CLEVELAND AND REED.
How They stand on Statehood : The
Sent OF OppositiOn-nO nOme Hopes
! for the December Session.

Mr.. Phocion Howard, one of the most
able and painstaking representatives of
the press now on duty in Washington,
correspondent for the Chicago Dispatch,
Seattle Times and other newspapers,
writes the NEW MEXICAN as follows con-
cerning statehood:
"It is quite safe to assume that New
Mexico will be admitted into the Union
before the adjournment of the 54th con-
gress. A careful canvass Of the house
and senate develops the fact that ma.
jorlty of members OF these two houses
are favorable to the New Mexico state.

the matter comes mp for final considera-
ton.
"It has been contended ia some quar-
tiers that President Cleveland WAS adverse
to admitting New Mexico into the Union
on the ground that such admission would
certainly mean at least three moro, repre-
sentatives in congress favorable, to the
free and unlimited coinage Of silver. l

has expressed his opinion on the matter,
said opinion being Of the most favorable
character. will quote the presidents
exact words as given to me BY Delegate
Catron: 4 have been to see Mr.. Cleye-
land on the New Mexico statehood bill
and he seems much inclined to favor the
project. He said he hoped the day is
not remote when all territories will be
admitted into the Union. And, as for the
New Mexico matter, permit me to say
that when the bill comes before me for
my signature, shall surely give IL care
ful consideration
"The foregoing are the words OF Presi-
dent Cleveland as repeated to me by Mr..
Catron. But it waa not from the New
Mexico delegate that secured my inside
information. He is man high in the
councils OF the Democratic party and one
who has the entree of the White house.
With thsse facts staring one In the face,
IL is quite among the possibilities that
New Mexico will be admitted into the
Union at no remote date.

MExIcAN to know from what section Of
the country opposition to the admittance
Of New Mexico into the Union comes.

the currency question, bnt also because of
the thought that two Democratic senators
would be elected to the senate of the
United States. Speaker Reed is one of
the easterners opposed to New Mexico.
He has openly declared himself against
the bill, it is said, and for this reason,
aside from anything else which might be
brought Into consideration, 1t will be
a hard matter to get the bill past his
chair. But, as we all know, there are
tricks in the legislative trade just as

committee has purchased from the santa

Newport, ky.-At the trial OF Scott
Jackson, Detective Grim to-day testified
to having seen tracks on the bank above
where the body was found, which seemed
to have been made BY the rubbers Pearl
Bryan wore. He was present when Jack
son and Walling were arrested, also at the
private examination held in the office OF
Chief Deitsch.
The defense moved to rule ont every.
thing testified to which was not confess
sion.
The court ruled that the jury could
give no consideration whatever to the
testimony of witnesses which detailed
what one of the defendants said about the
other.
Another question was raised regarding
another private examination held in the
room of detention.
The court argued that Crim's testimony
concerning the admissions or statements
at this inquisition was rot competent
until it was shown that no threats or in
dncements had been employed before
Jackson was brought into the court room.
This question is being argued.

The donation of Fort Marcy TO the
city Of Santa Fe as national sanitarium
is indeed encouraging to all parts of the
territory. The sanitarium business in
New Mexico has heretofore been only
myth, but 1t is now reality. There is
no question but that our climate is not
excelled as to it's healthfulness, and what
is needed is accomm odations for invalids,
both as to comfort, care and medical
treatment. A sanitarium will provide
these necessities, and every county in the
territory should establish such an insti-
