Paris, June 25.-Fhe repercus-
sion of the fall of Premier Orlando's
ministry is felt with particular in
tensity here. In political circles pro-
found agitation exists which cannot
but tend to weaken still further Pre-
! mier Clemenceaus majority in the
chamber of deputies. because the
Italian parliament's ettack on It's
premier is regarded us an attack on
the big four as well.
Already the explosion in Rome has
so shaken the political fabric in
France that Premier Clemenceau has
let it be known he intends to make
a speech before the chamber of dept!-
ties, setting forth the activities of
the French government at the PEE; 2e

InSinuatiOnS Denied.
The insinuations, which in the
Echo de Paris and some other ma.
tionalistic organs have become direct
accusations, that the defeat of Pre-
mler Orlando implies Italy's intention
to seek a reapproachment with Ger
many are Indignantly denied at the
headquarters of the Italian delega-
ton here. The spokesman of the
Italian commission said today that
the crisis Is II e logica, consequence
Of the Gut'":sa. evaporation aroused
among his C)untl yIaen by the atti-
tude of the c,nfelc cuca toward th"ir
aspirations tie said that in Italy 40
imDpTtan' body Of tDirlcn is SATISFIED
with ,hn rroi'oscd pt ace, and that tte
blame which really rttts upon the bag
four is laid upon Orlando.
ut is absolutely false, however, that
Italy desires to break away from her
allies" the spokesman added. I'VE
are disappointed, of course, that there
should not be closer accord and
more intimate alliance between our
country and France, but this disap-
pointment does not lead us toward
reconciliation with our common enc
mics"
The Italian mission has received
word that Orlando's successor will
be Francesca Severio Nitti, professor
of financial Jurisprudence in the
University of Naples, who was
member fthe Italian mission to the
United States, with Signor Rittoni,
former ambassador to France.
1t Is reported that the socialists
have been asked to collaborate in the
new cabinet, but their refusal is be-
ing deemed certain. Socialist hos
tility to Orlando is based largely on
his failure to reduce the high cost Of
living or to solve other economic
problems, which, doubtless, will prove
equally embarrassing to his sue
ccsSor.
1t is pointed out incidentally that a
change of ministries does not directly
affect the Italian plenipotentiaries, in
asmuch as the latter were appointed
by the king.
Explanation of Fears
In expressing his apprehensions as
to the recrudescense of GermanophiIe
influences at Rome, PertinaX writes:
ut was only too easy to foresee the
use which the elements favoring Ger
many would make of the manifesto
imprudentlly launched by President
Wilson few weeks ago."
Pertinax adds that the only ex-
planation of the Italian fears of the
consideration o fthe Danube states
featured by France is Italy's hope of
obtaining the support fan aggran-
died Germany.
LIE Matin finds that internal diff
culties, interpreted by the socialists as
proof that the war has ruined the
nation, and nationalist wrath over
Fiume, "unleashed by President Will
sons inopportune message are the
main causes of Premier Orlando's
fall.
LIE Petit Journal feels confident that
the Italian peopel will refuse to lend
Themselves to intrigues designed to
sow dissension among the allies, and
wi ratify the decisions taken by the
entente's council.
