PARIS. September S.-Coincident
with new turmoil threatening Europe
from the direction Of Italy and the
Balkans comes the sudden announce
ment that grand maneuvers Of the
French army will begin on Tuesday.
The announcement also says that
the war program will actively con-
tinue until September 16, which is the
day after Serbia Is supposed to set
tie the Fiume question. according to
the plan recently formulated by Mus
solini.
The French government naturally
does not place official Significance
upon this greatest mobilization of
French troops SINCE the war. Like
wise the French war Office only re-

NEW BUDGET CUT
/. COMES TOMORROW
City Heads Must Slash $780,.
600 More From Esti-
mates, Is Found.

After a review Of the Districts esti-
mates for the next fiscal year, the Com
missioners yesterday afternoon discov-
cred that it was approximately 100000
In excess Of the s25.1oo,ooo total fixed
by the bureau of the budget. AS a re-
suit special board meeting has been
called for tomorrow morning, at which
the budget will be cut down to the linli-
tation stipulated by Gen. H. NJ. Lord.
The Commissioners thought that they
had completed the unpleasant task of
chopping the estimates and were max
Ing preparations to put them in form,
for submission to the budget bureau
when a careful checking up. on the
totals of the budgets of the various
municipal departments revealed the
100000 excess.
It was found. however, that about
100000 Of this amount was due to
new street lighting system which II
was believed had been previously
cut out There remains 100000 yet
to be cut from the budget, and the
Commissioners will decide at the spe-
cial board session what departments
will be forced to suffer an additional
cut in their budgets
The detailed estimates will be
transmitted to the budget bureau
sometime this week. along with a
communication vigorously protesting
against the more than $7.000.000 cut
which Gen Lord ordered ii the tenta-
tive estimates. The letter deplortng
the drastic reduction will point ont

velopment program, and will urge

cient to improve the schools, police

ROME, September 8.-Italy ac-
cepts the terms of the council of
ambassadors and agrees to evacuate
Corfu and adjacent islands when
Greece has satisfied all of Italy's de-
mands for reparations.
A semi official statement says the
government will consider its de-
mands satisfied as soon as Greece
carries out the demands of the
| council of ambassadors, which are
substantially the same as those
Italy forwarded to Greece.
Greece has sent an ultimatum to
Albania demanding the delivery
within five days of those responsible
for the murder of the Italian mis-
sion, according to Greek news
papers.
By the Associated Press.
PARIS, September S.-A feeling of
relief and optimism is prevailing to-
night in official and diplomatic circles
which look with satisfaction upon the
action of the interallied council of
ambassador in the Greco-Italian
crisis.
After notifying Greece of the terms
of the settlement that had been
agreed upon by it at yesterdays ses-
sion, the council met this afternoon
to draw up the instructions which
will be given to the inquiry commits
sion, to be appointed by it. in its in
yestigation Of the assassination Of the
Italians which brought about the
controversy. Thus, all the councils
machinery will be ready for prompt
action as soon as a reply is received
from Greece
All the danger has been taken out

recognized that considerable more
negotiations would be necessary be-
fore the matter is finally settled. But
the compliance Of Greece is confident

been received with great satisfaction
in French circles where it is regarded
as a triumph for premier Poincare,
who has insisted all along that there
was very great danger If the parties
not directly interested in the conflict
tried to settle 1t.
This method of settling the Janina
affair, which it is considered here
gives full satisfaction to Italian ma
tional honor, is expected to have
some effect on the Fiume controversy.
In diplomatic circles it is remarked
that Italy, having won a success in
keeping it's conflict with Greece out
of the league of nations. probably
will be inclined to go slowly in its
dispute with Jugo-Slavia.
The general comment here is that
the council of ambassadors has saved
the council of the league of nations
from a most embarrassing situation
and has prevented the league from
running into pitfall The French
press is almost unanimous IN the
opinion that Interference Of parties

OIL CHARGES DENIED.
Standard of Kentucky Replies tt
Wofford Company's Claims.

ATLANTA. December 22.-Denial
that it is dominated by any other oil
company, or that John D. Rockefeller,
or any of the original stockholders
Of the Standard Oil Company of New
Jersey, owns or controls any Of it's
stock was contained in a separate
answer filed today in federal district
court by the Standard Oil Company
of Kentucky to the complaint of anti
trust law violations recently lodged
against il and three other oil COM
panies by the Wofford Oil Company.
The answer also denies charges that
the Standard Oil Company of Ken
lucky entered a conspiracy with the
Gulf Refining Company, the Texas
Company and the Galena-Signal Oil
Company of Texas, to crush the Wof-
ford Company.
Admission is made that the COM
pany has seen it's way clear to make
contracts for the delivery Of gasoline
in Atlanta to wholesale dealers for
periods covering a year at the time
at a fixed price of cents less than
the tank wagon price.
The answer also asserts that the
price of IA cents per gallon, tank
wagon deliveries, is low and not
profitable and that the company
would welcome reasonable raise In
price.
