Paris April 15.-Assuming no fur
ther obstacles arise to block progress,
it may be announced that the peace
program, now entering upon its final
phase, will develop about as follows,
those in control seemingly reasonably
sure that nothing will occur to cause
pronounced deviation:
The next ten days will be devoted to
completing decisions on questions still
open, in respect to which it is fair to
ray. the council of four is ahead of
the several subcommittee charged
particularly with the study of the
subjects.
The German delegates TO be sum-
moned will probably reach Versailles

Il hotel there and an effort will be
made to hold them incommunicado
although when Tallyrand repre-
sented France at the Vienna congress
he was subjected to. no such restraint,
even as an enemy delegate.
In all probability the Teutonc dele
gates will he presented with the trea-
ty document at a secret session of the
council of four, at which details will

made clear.
Face-to-Facc Discussion.
This does not imply that there will
be pro and con discussion and bar
gaining, but the conference leaders be-
lieve that matters may be expedited if
the parties TO the treaty face each
other in a cross-table talk. This phase
of the plan is not definitely settled.
1T seems certain that announcement of
such intention would call forth sharp
dissent.
According to the proposed program
the better part of the week will be
given over to meetings with the Ger

the accompanying formalities, may
occupy two days.
Thirty-five Days Needed.
From this outline it is apparent that
roughly thirty-five days will elapse be-
fore the conclusion of peace, and that
may be accepted as a conservative es-
innate, although it may be shaded
somewhat at the present rate of prog
ress.
After the signing of peace the work
of the commissioners will go on for
periods varying from one month TO
many years in order to make de-
tailed application of the terms of the
treaty.
One important point on which no
action has yet been taken concerns
the question whether there will be a
plenary meeting of. the conference to
hear and approve the final treaty
form before its presentation to Ger
many.
Delegates Oppose Secrecy.
There is strong feeling among the
body of the delegates that there
should be such a meeting, and it is
likely their wishes will be gratified.
1t should not be thought from this
account that all is smooth sailing be-
fore the conference. On the contrary,
obstructionist tactics still continue.
One prominent Frenchman said to an
American official this evening" that he
gravely doubted if the French parlia-
ment would accept treaty that prom
ised so little in matters that meant
so much to France That is a matter,
however, which is external to the
process of building the treaty, with
whic.l the Big Four is concerned.

FIFTY PER CENT IS
INCREASE SINCE 1910
Industrial Expansion and
Building of Shipyard Civ
en- AS Main Sources of
Great Growth of City.

During the last ten years the pop
ulation of Pensacola has increased ap-
proximately so per cent. The census
report for 1910. made April Is of that
year, gave the population as 22,9S2. The
estimated population July 1. 1919, is
34,473 OF this number 1t is estimated
that 1887 are white.
The survey was made by the news
paper feature bureau and is based on
data secured from reports of Super
intendent A. S. Edwards of the board
of public education. REPORTS from the
municipal water department on 1910
and 1919 water services and consum-
Eers. and reports on Families.
Averaging of percentages of increase,
it. is certain, gives the approximate
population of the city at the present
time. The survey is based on first
hand information and is not to be COM
pared with figures given out for sew
eral years since 1910 which were based
only on the rate of increases in the
1900-1910 period and were widely in
accurate for the later years. In the
present survey credit is given for SOL
diers now in the service, practically
all of whom will soon be returned to
civilian life.
vey is the rapid growth of the cities
since 1910, much greater than during
the pre-1910 period. The industrial
expansion, so marked in nearly every
city, has attracted larger numbers than
ever before from rural communities
The shipyard alone brought approx
mately 5000 people to Pensacola, it is
estimated.
The July 1. 1919. population of the
city, according to the bureaus survey,
IS 34,473. compared with 22.9s2 in 1910.
The estimate is based on the following
information: :.

RUMANIA HAS
NO RIGHT TO
ROBHUNCARY
Allied and Associated Pow
ers Alone Have Authority
to Determine Rurna1ia's
Reparation Claim.

Paris, Aug. 16-Rumania will not
cording to the draft of the supreme
councils reply to the last note from
Bucharest which was completed at
today's meeting of the council The
Bucharest government is informed
that the fixing of the amount of rep
aration to be made by Hungary. as
well as it's distribution. is a matter
under control of the allied and assoc
ciated powers and that until final de-
cision is reached all war, railway and
osricultural material now In Hungary
and subject to distribution will be
under the common administration of
the allied powers. The text of the
reply follows:
The peace conference, without re-
verting to a certain number of points
which call for correction, on it's part
notes with satisfaction the Rumanian
declaration that it intends to work in
agreement with the policy which the
conference adopts in hungary. 1t in
terprets this declaration as an ind;ca-
tion that Rumania, as a state partici-
to conform to the decisions of the
conference communicated through the
military mission delegated to Buda-
Fest by the supreme council.
Directions sent three times by the
conference to the mission of allied
generals and communicated to BucLa-
rest have defined explicitly and in
detail the present policies of the allied
m re ri
ment of Hungarian troops, the main
tenance OF order with the smallest
possible number of foreign troops, the
stention from all interference In the
ing for that country a free expression
of the national will.
THE supreme council insists on the
fact that final recovery of war. rail-
way or agricultural materials or or
cattle. etc. cannot occur at present.
According to the principles of the
peace conference accepted by all the
allies and applied in particular in the
treaty of peace with Germany, it is
the right of the assembly of the allied
powers alone to fix upon the repara-
ton to be made by Hungary and de-
termine upon its distribution. Neither
the Rumanian army nor the Ruman-
ian government has the right itself
to fix Rumania's share, assets of all
kinds belonging to Hungary being a
pledge held by the allied powers In
common"
Delivery Of the Rumanian note, in
which the Bucharest government
claimed that the Rumanians in confis-
eating property in Hungary were
merely getting back their own prop
erty, and insisted that the armistice
OF November, 1918, mo longer exists"
was delayed, according to a statement
maoe py the Rumanian delegation to-
uay' because of it's great length and
the difficulty experienced in DECIDING
1t. The Rumanian delegates declared
that they wished it to be understood
that no amendments to the note were
added following its arrival here.

SUGAR SALEIS
FIRST BLOW AT
LIVING COSTS
Forty Barrels Distributed at
Four Fire Housessin Aft.
ernoon Though Sale Was
Not Announced.

The first blow was dealt to II. G. l..
in Pensacola yesterday when the mum
icipal sugar sale was opened. Forty
barrels Of sugar at ten cents a pound
were disposed of at the four city truck
houses. This was a clear saving of
two and a half cents a pound as COM
pared with the retail price. The dis
tribution viii be continued at o'clock
tomorrow morning.
At one o'clock yesterday afternoon
sugar was ready for purchasers and.
though the sale waS unhera1ded. the
news was quickly spread abroad and
hundreds of customers were served by
men OF the fire department and In
spector OF Weights Carroll.
At the central fire station, where
Chief Riera headed the force of emer-
gency clerks, the rush was greatest.
Thirty barrels were quickly emptied
and even then the waiting throngs
could not be satisfied.
Housewives filled the favious fire
houses early in the afternoon, as a
result there wol be abundant sugar in
many homes today where the COM
modify has been scarce for weeks.
The sale was first contemplated for
Monday, but when it became known
that the car could be quickly emptied
and the sugar unpacked. preparations
were made early yesterday to rush the
work of distribution. The steady
stream OF customers prevented many
from being served, but the announce
ment is made that there will be sugar
for everybody, put up and ready for
the buyer when calls are made to-
morrow.

LIVING COSTS
TO BE HIGHER
SAY FARMERS
Fear Strikes and Industrial
Unrest Will Cause Great
Decrease in Next Years
Crop Production.

Washington, Aug. 16.-Warning was
farmers organizations testifying be-
fore the house and senate agricultural
committees, that unless present dis
turbed conditions resulting from prof
iteering in goods and wages and
strikes were settled soon, the country
would face a far worse situation from
the high cost of living next year than
at present. Farmers, they said, were
preparing for next years crops and
under the present conditions they
couldn't estimate what the probable
market would be-. Fear was expressed
that there would be decreased pro-
duction both on this account and be-
cause of Wilson's statement in his
message vetoing the repeal of the
daylight saving law, placing Industrial
ahead of farm output.
Seizures of foodstuffs held in cold
storage continued today. They in
cluded 16.500,000 eggs at ST. Louis and

and England
Washington. Aug. 16.-More friction
between Great Britain and Mexico has
appeared to complicate the Mexican
situation. Great Britain's last Femain-
ing diplomatic representative in the
Mexican capital William Cummings.
in charge OF the archives of the lega-
tion there. has been ordered from the
Country by mandate of Carranza-
The action amounts to the British
representatives practical deportation.
Great Britain never has recognized the
carranza regime In a strict sense,
Cummings has no diplomatic standing,
although he has delivered communica-
tions from the British government
protesting against the mistreatment of
British subjects and interests.
While not specifically stated in the
dispatches from the Mexican capital
which have reached Washington. 1t is
understood that Carranza's action re-
suited from the statement recently
made in the house of commons by the
British under secretary of state that
Great Britain had not recognized the
Carranza government and would not
do so until there was some guarantee
that the Mexican government was able
and willing to protect the lives and
properly or British citizens.
Charge Lindsay. of the British en-
bassy. brought the matter to the at
tention of Secretary Lansing today 1t
Is understood that there is nothing to
be done except acquiesce in the decree
of expulsion as MIR. Cummings has no
official status in the diplomatic sense
and consequently cannot claim ex-
emption. II is believed in official
quarters. however that the incident is
certain to have a marked effect on
the policy which the British govern
ment win follow toward Mexico.
It is expected that in the absence
of any official representation in the
Mexican capital the British govern
ment will. for the present. at least.
have recourse to the good offices of
the United States or France to look
after the extensive British interests in
that country.
Great Britain has not had an Off
cial diplomatic representative in Mex
leo since Mr.. Hohler. who had been
acting as charge d'affaires was with
drawn soon after Carranza assumed
office as president. When Mr. Hohler
departed the affairs of the British le-
cation were left in the hands OF Mr..
Cummings He was not to act as min
istey in any sense. but was simply to
ere for the archives and other prop
critics.
Mr.. Cummings, however, had been
for many years a resident of Mexico.
and numbered Carranza, himself,
among his personal friends. Thus he
was able in a personal way to inter-
cede with the Mexican president to
secure protection for British citizens
.y0hen they were endangered by the
Evolutionary movement. In addition
re kept his own government informed
OF the developments in Mexico and.
acting solely as medium of com
rnunication without official authority
delivered protests against the mis-
treatment of British individuals and
corporations whenever these seemed
to be- necessary
