"STATI1E TO WASHINGTON HEREr'
London Saturday Review Says Choate's
Suggestion IL a Joke.
Special Gable Despatch TO THB SUN.


LONDON. Aug. s.-The Times's Ottawa
correspondent on Thursday cabled TO the
effect that the indignant inhabitants Of the
Province Of Ontario were signing petition
to the authorities OF Westminster Abbey
protesting against the proposal to erect
monument to George Washington in
Great Britain's historic edifice.' The petit
TONERS declare that 1t would be regarded
as condemnation OF the Canadian senti-
ment Of loyalty to Great Britain, for which
the Loyalists suffered so much. They
put forward the claims OF Wolfe, Cartier,
Macdonald and others as more deserving
place in tho Abbey.
The Times gravely attempts to soothe
the irate petitioners, pointing out that there
is no such proposal afoot, though Ambas-
sador Choate in his Fourth Of July speech,
merely expressed the hope that some day
there would be a statue of Warrington in the
Victoria in Washington"
The Saturday Rsuielo to- day, in a charac-
teristic paragraph says: THE Canadians
made the mistake of taking Mr. Choate
seriously. None who know him and his
unfailing sense Of the fitness of things
could conceive him guilty of betise, though
one must admit that at best this is not a
felicitous jest A statue to Washington
here! We might just as we'll put up one
to the Cape rebels we have just disHran-
chised, or to the Irish boys OF '9s"
The Saturday Reuiew considers that
statues to the latter would be more JUS
tifable, "for the Irish certainly had in
finitely more just grounds for rebellion
than the Yankees. The Dutch in South
Africa were different race and owned the
country before the Britishers. while the
Americans, people Of our own blood, owed
their country solely to US.
