His younger brother, however, de- clined to change his name, and his two sons are Herbert Samuel, of the local Government board, and his bro- ther, Sir Stuart Samuel, present head of the family banking house in Lom- bard street, and who received a bor- onetcy four years ago. In 1913 Sir Stuart was deprived of his seat in the House of Commons as Liberal member for Whitechapel and fined to the tune of some $70, «.) for having, in spite of his bein a member of parliment, undertake business as a banker, and especially as a bullion broker, for the office of the secretary.of state for India, at Whitehall, where his cousin, Edwin Montagu, the newly appointed chan- cellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, was then under secretary of state. An English law, enacted in the reign of George 1II., declares any- one engaged in business with, or tak- ing any contract with a Government department, to be incapable of sitt- ing and voting in the House of Com- mons. It was shown during the course® of the prolonged legal pro- ceedings in court, that the India offi- ce in London had purchased through the firm of Samuel Montagu & Ce. an immense quantity of silver for the purpose of Indian currency, and had also acted for the department in a number of other transactions, such as, for instance, the brokerage of Indian treasury bills. It was only because it was shown that the Indian Government had not suffered by the transaction, and that the firm of Samuel Montagu & Co., had not exacted any heavier remun- eration for its services than would have been demanded by other bull- ion brokers and bankers, that Sir Stuart Samuel, the head of the con- cern, was allowed to offer himself for re-election by his constituents, after he had paid his fine. Owing to the scandal in connec- tion with the" affair, Edwin Samuel was shortly afterwards transferred from the India office, to the financial secretaryship of the treasury, and now is promoted to cabinet rank. The chancellorship of the duchy of Lancaster is more or legs of a sine- cure, although it carries with it a salary of $10,000 a year. It is usual- ly held either by one of the older statesmen whe has no longer the strength or inclination to undertake the arduous duties of a secretary of state, but whose support and whose advice at the council board of the administration it is considered nec- essary to retain, or else it is aesign- ed -to some man in the prime of life, for the purpose of enabliftg him to devote all his time and energy to the enactment by Parliament of some particular measure. The chancellor of the duchy takes precedence immediately after the chancellor of the ex¢cheque, and be-' for tlie Jord chief justice of England the former Sir Rufus Isaac, who is also a professing Jew. Formerly the chancellorship was wholly in the gift of the rovereigm, to whom the duchy of Lancaster belongs, inde- pendently of Parliament. In several Instances it was granted by the mon- arch for life, a notable instance thete of being the great Lord Ashburton. But for the last half century or more it has always been treated as & pure- ly cabinet office, and the chancellor regarded as part and parcel of the administration. It may be as well" tp explain that the royal duchy of Lancaster is in no sence limited to the county of Lan- caster, but comprises much land also in 'the counties of Leicester, Lincoln, Derby and York, gs well as in 20 ot- her counties in England and Wales. In fact, the duchy of Lancaster has very little to do with the shire of Lancaster. There was a house of Lancaster present duchy, and when the house secured the possession of the crown of England, on the depogition of Richafdl 11, and its chief proclaim- ed himrelf sovereign, as Henry IV. he realized that the retention of the throne by his dynasty might live as that of some other usurpers, Accordingly he set to work to ac- cumulate as much landed property as possible, converting it into a great family entailed estate, ro that if he lost thie crown he might at apy rate remain one of the greatest territor- ial magnates of the realm. When his grandson, Henry VI., who caused perty to be continued tat "parcel" and to be vested in himself and NE heirs, kings, of England; forever, but under a separate govern- ment. from the other dominions n- herited by the crown.
