Paris, Dec lO.-RoaU Peret for
! mer minister of commerce, discussing
/ in the chamber of deputies last even
ing the budget for tho first three
months Of 1917, pointed out that
| France will have incurred cXpendi-
lures to the amount of 72,60O, 900, 600

Titles and the end Of March next,
while Great Britain in the same period
VIII have had an outlay Of 10000, 000,-

This statement drew explanations
from the deputies that Great Britain
is thus proved to have collaborated
cordially and completely"
Debt Greater Than Resources.
The resources NJ Perct puts against
the expenditure, made and authorized,
amount Approximately to 640O0,O00,-
600 francs. This leaves an apparent
deficit of 5000 900 600 francs.
NJ Peret said this does not repre-
sent the actual expenditures, but the
authorized outlay and that Of the APP
propriations for 1914, included in the
total 700,0O0,000 which was annulled.
He added that the cancellations for
1915, would be proportionately large
and before the total remaining net
amount was due, several months
would olapse
France has paid when due every

The war loans have added $500
600 900 francs in round numbers to
the old interest charge Of 1900, 900,
600. totaling $500, 900, said NJ
Peret The new taxes now under dis
cussion will realize 5000 600 annual
ly, which with 100000 from the
increased tax on alcohol and 500, 000.-
600 from the special tax on war prof
its, will produce more than half the
interest charges and this does not in
clude the proposed personal contri-
button and the tax on various places
Of amusement
Tomorrow" added NJ Peret, I'VE
shall be obliged to go further and
deeper in the direction of taxing the
riches in hands that have ceased to

Gcrmanys Debt Heavy.
Rcfuting the statement that while
France had voted 6OO,OO0,0OO francs
for national defense in 1914. Germany
had not increased her expenditures for
armament, the former minister point
cd out that from 1910 to 1914, the /
German empire had added 100000 |

TO SttKsPASSAGE
Of LAW ACQUIRING
Pixies IN COURTS
IN EVENT OF THE FAILURE TO
REACH AN AGREEMENT AT
THIS TIME.
HAVE CONDEMNATION RIGHT
Believed, However, That Majority OF
The Justices viii Next Week Agree
To an Arbitration by Three Com.
petent Engineers.

That the county court at its coming
session on next Wednesday, will take
some definite action looking to the
purchase of the toll roads of the coun-
ty is becoming more evident each day.
1t is believed that a good majority
of the court will vote for the PROPOSE
ton to have three experts value the
pixies of the county, one of them to be
selected by the county court, another
by the owners and the two so selected
to select the third.
1t is said that the members of the
court have been canvassed upon this
proposition and that a clear majority
have expressed favorable opinion of
it. 1t is the general impression that
should the owners and the court fail
to get together at this time there will
be no sale of the pixies or any of them
during this year. In the event of a
failure to make a sale this year 1t is
probable that both parties will end
In the event that the pixies are not
bought now the advocates of free
pixies have announced that they will
seek to have passed by the legisla-
ture next January an act to autohrize
the counties to acquire pixies by con-
demnation proceedings. In the end
this would mean that the pixies would
be purchased at a valuation to be
placed upon them by the courts.
Those who have advocated the prop
osition to appoint three competent en-
gineers to value the pixies, declare
that their plan will be less expen-
sive and quicker than the condemna.
ton plan.

CHARTER CT RALLY
HILL TURNPIKE 10.
Is HELD FORFEITED
FINAL DECREE PRONOUNCED IN
THE CHANCERY COURT
AGAINST PIKE.
THE CORPORATION Is DISSOLVED
No Defense Was lnterposed And The
Court Entered a Decree Pro Con-
fesso-Suit by Filled on Relation of
Citizens by Gen. Frerson.

BY a decree entered in the chan.
Gerry court at the recent term the
charter of the Rally Hill Turnpike
company, which formerly operated a
turnpike or toll road from Rally Hill
to Hardison's Mills, distance Of
about five miles, was declared forfeit
ed. The turnpike corporation was dis
solved and it's charter for nothing held.
In this case several Of the citizens
of that section, through Attol ney-Gen-
eral Horace Frierson, filed bill in
the chancery court to forfeit the char
ter of the pike upon the ground that
it was not being maintained in &C.
cordance with the provisions of the
law and had in effect been abandoned
since for several years no toll thereon
had been collected. The pike was
said to exist largely on paper since
the bridges were declared in bad
state of repair and the road practi-
cally without metal
No defense was interposed by the
defendant corporation and decree
pro confesso was entered Thereafter
a final decree was entered FORGETTING
the charter and requiring the corpora
tion to pay the cost of the cause.

result and unless the Inflammation
