ADMISSION OF TERRITORIES.
The Republican Senator'S Discuss the
Matter in Caucus


WASHINGTON. Jan. 3O.-A slimly attended
caucus of republican senators was held at
the capitol this morning The session was
necessarily short, owing to the fact that the
Senate met an hour earlier than
usual. The course to be followed by the
party in the treatment Of the applications
of the territories for admission was the oc-
casion for the caucus. The provisions of
the House (omnibusl bill, which is
now pending befure the Senate com
mittee on territories, were briefly explained
by Chairman Platt, who criticised the gen.
era plan and details OF the measure. When
this had been done, little time remained TO
general discussion. IL was made clearly ap-
parent, however, from the limited expires ion
of individual op Mon that there has been
little or no change in the position taken by
the republican senators upon the subject of
the last session.
THE DISPOSITION SHOWN.
A disposition was shown to report the
omnibus bin to the Senate, but with amend -
ments excluding New Mexico and letting IN
North and South Dakota, Montana and
Washington. There was shown decided
indiSposition to delaying the admissiol OF
South Dakota by submitting the question
again to the pc pie Of the territory, and
there were hints of a democratic scheme to
influence the vote of North Dakota, with
the assistance of tie railwa5 people, 80
as to prevent division and secure
the admission Of Dakota as one state. and
this was urged as sufficient reason for re-
fusing to accept the House hill. In view OF
the small attendance, less than quorum,
there was no disposition exhibited by the
caucus to bind the pa ty generally, so that
no formal conclu ion was re ch d.

Who Perhaps Murdered CAL
Iahan, Arrested.

Louis j. Soathoff, who is charged with
stabbing Mike Callahan during a free
fight at Dutch Henry's joint on Eff
teenth street last Sunday night, was ar
rested while working with a Union Pacific
steel gang a few miles east of this city
yesterday. Sheriff Martin and Deputy
Thomasson brought the suspect to the
city and placed him in the county jail.
When Soathof first learned that the
officers were hunting him he secured a
Winchester and declared that he would
not be taken so long as a breath of life re-
manned ia his body. He was tame enough
yesterday.
Soathoff makes determined protect in
effect that he is innocent and declares
that he at no time carried a carving
weapon. Several persons will swear that
he had a knife during the entire day pre-
ceding the evening OF the stabbing and
that in the morning he was advised to
leave the weapon at home.
The condition of Callahan. the injured
man is very critical. His injuries are
much more serious that at first supposed
and recovery extremely doubtful.
Stocks, the man first accused of the
stabbing, is still held at the county jail.
