RuMoRs WILL NOT DOWN.
Story Reiterated that Morean's Health
is Failing.

LONDON, May 15.-Despite the
emphatic denals that Morgan's condi-
tion is not serious, the contrary is the
case. and this accounts for the fact
that there is practically no trading on
local stock exchanges.
London correspondents of New York
brokerage houses are being deluged
with cablegrams OF inquiry from the
United States asking that accurate in
formation concerning the condition OF
the prince of trusts be wired back
without delay.
To the majority of these the an
swer was made that to all appearan-
ces Morgan was rapidly failing, but
his son states that he is enjoying the
best of health.
Morgan left for Paris this morning,
and as he was assisted from the hotel
to the automobile which took him to
Charing Cross station, it seemed that
he was very weak and haggard.
While he continues in this state
financiers look for no heavy trading
on change, and expect a heavy fall in

CRISIS THREATENS FRANCE.
Enormous Deficit Made Certain by
Shrinkage of Revenues.

PARIS. May 15.-The budget hill
year 1902. which has just been dis
tributed to the French sfenators and
deputies. causes grave apprehensiors
in conservative financial circles. Teh
estimated expenses for 1902 are $780,
100000. this being an increase in ex-
penditures over the present yea" of
more than fifteen million dollars.
This budget is so figured out as to bal
ance within 100000.
To make good the deficit addition
al taxation is proposed by the minis
ter of finance including among other
items, tax of 80 cents or refined
petroleum. But what causes pro-
found uneasiTess and mistrust is The
statement, issued yesterday. by the
minister of finance. of the receipts for
the four months Just ended. From
this ii appears that the receipts fell
$3.000.000 short of and are S3.s00. .0On
( pr corresponding months of tho year
1900. This unexpected shrinkage in
receipts not only promises to knock
the budget estimates OF 1902 into
coked hat, because the 1902 budget is
based upon an assumed large and
steady increase of revenue, while the
actual experience of the last four
months shows that exactly the reverse
is taking place, and this to a most
alarming degree.
The desperate budget outlook and
inevitable increase of taxation causes
French capital to seek investment
abroad, and this is one of the factors
calculated upon for the success of the
new Russian loan of 800 900. .00o bear
ing per cent interest. which on May
25 is to be put on the Paris market
by the ROthschilds. acting in concert
with the Banque de Paris. the Credit
Lyonnais and other financial establish
ments in France.
