Comparison between the cost OF
government in France today and dur
ing the last year of the empire are be-
ing made to the disadvantage Of the
republic. In 1869 the total cost
amounted to $685., 900, 900. In the year
ending March 81, 1901, the expendi-
lures amounted to $500, 900, 900. Mean
time the population has remained al
most stationary and the per capita
cost of government for the last fiscal
year amounted to s1s. The increase
in cost is due largely TO the French
policy of refunding debts and annual
deficits and to the cost Of maintain
ing unproductive colonies.

AdJutant General Corbin said that
the Board of Brevets, recently ap-
pointed to meet at the war depart
ment, would devote its attention
solely to the cases of officers and en-
listed men who especially distin-
guished themselves in the campaigns
In China and in the Philippines 1t
will have nothing to do with respect
to the case of officers who rendered
special service in the West Indian
campaign. The late class of cases
was disposed of by similar board
which concluded its sessions over q
year ago. While the fact that bre-
vet had been recommended to con
gress for Col. Roosevelt was published
at the time the examinations were
sent to the senate, it appears that
there were two separate recommends
tions, and the exact basis for the
boards action was not made public.
Therefore the adjutant general fur
nished these transcripts from the pro-
ceedings of the board:
