ROME, Oct. 2s.--An interesting feature
Of the defeat Of the Ministry was the
applause with which the Chamber re-
ceived the speeches Of Premier Boselli.
Foreign Minister Sonnino and Minister
Of the Interior Orlando In explaining the
policy Of the Cabinet. Its defeat IN the
vote Of confidence was surprise. ana
II leaves the King without definite In

the Chamber.
1t is taken rs settled that he will call
on Minister Orlando to form a new Cabi-
net. The Chamber has shown itself
particularly favorable toward the Min
lister Of the Interior.
The general opinion In parliamentary
quarters Is that only a few members Of
the retiring Cabinet will be asked to
toin the new one. Former Premier
BoseIli, IL Is understood, will take ad-
vantage Of his release from the Min
istry to return to the battle front Tho
