PARIS, Oct. 20. President Poln
raro today received tho formal col
lective resignation of tho cilro Vlv-
lanl ministry, giving official form to
tho decision of tho cabinet yesterday
to retire. Tho president requested
Arlstldo llrlnnd to form a new cabinet.
At n meelliiB held In tho foreign
otflco this morning under tho presi
dency of M. Vlvlanl, tho declslou was
reached to submit tho resignations
collectively.
M. llrlnnd Immediately took up tho
work of forming a now ministry,
which already was well advanced In
anticipation of President Polncaro'a
formal request.
Ono of M. Urland'n first conferences
brought together former Premiers
Kmllo Combes, Leon llourgcols and
Jules Mellne; Donya Cochin, Alexan
dre IUbot, Marcel Sembat and Jules
Guesde, members of tho present cab
lnot, and Ktlenno Clomentol and Prof.
Paul Palnlovo, all of whom were ex
pected to figure In tho porsonnol of
tho now ministry, together with other
prominent leaders who did not nt
tend tho conference.
M. Ilrland conferred later with
Jules Cambon, who was ambassador
to aormii'iy at tho outbreak of tho
war and Is expected to take an im
portant part In tho Ilrland mllnstry as
general secretary of tho foreign of
fice. Id this capacity ho is to glvo
special attention to diplomatic ques
tions arising from tho war.
M. Hrland requested his colleagues

ious portfolios.

Under tho circumstances, M. Vlv

date all elements around tho govern
ment. "I think that another person could
bettor accomplish this purposo of uni
fication," M. Vlvlanl concluded, "and
for that reason I submit my resigna
