RESIGNATIONS TO
RECONSIDERED
I'ARIS, Sept. 10. The resignation
of the Rlbet Ministry waa decided
upon unanimously after the cabinet
mooting this morning. President
Polncuro has naked tho premier and
tho ministers to withhold their resig
nations until after the presidents of
the senate and the chambar of depu
ties have returned to Paris to discuss
the situation.
Eastern Offensive
Believed Halted
PARIS, Sept. in. Russia's proba
ble new line in Livonin, following tho
retreat from Riga under von Hlndcii-'
burg's pressure, Is now beginning to I
define itself. The retrogrado move
ment appears to have been definitely,
halted in some soctors at least, where
the Russians aro digging in to make
a stand.
Berlin reports reveal this state of
affairs more clearly than Potrogrnd.
Judging from the Gorman statements i
tho Russian lino now extends from
west of Kokenhusen, on the Dvtnn,,
about twelve miles east of Freldrich
stadt, and approximately fifty-live
miles southeast of Riga, northwest,
thru the town of Bending, twelve
miles west of Vcnden, nnd on to the'
Gulf or Riga. Thus the front north
west of Dvinsk, instead of curving
sharply west just beyond Jacobstadt,
as It did to take In the Riga district,
now loaves the Dvina there and con
tinues on in almost a straight line
to tho coast.
Roth Germans and Russians seem
to think tho now German invasion
will not proceed much further this
full. The approach of the wet and
cold seasons militates against a real
push toward Pctrograd at present, It
Is hold, even if von Hindeuburg had
tho men to spare for the difficult task.
