interesting by Mrs. Frank . Frie key.

gave the biography of Richard Wag
ner, the great German composer and
poet. She also played several piano
selections from his two famous operas,
Parsifal and Lohengrin, giving the
mythological story of their origin.
This was made doubly interesting on

these operas when they were first pro
duced at the Bayrontli theatre in Ger

Market Was Quiet and
Prices Generally Lower
New York,, Dee. 4. The New York
Evening Sua financial review today
said:
Wall Street failed to display today
its traditional perturbation over the re
convening of congress, partly because
it feels that President Wilson will
recommend in his message a course of
procedure that will soften the effects
of the operation, of the Adamson law,
and partly because it had numerous
other things to engage its attention.
There was neither great strength nor
pronounced weakness in the stock
market. After the first buying orders
which had accumulated over the week
end had been disposed of, prices eased
off and thereafter tho general level
swayed backward and forward, punct
uated now and then by some strong and
some weak spots.
The stock market was excitable and
uncertain in the late trading, following
the sensational advance in call money
rates and a subsequent substantial re
action from 15 per cent to 1 per cent.
Prices ruled a point or more below the
lajst previous closing, Jand in many
cases several points below the high
levels attained earlier in the day.
Steel reacted nearly to 124, but rallied
a point or so.
TODAY'S Wi MOVES
In the Rumanian fighting, German
forces are apparently approaching closer

Attorney General Brown at the re
quest of the District Attorneys' associ
ation has gone vefy minutely over thoj
prohibition laws of the state ana given
out an opinion as to the laws at pres
ent existing and to be passed by the
legislature to perfect the none ury
amendment. He summarizes the sit
uation in closing as follows:
"tvervthing that could be constru
ed to be in conflict with the new con
stitutional amendment has been repeal
ed by the original prohibition amend
ment adopted bv the people in Novem
ber, 1914.
a careful reading of the provisions
of our prohibition law now in force
will demonstrate that there is not a
line contained in said act that conflicts
with the recent amendment to the constitution.
'The new constitutional amendment
only assumes to repeal that which is in
onflict therewitn. -"There
being nothing 1n the Ander
son law conflicting with the provisions
of the constitutional amendment adopt
ed in November, 1916, there is nothing
to repeal.
The Home Kule amendment to me
institution and ordinances drawn
thereunder were repealed by the- orig
inal prohibition amendment.
"Compare tne language containen
in the new constitutional amendment
reading as follows: 'No intoxicating
Honors shall be imported into this
state for beverage purposes,' with the
Anderson law summarized, 'lms ougni
tn convince the most skeptical that
no part of the Anderson law has been
repealed, and the same will remain in
full force and effect until the same is
amended by the incoming legislative
assembly.
"Under the Anderson law, me state
hr virtue of its police power does po
lice the delivery and receipt of intoxi
cating liquor within the boundaries oi
the state.
" Under the additional amendment to
th constitution, the legislature will
enact a measure whereby it will be pos
sible to meet intoxicating liquor at
the boundary of the state and prevent
its receipt for beverage purposes by
any person within the state."

(Continued from paga one.)
whatever re-construction of the govern
ment was decided on, there would be no
departure from the policy announced at !
the beginning of the war. Asquith's
own statement at this time held that
England was in the war to compel re
storation of Belgium and ajtil such
time as German militarism was subdued
and the integrity of small nations as
sured. When Premier Asquith had concluded,
Sir H. Dalziel suggested he had under
stood the resignations of all members
of the present cabinet had been tender
ed to the premier. Asquith did not
make reply.
Means General Chang.
Current reports late today were that
the "re-construction" meant general
change in the entire cabinet, rather than
the mere formation of an authoritative
council. This "small, compact body"
Ford and Street Car
Gash on State Street
A crash that was heard for blocks
startled people in the vicinity of State
and High streets Saturday night abouri
10 o'clock when a Ford automobile col
lided with a street car on the cast side
of the intersection. A crowd collected
as fast as people could run but in a few
minutes it was discovered there was no
one hurt or much damage douc' to the
oar or .machine. The street cat had its
fender bent over to one side and the
loft fender of the Ford was somewhat
bent. The Ford car was proceeding
north on High street and made a wide
turn into State street to go cast. After
taking stock of the damage both the
street car and the auto proceeded on
their way. Tho Ford was from Inde
pendence. for handling of the problems of the war
was the suggestion first advanced by
those known to be in sympathy with
David Lloyd-George, who apparently
precipitated the cabinet crisis.
The intense popular interest in the
cabinet situation was evidenced when
parliament met today. Government of
ficials from the war o'ffice and all the
parliament buildings packed the floor
and the galleries.
The only members of the cabinet, how
ever, who were present when the session
was called to order were Austen Cham
berlain, secretary for India, and Lord
Robert Cecil, minister of blockade.
Commons was later declared adjourn
ed until Thursday without a vote on
the adjournment. Irish members vainly
protested this course.
David Lloyd-George, minister of war,
who is regarded as the man behind tho
present cabinet crisis, did not put in an
appearance in commons during tho en
tire session today- His absence was re
garded as indicative that he will not
reappear until a definite solution of tho
matter is evolved and announced.
Asqutth as a Slavs.
Whether the cabinet crisis has been
definwitely pasesd was still uncertain
today but there were indications that
Premier Asquith was maintaining his
reputation aa one of the greatest politi
cal "placaters" in British history.
The best information today was that
David Lloyd-George, minister of war,
did not resign his place, aa rumored
Sunday nor did he actually threaten
to step down. But he did firmly ex
press hia belief in the absolute neces
sity of a small, compact council with
full authority to conduct the war. Ap
parently Asquith acceded in this be
lief. It was circumstantially reported to
day that the unionist cabinet members
had advised the premier to resign, inti
mating if he did not take this step tho
whole unionist representation in the
cabinet 10 of the 23 members would.
The nature of Asquith 's reply was not
revealed, but it is understood the un
ionists have now decided to remain. .
Sir Edward Carson, to whom reports
attribute a place on the new "war coun
eil" of four or five members, supposed

to be in the making, said today ho had
not been offered a place so far, but in
dictated he would accept such an offer.
The man who will not serve now in,
whatever way he can is a traitor, he
declared.
Asquith wus supposed to be scheduled
for a conference with King George to
day und was expected later in commons
to make a formal statement revealing
the situation. All tho specific infor
mation London had on which to base
its reports was the formal statement of
yesterday that the prime minister,
"with a view to tho most effective,
prosecution of the war, had decided to
advise hia majesty, tho king, to consent
to the re construction of the government."
Just "Considering It"
London, Dec. 4. Great Britain and
her allies are considering what immedi
ate steps are to bo taken in connection
with the Greek situation, Lord Robert
Cecil announced in commons this aft
ernoon. He characterised the situation
there as extremely grave, following
"the most treacherous and unprovoked
attack on the nllics Friday."
"Responsibility for this," he added,
"rests upon tho king and the Greek
government."
Early in today's session of the house,
of commons, hen the cabinet crisis
was uppermost in the minds of ques
tioners of the government's representa
tives, Lord Cecil was asked whether
he could assure the house, no matter
what decision was arrived at on the
cabinet, that the present Greek dynasty
would be continued." The minister of
blockado mado no immediate reply.
Later he said Britain and her allies are
considering steps in the situation.
