during the coming cold months. Those Serbs who have escaped, and who are here at Corfu and at various Balkan points, can send little or no relief, for they lost everything and have nothing to give.
 Tt is for this reason" said the minister, that the funds advanced by the United States government are truly proyidential, and are saving Serbian lives, thousands of them."
 The advance made by the United States was 15,OO0,OOO francs, or S9,- 100000 This was designed to cover aperiod of three months; and at this rate the advance for year would be $12,OOO,000 or 60,O0O,000 francs. The distribution of these funds is under the direction of Dr. Nintchitch, with the American Charge d'Affairs, H. Perciyal Dodge. in frequent consuita- tion with him, and exercising Ameri- can supervision.
 In making the expenditures, the first s3,000,00o has been divided in three parts of s1,oO0O00 each. The first million is being employed for the Serbian soldiers yhala~ as prison CTS in Germany, Austria and Bulgaria and for the civilian Serbs interned in these countries. Together, these Serb prisoners and interned aggregat- ed about 100000. These people get a bare existence in the prison camps where they are held, and anything beyond this bare existence comes from the American funds
 The second s1,OO0OoO is used for pensions and relief to the wounded Serbian soldiers no longer able to earn living, and for the relief of the Serbian peasantry remaining in Serbia.
 The third $1.OoO,OOo will be used mainly for reconstruction work in  Serbia, in replacing bridges, roads. etc, which have been destroyed so that Serbia, once restored to it's peo- pie, may be brought back, in part at least, to it's former condition.

BULGAR CRUELTY
 AGAINST THE STREAMS
(By Associated Press)

(By Associated Press)
 CORFU, Island of Corfu, Dec. g. 'The funds advanced to Serbia by the United States government are saving the lives of the Serbian people" said the Serbian minister of public works, Dr. Montchilo Nintchitch, who ha! been charged with the expenditure of the advances from the American gov ernment.
 Dr. Nintchitch had been telling of the various uses the American money was put to, for the 136,000 Serbian prisoners in Germany and for intern ed civilians, refugees, and pensions. But now he turned to a story of the cruelty and butchery which the Bull gars are still prosecuting against the Serbs
 Serbia has suffered more than any any other country" said Dr. Mint chitch, flor not even the ruin of Bel gium and the devastated regions of France can compare with what Ser bia has suffered. The people of Bel. gium and France had seaports to gt to and escape in ships, and they had railways. But the Serbian people had no ports for escape, and when the Monastir railway line was cut by the Bulgars they had no railway. So they were literally caught in a trap, with no means of egress, and except for those who made the exodus across the mountains, the whole peasant population has come under the con- trol of the Bulgar invaders. More over Belgium and France have been under the eyes of England and Amer ica, while Serbia is cut off from the world, with no knowledge of what goes on there, and no mail from there for two years.
 "The Serbian peasants have been stripped of everything. All their horses, cattle and live stock has been taken, and their farm machinery has been destroyed. Men, women and children have been killed in the most revolting manner, and on the most flimsy pretext. In this the Bulgars go far beyond the Austrians, for the Austrians have a trial and formal condemnation of death. But the Bul gars have no trial or condemnation The order to kill is given, and the soldiers are practically free to takt life on their own judgment withou any order"
 "As documentary evidence of this killing, the Serbian ministry of for eign affairs have had photographs copies of which were given to the correspondent showing six Serb peas ants strung up side by side iron rough stakes driven in the ground with a cross-piece above for tht moose, while groups of soldiers ani officers are gathered about, laughing over the contortions of the victims.

The White Pass locomotive, in which enginer w. c. Mckenzie and his son Bert were killed when it was driven off the track near the summit on the White Pass road, has been sal vaged. It was a most difficult piece Of work, as the locomotive had to be pulled up. distance of 500 feet over 30 per cent grade. A skidway was built for the purpose and two powerful locomotives furnished the motive power.
The Cordova daily times., 1917-12-06

"The Bulgar policy is to consider Serbia and the Serbian people as an- nilihated," Dr. Nintchitch went on. 'To this end they hold that the Serbs no longer exist, and every Serb must become Bulgar, take a Bulgar name and become a Bulgar citizen.
 "The drafting of Serb peasants as soldiers in the Bulgar ranks is ont of the worst forms of cruelty being practiced. This is systematically car ried out, with notices posted in al public places telling all men over l years of age to report for military duty. This placing of a whole popu- lation in the military service of the enemy is an unheard of cruelty, and contrary to every rule of information al dealing in time of war. But it is justified by the Bulgars on the theory that Serbia does not exist and that the Serbs are Bulgars.
 "A member of the Serbian chamber of deputies was here recently, and gave me a narrowing report of his family still in Serbia One Of the boys had already been killed The second boy has been ordered to be- come a Bulgar soldier. The mother protested, whereupon she was sent to Nish and put in prison, where she went crazy. Meantime the boy or dered to become a Bulgar soldier had escaped to the mountains and aaprice has been placed on his head This experience in the family of the Serb ian deputy is merely typical of the thousands we are hearing of from all quarters daily.
 ''We have received full details of the revolt which the Serbian peas anst remaining in the country direct ed against this Bulgar oppression, 7" the minister continued. This has come in letter from well-knoWn teacher The revolt was really a re- volt. of women-of the Serbian moth CTS, wives and sisters-in a frantic protest against having their sons, husbands and brothers forced into the Bulgar ranks to fire on Serbian sol diers. This women's movement be- came so threatening that a German division at Nish was sent to quell it. When this failed, two Bulgar divisions were sent against the increasing ranks of the revolt.
 tunity to perpetrate new infamy. Sending their troops against the wo- men, they took as prisoners a large number of the wives, mothers and sisters who had protested against their men taken as Bulgar soldiers. Then these wives and mothers were formed in ranks; placed ahead of the Bulgar divisions, and in this battle order with the Serbian women in front as screen for the Bulgar troops-these divisions pushed against the main body of the revolting peas. ants. It was only by such methods i of using women as screens, and by resort to the most extreme cruelty , that the revolt was finally put down
 In one case, the writer of the let , ter gives details of seeing a Serbian peasant hung up by the tongue" The minister spoke of the increas ing needs of these Serbian peasants

LYON INTERPRE7S
STOCK DECISION
Thinks Foreign Corporations
Not Affected,

Corporations organized outside OF
Oklahoma which carry on no business in
Oklahoma other than the soliciting OF
subscriptions for stock may sell stock
for less than par value, in the opinion
OF ]. L. Lyon, SECRETARY OF state.
Mr.. Lyon gave the opinion In regard
to company which sought to sell stock
in a gold mine company at less than
par, Il was set forth that this company
is incorporated in Arizona that il does
not intend to establish an office il
Oklahoma that il does not intend to
issue any checks in this state, TO carry
OH correspondence from any office in
this state nor to issue any stock save
through the office in Arizona.
Decision Expected.
Attorney General S. p Freezing when
asked to give an opinion as to the legal
ity of this company soliciting stock
subscriptions in Oklahoma refused to
do so declaring that the supreme court
in the recent Rainey decision had passed
on one phase of the sale OF stocks and
pobably would. In time, pass on other
phases Mr., Lyon, however. complied
with the request Of the company in CIV
ing an opinion, as follows;
Stock Not Affected.
"The opinion as hended down by the
supreme court covers. only the proposi-
ton as to the issuing Of stock and as
this state has no authority to control
any oct or acts of the state Of Arizona
we have no authority to say that the
state of Arizona cannot permit her citi-
rens to issue stock for less than par
II our constitution provided that nc
stock could be sold in this state for less
than par, this would present different
phase upon the subject.
"For the above reasons, | am givins
you my personal opinion, that this state
