AS OXFORD SEES 1T.
Views of University OficiaIs on the
Rhodes Scholarship Plan.

LONDON, April THE Daily Mail this
morning gives the opinions of some distin-
guished Oxford dons concerning the
Rhodes scholarships. DR.. MoberIy, canon
of Christ Church College. spoke in elo-
ouent praise of the plan. 1t would, he said
bring picked men of the best type Of
Americans, rather than the wealthy Amer
leans who had hitherto come TO Oxford
mainly for social advantages.
Mr.. Skene. bursar of Christ Church Col
lege, said if the yearly allowance of $500
merely for the university semester it
would suffice to make the scholastic life
comfortable. but If it were intended TO in
clude also vacation expenses the balance
left for the university would render il in
advisable that the beneficiary of the schoI-
arship come 10 Christ Church.
DR. Magrath. the popular provost of
Queens College, was emphatic i'm his pre-
dictions OF future good arising for Oxford
from the Rhodes scholarships He said he
was particularly struck with the wisdom of
Mr.. Rhodes in arranging that the gradual
operation of the plan spread over three

coined the idea most heartily.
The dean OF New College said he consid-
cred $500 ample; even if the student had to
maintain himself the year round; but he
said that Cecil Rhodes had fallen into tbo
same error as most educational benefac-
tors in forgetting that a university needed
an endowment quite as much as the schol-
ars.

approval OF Mr.. Rhodess plan.

he thought the plan would bring oxford

LAPORTE, Ind, April AT 1 o'clock
this CMOnday) morning Chesterton made an
appeal to this city for help, and a special
train carrying part of the fire department
is now on its way TO the stricken town.
Chesterton is twenty-five miles west of this
city the line of the Lake Shore Rail-
road. 1t has a population of about 15O0.
Eight business houses are in flames, and
the high wind is carrying the fire 10 all
parts Of the town. The place has no sys-
tenn of water works. but a steamer has
been sent TO the town from Michigan City
and water is being pumped from Coffee
creek. Late advices here confirm the report
received at midnight that there Is little hope
for the business part of the town, and the
residence portion is also believed TO be
doomed. Every man, woman and child in
the town engaged IN fighting the flames.
The origin of the fire is not known here,
and no estimate of the loss can be made
at this hour
The reflection from the fire is plainly
visible i'm this city, the sky being lighted
continuously, with occasional flashes OF
brilliance.
. oclock-At this hour the Chesterton
fire is said 10 be under control with large
additional destruction of property. Moth
ing is known of the losses.

Kaiser and President Said to Have
Had Previous IntimatiOn of the
Bequests-Dr. Thwing's Comment.

BERLIN, April 6.-"This bequest shows
the wide reach of Cecil Rhodes's mind and
his vision OF the future" said Emperor
William 10 DR.. Won Lucanus. the chief Of
his Majesty's civil cabinet. who alluded to
the will of Mr.. Rhodes during an audience
with the Emperor yesterday morning. 1t
was then pointed out TO his Majesty that
Mr.. Rhodes. while leaving precise direc-
tions as to the selection of the beneficiaries
of the Rhodes scholarships in other coun-
tries, the selection of the benefciaries of
the fifteen scholarships set aside for
Germans had been left to the discretion of
Emperor William.
The bequests of Mr.. Rhodes are regarded
at court as constituting an enduring i'm
pulse to good feeling between Germany.
Great Britain, the United States and the
colonies of these countries, and as giving
more substance to the grouping of the
Teutonic powers.
THE earth belongs to the vital, living
peoples. and these should act as one when
inefficient powers check advancement" is
another utterance attributed to the German
Emperor when his Majesty was speaking of
Prince Henrys trip and the need of bet
ter understanding with the United States.
The inclusion of Germany in Mr.. Rhodes's
aims, as set forth in his will. has brought
out some considerate expressions concern
ing his imperial purposes from even the
Anglophobe journals. although most of the
commentators on his purposes hold him re-
sponsible for the Boer war.
why have L not such minister" EN-
peror William is said to have exclaimed
after an interview with Cecil Rhodes in
1884, This remark is now widely reproduced
and it enables the opposition paragra phists
TO revile the present Ministry.

Democrats as Badly Divided as the
RepubIicans-Chine Exclusion
Act VIII BE Taken Up.

WASHINGTON. April 6.-The expectation
of the friends of the Chinese exclusion bill
is that its consideration by the Senate will
be concluded by the middle of the present
week, if not before The Philippine govern
ment bill will be taken up Immediately
afterwards. This bill probably will occupy
attention for considerably longer time
than has any measure since the Philippine
tariff bill was passed. and the Democratic
members of the committee on the Philip
pines are now very industriously engaged in
preparing for the debate. They do not pro-
fess to be able to defeat the measure but
say they will make strenuous efforts to Sc
cure material amendments. They object 10
various features OF the bill. and will charge
that its primary purpose is to permit the
granting of franchises They also will take
exception to the unqualified continuance of
the administration of the affairs of the
archipelago without making any provision
looking to any form of self-government for
the Philippine people. Other points Of con-
troversy will be the disposition of the
friars lands and of the public lands.
Strangely enough in view of recent con-
troversies, the currency provision, for the
present at least. seems to be the one fea-
luTe on WHICH In6Te Is harmony among all
factions.
Senator Lodge, as chairman of the Phil
ippine committee, will have charge of the
bill, but will make no preliminary explana-
tions cf its provisions. He will seek TO have
the Senate proceed Immediately to the con-
sideration of the details of the measure. At
least all early speeches on the bill will be
made by members of the minority of the
committee, but which of them will lead off
has not yet been decided Ali Of them are
preparing set speeches and expect the as
sistance of other Democratic senators in the
general debate. They count on devoting
two or three weeks to the bill.
There Is general preparation about the
Senate for the Cuban reciprocity bill, as
IL Is already apparent that when it comes
UP for consideration in the Senate its pass
age viii be stubbornly resisted
The conference on the oleomargarine bill
probably will take place during the week
and as the Senate made a vast number of
amendments TO the bill. the conference
may be somewhat prolonged. Senators gen.
orally express satisfaction over the fact
that Senator Proctor will be at the head
of the conference committee for the Senate
His management of the bill i'm the Senate

10 lead to other benefactions. particularly
from America. This Oxonian also referred
TO the fact that Mr.. Rhodes's plan would
prove expensive 10 the university. which,
he said. was already poor.
The Times in editorial on the recep-
ton of Mr.. Rhodes's plan abroad says
1T is unnecessary TO discuss the political
aspects of the scheme il indicated Mr..
Rhodes's aspirations for a better under
standing between England. America and
Germany, but il cannot be doubted that the
effect of the change on oxford itself will
be far reaching. and. ii is hoped, invigorat-
ing. The influx of Americans and Ger
mans will tend TO quicken the intellectual
life"
Owing to the absence of most of the
authoritative men from Oxford at the pres
ent moment" says the Times, lit will be
impossible TO get an expression of uni
versity opinion the subject now, but
doubtless the trustees have many important
points TO decide under the large discretion
left them.
The Times considers that If Lord Rose
berry would accept the presidency of the
trust the decision would be generally wei
coined, and says that he is by far the best
of the executors for that office.
