Chamber of Commerce report asserting
that the United States was excluding Ger

almost prohibitive. He argued that by in
creasing the duty on everything imported
from the United States the position of the
government would be strengthened in ne
gotiating a commercial treaty with Wash

Herr Gothein. a Radical Liberal member
of the Reichstag, makes a singular pro-
pOSaI in to-day's issue of the Nation. He
suggests that he German government call
an international conference to regulate
the duties on iron so as to prevent manu-
~facturers from selling at lower prices
abroad than they charge at home. In other
words, to take action similar TO that Of the
recent international sugar conference at
Brussels, by drawing up a convention pro-
viding for the imposition of cOuntervailing
duties. Herr Gothein shows that the Ger
man urnaces are selling pig iron abroad

AMERICANS AT OXFORD.
En%gIishman's View of the Effect of
Cecil Scheme.

LONDON. April 19.-The Speaker devotes
a long article TO the probable effect Of the
Rhodes scholarships on Oxford University.
1t thinks it safe to ignore the influence of
the German and %colonials. saying the
former will naturally gravitate toward a
Teutonic clique, but it will be too small to
materially affect the settled life and tradi-
tiOns of Oxford. The colonials, OF whom
there are many already at Oxford. show no
tendency to impress themselves on the life
Of the college as distinct from the students
of the United Kingdom. 1t is in the Amer
lean invasion that the Speaker anticipates
the greatest changes. The writer of the
article writes:
There are two distinct classes of Amer
leans at Oxford. the sons of rich men,
affected by a more or less acute form of
~anglOmania, who are often more English
than the English themselves. These may at
times be ignored, for they will not want to
participate in the Rhodes scheme. The
second-class is small. 1t consists of sons OF
