duce the necklace or the proceeds OF
the sale. This. she told Judge Cluzel
today he has failed to do.
The broker says he is holding the.
necklace as security for expenses
amounting to 10000 francs which he

FRENCH POPULATION
CONTINUES TO SHOW
ALARMING DECREASE

Paris, Nov 33S-A continued shrink
age in the population of France is
shown by the vital statistics of the re-
public for the year 1913, which have
just appeared.
Without counting the war losses. the
French nation numbers 3S9.555 less
than in 1917. These figures affect only
the "a departments of France which
were not in enemy occupation. They
are the excess of deaths over births.
The decline is attributed mainly to the
ravages of the influenza epidemic in
the latter half of 1918. from which it is
computed that about 100000 persons
died.
Compared with 1917. there was an
increase in marriages of 1864 but the
number of divorces also rose from
1912 to S12l.
