Two Elements of strength How Diff

Edinburgh, Nov. 13.-Joseph H. Choate,
United States ambassador to Great Brit
ain this evening delivered the inaugural
lecture at the Philosophical Institution Of
Edinburgh, taking as his theme The
Career and Character Of Abraham Lin
coin" Lord Rosebery, who presided, in
troduced Mr.. Choate as follows: ''Mr.
Choate is one of that choice succession Of
men whom the United States have sent
to this country. He has endeared him
self to US in a remarkable degree by his
brilliant and genial ualities. For his DIS
course he has selected one of the most
interesting subjects in the range of pos
slbility, the great man whom he person
ally knew in the flesh. Abraham In
coln.''
Many notable persons were in the audi
ence and Mr.. Choate was frequently ap-
pIauded. Lord Rosebery replying to a
vote Of thanks for presiding, said: Lin
coin was one Of the great figures Ct the
nineteenth century. To me 1t has also
seemed that he was the second founder
Of the great republic. His strength rest
ed on two rocks-unfinching principle and
illimitable common sense. One d.stin-
gushing feature that ASSOCIATED him
from all the other great men Of history
was his immense fund Of humor
Thanking Mr.. Choate on behalf Of the
audience, Lord Rosebery referred to HIN
as that consummate master OF elo-
Quenee," and he concluded with an inter
esting personal reference to 1.-THE vivid
impression and intense interest wnich the
American civil war produced il ny ease

Company Wants Indemnity: Also
Da uD1R Railway Ongress TO Act
Washington, Nov. 13.-The president
VIII submit to congress at the approach
ing session the claims for indemnifca-
ton and for other substantial recompense
of the British cable corporation. which
suffered as a result Of the American oc-
cupation Of the Philippines. The cor
poration claims damages for the inter
rupton of their cable business bv the
American forces. This claim was reduc-
ed to very low figure. but as disal-
lowed.
The Eastern Extension company. claims
that it has a franchise from the Soanish
government. obtained before the war
grazing st a monopoly of cable business
throughout the Philippines and that this
monopoly has been invaded by the action
of the United States government.
At the same time the Manila Daupan
railroal the only railroad in the Philip
pines, sets up a claim, first, for com
pensation for the use Of its property bv
the United States, and second. for the
continuances Of an annual subsidy Of
e45O0, suarante by the Spanish govern
The contention that the subsidy in the
last case and the monopoly Of the East
eln Etension company, having been le-
sally obtained, must be continued. was
recognized as a very important one and
was referred to the attorney general. His
decision was to the effect that these
claims were not based upon a contract
right But he also held that both the
cable and the railroad company had good,
equitable claims. 1t is possible that the
subsidy may be paid temporarily from
the revenues collected from the islands
themselves, but it is the intention to re-
fer the whole subject to congress. in or
Ger that it may do justice TO the COM
panies. There has been q good deal of
correspondence OF this subject and the
British authorities are earnestly support
ing the claims OF their citizens.
Another set Of claims which win De re-
ferred to congress are those arising from
the detention and isolation Of japanese
subjects in connection with the bubonic
plague last summer in San Francisco and
the claims Of japanese citizens for dam
ages sustained through the action Of the
Hawaiian authorities.

EIGHTEEN NEN SEATS
In Congress, Probably, Under
the Twelfth Census,
IF THE RATIO Is 100000
Kansas and Three Others Lose
a Member Each.
IF THE RATIO is 100000

Washington. Nov. 13.-Director Of the
Census Merriam was at the White House
today He called the attention Of the
president to the fact that the figures on
the population of the United States, the
total of which had been already an
nounced. are in such shape that they viii
be at the disposal Of congress when it
meets for any action it may desire to
take in the direction Of a re-apportion-
ment bill The re-apportionment follow
ing the count Of the twelfth census will
become operative by law in 1903. There
probably wiz be a considerable increase
both ia the ratio and the total number Of
representatives under the new apportion-
ment. Starting with a ratio Of one to
every 5000 Inhabitants, there were 60
representatives in the first congress. The
eleventh census, in 1880, gave a popula-
ton Of g., 622 80. The ratio was 173, 9jl
people to each representative and the
house numbered $40 members The ratio
under the new census probably viii reach
100000. with an increase of 1925, 464

counting for an additional member. as
has been the custom, this would make an
increase Of eighteen members in the next
house Re-apDoruonments on this basis
would cause only four states to lose rep
resentatives. They are Maine and viz
ginia in the east and Kansas and Ne
braska in the west These states would
lose a member each. Any ratio smaller
than 10000, which would save them their
full representation, would cause a con
siderable addition to the membership of
the house.
