cHoATE AT A BANQUET.

Ambassador Cheered to Echo While
He speaks at isdin burgh.
edinburgh, Nov. 11-Joseph II. Choate,
United States ambassador, who was
the chief guest at the annual banquet
of the Walter Scott Club last evening,
met with an enthusiastic reception.
Sir Herbert Maxwell, who presided,
made cordial reference to the friend
ship that seals England and America
In the course Of a speech proposing Q
toast 10 literature, Choate said: Truly
Your country and mine are connected
by bonds Of sympathy that were never
stronger and closer than they are a
this hour can assure you that Lor6

sponse beyond the Atlantic.
1T mas been said by a great poet that
Peace hath her victories not less re-
nowned than war. This ironclad
friendship which now prevails between
chese two Kindred nations is her latest
and greatest victory. 1t means peace
mine, but among all the great nations
on the earth, and it tends by advanc-

Hope to End War Soon.

Washington, Nov. u.-Aguinaldo and
his followers, with the treasure accu-
mulated by them, may elude the Amer
lean troops and find safe retreat in
the mountains, but, while the adminis-
tration is not confident of his capture,
the president believes, from the infor-
nation placed before him, that the
insurrection will now be speedily ended
The arrest of Aguinaldo is not consid-
cred essential to the restoration of
peace. 1t is believed that he will in
sure his own safety at any cost and
that when ne is fully deprived of or
ganized assistance he will await an OPP
portunity to escape to Hong Kong or
some other point in Asia. Confidence
is expressed at the war department
that the present movement of the
American forces will result, with the
return of the dry season, in the com
plete Generalization and disorganiza-
tion of the Filipino forces.
In administration circles it is not ex-
pected that congress will take hasty
action concerning Cuba, Porto Rico or
the Philippines. Until congress relieves
him the president will remain in SUI
preme control of affairs in the islands,
and he is proceeding under the convic-
ton that the welfare of the people will
be in his charge at least during the re-
mainder of his present term. 1t is ex-
pected that congress will be given an
opportunity early during the coming
session to make positive declaration
OF principle concerning the Philippines.
1t is considered desirable for it's moral
effect that congress should be placed on
record concerning the disposition of the
archipelago.
Commissioner DENLY and others who
have given the Philippines question
deep thought believe that the Insured
tion will retain strength and some or
ganization until congress has, by for
NAL action, convinced the insurgents
and their sympathizers that it will not
Interfere in their behalf. The prece-
dent of Hawaii and conversation with
leading members of both houses leads
the president to believe that congress
at it's next session will take no impor-
tant action aside from appointing COM
mittees to acquire information concern
ing the islands.

DON'T Like American Rul,

Havana, Nov. 11.-Proceedings at
meetings recently held in Santa Clara
for the discussion of the political future
indicate the existence of widespread
feeling of discomfort with the American
rule.
Civil Governor Gomez and other Off
cials are said to be the ringleaders. The

Senor Capote's report gives 1873 muni-,

ella -is the one recognized by other ma
tions and the fact that there is an in
surrection in that country does not
relieve other governments. from the
responsibilities attaching to interfer-
ence in its domestic affairs.
Minister Loomis has no right what
ever to interfere in the affairs of Vene-
zuela, and If American interests were
endangered the utmost he could do
would be to ask reasonable delay, in
order to afford the citizens of this
country time to take their movable
goods to place of safety.

count was resumed today in about half

Chicago, Nov. 11.-Judge Kohlsaat,
today in the federal court. rendered a
decision in the Chicago draining canal
case. The Illinois and Michigan canal
trustees brought suit in Will county to
restrain the drainage canal trustees
from turning the water of Lake Michi-
gan into the new canal on the ground
that it would destroy navigation in the
old canal. The drainage trustees car
ried the case to the federal court The
decision of Judge Kohlsaat on the mo-
ton by the old canal trustees to re-
mand to Will county, which Kohlsaat
denied, holding that a federal question
was involved, is expected to result in a
settlement of the differences and
opening of the new canal on Dec 1.

Eyes Fixed on Butler.

London, Nov. 11.--With the exception
of one short dispatch to the war office
from Gen. White, received at Cape
Town, London has been without official
news from Ladysmith all day. The sit
uation apparently has not changed.
The Boer bombardment continues in
|termittently. but is doing little harm.
The attention of the country is now
lriveted on the expected landing OF Gen.
Buffers army corps at Durham, whence
lit will be hurried up to relieve Gen.
White
Apparently Gen Butler intends great
ly to increase the Natal field force and
to attempt to push the Beers back by
direct attack. That he should have
formed this plan seems to indicate that
the position of the English at Lady
smith is far more serious than is gem
orally supposed.
For nearly a month the Boer com
mandos have been in possession of
northern Natal. Laing's Mex has been
fortified and the pass through Drakens-
burg. If these are to be forced by di-
rect attack the operation will entail a
great expenditure of life.
In other districts matters are also at
standstill, but at any moment news
oi a strong attack along the whole line
may be expected.

BRITISH CENSOR STILL ACTIVE.
Little News From Front Permitted
to Reacn the public


London, Nov. 1.-Complete silence
has again fallen upon affairs in South
Africa. The British public must per-
force be content with the brief, stereo-
TYPED report which the censor allows to
filter through from Cape Town. That
this condition of things is no longer due
to pressure of work or defective cables
has been amply proven. The Eastern
Telegraph Company reckons that the
lreal delay in transmission is about two
days. 1t is evident, therefore, that the
censorship is responsible for the other
| two days of delay, which seems to be-
fall all the dispatches.
Moreover. the Daily Telegraph an
nounces that its appropriated" dis
lpatch from Ladysmith, dated Monday
which the war Office published on Tues
iday, was not delivered in Fleet street
until Friday morning. 1t is believed the
war Office received further dispatches
last evening, but nothing was pub
llished.

1 Cambridge. speaking of the war, said
