Chancellor Hints That Increase in Civil
List May Be Expected.

London, March lin the house Of
commons Sir Michael Hicks Beach,
chancellor Of the exchequor, when
moving the appointment of select
committee to consider the new civil
list, conveyed the hint that an increase
in the civil list might be expected. He
said that while proposals were based
on the late Queen Victoria s civil list,
it must be remembered King Edward
had queen consort. and that he was
not only king Of the United Kingdom,
but head of a world wide power.
In previous reigns parliament had
been asked to pay the debts of the
sovereign, but no such application
was ever made by Queen Victoria.
The country might look for ward with
confidence tn King Edward, who for
many years had held an exceptional
position, involving exceptional expend-
itures. His income, although not
large, compared with that of some
private individuals, had sufficed him
to perform his duties in manner
which had won the gratitude of the
country. The proposals would be
framed in spirit of justice to the
crown and the people.

The deal between the Central of Geor-

came from Rome that the force that had
gone to that city to open up an Office
had been ordered back to this city, and
from this it was reasoned that there

city for a day or two and then walked
to their homes In adjoining counties. The
