FALL OF BRATIANO. Confirmation of the report of the fall of the Bratiano cabinet in Eu-mania Eu-mania is yet to come, but if this event actually has come about it is fraught with great possibilities for the allies. Tho Vienna dispatch announcing tho political change in Bucharest has it that Take Joncscu is forming a new government. govern-ment. Jonescu was prominent in Rumanian Ru-manian affairs at the outbreak of the war and he was among the Rumanian leaders who, in the days of that country's coun-try's neutrality, urged her entry into the war on the side of the allies. Frcmier Bratiano headed the Rumanian Ru-manian delegation to tho Paris peace conference and signed tho treaty as the representative of Rumania. Leaving Paris in July last and returning to Bucharest, Bratiano expressed his dissatisfaction dis-satisfaction with the entente policy towards to-wards Rumania. Since that time ho is suspected of having had a hand in shaping shap-ing Rumania's course in Hungary. He was sharply attacked in Rumania for his refusal to remain in France and sign tho Austrian treaty, but ho challenged his opponents on this issue and made known his intention to carry the matter mat-ter into the pending parliamentary elections elec-tions in Rumania. The reasons for the reported fall of the Bratiano ministry are somewhat obscured, but it is known that an influential in-fluential clement has opposed tho course of the government in its dealings deal-ings wilh the entente in the Hungarian complication. It is pns-uble that pressure pres-sure forced tiie collapse of tho Bratiano regime. If '.hat be the case it is not unlikely that the Rumanian-Hungarian muddle, which has become an international interna-tional scandal, will shortly be cleaned up.
