Roosevelt Opposes Admission Of the

Washington, Dec. 9.The influence
of the president is being felt in the
statehood fight in the senate, although
there has been no public statement
of the presidents attitude.
He has talked with several senators
on the proposition, and told them all
that after long consideration he had
reached the conclusion that Oklahoma
was the only territory at present fitted
for statehood. He added that at tbs
first he had been inclined to favor the
admission of all three territories, but
that a study Of conditions in New Mex
leo and Arizona had convinced him
that the time had not yet arrived for
taking the irreYocable step Of admit.
ting them to statehood. The presi-
dents reasons against admitting New
Mexico are that the population of the
territory is backward, both in learning
the English language and in active
participation in political life The
courts. he has noted, are conducted
largely in Spanish for the convenience
of the population.

New York, Dec. 9.-Guarded by the

lily harm, performance under the pro-
lection of the police, a strike of the
musicians for back pay and. second
strike for pay for the nights concert
and, as a slight alienation to the
wounded spirit of the master, a pres
entation to Mascagni of gold watch
fob from his company in honor of his
birthday:
: Just why Mascagni and his company
needed such thorough police protec
ton does net appear, although the
composers representatives say thai
owing to the trouble in BoSton, il
which, he was, twice arrested on civi
suits, there was cause for fear that ths
company would suffer violence here
ANY way Mascagni demanded protec
tlon and it was afforded him. In Bos
ton Mascagni had appealed to the Ital
ian prime minister and had, according
to the cable report, received from thai
officer promise of personal interfer
ence: But in this city there was at
tention enough given Mascagni to meet
every ones demands.

For the past two years we have

by the British government to obtain
an amicable settlement of these cases,
but in none of them have satisfactory
explanations been forthcoming. Lat
ter1y the representations of the Brit
ish minister have been practically un-
| noticed. There are also cases in which
British subjects and companies have
large claims. We have been acting in
conjunction with the German govern.

cation has been made to the Venezue
