ETHNIBURG, NOV. 13.-Jossph
Choatte, United! States ambassador
Great Britian, this evening delivered the
Inaugural lecture ut the Philosophical
atltute of Edlnburg, taking as his theme
"The career and character of Abraham |
lincoln."
Lord Roaeberry, who presided. Intro-
duced Mr. Choate as follows:
"Mr. Choate Is oi*j of that choice suc-
cession of men whom the United States
have aent to this country. He has en-
deared himself to us in. a remarkable
degree by his brilliant and genial qual-
ities. For his discourse he Una select-
ed one of the most Interesting subjects in
the range of p .s.-dblllty, me great man
whom he peraonally knew in the llesh,
Abraham lincoln.''
Mr. Choate'a topic was "Abraham Lin-
coln." He said:
•. When you ask me to deliver the inau-
gural address in this ocoaston, I recog-
nized that I owed this compliment to
the fact that I was the official repre-
sentative of America—and in selecting
a subject 1 ventured to think that I
might Intereat you an hour in a brief
study In popular government, as Illus-
trated bv the life of the most Ameri-
can of all Americans. 1 therefore ofTer
no apology for asking your attention
to Abraham Llncoln-to his unique char-
acter and the parts he bore in two im-
portant achievements of modern history;
the preservation of the Integrity of the
American union and the emancipation of
the colored race.
During his brief term of power, he
•was probably the object of more abuse,
vilification and ridicule than any other
man In the world; but when he foil by
the hand of an assassin, at the very
moment of his stupendous victory, all
the nations of the earth vied withi one
another In paying homage to his char-
acter; and the thirty-live years that
have since elapsed have established h.s
pi are in history as one of the greatest
benefactors not of his own country alone
but of the human race.
One of the many noble utterance, upon
the occasion of his death was t a n
which "Punch * Ml, Its magnan mou,
recantation of the spirit with which It
has pursued him:
••Beside this corpse that bears for wind-
ing sheet.

own this kind—of princes
end absorbed all their energies. Tlu-y
were lighting the forest, the wild beast
and the retreating savage. Prom the
time when he could barely handle tools
until he attained is majority. Lino .n s
life was t'hat of a simple farm laborer,
j,oorly clad, housed and fed. at work
either cm his fathers wretched farm
or hired out to neighboring farmers.
,{ut In spite, or perhaps, by means of
this rude environment, he grew to be a
stalwart giant, reaching six feet lour at ,
nineteen, and fabulous stories ire told
ot his feats of strength. With the
! growth of this mighty frame began thai I
| strange education Which In his ripening I
years was to qualify him for the gr.-at
destiny that awaited him, and the de-
velopment of those mental faculties and
moral endowments, which, by the time
lie reached middle life, were to make
him the sagacious patient and triumph-
ant leader of a great nation In the cri-
sis cf lta fate. His whole schooling ob-
tained during such odd times as could
be spared from grinding labor, did not
amount In all to as much as a year,
and the quality of the teaching was of
the lowest possible grade. Including
only the elements of reading, writing
and cyphering. But out of these simple
elements, when rightly used by the
right man, education is achieved; and
Lincoln knew how to use them. As so
often happens, he seemed to take warn-
ing from his fathers unfortunate ex-
ample. Untiring Industry, and insati-
able thirst for knowledge, ami an ever-
growing desire to rise above his sur-
roundings. were early manifestations of
his character.
Books were almost unknown in that
community, but the bible was In every
.house, and some how or other Pilgrim's
Progress, Aesop's FaWes. a History of
the United States, and a life of Wash-
ington fell Into his hands. He trugded
on foot many miles through the wilder-
ness to borrow an English grammar,
and Is said to have devoured greedily
the contents of the Statutes of Indiana
that fell In his way. The power of as-
similation was very great.
FIRST GLIMPSE OF THE WORLD
The first glimpse he ever got of any
world beyond the narrow conflnea of h:s
home was in 18% at the are of nine-
teen, when a neighbor employed him
to accompany his son down the river
tn New Orleans to dispose of a flat bota
of produce—a commission which he dis-
charged with great success.
Shortly after his return from his first
excursion into the outer world, his fath-
er- tired of failure In Indiana, packed
bis family and ail hU worldly goods In-
to a single wagon drawn by two yoke
of oxen,, and after a fourteen days'
tramp through the wilderness, plteb-d
I his camo once more in Illinois. Here
Abraham, having come of age and be-
I ing now his own master, rendered his
last service of his minority by plough-
ing the fifteen acre lot and splitting
from the tall walnut trees of the prl-
meval forest enough rails to surround
the little clearing with a fence. Such
tv,* the meagre outfit of tfhls coming
leader of men. So Lincoln, at twenty-
one, had just begun In his preparation
for the ; u/b11c life to which he soon
began to aspire.
Another trip to New Orleans on a flat
boat of his own contrivance a pilot s
(berth on therhmr; these were the
means by which he subsisted until. In
the summer of 1832. when he was twen-
tv-three >i?ars of age. an event oc-
curred which gave hha 1>tfbllc recogni-
In His Official Family for the
Next Term.

THE SLAVERY Ql KSTlON.
I3y the Invention of the cotton gin

became at once and forever the leading
Industry of the ^oulh, and gave a tew
Linn. t .is to the imporiatlon "I sUvus,
that in If*, when the constitutional
prohibition took efTect. their numbers
i,„l vastly Increased. From that time
forward, slavery become the bans of a
great political isjwer, and the southern
states, un.hr H clteum.tance. and at
every opportunity, canrlwl on a b avo

Ing administration. His wishes wero
made known in an extended speech at j 100Ku,B
iho cabinet meeting in the White House ■ about live f'
today. Responses ere made by all the ri4th«,r squarely bullt^
members present, and while there were ;
no detlnite pledges from any of them
that they would accept the portfolios
thus tenderd afresh, there was on the
other hand no definite dlsclinatlon.
Today's proceedings set forth the
wishes of the president in the matter
and relieves the members of th« cabinet
of the cuHtomaiy obligation of tender-
ing their resignations at the end of the
t.-rm, unless they have made an irre-
vocable decision that it will be impos-
sible for them to continue in office.
,lt also sets at rest all speculation and
slatsmaklng of the country's political
prophets, for It Is understood that there
Is but one drtubtful factor In the homo-
geneity ot the president's cabinet. That
factor Is Attorney General Griggs, as
h.< holds his present position at a great
financial sacrifice. Still. Mr. Griggs re-
plied in terms of warm appreciation to
the complimentary remarks of the presi-
dent and voiced no Inte.nUol of retiring
from hi-, present position.
This is not the firs:, time the president
has experssed to the members of tho I
cabinet his pleasure at tne support they
had given him. He said as much 11
a general way at the last cabinet meet-
li,K. when the members, several of whom
had been scattered by the political cam-
paign. got together for the first time
and congratulated him upon the out-
come of the election.
Today the president had evidently pre-
pared for the occasion and In his it-
dress reviewed the work of the
Istratlon in the past four ye*rs. He
tion was an endorsement f >"* adn .1-

WASHINGTON. NOV. 13—The
president will submit to congress it
the approaching session the claims for
indemnification and for other rub-
stantlal recompense of the HrMish ca-
ble corporation, which stiTMen as n
result of the American or not l.ui
the Philippines. The company claims
damages for the interruption of
cable business by the American
forces. Thlf claim was reduced to a
very low figure, but was disallowed.
The Eastern Extens -n company
claims that It has a franchise from
the Spanish government, obtained be-
fore the war. granting it n monopoly
of cable business throughout the
Philippines, and that tills monopoly
hs* been invaded by the action of th>
United States government.
At the same time the Manila rail-
road company, the only railroad In
the Philippines, set up a claim, first,
for comnensation for us>- of Its prop-
erty by the United States, and sec-
ond* for the continuance ot an annual
subsidy of $4,r.ft0. guaranteed by th*
Spanish government against the
Philippines revenues.
The contention that the subsldv In
the last caf«e and the monopoly of the
Eastern Extension company, having
been legally obtained, must be con-
tinued. was recognised as a very im-
portant one. and was referred to the
attorney general. IPs decision was
to the efTect that these claims were
not based upon a contract right. Put
he also held that both the cable and
the railroad company had good,
equitable claims. It Is posfible that
the sulwidy i«i(l temporarily from the
revenues collected fromthe Islands
themselves, but it Is the Intention to
refer the whole matter to congress. In
order that It may do justice to the
companies. There has been a good
deal of correspondence on this sub-
ject and the British authorities are
earnestly suportlng the claims of
their citizens.
Another set of claims which will be
referred to congress are those aris-
ing from the detention and Isolation
of Japanese subjects In connection
wlt/h the bubonic plague last summer
in San Francisco, and the claims of
Japanese citizens for damages sus-
tained through the action of the Ha-
waiian authorities.
