Most spiritless of the Year.

NEW YORK. Jan. 25.--The market
today was the most spiritless of the
new year. The transactions on Wall
Street were remarkably small. The
gains and losses were about even.
Neither one exceeded a quarter of one
per cent. A general stagnation, un-
usual even for Saturday prevails.

WASHINGTON, Jan 25.-Congress
man Curtis appeared before the sub
committee of the house t'..L mcrnin,
to argue the adoption of his bill pro
vtding for government for the In
dian Territory. The committee has
several measures runder considera
ton. Mr.. Moon of Tennessee Offered
the first bill, which provides for q
regular territorial form of govern
ment for the territory. with full
complement of county and township
officers Congressman Jett of Hin.
| ois has bill which provides for the
| creation of 3S counties in the eerri
tory. and Delegate Flynn has bill
providing for the creation of 23 coun.
ties and fixing the county seats. MI
Curtis bill provides for governor
who shall be chairman of the Dawes
commission, secretary of the terri
tory and delegate in congress. ali
to be paid by the general govern.
ment.
Much interest has been attracted to
these bills, as the fate OF plans for a
union of Oklahoma and Indian Terri
tory as one state depends largely, 1t
IS generally thought, upon the action
taken by the present congress.
The creation of territorial form of
government for the Indian Territory
would in the opinion of Mr.. Curtis
and others who have studied the stu
alton, leave it extremely difficult to
secure the annexation OF the territory
to Oklahoma for statehood purposes.
Mr.. Moon and q number of Democrat
ic leaders in the house are espousing
territorial form of government for
the Indian Territory. with a view of
final admission of the territory as a
state
Mr.. Curtis argues that the people of
The territory cannot support a terri
-orial form of government, with all
of the taxes falling upon the holders
of personal property. He also con-
lends that the form of government
provided in his bill would meet all
urgent requirements of the present,
and pave the way, easy and naturally,
ior the admission of the territory as
a part of the state of Oklahoma at
the proper time.
The committee on territories will.
1t is understood, make prompt re-
port upon all of the statehood bills
as soon as the public hearings have
been concluded. The sentiment of
the committee is almost unanimously

the three territories, and citizens who
have been working for statehood leg
islation, have satisfied themselves
that there will be no strong opposi-
ton to the measures in the house, and
that their early passage by that body
is practically assured. Delegate
Flynn stated today that he had every
assurance that the senate would act
favorably upon Oklahoma's claim for
