PARIS, April 15.-The problem Of
separations and settlements still has
troublous times before it in connection
with the question of the distribution
of the indemnity to be paid by Ger
many. Smaller powers which suffered
under German invasion and devasta-
ton are still to be heard relative to
their shares of the reparation fund,
particularly Belgium, the claims of
which are entitled to first considera-
ton under various preeonference
pledges.
What Small Powers May Get.
The tentative scheme of distribution
which Great Britain and France have
advanced apportions between so and
80 per cent. probably IS. of the total
sum realized to the three big powers,
leaving perhaps Is per cent to satisfy
the demands of Belgium, Italy, Serbia,
Rumania, Russia and others. This is
a smaller proportion than the Sec
ondary powers expected and they are
almost sure to be dissatisfied with It,
1t has been suggested among the ex-
perts on the reparations commission
that Rumania. Serbia and other ma
tions have received reparatiOns
through the acquisition of territory,
but this reasoning will scarcely ap-
peal to Belgium.
A share Of the reparations fund will,
according to the present understand
ing, be assigned to Russia for damage
to invaded Russian territories, but
probably will be turned over to Great
Britain and France to apply on ad-
vances made to the old Russian gov
ernment during the war.
Although the contributions payable
by Germany are characterized as rep
arations, a very considerable part of
the first $4,000, 100000 will not be
available for reparation purposes.
since it has been assigned to the pay
ment of the expenses of the armies of
occupation anu such food supplies as
must be furnished Germany. Since
the occupation of the left bank of the
Rhine will continue during the entire
two years covered by this first pay
ment. the expenses. particularly of
the French occupational army. will
eat deeply into the $1,000. 100000.
Glasses Of Damage.
No announcement has as yet been
made regarding the precise definition
of the various "cetegories" of repara-
tions. In other words, there is no
definition of the classes of damages
for which Germany is required to pay.
1t can be stated, however. that the
five categories adopted comprise rep
aration for actual damage to life and
property; pensions for crippled and
the families of slain soldiers; COM
pensation for enforced labor exacted
of inhabitants of occupied regions, in
cluding work done by the deported
Belgians; remuneration for Illegally
exacted labor by prisoners of war and
payments for German requisitions in
occupied territories.
1t is understood that no offset has
been allowed Germany for the mainte-
nance of prisoners of war in Germany
during the war. the associated gov
ernments holding that the prisoners
were chiefly supported at their own
expense through food parcels by
which alone the prisoners were able
10 maintain existence during cap
tivity. and that the surplus has been
covered by work the prisoners per-
formed for Germany.

nished Peggy Hyland of the William
Fox forces, with one Of the best stor-
les she has picturized this year. The
production is entitled "Cowardice
Court" and is shown for the last time
today at the Murray theatre. 1t is a
most excellent summer entertainment,
with plenty Of good comedy and a
liberal admixture of thrills. The scenes
are largely out-of-doors, in the Adiron-

Miss Hyland plays the part of an
English girl who falls in love with a
rich young American with whom the
members Of her own family are at

most satisfactory of her career, and
the picture as a whole probably the

DOCTOR SAID He
HAD CONSUMPTION
Mr.. Swazey Explains What
Was Done in His Case by
Interstate Doctors.

That many people die of consunp-
ton that could have been saved from
death and been made we'll and happy
had their case been properly dag
nosed and treated in the beginning Is
now a we'll recognized fact. Some are
treated for consumption who only
have Indigestion while others who are
really in the first stage Of consump-
ton are treated for something else
until 1t is too late.
A good illustration of what can be
done in these cases by scientific ex-
animation to find the real underlying
cause Of the trouble, and then by skill
ed treatment to remove that cause is
furnished in the case Of Mr.. Swazey,
who says:
