WASHINGTON, d. C., Nov. il.-There
promises to be prolonged debate in the
house early In the coming session, on the
question of rcapportionment. Should the
custom of the past years be followed,

growth in population of the country as
shown by the census Just completed.

body of seaman. All four had life
belts around them. At short intervals
along the beach eleven more bodies were
found. making fifteen discovered up to
