Cincinnati to entrain at once for the | Pomeroy coal felds, and also ordered one treop at’ Cleveland and one at Columbus to mobilize in their armories. The governor explained that the additional troop movement ‘was merely a precautionary one, no w disturbances being reported from any district. Stationing of troops in the Pomery district brings military protection into three districts, troops already belng stationed at Cadiz in the east- ern fleld and at Lancaster in the Hocking fleld. The four troops ordered under arms include a total of 240 men and horses. Half of these will be at Pomeroy. Gov. Davis said the troops are avail- able for emergeacy in different sec- tions of the state where conditions might demand their presence, and further mobilizations might be deemed necessary. —— The first woman to be permitted to make application for a position as carrier In the American diplomatic service is Miss Lucille Acherson of Columbus, Ohio.. who has taken the same examinations that men take when they ire to enter upon diplomatic career.

Parmentier, director of finance of thi French treasury and special finan. cial representatives of France, to. day and thereby were started the first formal, negotiations leading to the funding of the allied war debt to America. The commission. with all members present excepting Representative Burton, republican, Qhio, who is out of the city, held a short preliminary session, before which M. Parmentler accompanied by Charles R. Le Nevue of the French treasury nd Jean | Boyer. financial attache of the French tembassy, were received. M. Parmen- tier declined to discuss the pro- spective negotlations, maintaining that anything to be sald should come from Secretary Mellon, who Is chair- man of the commission. Several sessions between M. Par- menticr and the commission will be necessary, it was believed at Treasury, before the French repre sentative will be able to submit to his government for approval tentative iarrangements for tranaferring the d. mand notes of France held by this country into long-time_obligations. Under the authority of Congresa cre- t jrities of the funded foreign obliga- tions are limited to twenty-five years and the interest rates to not less than 41 per cent, but there havé been in- consideration might be given a lower rate. although special permission from Congress would be required to make a lesser charge possible. Arrangements worked out with France, according to the view ‘at the Treasury, probably will form the model for the funding plans adopted with the other debtor nations, with the exception of Great Britain, which, it has been reported, is preparing to begin the payment of interest on its $5,000,000,000 Gebt to this country-in Qctober. ~Negotiations with financial representatives of Great Britain are FOUR PENNSYLVANIA .
