M) Of ficials here apparently see hopeful tendencies in the New xcar dispatch' cs from Great Britain regarding war debts, although they have received thus far no communication indicating the willingness of the British govern ment to approve specifically indulgent terms fur France, Wncn shown a story published in London, to the ef fect that Great Britain had assured the United States she would not stand in the way of a Franco-American set tlcment on terms more lenient than the Anglo-American agreement, hfgh officials of the jftalo department au thorized the statement! that no such assurance bad reached Washington cither officially or unofficially.

Star rett of Koseburg, a special investiga tor for the state laud board, filed a report yesterday in which he estimat ed that lossea to the state from bad loans of school funda in the pas: would aggregate $300,000. Governor fierce and State 1 reasurer Myers ere inclined to place credence in the re port, but state officials of different politieal faith io not. Trior-to the election ft was the contention of re publicans that tho stories of heavy losses from the school fund loiini were for political purposes to boo.it the candidacy of Mr. .Myers for statu treasurer. Starrett's report Is in the nature of a final eummsrizatiou. He claims the heaviest losses -will be in'Hsr. ney, Malheur, Wallows, Kl-imnth and Lake counties. Mention is also made of "stupendous lossea" resulting from loans of many years ago. An other cause of losses Is s)id to be the failure of irrigation -schemes to jlive up to expectations. He urges tint nn immediate effort be made-, to ascer tain whether a state's mortgage has priority over that of bond holders in irrigated disticts. Ho declares there is still opportunity to saVe the state many thousands of dollars.. Starrett made s number of renortB prior to tbe election, and inveirrgation of these by 'persons not politically friendly to Governor Pierce and State Treasurer Myers led to assertions that the reports were untrue. .Some of the investigations were msde by resi dents of counties where b&avy losses were claimed in the reports.
