Mr.. Duvall states that he considers the bill

ing to appeals from the judgment of the

Duvall, Ito make the Supreme Court in
General Term the appellate tribunal. for
two reasons. First, because Of the difficulty
and delay Incident to securing three JUS
tees of that court to hold a general term,
and, second, because such a provision does
not conform to our existing judicial system,

CLAIMS oF DISTRICT
WRITTEN TO TRUSTEES
OF RHODES SCHOLARSHIPS.
Commissioner Macfarland Reviews the
Situation and Explains Status Of
This Municipality.

Commissioner Macfarland today drafted
q letter. which he recommends be sent. to
Mr.. Boucher r. Hawksiey OF London, Eng
land, representing the trustees Of the Cecil
]. Rhodes will, in reply to the letter re-
Gently received by the Commissioners.
stating In effect that the District of Coluna-
bia will not be awarded scholarships in OK
ford University under the terms of the Will.
In the communication drafted today MI.
Mcfarland calls attention to- the claims OF
the District for scholarships which were
previously presented to the trustees, ana
expresses the hope that the request OF the
Commissioners may be granted by the trus-
tees at some later date.
The text of the letter follows:
'sThe Commissioners of the District OF
Columbia have the henof to thank you for
your favor of the 21st Of March, 1904. ana
through you to thank the trustees OF the
will OF the late Right Honorable c. J.
Rhodes for the consideration given the.r
vided in that will should be allotted to tine
District of Columbia. The Commissioners
regret that the trustees do not at this time
see their way clear to grant the request
but they note with satisfaction your state
ment that the application on behalf of the
Commissioners will be recorded. and re-
ferred to again, should opportunity offer
for awarding additional scholarships in fu-
ture years.
Express Hope.
1.-THE Commissioners express the hope
that the trustees may come to see their
way clear to grant the request Of the Com
missiOners. 1t would seem that Mr.. Rhodes
could not have Intended to omit from the
benefits of this provision three hundred
thousand citizens of the United States resi-
dent at the national capital, in the District
of Columbia, especially as it Is an excep-
tionally intelligent population. peculiarly
interested in all intellectual opportunities.
and with thirty-five hundred students in its
collegiate institutions of learning.
1.-THE Commissioners beg leave to again
remind the trustees of the fact that the ST.
preme Court of the United States has held
that, In applying the terms of foreign trea-
ties respecting the ownership, disposition
and Inheritance of property, the District
of Columbia is to be considered as a state,
as that word is used in such treaties. even
where it Is not mentioned by name, a prin-
ciple which seems to have direct applica-
ton to the construction of the Rhodes will;
and of the further fact that for all practi-
cal purposes the District of Columbia is a
territory of the United States, and for a Pc
riod of years it's official designation was
the territory of the District of Columbia"

RUSSIANS COALING
At A FRENCH PORT
TWENTY WARSHIPS REPORTED
GOING TO JEBUTIL IN FRENCH
SOMALILAND TO COAL.

Yesterdays cable dispatches stated
twenty Russian warships had passed
the Island of Perrin going in the direc-
ton of Jebutil This statement is very
significant for it shows that the Rus
slams have evidently made deal with
France to allow them to coal the Bal.
tic fleet in French ports on the way to
the yellow Sea, according to local naval
men.
The Island of Perrin is located al the
mouth of the Straits of Babel Mandeb,
the southern outlet of the Red Sea.
Jebutil is the capital of French Soma
liland on the western coast of Africa
about $50 miles from Perrin. Jebutil
harbor is protected. Evidently the
Russian Golfers are lying in that place
waiting for the arrival of the main
fleet to coal. Where the Russians will
coal after leaving Jebutil is not known
of course, except probably to the two
governments of Russia and France,
since La Belle France seems to be
standing by in time of Russia's need.
The Russian warships will have
about $500 miles to travel from Jebutil
to the Yellow Sea. Close on to two
months will elapse before they reach
the Yellow Sea, and by that time Port
months will elapse before they reach
the Yellow Sea and by that time Port
Arthur will in all probability have allen
into the hands of General Nogi's army.
What will become of the Baltic fleet
in such an event is matter that Is
probably causing Russian strategists
considerable worry. The fleet will ar
rive in the Yellow Sea, if indeed it does
really go out to the Far East, about
the end of January. At that time the
poft of Vladivostok will be frozen ana
with Port Arthur in the hands of the
Japs, there will be no place of shelter
for the Russian vessels.
