The Ability Of Francs to Pay Her
Debts.

NJ. Theirs made a statement on the
discussion Of the loan bill In the Ma
tional Assembly of France last Tues
day, which shows that with all the
overwhelming disasters the nation
has suffered it is able to meet its Obli-
cations. The financial situation, he
said, was difficult but not disastrous.
The public debt of France just before
the late war was about thirteen thou
sand millions of francs, or two thou-
sand six hundred millions OF dollars.
The war indemnity to Prussia
amounts to a thousand millions of
dollars. This German war cost
France six hundred millions of dol
lars. The deficit of the fiscal year
1901 was thFes hundred and tWen-
ty-six millions of dollars. Then
comes the expenses incurred in sup
pressing the insurrectiOn in Paris,
amounting to over eighty-flve mill
liens of dollars. The total of the
liabilities OF France can be hardly
less than between four thousand mil
lions and four thousand five hundred
millions of dollars, which is a larger
debt than that of England and double
the interest bearing debt of the United
States. This is an enormous weight
to bear. But French finances are
wonderfully elastic, and the resources
of the nation are extraordinary. Al
ready, as M. Theirs announces, the
Bank of France has advanced to the
government two hgndred and sixty
five millions of dollars to meet the de-
ficiency OF the fiscal year, 1901.
Capitalists everywhere in Europe are
ready to aid the government with
money, and it is said that even in
Germany large offers are made for a
Frehch loan. The truth is France is
the richest country in Europe in re-
though it may not have as
much capitalized wealth as England;
and this fact is well known. Forty
millions of such an Industrious, eco
n0mical ,ingenius, artistic and invent
i've people, having a rich soil and nu.
merous products that cannot be found
and that the world must
nave, are equal to almost any tnan-
cial pressure. II France should re-
main at peace few years she viii
overcome her financial difficulties,
great as they are, and be on the high |
road to prosperity again. Nor does
this depend upon the nature of the
though we think a re-
public permanently established would |
40 most to bring out the energies of |
Inc people. Those who have thought |
Ihat this great nation has been hope !
lessly crushed are mistaken, and |
none know this better than the capi- |
tallgt5 and hnanciers of Europe.-N |

The RlOtOus Miners-NO BIoodshed-The
Republican Convention.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 25.-A con-
sultatlon of Governor Haight with the
riotous miners Of Amador county, last
night, resulted in no arrangement OF
the difficulties, the miners being de-
fiant and determined to prevent any
work being done. At midnight the
Governor telegraphed to Sacramento
for troops to march for Amandor this
evening. 1t is believed, however,
that the strikers will disperse when
the troops arrive, and that there will
be no blOodshed.
Major Selby secured the entire San
Francisco delegation of primaries yes
teFday, The contest for the nomina-
ton OF Governor is likely to be very
close between Selby and Newton

of local dealers; but commission men are

are dated ahead ~ an induOement to se-
cure the sale of the goods in advance Of

hence stocks generally win be sold up,
