Prnsalnent la Pahlle Life 1 for Thirty Year May Head w OsTrrnsirsl. PA RIP, Feb. St. Premier Arlstlde Brland. who succeeded Clemenreail as head of the French cabinet on July 23, 1W9. today ten dered the resignation of his ministry to President Fallerles. On November 2 last Brland formally retired, but a tew hours later he was restored to power and formed a new cabinet, from which all elements not thoroughly In sympathy with his alti tude toward labor had been eliminated. The present situation 'is wholly different and the premier . had declared himself w-eary of the bickering of Parliament and the Intrigues of the groups nominally sup porting him and expressed the wish that he might he relieved Of tha' responsibility of government. At 1:30 o'clock this afternoon the cabinet met at the Ely nee palace with President Fallerles and soon afterwards the an nouncement of Its retirement was made. The retiring ministers are: Premier Brland. Justice. Oirard; foreign affairs, Plchon; Marine. Admiral Boue Le Lapayrere: public Instruction. Faurel finance, Klotz; commerce, ljupuy; agri culture, Raynaud; colonies, Morel, labor, Lafferre; public works, Puech. Itealanallon Accepled. Later In the afternoon It was announced that President Fallerles had accepted the resignation of the cabinet. Tremler Brland and the other ministers went direct to the Kb see palace from the ministry of war. On behalf of hlnmelf and colleagues M. Brland read a communication addressed to President Fallleres. In this It was declared that the resignation of the ministry was Imperative on account of the growing hostility of certain elements in the republican coalition which were constantly blocking the government's program dedi cated to social progress and national order and security. The cabinet's ambition was to carry out a broad program of conciliation and appease ment. So far as the question of the church was concerned the ministers were convinced that the church and state having been separated the work of laiclsatlon should be reasonable and tolerant and with respect for all religious beliefs. President Fa'lleres has not Indicated who he will request for forming a ministry. The availability of Senator Antolne Monls has been suggested to the president by on Influential group. M. Monls was minister of Justice in the Waldeck Rousseau cabinet and for thirty years haa been an Important figure In public life. SENATE TIED UP IN NIGHT SESSION (Continued from First Page.) had received a telegram In reply saying that the governor had not favored Mr. Lorlmer's election and referring him to hla published statements. Characterizing Mr. Lortmer'g discussion of Ms case as a charge against Governor L)neen of usurpation, Mr. Crawford criti cised the Illinois' senator's course as un justifiable In view, of the fact that the testimony bad been closed, aid the gover nor foreclosed against reply, -' Trie senators did not remain In their seats, and Mr. Crawford had proceeded for little more than half an hour when there were two calls for a quorum. When the first call came there were lees than a dozen members In their seats. When a quorum was secured a motion to take a recet.s was voted down and Mr. Crawford proceeded with his speech. Referring to the plea that the present proceeding was an effort to assassinate the character of Senator Lorlmer, Mr. Crawford declared If deterred by such allegations the senate would brand itself aa a coward, an abject toward. "Great God," the senator exclaimed ve hemently, "are we to turn aside and dis regard direct testimony of bribery simply because some one says that to proceed may injure some one? If we are t3 be so controlled, It Is belter that we should abolish the senate and burn our court houses." ' . M. Crawford asserted that In his cam paign for governor Mr. Deneen had been "hounded, not by democrats, but by re publicans led by Mr. Lorlmer." He reiterated that the election of Shuit leff as speaker and Lee O'Netl Browne as democratic leader were steps In a cor rupt program. "The sitting member did not have to be In Springfield, he had his forces well In hand and they were there," declared Mr. Crawford. "I said this In the beginning and I don't retract to the extent of a hair's breath. They were on hand and the sitting member did not have to be there."

RAILROAD MEN IN CONFERENCE General Counsel for Eastern Roads Hare Floor Exclusively. SHIFT IN SENTIMENT OF HEADS Wall Street Interpret Abandonment f tieneral Conference. Idea to t nance Attitude Toward le rlaloa of Comnslaalon. NEW TOHK, Feb. 27-Only the legal phases of what the eastern trunk line rail roads propose to do In the face of the decision of the Interstate Commerce com mission, denying Increased freight rates, wete considered at a general conference here today. It was a conference exclusively of general counsel In which executive heads and bankets, so far as can be learned, took no part. Fifteen attorneys discussed the situation for several hours In the offices ot Vice President A. 11. Harris of the New York Central, head of Ita legal department. After the conference Mr. Harris said In part : "A conference of counsel of some of the eastern lines was held today )rj the New York Central offices at the Grand Central terminal to consider the freight rate de cision handed down by the Interstate Commerce commission. It was said no conclusion was reached as to the course the companies would decided to follow and might not lie for some days." The abandonment of the original plan to have a meeting of the executive heads, was due It is Bald, to the railroad officials' desire that their counsel shall first de termine the status of their case from a legal standpoint. It is believed that while the discussion today hinged on the ques tion of the constitutionality of the Mann Elklns bill, the fifteen attorneys present came to no decision whether the consti tutionality ot the bill would be attacked. It Is understood the conferences will con tinue informally for several days without publicly announcement until it Is definitely decided what action is to be taken. Wall street interprets th change In plans that is the abandonment of the general confer en. idea, which was to have been In the nature of an indignation meetlngt o a shift In sentiment. Railroad heads were almost without exception pesslmlBtlo when Uie decision was first made known, but subse quently several approved the ruling and many powerful financial Interests also took this view. Those present at th econference today Included Qeorge V. Massey, general coun sel of the Pennsylvania railroad; Edward D. Dobbins, general counsel of the New York, New Haven & Hartford railroad; Clyde Brown of counsel for the New York Central lines, who had charge of that cor poration's fight for Increased freight rates Hugh Bond ot the Batlimore & Ohio; George Brownell of the Efle; W. H. Jen ney of the Lackawanna; John B. Kerr of the New York, Ontario & Western; Jack son F. Reynolds of the Central Railroad of New Jersey. DIANA PUT IN BATHING SUIT Rev. J. II.
