BERLIN, Aug. 13.-The tenta-

Designate Gustav Stresemann in
dicated this afternoon that Ger
many will have a coalition gov
eminent.
Herr Gessler, who has long
served as minister Of defense,
looms as a possible dictator if
anarchy breaks out.
List Of New Cabinet.
This tentative list, subject to ap-
prevail of the various parties in
cluded:
Chancellor and Foreign Minister
Gustav Stresemann, GermaO Peo-
PIES party.
Vice Chancellor-Robert Schmidt.
Socialist.
Finance-Herr 7ilffeding. Social
list.
Justice-Herr Radbruch, Socialist.
Interior-Herr Soulmann, Social
list.
Economy-Herr Raumer, German
Peoples party.
Railroads-Herr Heinrich. nom
partisan.
Defense-Herr Gessler. Social
Democrat.
Lsabor-Brauns, Centrtst.
Some banks failed to open today
and the money shortage became
more acute. The chief fear Is that
the strike will tie up railways, pre-
venting shipment Of food supplies
into the Cities
Following a weekend Of rioting in
various parts Of Germany, in which
from twenty to thirty persons were
killed, Stresemann is believed to
have formed a cabinet that will
stand. Stresemann came into power
at time when the country is in
economic and financial chaos. The
people in Berlin, however, have re-
manned passive.
Future Looks Black.
Such privations and anxiety as
marked the darkest days of the war
have settled like an ominous cloud
over the German nation.
News Of the fall of the Cuno
government caused no excitement
here. 1t had been anticipated in
view OF the political developments
last week. Idle crowds filled some
Of the streets, but many persons
remained at home.
The food situation grows worse
All night long lines of people stood
in front OF food stores, waiting for
them to open. These distribution
points were all under police guard.
Butter, flour, and milk are in
greatest demand.
General Breakdown Feared.
The electricity, gas, street car,
and water supplies are crippled by
strikes. The Communist general
strike" which was called Saturday,
spread at some points over Sunday.
Political observers declare that
bolsheVism has not yet hit Ger.
