Outside of these islands they hold French Guiana, which has never been pkroperty surveyed', but contains probably about 33.000 square miles, with a popula tion of about 44.000. The first thing w. would have to Jo would be to find some basis on which to estimate tha vplue of, these possessions, DANISH PRECEDENT. Could not our purchase of the Virgin islands from Denmark offer some I interjected. guide! said Mr. Crosby, duPerhaps, biously, but I have never yet heard anv explanation of how the price of (3S,000,000 which we paid for those islands was arrived at. The deal was put through with a great deal of hurry and confusion, but I am not sure that at this day there is anyone who knows what we paid for and why we bought it. If yon figure the purchase on the basis of population, yon will find that we paid about (100 in round figures per native. If you figure on the basis of area we paid about (200,000 per square mile. If we buy tbe French island on a similar population, calculation it would mean a total of (404,600,000. Calculated per square mile, the price wonld be only (238,200,000. Figured either way, you would 'not get the sum anywhere near the which France owes us. Neither would it help very much if we add Guiana. On .the population figure that colony would only add to the (44,000,000 total, excluding the uncivilized Indian population of which no reliable census has ever been taken. Of course, if yon were to figure by the square mile, the purchase price of the colony would be (7,000,000,000, an utterly fantastic figure. LITTLE TRADE VALUE. There remains the question of trade value! J suggested. You would not arrive at a very high purchase figure that way said Mr. Crosby. Tbe trade of tbe islands is only about (20,000,000 yearly, counting both imports and exports. French Guiana ia practically undeveloped, with less than 10.000 acres under cultivation, and placer gold mining its only important industry. Ita total tradei is less than (3,000.000. yearly Which does not sound like a good bargain.

Outside of any territorial deals do you believe that France could pay her debt to us! TRANCE CAN FAT. In time unquestionably.' France is a very rich country, one of the richest in the world intrinsically, and the French are a proud people who will certainly be unwilling 'to remain indefinitely under a reproach of an unpaid debt. Of course the only possible way in which she can pay us is through the expansion of her foreign trade, and the receipt of some payment from Germany. It 'ill take some time, to realize much from those sources. I do not believe that we should press the matter t the present. Let it He dormant for a while and you will find that France will herself come forward with some proposal for a settlement of the debt. When that time does come we should be prepared to offer her very liberal terms. I believe that the interest rate should be cut to the lowest possible figure and the interest and principal charges extended for as long a period of years a France would wont.
