The fruitless negotiations between France
and Belgium, entered into several years
ago, are reclted, as are also the prelimina-
ries leading up to the making Of the sup
Elementary convention submitted for APP
proval to the chamber of representatives.
The prime minister says the compromise
made sanctions equally each OF the two
methods of liquidation that had been re-
spectively advocated. Belgium agrees to
remit one-half the balance In excess Of her
ecus offs francs each In the manner decided
by the French government as modified by
important concessions In regard TO the time
of payment. France agrees that the other
half shall not be repatriated otherwise than
In the manner proposed by Belglum-that
is to say, by the natural methods of trade
and exchange Belgium engages not TO
modify her monetary system during five
years from the dissolution Of the union, so
as not to impede the return Of Belgium
ecus to her territory France reserves the
right to introduce into her monetary legls-
lation all such notifications as may be
necessary, The government (Belgium)
does not close its eyes to the fact that this
compromise does not relieve the country
Of sacrifices from which IL had right to
escape.
But In default of the understanding that
result would not have been attained, save
by the adoption Of measures replete with
difficulties; and the abrupt withdrawal OF
Belgium from the Latin Union, which would
have teen the consequence thereof, would
have added new and serious elements OF dis
turhauce TO the difficulties Of the present
situation. If tho union is to be dissolved at
the expiration OF the new term fixed, Bel.

The Finding of the Court Martial APP
President.
The sentence imposed by the general
court-martial in the case Of Paymaster Cen
cral j. n. Smith, L. $. N, having been ap-
proved by the Secretary Of the Navy, aul
confirmed by the President, was promul-
gated yesterday at the Navy Department.
The charges upon which Paymlstcr Gen.
Cral Smith was arraigned and tried were
two, the first being "scandalOus conduct,
tending TO the destruction Of good morals"
and the second, "Culpublc iuellicieucy in
tie performance of duty
The court found him guilty on both
charges, and sentenced him ''tO he DIS
missed from the position Of chief of the
bureau Of provisions and clothing In the
Department Of the Navy; to be suspended
from rank and duty as a pay inspector on
furlough pay for three years, and to retain
his present number IN his grade during that
period"
The olfenses Of which Paymaster General
Smith was convicted under the first charge,
according to the findings of the court, con
sisted sin scandalizing and disgracing the
service by subordinating the interests OF the
governmental those of favored cOntraC-
tor, and by resOrtlng TO irregular and I'M
lawful methods to accomplish that end"
The specifications, as proved, under the
charge Of culpablc inctllcicncy in the per-
Torrance of duty on the part of Paymaster
General Smith, embrace, according to the
court, "the making of contracts for excess
sive quantities of supplies at times when
they were not needed, and the failure to en-
force legal contracts when supplies were
needed.
