the Admiralty, Sir Edward
Carson; Minister of Munitions, DR.
Christopher Addison; Minister Of
Blockade, Lord Robert Cecil; Food
Controller, Baron Davenport; Ship.
ping Controller, Sir Joseph Pator
Maclay.
The important point in the novel
organization of the new cabinet is
that it concentrates far more power
in the hands of the premier than any
British system ever known before.
Lloyd George has not hesitated to
place himself in a position more
closely resembling dictatorship thar
he was willing to give Asquith.
Under the arrangement it is an
nounced the chief directors of the war
viii be LloydG George, Lord Miner
and Mr.. Henderson.
Well informed sources state that
the new governments measures fol
food control viii be preceded by a
measure for the entire control OF
| the liquor trade, and the absolute pro-
hibition of consumption of spirits ex-
cept incidentally, are expected.

BARGE, READY FOR SEA
LIBELLED FOR INJURY

The American barge Sadie C. Sum-
ner was libelled yesterday morning
by Jackson Jones, negro employed
aboard the pilot boat, and who claim
ed damages for injuries sustained
when the barge was towed into the
harbor here two weeks ago.
The accident upon which the libel
was based took place when the barge
was being towed into Pensacola by
the tug Echo. At the entrance to the
harbor small boat carrying the pi-
lot and rowed by Jones came along
side the Echo, but it is claimed that
instead of stopping, as is the custom,
the tug passed on, and a little later
the skiff came alengside the Sum
ner.
Nearing the barge, man aboard
threw out line, to the two in the
small boat, and it ise stated that this
caught the negro around the neck,
choking him severely, and otherwise
injuring him. The vessel was libelled
Sunday and settlement effected Sun
day afternoon whereupon the vessel
was freed. She is loaded and ready
for sea and will probably get away
today.

Danger Signal

If the fire bell should ring would
you run and stop it or go and help
to put out the fire? 1t is much the
same way with a cough A cough is
a danger signal as much as a fire
tell. You should no more trv t.
suppress it than to stop a fire bell
when it is. ringing, but should cure
the disease that causes the coughing.
This can nearly always be done
by taking Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. Many have used it with
the most beneficial results 1t is
especially valuable for the persistent
cough that so often follows bad
cold or an attack of the grip. Mrs

Remedy is the best medicine for
