The French Government has decided

unsavory. BY unusual foresight the
Government at the same time viii take
the first general census since 1900, as
efforts TO balance the budget have proved
difficult because of the lack or definite
knowledge how many taxpayers must
shoulder the steadily increasing burden.
The count IS to start March next, when

railroads and companies reconstructing
the devastated regions. AS soon as the
lists of foreigners are compiled they will
be- forwarded to other Governments to
be verified. The decision has caused
stir IN the underworld, as thousands adj
mitted to have sought shelter from the
law during the war will now face de-
portation, even II their own Governments
are willing TO relinquish their rights to
demand extraditlon.

FINANCIAL.

The removal of elements which had
disturbed the financial district led bank
ers to resume negotiations for new
financing on an old time scale. During
the period when speculative lines were
transferred en- bloc to stronger interests
the bankers had opportunity for nothing
else. but now plans are under way for
the flotation of more than 100000, 900
of new securities. The only large item
actually contaminated was the sale Of
s12.500,000 Of ~ per cent. sinking fund
twelve year gold debentures OF the Vir-
ginia-Carolina Chemical Company at a
basis to yield about per cent. During
the current week negotiations are ex-
pected to be closed and offerings made
OF $4,000. 900 to $35,000,000 Goodyear
Tire and Rubber first mortgage bonds.
Of $25.00.000 short term notes of the
Consolidated Gas Company. Of 100000
bonds of the Consolidated Electric Light
and Power Company. Of a $4,000, 900
loan to Sac Paulo. province of Brazil
of $25,000,0 900 Standard Oil Of California
securities and Of a s50.000.000 loan to
the Cuban Government. Other items to
bring the total in excess of S20O.00o.oo0
are under consideration.
The long awaited Southern Pacific
move to segregate its oil properties and
oil security holdings from it's railroad
properties proved specifically to carry
an assessment of SIS a share on South

however, showed that only $3.50 of this
payment went to provide working capt.

The total amount to be paid is S52.-

LONDON, Dec. 4.-The shadow of the
terror in Ireland has spread across
the Irish Sea- Whitehall is barricaded
and Parliament is closed to the public.
Precautions of an unprecedented kind
are being taken for the protection of
the Ministers. It is reported that bull
let-proof cars are provided for the
irish Secretary. The most complete
silence is observed by the press as to
the movements of the Prime Minis
ter.
The air Is thick with rumors of
plots, and through. the deepening fog
that envelops us the most trivial cir
cumstances assume vague and men
acing shape. Fifteen fires broke out
almost simultaneously one night in
Liverpool.
Everywhere there is a sense of
nervous expectation of the unknown
and evidence OF preparation for we
do not know what. This city sinks
deeper and deeper into state bord-
ering on panic. This realization is
bringing market prices down to an
unprecedented level and unemploy-
ment is throwing on to the streets
thousands of able bodied one-time SER
vice men, who parade the streets with
banners and collection boxes. en-
veloped by crowd of police on foot
and on horseback. OF all the incidents
none has created a more disquieting
effect than the barricades. An attempt
to allay this by an official explanation
that the precautions were less due to
ireland than to labor has only ag
gravated the feeling of concern. 1t
points the obvious moral that you
can't have a reign of violence in Ire
land without tanning the flames of
violence in England.
