'franlps in Texas.

Austin, Texas, Dec. 15.-All the cities
throughout this section of the state are
overfowing with tramps. Most of them are
loafers. Dozens have hand organs and
horns, and the atmosphere is lurid with
their ungodly noise. This influx is attri-
buted to Gov. Hoog's action in sanction
ing their capture of freight trains as
means of transportation. Their pres
ence is menace and nuisance to public
aud private property.

STATEHOOD.
A Breeze in the House Yesterday
Over the New Mexico ana
Arizona Bills.

Washington, Dec. l5.-The house was
dead-locked for two hours yesterday by
the refusal of the Republicans to vote on
motion to go into committee of the
whole for consideration of the Arizona
statehood bill. The Democratic leaders
decided yesterday to proceed with con-
sideration of the Arizona and New Mex
leo bills and dispose of them before the
holidays. Republican leaders do not
relish the idea of bringing these Demo-
cratic territories into the Union, and SO
the Republicans, except those frum the
far west, especially the states of Wyoming,
Washington, Montana, Idaho and the
Dakotas, refrained from voting.
The Democrats expect to have their
own quorum present to-day when these
measures will receiye nttantion.
No Mans Land.
Topeka, Kas., Dec. 15.-No Mans Land,
the Panhandle county of Oklahoma, is
dissatisfied with that territory, and does
not wish to be party to the convention
asking for the admission of Oklahoma to
statehood, but desires to be annexed to
Kansas.
This is the burden of letter received
by the governor from I. Ormsby, chair
man Of Beaver county, a narrow strip of
land 200 miles long. An effort will be
made to have congress annex the county
to Kansas, Colorado or Texas.
