INSOLVENCY OF MILLIONS.
A Big Land Improvement Land Con-
 pany in Trouble.

JERSEY CITY, Jan. 10.-Chancellor McGill this morning was asked to ap- point a receiver for the Land and Im- provement company of the city of Su- perior, Wis, which owns property worth s17,0O0,O0O It is a New Jersey corporation and the one from which Francis H. Weeks, now in Sing Sing, stole nearly $5O0,0OO
 The application for a receivership was made by the trustees of Frederick Billings, deceased, who held a note of S16,OOO and collateral for the same amounting to $30,OO0. The trustees also hold about $6O,0O0 worth of stock. The orators claim that the company cannot pay its just debts and that its property is depreciating.
 R. V. Lindabury, for the company, contended that the company is amply able to meet its liabilities, and claimed the orators hampered the company in every way. He pleaded that the chan ce.lor should not adjudge insolvenit a corporation of such magnitude, able to pay it's indebtedness. Should a re- ceiver be appointed it would hurt its credit and injure the city of Superior.
 Chancellor McGill reserved the de- cision.

LONDON, Jan. 10.-The most i'm portant development in south African speculations to day is the fact that in spite of all denials it is now believed in many quarters that there is some truth in the rumor that Great Britain has purchased Delagoa bay from Por- tugal. 1t may turn out to be the ex- cuse for assembling such powerful British fleet as the one which will be anchored off Portland Tuesday next. As it is announced the government of the Transvaal has demanded among other things that Great Britain forego her right to obtain possession of Della goa bay and as Germany may look upon this as a move which will seri- ously threaten the future of the Trans vaal situation, if the report is true, it will become more critical

THE LAWYER CAUGHT IT.
Fined, Imprisoned and Disbarred for
 Contempt.

FARGO, IN. D., Jan. IDA special from Valley City states that in the contempt case against Herbert Root, attorney for the enforcement league, Judge Rose sentenced the defendant to thirty days in the county jail and fined him $200 He also disbrred Root from practicing in his district
 Root disobeyed no order of the court nor committed no act of contempt in it's presence, the charges being that he used language derogatory to Judge Rose in criticism in certain actions
 The case has attracted unusual atten- tion over the state, and in view of the varying decisions of the supreme courts of a number of states, the re- suit will be closely watched. Root got himself disliked because of the zeal he displayed in his efforts to close up the blind pigs. It is said the pro- hibition clement will vindicate Root by electing him to the legislature, and will try to defeat Rose in his candi- dacy for reelection to the judgeship.

THE STATEHOOD BILLS. Pressure to Bring Them
 Forward. Delegate Murphy'S Views on
 the Situation.
Arizonans, He Says, Are Not Ex- tremists on the Financial
 Question.

territorial delegates, Messrs, Flynn of Oklahoma, kurp>y of Arnons, and Catron of New Mexico, are waging a vigorous campaign in congress to se- cure available action upon their bills for the admission of the respective territories represented by them to statehood.
 Each delegate considers the achieve ment of statehood the chief mission of his congressional career and their en- ergies are bent upon securing it. They are anxious to have the bills before the territories committee reported to the house and disposed of in some way, and having made a canvass of the committee, believe that more than two-thirds of its members will vote for favorable report.
 The bills for the admission of Ari- zona and New Mexico before this con- gress are enabling acts, modelled upon the act by which Utah was admitted to statehood, with certain notifications made necessary by local conditions.
 The Arizona bill, which was debated by the last house, stipulated for inn mediate statehood on a constitution which has already been formed by the people, but there was doubt concern ing the legal standing of the conven- tion.
 MT Flynn's new Oklahoma bill diff fers from the former one in giving authority to congress to attach any or all of Indian Territory ito Oklahoma when lands have been allotted and made subject ito taxation.
 Ex-Governor Murphy of Arizona, who is now territorial delegate and who has sounded the views of con- gress on the question, says that he finds a strong sentiment for the abo,i- tion of the territorial system, but that there is much opposition ito the ad- mission of Arizona, New Mexico and Oklahoma on the part of eastern mem bers, who object to increasing the free silver strength of the senate.
 ''The people of my territory are not extremists on the financial question" he said. "The territory produces more gold and copper than silver and, more over, it is not certain but that the added impetus given to gold mining has compensated for the decreased use of silver as money. Although we are western people with western views, we are not extremists. Moreover, our statehood would not be acquired for year under that bill, when the pres idential election would be past and when the financial question might have been removed from politics as disturbing factor. It seems unjust that mere incidental issue should stand in the way of our undoubted claims to statehood.
 MT. Catron of New Mexico believes the committee will undoubtedly make a favorable report on the statehood bills and that the chances for success in the house are good. The terri torial form of government, he says, is unrepublican, and an anomaly; that iIt does not command the confidence of the residents of the territories or others, because officers are responsible to appointing powers instead of the people and that it materially retards the development of a country.
