THE HOPKINS BILL.
Majority Report on apportonment Calls
for But 357 Members.

Washington. Dec. 0-Representati> e
HOPKINS. chairman of the committee
on census today. filed in the House the
majority report on the re-apporuon-
ment bill reported by his committee
fixing the membership of the House
for the next decade at 35I.
Representative Burleigh of Maine.
filed minority report signed by six
members in favor of a House to be
composed of $50 members and Mr.
crumpacker of Indiana who signed the
Rurleigh report. also submitted an IN
dependent report in favor of the re-
ducing representation in the Southern
states to the extent of the aprldse-
ment of the suffrage. His report
favors a House to be composed OF 3'4
members.
Mr.. Hopkins, in the majority report,
cites many instances to show that the
loss of seats by states under reappor-
tionment bill was not uncommon.
Massachusetts, for instance, which I'M
til the third census had 20 members
was reduced to 10 under the siXtn'
seventh and eight. and Virginia. when
had % in the third had but nine under
the ninth. The report says the COM
mittee followed the plan adopted uiiuer
the sixth census and has followed it
continuously since. 1t has the sane
ton and approval of 60 years of ma
tional existence.
The plan is to divide the constitu-
tional population by 351. the proposed
membership. The quotient, 2O,SS6. is a
ratio of representatives to population
This ratio applied to the population of
each state will yield in the aggregate
a number somewhat less than 35i, the
number determined upon a House. The
difference is made up by assigning to
the states having the largest major
ity farctions additional representatives
until a sufficient number have been as
signed to bring the total up to 357. A
membership of more than 351. the re-
port says. would make the House un-
wieldly.

FOR SElF-GOvERNMENT.
Philippine Commission Approves Move Of the
Autonomy Party.

Manila Dec 20.-The leaders of the pro-
jected autonomy party have again visited
the Philippine commission and the plat
and in an informal way. The commits
minor features. Personally they approve
direction of the ultimate measure of self
government which the commission has al
ready been instructed to endeavor TO
bring about.
The plan Of the party is to form United
for ultimate statehood. The platform de
clares in favor of a Senate and a House
of Representatives elected from the dis
tricts of the archipelago according to
population. In preparing a bill of rights
the United States constitution is utilized
with the exception of the feature of trial
by jury.
According to the plan the governor gen
eral appointed by the President would
have power of veto except in cases of a
two-thirds vote of the Legislature. The
Legislature would choose five delegates to
the United States Congress.
The platform opposes the sale of the
Philippines without the consent of the
Legislature. 1t contains little regarding
judiciary or local affairs In the main it
repeats the features of the United States
constitution.

of the 4th United States Cavalry. assisted

Congress in this matter" Mr.. Crum-
packer says. must take cOgniZance of
current history and of facts disclosed
by official records. There is not a MEM
Der of either house of Congress who
does not know to a moral certainty
that by direct operation Of law the
states of Louisiana, Mississippi, North
Carolina and South Carolina have dis
franchised sufficient number of citi
Zens to deprive each of them of several
representatives they would otherwise
be entitled to. to say nothing of the
largely increased suppression of votes
caused by unfair partisan administra-
ton of the laws. The question is will
Congress make an apportionment Of
representatives according to the plain
requirements of the constitution or will
it ignore those requirements and act
according to it's arbitrary will?"
Mr.. Crumpacker says in conclusions:
1.-The measure l propose carries no re-
sentiment toward any state North or
South. 1t is not designed for punish
ment but it simply aims to place rep
resentation in the House upon its con-
Stitutional basis and no state can just
ly complain if it be accorded its fun
rights. No compromise can be made
with wrong"

THE OLD HARTFORD
To Be Sent Down Into Vene-
zuelan Waters
To Back Minister LOOMS in the As
phaIt Concessions Case.
Not Proposed 10 Allow Venezuela TO Curtail
Americans Rights.

Washington, Dec. 20.-UpOn repre-
sensations from interested parties the
state department has requested the
navy department to have an American
war vessel remain for n time in Vene-
Zuelan water to give support to any
representations that United States
Minister LoOmis may have to make to
the Venezuelan government in respect
to the conflicting asphalt concessions
in that country.
The vessel selected for this purpose
is the historic old Hartford. which.
under command Of Captain Hawley,
has been cruising in the West Indies
and in the Caribbean sea with a train
ing crew aboard. She is now at La
Guayra.
When Mr. Loomis was in Washing
ton last fall, he conferred at length
with the state department officials re-
speeding some of the American con-
sions, notably these asphalt conces-
sions, ana what Is known as the Fair
bault concession, which were threat
ened with cxtinguishment on various
scores by the Venezuelan government.
The matter was not difficult of treat
tween rival concessionaries the prob
lem was much complicated.
Mr.. LOOMS went back to Caracas
with the general instruction from the
department of state to exert all proper
pressure to secure American rights In
that section. but the complainants
were first for their part to exhaust the
regular judicial methods. If they had
grievances which could be brought be
fore the Venezuelan courts for hear
ing. this course should toe taken.
The United States government would
not interfere except in cases where
there was a palpable denial Of justice
To an American claimant Mr.. Loomis
was 10 do all he could. on the other
hand. to see that concessions We're no.
cancelled by decree or otherwise. pend

Therefore the placing of i warship
to his support is believed to be with
the purpose of terminating some of the
many vexatious delays which are aften
experienced in the tribunals of South
American countries

CASTING THE KEEL.
Lead Tor the New Defenders Keel Will Prob
ably Be Run. Saturday.

Bristol. r. l.. Dec. 20.-W. Butler
Duncan. who has been at the Here
shoff's works all day left, tonight. for
New York. Asked when the lead keel
for the new cup defender would be
poured. now that the lead has arrived
he said it would probably be started
very early, Saturday morning. which
would give the keel a chance to cool
until after Christmas. The lead, about
100 tons, arrived this afternoon. COM
ing from New York by rail to Fall
River. where ii was tranferred to a
steamer and brought down the bay in
order to facilitate delivery.
Mr.. Duncan did not say whether this
was the lead that had been ordered
from the West. which the Herreshoffs
had been expecting for some time, but
stated that it had come from New York
and had arrived on scheduled time.
1t is quite the general impression
that the entire quantity of lead that
goes into the keel is to be melted. but
such it not the fact. as fully third Of
the pigs will be set in bulk. and then
the remainder will be melted and
poured over them. Should the work Of
moulding be commenced, Saturday at
. A. NJ. it will be long job and il will
probably be dark before the work is
completed.
A report has been published that the
planking of the lead keel would run
up and down instead of lengthwise, but
on the contrary, the mould is built like
that used for the Columbia, with the
planking running lengthwise. the whole
mould being shaped like n skiff or an
ordinary boat. Everything is now in
readiness for the running of the metal

ON PROBATION.
Judge Boni Releases Marion
Rogan Amid Applause.
She Threw vitrioI in DR.. TayIoI's
Face, After Being Ruined,
Ia Order that His Boosted Beauty MIGHT Not
Betray Others.

Boston, Dee. 20.-Marion Rogan, the
young woman, who in spirit of venge-
ancc flung vitriol into the face of Dr.
Frank l.. Taylor. well-known young
dentist of this city, was placed upon
probation by Judge Bond in the super
ior criminal court, this afternoon
When the spectators, men and wo-
men, heard the outcome, they attempt
ed to do something quite unusual in
court proceedlngs-they started to APP
piaud in open court the white haired
justice for his findings, but the vigilant
court officers promptly quelled the
threatening outburst of feeling. 1t was
an unusual situation, a situation Of
profound impressiveneSS. The DISPOSE
ton of this case excited greater local
interest than any that has come up for
years.
The young woman appeared in court,
Tuesday, with her babe in her arms
and told her story, alleging betrayal
by DR.. Taylor, who gave another name
and claimed to be single although he
was married and had a family in the
Back Bay, and refusal of aid by him
when she found herself in a delicate
state. DR.. Taylor, she said, shook her
off, boastng that his personal attrac-
tons We're irresistible among women.
Then the girl conceived the idea of
spelling his good looks that he might
not mislead another woman and on
June 49, she met DR.. Taylor at the pub
lie library and threw the acid in his
face. DR.. Taylor lost one eye entirely
and probably will be blind for life

POLO NOTES.

meeting of the Maine Polo League
was held in Bath, Wednesday. to re-
arrange the schedule for Christmas week.
This was made necessary. as some of the
teams wished 10 transfer games on
Christmas day, and ii was deemed best
to hold the meeting rather than to en-
deavor to take the necessary vote by
mail, the time available being short.
AS a result of the meeting the game
scheduled for Bangor on Christmas after
noon between Gardiner and Bangor will
be played in Gardiner. The game will be
called sufficiently early in Gardiner to
permit the two teams to take the east
bound train from Gardiner that arrives in
Bangor at $50 o'clock. in ample season for
the evening game. 1t was further decid-
ed to give Bangor game at home on
Christmas eve and Portland will be the
attraction.
