HIS DECISION NEXT WEEK
ATTORNEYS CONCLUDE ARGUMENT
IN LYNCHEHAUN CASE.
Mr.. La Toilette Attempts tn show that
the Crime Was Not n Political One
Other Court Cases.

The arguments in the Lynchehaun extra
dition case before United States Commits
sioner Moores closed yesterday at noon
and the case was submitted to the COM
missioner for his decision. The attorneys
on both sides are granted four days In
which to submit their citations of authori-
ties. Mr.. Moores Will probably decide the
case next week.
Jesse j. NJ. La Toilette made the closing
argument for the British government yes
terday morning.. answering the argument
of Addison G. Harris, attorney for Lynche-
haun, made Tuesday afternoon He said
that the executive department OF the
United States government was the proper
authority to decide whether the offense or
which Lynchehaun was convicted In Ire
land a political not; that 1t was
not for the commissioner to determine. The
commissioner held that putting that con-
struction upon the case IL would not De
necessary TO proceed farther with the case
before him.
Mr.. la Toilette argued that the crime
was not political one, because tnere was
no armed conflict between the defendant
and the government authorities MI La
Toilette reviewed the cases cited by the
opposing counsel In which they sought 10
establish the crime as a political one and
In every one Mr. La Toilette pointed Out
that armed conflict was the essential point
involved. He showed the court that Can
ada had decided that IL Booth, the assassin
of Lincoln, should flee 10 that country ne
could not be returned because the crime
was not a political one and that Spain
had also made ruling OF the same KIND
in regard 10 John Surratt one or Booth $
consprators.
There were many people in the courtroom
who but for the repeated demands for order
would have given strong and frequent ut
terance to their feelings for the prisoner
and the counsel for the prosecution.

BRITISH IN CANADA,
Rapidly Growing Less, According I
Census Report.

Those Canadians who profess ardent
loyalty to the British Crown are u
good deal worried by the emigration
which has begun to flow into the
Northwest Territories of the dominion
from the adjoining section OF tn,
United States. They appreIlcnd tina.
the newcomers will not appreciate tn,
position OF dependence on trnnsut.
lantic monarchy of which the Can.
adam Conservatives are proud. There
may be some ground for the nisgiv.
thinking that at no distant day loyal
ty to the British Crown will cease To-
be a dominant sentiment in Canada
AS it is the sentiment is shared on
ly by descendants of English ana
Scotch emigrants and of the Loyalst
refugees who settled in British NORTH
America after our Revolutionary War
Now it is precisely this element of the
Canadian population which, according
to the census of 1901, is increasing
least rapidly, ana which, unless rc
cruitcd by unexpected emigration from
Great Britain, will be greatly outnum
bcrcl in the course of frw decades
says the New York sun.
The figures of The recent census show
That the immigration from the Unirt
Kingdom into the dominion does not
suffice to supply the loss by dealt
among the British-born inhabitants OF
the country. or persons orn in Eng
land, Ireland or Scotland there wcr,

is to say, there are fewer British nId
1rish-bOrn people in Camnda today by
nearly 100000 than tlcic were thirty
years ago On the other hand, tho
number of immigrants from countries
other than those embraced In the Brit
ish Empire was 27S,SOI in 1901, az

takes place in the inflow from tht
United Kingdom, The forcign-born res
idcnts in Canada will soon outnumbrl
the immigrants Of British and Irisi

There is another nminOlS fact
brought out by the last census. III,
Canadians of English, Scotch or Irish
descent are increasing much less rap,
idly than are the French Canadians
The latter double in numbers every
quarter of 4 century. In Quebec the
