AIR MAIL SERVICE.
 N. Y. TO CHICAGO
Post Office Department Considers Ex- perimenting With Rapid Transit
 by Use of AirpIanes.

Washington, Dec. 14.-Regular air plane mail service between New York and Chicago is being considered, by the post office department. An nouncenent was made today that the plan is regarded practicable and might be established with part of the pro- posed $1O0,000 postal appropriation by experimental aerial service
 Department officials estimate the flight of 720 miles could be made in from six to fourteen hours, with an average time of eight hours, and a load of from 500 to 1000 pounds of mail. Flying would be at night, a plane leaving each city at 6 D. m. alighting at three regular stations in the Vicinities of Williamsport, Pa Niles, and Napoleon, Ohio, where extra machine fuel and equipm ent parts would be maintained. At Niles a second machine would be main tained. Eventually emergency alight- ing stations might be established every twentytWo miles, each equipped with powerful guiding lights
 Postal authorities suggest that let ters dispatched before 6 o'clock at either New York or Chicago would be delivered normally before g o'clock the following morning, but under best condition and with special messenger service, might be delivered soon after midnight.

New CabineS DiSaDpOintmcnt

Paris, Dec 14, a. m.-The disap- pointment shown by the press over the new administration is emphasized in the comment on yesterdays sitting of the chamber of deputies. Even Premier Briand's sensational annouce- ment of his intention to prohibit by decree the sale of spirituous liquor passes almost unnOticed. The steady supporters of the premier, such as the Figaro are but lukewarm in their appreciation. Alfred Capus, editor of the Figaro writes:
 Premier Briand faced his adver- sares with rare authority. On the question of the German peace propos- al, which dominates the hour. his sin cerity and eloquence were unchanged. Neither is it possible to contest the value of the proposed reforms-espe- cially that concerning alcohol which the government has engaged to carry out in the shortest possible time. We do not believe in his will and energy,' say the opponents of Br1- and. It is for him to answer them tomorrow by acts and decisions and by prompt and irresistible vigor to show that he is truly master of the situation"
 Tn the senate today the new min istry will have to face another on- slaught. This time Georges Clemen- ceau, who characterizes the new gov- ernment as an attempt to mend broken down engine by putting on a new pair of tires; Henri Berenger and Adrien Gaudin de Nillaine and others intend to interpellate the government on the general situation. If Premier Briand accepts the debate the senate will go into secret sitting, for which all preparations have been made. It will not, however, be as long as one the chamber held, as the senate is
 unanimously of the opinion that the sitting should not last more than three or four hours.
 Copenhagen, Dec. 14, Via London.- A despatch to the Politiken from Berlin says: What the entire city and country are discussing now is not the procla-

 "Despite the press opinions from enemy countries of a discourag ing
 nature, telegraphed to Germany, it is hoped they do not express the opinions of the respective governments.'
