 Paris, April 1.-The Herriot cabinet Is out of power, overthrown by the senate because of the charges that under M. Herriot's rule the legal limit of the bank note eircu- latlon had been secretly exceeded, but M. Herriots majority in the chamber of deputies remains vir- tually intact.
 At general meeting this morn- ing of the four groups of left par ties forming the governmental ma jority since last May, a resolution was adopted Ito continue with un- shakable determination the policies for which the country voted at the last election" The meeting represented about $40 deputies con stituting a good working majority of the chamber.
 The socialists, 104 strong, went even one better when they decided they would support no other than M. Herriot.
 The senate declared itself in such unequivocal manner-the adverse vote being 156 against 1S2-that although the consultation of Presi- dent Doumergue looking to the se- lection of a new premier, have hardly even started, it may be said that NJ. Herriots immediate return 1 is very unlikely.

 President Doumergue's task is especially difficult because the other day the senate not only repudiated the financial policy of the Herriot government, but specified it could not support any government but coalition of all the republican groups. This was considered as tantamount to declaring war on the chamber.

Chicago April 11.--Investigations of the poisoning of David Cunning ham, 24 year old Gary, Ind, ma chlnist, has been started by authori- ties who have been informed of the deaths after short illnesses of five members of his family in the last six years.
 Cunningham, whose condition Is serious, Is In a hospital here. His organs were filled with arsenic, pr. Thomas A. Carter of the hospital staff reported to the coroner. He was first stricken six weeks ago after eating lunch at work. Two days later he became violently i'll after eating an evening meal at home and since has been near death.
 The family deaths began in 1912, relatives told the coroner. David Cunningham. the father, suddenly became i'll and died in his home, then In Valparaiso, Indiana. The next year, Isabelle, IS, daughter, died after two weeks illness. Har- ", a son, A. died in 1921 after being sick ten days, and Charles, IS, an- other son, died in 1922. Walter, IS, died after ten days illness in 1923.
 The mother and a daughter, May, IT, are the only other surviving members of the family. The moth CT has been left almost without sup port, neighbors said, who described the family as moderately circum- stanced. The earnings of David and the proceeds of insurance policies have been the mothers sole support, 1t was said.
 Mrs. Cunningham suffered nerv- ous collapse six months ago. An aunt of the youth. Mrs. c. R. Barry, re- ported the series of sudden deaths 10 the hospital authorities after tests had shown the presence of a large quantity Of poison in Cunningham's organs. Coroner Wolff's office said it was probable the report given him would be placed before the states at torney and action also probably would be taken on a request of rela- tives to open the graves of the dead members of the family.

DEATH DIVE FROM HOSPITAL WINDOW David Ella, While Insane, Jumps
 Out Of Window OVERPOWERS HIS NURSE
Plunges to Ground About 40 Feet --Neighbor Sees Fatal Leap and Goes to Rcscue-Hospital Mum on Details. '.

oyerpowering his nurse in the male ward of the New Britain Gen. eral hospital last evening about 6 o'clock, David Ella of 1S0 LaSaIle street, in fit of insanity, jumped through window and plunged to the ground about 40 feet below, sus- taining injuries from which he died about an hour later.
 Ella entered the hospital for an operation about three weeks ago. He was convalescent but was kept under continual surveillance because of his mental condition. He was what is known as paranoiac, and had a form of insanity wherein the pa tient has hallucinations that he Is being persecuted.
 {. Little is known of the details of the accident, a strenuous effort hav- ing been made last evening by Miss Maude E. Traver. who was tempor- arily in charge of the institution, to prevent any information leaking out. It Is known however that heroic efforts were made by Elias nurse, whose name has not been divulged, to restrain him and that despite her efforts the crazed patient broke away and plunged through the window.
 The patient was seen to jump from the window by Fred A. Dehm of 45 Griswold street, who called his brother Walter r. Dehm and ran across the street to the hospital. Here they were joined by another man from the neighborhood and a nurse, off duty, who came out from the nurses home. MT. Dehm cover ed the man with his overcoat and the four carried him into the hos- pital where Miss Traver took charge.
 pr. John B. Purney, deputy medi- cal examiner, was called and declar- d death was due to accident.
 Although death occurred about 6 o'clock no information could be se- cured at the hospital for several hours afterwards. Even the police department had heard nothing of 1t as late as o'clock, although Desk Sergeant Matthias Rival stated that 1t was nothing which concerned the the police under the circumstances.
 Efforts to reach Dr. T. Eben fteeks, superintendent, were fruit iess. Dr. Reeks Is away on a fishing rip with James S. North, president of the training school for nurses. Miss Traver, who is directress of nurses. assumes charge of the institu- ion during the absence of the su- perintendent, and she refused to make any statement until member of the board of directors had been told of the situation and advised her that the wisest thing to do, for the good of the hospital, was to tell the story.
 Ella resided at 1so LaSalle street and was a widower. He leaves one nephew.

Appeals for Safeguarding Of

AVOIDS WORD 'REPUBLIC"
Declares There Is Need For Long,
 Quiet and Peaceful Labor, Es- pecially that Which VIII Cleanse Internal Politics.
By The Associated Press.

By The Associated Press.
 Berlin, April 11.-In a proclama- ton to the German people issued today Field Marshall Von Hinden- burg, presidential candidate of the united parties of the right, the na- tionalist- conservative bloc, appeals to all patriotic Germans who desire ito safeguard the honor of the Ger man name and social peace."
 The proclamation, in which the word republic" is not used, contin- ues:
 My life Is an open book to the world. I believe l have done my duty in difficult times. AS a soldier l considered only the welfare of the whole nation, and not that of par ties. The chief executive must stand above the latter.
 Never Loses Faith
 T have never lost faith in the German people nor in. the aid of the Almighty. I am no longer young enough to believe in sudden change In things generally. Neither war nor internal rebellion can fiber ate our enchained and unfortunately disunited nation"
 There is need for long, quiet and peaceful labor, especially for that which will cleanse our political life of politicians who use politics for private use.
 Just as the first president never denied his socialistic origin, no one can ever expect me to renounce my political conventions. At the present time I regard not the form of the state, but the spirit anlmarlng 1t as decisive"

COOLIDGE STANDS PAT
 ON CHAPMAN HANGING
Says Federal Authorities Will Not Interfere
 to Save Him

Washington, April Having turned over Gerald Chapman, At- lanta penitentiary convict, to Con- necticut state authorities for trial on the charge of murder, President Coolidge sees no reason for the fed cral government to interfere with the execution of the death sentence imposed as a result of that trial.
 While he has received no special report from the department of jus tice as to technicalities which may be raised as to Chapman's status the president is inclined to regard the governments action surrender ing Chapman to the state as clos ing the matter entirely from the fed eral standpoint in view of the out come of the trial. He assumes that the state was by the action empow- cred to prosecute Chapman on the charge brought against him within its jurisdiction, and to enforce the sentence, and as far as he has been informed. no recent developments indicate that any other course will be pursued.

Mr.. Barton has searched the scrip
lures to learn something of the person
atty of the Christ. That which he
has found he has setforth in style
familiar to us from our newspapers
and modern books.
He has approached his subject
reverently and with degree of intelli-
gence unusual in persons selecting
such themes. He treats of Christ as
the executive, the outdoor man, the
.sociable man, the founder of modern
business, the master and tells of His
methods in a way which seems to
awake in the mind of the reader a
deeper realization of the meaning of
the New Testament.
The book is charmingly written.
1t may add somewhat to local inter-
est in Minnesota to know that Bruce
Barton is a former music pupil of
Thaddeus P. Giddings when both were
at Oak Park, Illinois.
