LOSING MONEY ON RAILROAD.
Deficit OF Government Controlled Road

Paris. July IA good idea of the
great expense in the naturalization Of

France. is oEtainable from an official
report just distributed in the Chamber
of Deputies According to this esti-
mate the deficit on the Slate-owned
Western Railroad for the current year
is over $4,000, 600
Mr.. Henri Cheron the author of the
report, attributes this deficit to the
cost Of maintaining the lire, the in
crease I'm the number of employees and
the augmentation OF wages. The report
points cut. howeN er that the service
hitherto deplorable. has been incon
testably improved. Before the Western
Railroad was taken over by the state
the deficit amounted to about five
million dollars. Since the nationali2a
ton of the line in 1871, the French
government has expended in improve
ments about a. million dollars

Berlin, July l3. Emperor William
curb the too aggressive spirit of those
Germans who wanted To see the Ger
man flag raised over a part Of MoToc Z
co last year. This speech. which was
made at yacht regatta banquet at
Hamburg and was largely addressed
To. Hamburg merchants, contained a
pointed reference to the Agadir Incl
dent. The passage I'm question was as
follows:
AS YOU all know, gentlemen. the
flag must wave In honor, ana 1t must
not be recklessly spread to the breezes
or hoisted where we are not sure that
we can defend II. You win understand
why | have practiced self-restraint

see II floating, was governed by an
old Hanseatic principle craven on the
town hall at Lubbock The little flag
is easily bound To the stan but IL costs
much To haul II down again With
honor
The Emperor went on To say that
he could claim that, during his reign,
the honor of the German flag had
never been insuned from any quarter
then. addressing himself To the Ham
burg merchants present. he added. Il
pledge you, and stand FOR 1t. that my
flag will follow YOU wherever YOU lead
the way" This latter remark shows
that the Emperor does not believe ~
the old political maxim that trade fol-
lows the dag. lie is less aggressive.
