M. Pouy Quer- tier will immediately pay the amount, thereby saving 20, ,000, ,0O0 francs.

An ex-Prefect of the Department of Eure, has been tried for misappropri- ating 100000 francs contributed ny the Lancashire operatives for the relief of France after the war.

The Assembly has rejected bill the object of which was to commit the Chamber to the movement for the pay ment of the war indemnity by voluntary subscriptions.
