The full extent of the disaster which centered ! upon the provinces of Atacama ‘and Coquimbo became more fully known today with the. reopening of tele- craph ‘communication with north Chile. ‘ ; tn these two prowinces the victims number 1,500, as far as is known, but it is expected the number of communication is resumed with many emall villages in the’ interior whose tate remains unknown. , Dispatches today from LaSerena told of serious damage which the earthquakes inflicted in the Topo; mines. : | Martial law has been declared at Vallernar and in Copiapo owing to. the looting which bandits have been verpetrating on the distressed popu- lation. The bandits are believed for the most part to be prisoners whe escaped from the jails. The removal of debris in the. af-| flicted regions has been started with |) the help of soldiers.

This phenom- enon could be seen for a-great dis- tance. The tremors continued all night and Saturday morning.

The ministerial resignations filed last night, were precipitated by, the decision of hte United Socialists not to participate in a coalition min- istry which included members 6f the e But the friends of Chancellor Wirth were not oblivious of the feeling that he had outlived his usefulness and now has became a victim of a policy of inde- eision and inactivity which. found its culmination in the government's fail- ure to make a practical arrangement with the allied reparations commit- tee during its recent visit to Berlin, Ever since the assassination For- eign Minister Rathaneau, the Chan- cellor have been described as a mar, who apparently possessed an inspir- ation, no initiative. This attitude gave added weight to the assertion that the late Foreign Minister was Wirth’s inspiration, and the force which urged him on.

In all, President Ebert is confront- ed with one of the most critical prob- lems of his administration, especi- ally in view of his party affiliations. Among the solutions suggested to- day, the proposition for a cabinet of néroartisan experts seemed _ifese- favored although the . shortage of ayail sble candidates who would eventual- ly command the confidence. of the Reichstag was admitted on all sides. Yt is also argued that a purely bour- geois cabinet would be short lived, in view of socialist opposition in the Reichstag, which would be strongly sugmented by the growing -unrest among the working population, : The middle party leaders are also convinced now that the moderate: su- cialists' failed to assimilate the min- ority radical wing in the new united narty, which yesterday succumbed'to vressure exerted by the former ‘in- dependent socialists led by Arthur Crispien. - Gives His Reasons. When accepting the resignation. of the cabinet. last evening President Ebert requested the Wirth govern- ment to carry on until a new minis- try was formed. Today President Ebert ‘conferred with leaders of both socialists and non-socialist parties. \ ,Explaining to newspapermen the reasons for his resignation Dr. Wirth today said that since the last note af the reparations commission ‘had been approved by all parties, except the socialist, is seemed as if it would be possible to form a coalition but that as the socialists refused to par- tiacipate in the proposed coalition ii. becarhe urgently necessary to take some! action under which Germany could pursue a settled external pol- icy and the resignation of the Wirth cabinet thus appeared to be the only solution. CONFUSION REIGNS. Today the president will undertake the first steps toward the appoint- ment of a new cabinet. During the night the situation was one of utter confusion. A number of solutions of the crisis already have been sug- gested. One is for a cabinet of “bus- inessmen without party affiliations” while another probability concerns elf with a ministry composed only of bourgeoisie party. It.is uncertain {whether Wirth again will be com- missioned to constitute a new min- istry. |ESCAPES FROM JAIL ‘AGAIN Beach, N, D., Nov. 15—Omer Crawford, who has escaped “from some six jails in North and South Dakota, and who was being held in the county jail at Buffalo, S.
