Lloyd George Has Resigned
British War Cabinet Totters

London, Dec. 3.-The political cri-
sis has become acute. 1t is stated in
well-informed quarters that David
Lloyd George, the war secretary, has
rendered his resignation which has
not yet been accepted.
Premier Asquith has decided to adj
wise the King to consent to the re-
construction of the government. This
was officially announced tonight.
The statement reads: "The prime
minister, with view to the most eff
Tective prosecution of the war, has
decided to advise his Majesty the
King to consent to the reconstruction
of the government"
Premier Asquith left town yester-
day, but returned this morning and
throughout the day there have been
consultations and meeting of party
leaders at the premier's residence.
Mr.. Lloyd George had long con-
sultation with the premier this after
noon. Other visitors were A. Bonar
Law, secretary of the colonies and
the Marquis of Crew, lord president
of the council
Perhaps the most important signif-
canoe was attached to the fact that
Sir Edward Carson anu Mr.. Law ap-
peared together and addressed a
meeting of the Unionist committee,
while the Earle of Derby, under sec
retary for war, had long interview
with Mr. LloydGeorge.
1t is understood no official an
nouncement will be made tonight, but
that Premier Asquith WILL see the
King again tomorrow morning and
thereafter make a statement in the
House of Commons in explanation of
the situation.
ment has been made for Secretary
Lloyd-George to see the King, which
would Indicate that at the present
moment there is some prospect that
the crisis will be surmounted with
the complete collapse Of the coalition
Cabinet and without the resignation
of Mr.. Lloyd-George.

OUR GREAT NEW INDUSTRY
An Unprecedented Demand for High
Explosives Developed Trade in
BenzoI and ToluoI.

In response to the unprecedented de-
mand for high explosives a new indus
try, the recovery of benzol and toluol,
suddenly sprang into existence in the
United States in 1915. Benzol and
toluol, Indispensable raw materials
from which explosives, dyestuffs and
other chemical products are manufac-
tured, are oils similar to gasoline in
appearance and smell and are present
in the gas that is driven off from coal
when it is made into coke. Before the
European war the demand in the Uni
ted states for these products was so
small and the price so low that but one
company engaged in coke-making
sought to recover them on large
scale. Late in 1914 the price Of ben
zol, and particularly toluol, rose to
such point that many other COM
panies began to build plants to recover
these oils, which were then being
burned with the gas, and by the end
of 1915 there were 10 new plants for
benzol recovery in operation and 9th
ers in course Of erection. 1t is esti-
mated that between 100000 and g.
100000 tons Of coal were carbonized in
the ovens that furnished the gas from
which the oils were recovered.

Small But Useful Dynamo,

Farmers and others living on the
banks of small streams are showing
much interest in the new invention of
A. G. Watkins of Philadelphia, which
is a small waterpoWer plant floating
on the surface Of the stream. This
generates sufficient power to operate
a small dynamo, which will supply
the current to light modern house
Of moderate size, or do other useful
chores around the farm or suburban
residence The plant consists of two
triangular floats secured together so
that there is a gradually narrowing
channel between them. The broad
end of this is turned upstream and
the narrow end is equipped with a
water wheel. The water enters the
large opening, and in passing out acts
on the wheel, which is in turn geared
to small dynamo.

MOUSE BITE KILLS BABY
Slight Wound Infects Washington, o.
c., Infant With Blood Poisoning
Coroner Warns People.

There are occasional instances
whore rodents, both the house rat and
mouse, have been known to invade
the bed or crib occupied by young chill
dren, especially infants when left
alone sleeping. Such an incident is
recorded in the death Of William Web
ster Jackson, son Of Mr. and Mrs.
William W. Jackson of Washington,
whose death is reported in the vital
statistics as due to a virulent blood
poisoning from the infection of a
mouse bite on the cnild's neck.
One night while the infant, only two
weeks old, was sleeping in his crib be-
side his mothers bed mouse crawled
into the crib and, biting the baby on
the neck, inflicted what was then
thought to have been an insignificant
wound. A simple application was made
to the scratch or wound inflicted by
the little rodent, and nothing more
was thought of it for the time being.
However, the bite resulted in an in
lection which spread so rapidly that
physicians found it impossible to save
the child's life. A high fever devel-
oped, and the child died.
Coroner J. Ramsay hewitt, who in
vestigated the case, is satisfied that
the child's DEATH was directly trace
able to the bite of the mouse. In CON-
menting upon the case he said:
''It is fact widely known among
medical men that rats and mice carry
disease, and householders should make
every effort to rid their houses of them
as matter Of personal and public
protection. Cats, likewise, are men
ace to public health, carrying germs
of disease to a marked degree. The
determination of rats and mice should
be undertaken by the local and public
health service"

A Query or Two.
(From the Vermont Tribune)

In connection with the senatorial
question which is just now engaging
the attention of some of the papers in
Vermont. and on the sUpp0sitiOn that
Carroll S. Page desires to succeed HIM
self, 1T would seem natural enough to
asks.Why the senator has not as yet
taken the people of Vermont into his
confidence on the subject Of the success
sion and made frank statement of
the grounds on which he desires, and
hopes for, a reelection.
Constructive legislation is a live
topic these days, and is being brought
to the front in many Of the state
papers and under these circumstances,
q bearing directly upon the senatorial
succession, it seems natural enough to
ask Senator Page a question or two.
For instance.
has he proposed, stood behind, and
been able to push to a successful issue
in the senate during his eight years
service in that honorable body?
Did he really vote against the rural
credit bill, and the bill looking to the
protection of the sources Of water
power in these United States? And if
so, will he tell his constituency why?
The senator introduced long time
ago a vocational educational bill that
had merit, and which Vermonters, in
common with the people of other
states, hoped to see become a law
Nothing of definite nature has been
heard from that measure for some
time What has happened to it?
We believe that candidate for any
high position has nothing to lose, and
everything to gain, by taking the
public into his confidence; and that q
close relation and frank understanding
between the two will inure to the
benefit of both. adv.
