In connection with M. Revoll's resignation of the Governorship of Algeria, the newspaper "Petite Dailphinois," owned by M. Baragnos, M, Revoil's uncle, alleged that M. Edgar Combes, the Premier's son, offered to obtain the authorisation of the Carthusians under the Religious Associations Act for a million francs.
This allegation was indignantly denied uncle, alleged that M. Edgar Combes.. voil, the latter of whom denied that he was associated therewith. M. Revoil's resignation was due to M. Combes' refusal to hear him on the subject, and declining to sign his promotion to the Legion of Honour on the occasion of President Loubet's forthcoming visit to North Africa.
