I - HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. j probably an Increase of Eighteen Mem bers Under New Apportionment. States to Lose a Member. By Telegraph to the Morning Star. -Washington, Not. 13. Director of Census Merriam was at ' the Wh;te House to day. He called the attention of the President to' the fact that the figures on the population of the United ' States, the total of which has been announced, are in such shape that thef will be at the disposal of Con gress when it meets for any action it may desire to take in the direction of a re apportionment bill. The re-apportionment following the count of the twelfth census will become opera tive by law in 1903. There probably will be a considerable increase both in the ratio and the total number of rep resentatives under the new apportion ment. Starting with the ratio of one to every thirty thousand inhabitants, there were sixty-five representatives in the hrst uongress. This ratio under the tenth census - reached 151,911, (riving the House of Representatives 325 members. The eleventh census in 1890 gave a popula tion or t4,b,4b)t or an increase of 1 9 Knn nnr With this the ratio was increased to 173,901 people to each representative, and at this ratio the House numbered S56 members, an increase of 21. The ratio under the new census probably will reach 200,000. With an increase of 13,225,461 shown by the presentcensus and letting the majority fractions of the apportionment count for an addi tional number, as has been the cus tom, this will make an increase of eighteen members in the next House. Re apportionment on this basis would leave but four States that would lose a representative. They are Maine and Virginia in the east and Kansas and Arkansas in the west. They would lose one member each. "Any ratio smaller than two hundred thousand, which would save them their full representa tion, would it is.thought, make an un wieldy addition to the membership of the House.' THE NAVY DEPARTMENT.

AN IMPERIAL EDICT ISSUED Announcing That the Emperor and Em- press uowager will Return to Pekln. Disturbed Condition of Affairs In Niu Chang Province. ny Cable to the Horning Btar. Pekin, November 13. via Shanghai. November 14. A protracted confer ence of the foreign ministers was held to-day, at tho conclusion of which there was a general expression of gratification at the progress made to ward reaching a settlement. It was stated that most of the minor points had been disposed of and that an agreement had been reached upon several essential questions. The meet ing disclosed fewer differences over important points than was expected, which is largely due to the fact that the ministers have received definite in structions from their home govern ments.- , United States Minister Concrer said h was encouraged to believe that propositions would be ready to be sub mitted to the Chinese plenipotentiaries at an earlier date than heMiad hereto fore hoped. The ministers will meet again to-morrow. Reliable information from Niu Chwang indicates a disturbed condi tion of affairs there. Robbers and pirates are harrying the region and paralyzing commerce. The Russians are making an effort to suppress the troubles, except along the railway. The weather is becoming colder, with nightly frosts, but the supply of fuel is good and the troops are not suffering. Substantially Correct. Washington, Nov. 14. It is said that the details of the proposition before the- council of ministers at Pekin, as set out in the London special dispatches, are substantially correct. However, they are not included in any one note so far received here of ficially, but are rather comprised in a series of notes and telegrams that have been exchanged between the State Department and Minister Conger, day by day, as the negotiations pro ceeded. The State Department has regarded several of these propositions as extremely unwise and undesirable, but has not felt that this fact justified the United States in withdrawing singly from the concert of Powers. Will Return to Pekia. Tientsin, November 14. It is re ported that an Imperial edict has been issued announcing that Emperor Kwang Su and the Empress Dowager will return to Pekin! A Russian force of 330 men, with four guns, which left here November 4th, returned Novem ber 9th. having engaged the Chinese. At Hsia Tsang the Russians fought two thousand Chinese troops, dispers ing them and killing two hundred. The Russians had no casualties. The population of the city of Tien Tsin now reaches 600,000 Chinese, and tho alliei are strengthening the garri son as against a possible surprise. It is supposed that one-third of the inhabi tants are Boxers. To Protect Catholics. Berlin, Nov. 14. The War Office has received the following dispatch from Count Von W&ldersee, dated Pekin. November 11th:. "The former Chinese garrison of Pekin is now between Hui Loi and Ksuen Hua (also written Suan Hua) fifty-two and eighty-nine miles re spectively northwest of Pekin. "On this account, and also because of a" request from Bishop Favior for protection for Catholics threatened in that district, an expedition has been sent under Count Von Wartenberg, consisting of the First battalion. First regiment, Colonel Jaeger command ing, a company of the Second squad ron, a train of mountain artilery, a company of Austrians, a battalion of Italians, and a mountain battery." Intentions of Belgium. Brussels, November 14. In the Senate to day the minister of foreign affairs, M. de Favereau, made the fol lowing statement with reference to the intentions of Belgium in China: - "The government does not contem plate military operations in China nor the formation of gendarmerie. We are seeking to acquire a piece of terri tory; but as a simple settlement only and without political importance. The acquisition will be made at Tien Tsin or perhaps elsewhere, but it will not give rise to military action. Attitude of she United States. Washington, Nov. 14. The rather severe criticisms of the English press upon the attitude of the United States government relative to the Chinese complications, based upon the advices of their American correspondents, have naturally attracted a good deal of at tention here. i With a view of ascertaining what basis there might be for the criticisms, an inquiry was to day made in an au thoritative quarter with the following results: "The comments of the London press upon the attitude of the United States in the pending negotiations in China are founded on a complete misunder standing. So far from the govern ment interposing any obstacles to an agreement among the Powers at Pekin, Mr. Conger has been instructed fre auentlv and in urgent terms to do everything possible to bring about a speedy agreement. This government took no part in the expedition to Pao Ting Fu, but it made no protest against it, and has given no ex pression, of opinion to the other Powers as to its propriety. This government is in agreement with the . Powers in demanding the severe and adequate punishment of the principal wrong-doers, indemnity for the past and security for the fu ture. It does not, however, at this distance presume to decide who are the most guilty, what punishment must be inflicted in each particular case, and what sentences are possible of execution. These matters, as well as that of indemnity, are left to the negotiators on the spot. It is to be presumed that they will not exact a -ii i reparation, enuer JCKJrauiiai ur ycuuu iary, which it would be beyond the power of Unina to carry out -Looting of Tombs. London, November 14. Dr. Morri ¬ son,- wiring the Times irom resin Mondav. and referring to the German expedition to the tombs of the Ming dynasty, and Kalgan, says: "Opinion here condemns the looting of tombs, although no punishment could be excessive for the cruelties re cently revealed. One English mis sionary had his eyes burned in their sockets with incense sucks, tie sur vived his" agonies for thirty-six hours, "A loyal Chinaman to-day dis cussed with me the probability of Gen eral Tung Fu Hsiang raising a rebel lion among the discontented Moslems in Western China."

National Orange in Session at Washing ton Good Attendance Annual Ad dress of the Grand Master. By Telegraph to the Morning: Btar. Washington, November 14. The thirty fourth annual session of the National Grange. Patrons of Hus bandry, began here to day with a good attendance and will continue for a week or more. The chief feature of in terest to day was the annual address of Worthy Master Aaron Jones, of Indi ana, who said that while agricultural conditions are somewhat improved, they are not what they should be. The prices of what farmers had to buy, he said, are too high for what they had to sell, and such . remedial action should be had as would cause an equitable adjustment of prices in all the leading staples. He urged oddo sition to the ship subsidy bill and spoke oi the growth of the industrial combinations "until the entire coun try is justly alarmed," He urged an amendment to the con stitution, clear and express in its terms, empowering Congress with the right and authority to regulate cor K rations. The interstate commerce ir, the grand master argued, should be amended so that all sections of the country could secure fair and equit able freight rates. VIRGINIA COLLEGE BURNED. An Institution for Young Ladies Near the City of Roanoke All the Inmates t Escaped Saved Nothing. By Telegraph to the Horning Btar. Roanoke, Va , November 14. The Virginia College, an institution fqr young ladies, situated just outside the city limits of Roanoke, was totally destroyed by fire at an early hour this morning. Soon after the "rising bell" had been rung, it was discov ered that the hallways of the big building were filled with smoke. The young ladies were notified tax lose no time in getting out of the building. The 'word quickly passed around and the young pupils, 150 in number, made their way out,many of them thinly clad and hardly any with any thing more than the simplest cos tumes of the bedroom. There was little confusion and no great excite-, ment. As soon as men reached the sceae they cheerfully loaned their overcoats to girls in light costumes. Some of the neighbors meanwhile brought blankets and the girls who had t' o least clothing went into near by hcuses. The fire started in the boiler room, exactly how it is not known. It made quick work and in less than two hours the buildings were entirely destroyed. The desks from the business office and a few articles of furniture were about all that was saved. The building was of brick and fitted with all modern conveniences. The loss is $75,000 with about 135,000 insur ance. The building belonged to Miss Harris and Mrs. Boatwright. The students will be kept together in Roanoke for a few days until it is decided where the school will resume. MONUMENT TO A HERO. One Should Mark Final Resting Place of Engineer Prank McQowan. News and Observer, editorial. In his interview in yesterday's News and Observer Dr, -Messerve, who was on the wrecked train on the Atlantic Coast Line, says that En gineer McGowan's calmness and bravery saved the lives of the passen gers. He suggested that a monument, suitably inscribed, be erected to com memorate the bravery of the noble en gineer who gave his life to save the lives of others. "Greater love hath no man than this." The brave colored fireman, who will recover, has a fam ily that needs help. Towards the monument and to help the fireman and his family Dr. Merserve . offers to give fifty dollars. We erect monuments to men who meet death bravely in battle; to states men who champion popular rights ; to divines who preach the everlasting gospel. The heroism of Frank Mc Gowan, going into the jaws of death with his hands on the throttle, was not surpassed at Appomattox or Auster lilz. A monument ought to mark his grave to inspire unborn youth to deathless devotion to duty. The News and Observer will take pleasure in acknowledging the receipt of any contribution to this worthy purpose.
