River Notes.

A portion of the flooring on the
Alexandra and Washington Terry line
wharf, at the foot of 9TH street, Wash
ington, is being renewed.
The steamer Newport News has
taken the place Of the steamer Norfolk

The Norfolk will be off her route for two

For several years past, ever since the
cruiser Dixie went ashorein the Potomac
near Clifton Beach, the naval authorities
have been fearful of allowing any of the
deeper draft vessels to come up the river
to Washington to take part in the public
celebrations and only the small vessels
were ordered there. Now, however, the
larger vessels can come up the river
without danger, as a wide channel,
twenty-four feet deep, exists from Alex
andria to the capes of the Chesapeake.
The river men will bring these facts to
the attention of the Navy Department,
as the action of the department in not
allowing the large vessels to come to
this city is having the effect of making
the owners of deep-draft freighters un-
willing to charter their boats to load for
this city or Washington.

CONTESTING THE NEW CONSTI-
TUITION.

As stated yesterday in regard to the
suits against the constitution, Mr.. John
S. Wise is preparing papers OF applica-
ton to the courts, making Governor
Montague, the members Of the constitu-
tional convention and the members of
the board of registrars, individually
and collectively, responsible as parties
to an alleged conspiracy to take from the
colored voters their constitutional rights,
and to make them responsible to such
colored voters for $4,000 damage each,
in the suits at law. The papers are ae-
dressed TO the United States Court ard
the phraseology is rich in charges OF
fraud and conspiracy, and provides that
any negro in Virginia who was denied
the right to register may bring suit for
this amount against any of the members
named. The members of the convention
are denounced as conspirators, and the
whole proceedings of that body are de-
clared null and void because they refused,
when they organized to take any oath of
office or oath of allegiance to the Con-
stitution of the United States. After de-
nouncing the convention as a band OF
traitors in refusing to submit the con-
stitution to the people for ratification,
the governor is accused of being tool
of that body, breaker of his solemn
oath, and loresworn, impeached public
official.
These papees are being printed in
blank form to be scattered all over the
State. This new move will cause big
stir among the democratic leaders al
over the State. 1t may result in SHARP
investigation as to whether some persons
more interested than the negroes in de
feating the new constitution are not be
hind this whole fight. The negroe
have raised little,money, though it is salt
that their churches will be visited an
assessments laid upon all males, as tn
contest that is on will require a larg
sum. which must be assured from som
responsible source.

THE STATEHOOD BILL
OPPOSITION TO THE MEASURE

Delegate Marcus A. Smiths Fight for His Territory Comes Near End ing in His Death-Prompt
 Medical Aid Saves Him.

Washington, May 9.-The opposition in the House to the hill for the admission of. Oklahoma. Arizona and New Mexico collapsed at the last minute today and the bill was passed without division as it came from the committee except for a few verbal amendments. The real test came on an amendment offered by MT. Overstreet of Indiana to join New Mex ico and Arizona and admit them as the State of Montezuma. It was beaten-S to 106--and all opposition then ceased.
 The closing scenes of the debate were accompanied by dramatic incident which narrowly escaped being a tragedy. Deieeate Marcus A. Smith of Arizona. who has been fighting for the admission of his Territory for dozen years, had just made vigorous speech against the Overstreet amendment. when he was seized with a rush of blood to the head. He was conveyed to the lobby where se !- eral physici ms, who arc members or the HouBe, by the prompt administration of powerful heart stimulaDts saved him from stroke of apoplexy. He later rallied and was removed to his hotel
 The bill as passed today provides eIlab- ling acts for Oklahoma. Arizona and New Mexico. similar in form to former enab- ling acts with the exception that tne Constitutional Convention of New Mexico Is empowered to designate the name by which the new State shall enter the Un- ion and in the case of Oklahoma the Con- ventton shall express the consent of that State that Congress at any future time may attach all or any part Of Indian Ter ritoty to it.

ENGLISH PAPERS ANGRY.
Gobbling of the Atlantic Lines Deep
 ly Resented.

London, May 9.--Distrust and resent ment are the keynotes to the comments of all tho afternoon papers here on the shipping combine agreements. They all refer wrathfully to the recent details Of Meesrs. Ismay and Pierri, respectively, of the White Star Line and Harland and Wolff of what now proves to have been absolutely true.
 The Westminster Gazette referring to diplomatic untruths," expressed the hope that i've shall be spared this peculiar de- veIopment which in America accompanies the great trust movements"
 No one attempts claims that any yes. tige of control of the lines remains in the British hands 'Thc dollar God" says better part of the British Atlantic carry ing trade and the only community of interest existing is the same that existed between the Lady of Riga and her mount at the end of their joint excursion. No doubt the smile on the face of the Yankee tiger Is an extremely broad one. If anything Is expectable from the Board of Trade under the present management, it might be hoped that the use of the British flag to cover ships which are British only in name would be refused and the vessels be placed in the position of pirates"
 Dealing with Harland and wolf's posi- ton. The St. James Gazette says that it considers that when the building is transferred to United States yards, as il inevitably will be as soon as the fostering care of the steel trust has sufficiently en- larged the American ship building re- sources Harland and Wolff will have nc alternative but to cross tho Atlantic.
 The Pail Mall Gazette finds that the combine Is grossly over-capitalizcd" and says:
 This was a foregone conclusion from Mir. Morgan's record. He does not deal in little things and Is not content with small profits. The huge capitalization is out of all proportion to the real value of the fleet and 1t is clear that substantial advance in freights will have to be made in order to pay dividends"
 The Associated Pres learns that King Edwards has expressed to friends his strong disapproval of the combine on pa triotic grounds.

McLaurin Uses His Fists.

Washington. May 9.--There was an ex- citing scepe in the lobby of 9 hotel here tonight in which Senator McLsurin of South Carolina figured The Senator was sitting in the dining room with gentle man when he became the object of some offensive attention from a man whose name the Senator refuses to disclose and who. the Senator says. was under the in- 1uence of liquor at the time. Shortly af- ter this the Senator and his friend left the dining room and went to the cigar stand While standing there the man wh' had followed the Senator from the dining room approached him, whereupon Mir. Me I.aurin knocked him down. The mans friends came to his assistance and ended the scene by hustling him away. The Senator was not struck. There were no arrests.
