Brussels, March 31.—Reforms to
the Congo which were urged by King
Albert in his address to parliament
are being put into effect gradually
and the prediction is made that the
colony in Africa soon will ceasa to
be regarded as a burden to Belgium
or as a source of criticism from the
powers, as was the caBe under the
late King Leopold.
The large deficits recorded each
year since the Congo was incorporat-
ed into Belgium have made financial
help one of the first needs. The gov-
ernment plans to grant this by In-
dorsement of all of the past and fu-
ture debts of the Congo.
It is also proposed to grant th«
colony a greater administrative au-
tonomy.

reel necessities of each district. It
will also make possible the instltu-
stitution of a regular yearly budget
which does not now exist.
Another reform is the reorganiza-
tion of judicial power, modifying it
so as to give certain colonial agents
police power, such as exists in certain
British colonics. This will secure for
the white people a greater prestige
in dealing with the natives.
Bryan, Texas, March 81.—The case
of the State against Ed Deere, negro,
charged with killing R. P. McMinn,
was begun in the District Court this
morning. Seven jurors were secured
out of a venire of 75 and 50 others
are being summoned for 9 o'clock to-
morrow.
Deere is charged with killing
County Road Superintendent McMinn
with a mattock some months ago.
The work of electrifying the Bry-
an-College Interurban was begun to-
day. A force of hands was put to
work by the manager digging the
holes for the trolley poles. One car-
load of poles has already arrived and
other material will arrive as fast as
it can be gotten ready for shipment.
