matter Of conscience and etiquette to
speak of their husbands as owners Of

Diminishing classical figures Of speech,
the case stands thus. as nearly as I can
judge Of it, and set it down:
John pays for house food and servants,
and often works hard for the money that
secures these for his family. Upon gen
eral principles he has right to know
that The money is wisely spent and hus-
banded: a right to be well lodged and
led, and made as comfortable when at
home IS his means will allow. If he sees
furniture abused, provisions badly-hence,
unwholesomeIy-cooked and needless
waste in any department, he has as I'M

more than her own living that the surplus

stoops to captious surveillance Of her

hood into Bettyisness. ''Bettyishness, -
according to photographers, is the syno-

to be ''womanish" is TO be unmanly. Mary
would rather have him savage, now and
then.

LEAVE 1T TO ARBITRATION
Anthracite Miners Propose to opera
tors that Differences Be
Again Considered.

SCRANTON, Pa, May S.-Today the con-
dition in the miners strike hangs on an
swers that are expected to come to a pro-
posal Of arbitration amanating from this
mornings session OF the mining committee.
This proposal was evidently agreed upon
informally during the night, for 1t was only
forty-hve minutes from the time the con-
vention convened until adjournment was
had President Mitchell, at the close of
the session, gave out the following state
ment:
The executive committee Of theh anthra-
cite mine workers organization has pro-
posed that all questions at issue between
themselves and the anthracite mine oper-
ators be submitted to an impartial board OF
arbitration, such board to be selected by
the industrial branch OF the National Civic
federation. This proposition has been sent
to the operators by wire. The committees
are now awaiting replies"
kilograms announcing this action were
sent to the presidents of the nine big coal
carriers and several officers of the Civic
federation. President Mitchell declined to
make public the full text of the kilograms
Tonight telegram was received through
a private source stating that Senator
Hanna had declared unequivocally that the
report that arbitration had been refused
by the operators was not true.
1t is the prevailing opinion here that
unless the operators agree to arbitration
or make some counter proposition which
will contain a substantial concession the
committee of miners will declare for a
strike.

May Resume Operations.

HELENA, Mont, May SIT is learned on
excellent authority that as a result Of a
conference last night between c. W. Whit
ley, northwestern manager Of the American
Smelling and Refining company; Former
Governor Hauser, a heavy stockholder
thereof; Phil Bowden of Denver, repre-
sentative of the Washington Federation Of
Labor, and a local member Of the strikers
committee the former two telegraphed the
officials OF the smelter trust in New York
recommending that the terms Of the strik-
ers be accepted. These terms are simply
for the recognition of the labor unions
formed among the 600 employees OF the
East Helena smelter, now on strike. 1t is
believed this suggestion will be approved
by the officials of the company and opera
tions resumed at once. Many mines closed
because OF the strike will resume also.
CLEVELAND, o., May S.-Four hundred

CHICAGO, May s.-(Special Telegram ,---
Proxies for the Chicago & Northwestern
annual meeting, to be held here June B.
are at big premium today. A battle
royal is being waged for their possession,
the contesting parties being those now in
control of the property on the one side
and the Moores- Leeds Gates interests on
the other. Books for the transfer Of stock
for the annual meeting closed last week,
so that purchase OF stock in the open mar
ket cannot be made available unless they
carry proxies with them, and efforts are
being made to secure the proxies without
reference to purchases.
Those now in control of the property
have awakened to the fact that big coup
has been planned to be accomplished at the
annual meeting, and they are now putting
forth their most strenuous efforts to pre-
vent II. When the books closed last week
they thought they were SAFE but they have
since been convinced by indisputable evil
dence that they are by no means out of the
woods. Large holders Of shares are beins
importuned by both sides to the contest
for their proxies and valuable considera-
tions are being offered for them, with a
large number OF stockholders refusing to
surrender their rights to either side at this
stage OF the proceedings.

STATEHOOD BILL IN HOUSE
Omnibus Measure for Admission of
Arizona, Oklahoma and New
Mexico Goes slowly.

WASHINGTON, May S.--The bill to place
three new stars in the American flag had
the right of way again today in the house.
The general debate, the feature Of which
was an extended speech by Mr.. Grosvenor
Of Ohio in opposition to the measure, was
closed at O'Clock and the bill was then
read for amendment under She fve-minute
rule. ~
An amendment offered by Mr.. McRae to
consolidate the territories of Oklahoma and
Indian Territory was defeated-57 to 81.
An amendment offered ay MIR. overstreet
of Indiana to consolidate Arizona and New
Mexico and admit them as the state OF
Montezuma was pending when the house
adjourned. The only amendment adopted
was one providing that nothing in the act
should be construed to legalize polygamy.
During the day a resolution expressive
Of the regret of the house over the death
of Rear Admiral Sampson was adopted
The speaker appointed the following COM
mittee: Messrs. Dayton Of West Virginia,
Payne of New York, Grosvenor of Ohio,
Watson Of Indiana, Meyer Of Louisiana,
Hooker Of Mississippi and Bartlett OF
Georgia.
The speaker announced the appointment
of Mr.. Gillett of Massachusetts, as a mem
ber of the committee on appropriations to
NIL the vacancy caused ny tue
of Secretary of the Navy Moody.
Without preliminary business the house
then proceeded with the consideration Of
the omnibus statehood bill under an agree
ment that general debate should close today
at o'clock.
Mr.. Moon OF Tennessee, the ranking mi
nority member of the committee on terri
tories, the first speaker today, earnestly
urged the passage OF the bill. arguing that
the admission of the three territories to
statehood would be only an act Of simple
justice to the people residing therein. The
constitutional right of admission, he con-
tended. existed in each case.
Mr.. Grosvenor of Ohio spoke in opposi-
tion to the measure. He said that the
weak point in the bill was that 1t was an
omnibus measure. The claims Of each ter
ritory to admission, he argued, should be
considered separately. In effect, he de-
clared, this was a log-rolling proposition.
When the gentleman from Massachusetts,
(Mr. Knox said that this was not politi-
cal measure he declared, he was contra
dieting ALL the facts OF history. From
the time of the admission OF Kentucky, he
said political considerations had governed
in the admission OF states. No one, he
said. could deny that Nevada was admitted
tT purely political purposes.

SECRETARY SHAW TO WOMEN
Head of Treasury Department Makes
Another EHort 20 solve In
Hpection Problem.

WASHINGTON, May S.-secretary Shaw
today issued amended regulations govern
ing the inspection Of baggage of incoming
passengers at the ports OF the United States.
The secretary also has prepared a circular,
which will be distributed among passengers
on all outgoing steamers, giving informa-
tion as specific as possible as to the rates
Of duty on goods usually purchased abroad
by tourists; what articles may be brought
in free Of duty. etc.
Another circular issued today will be
distributed at sea among incoming pas
sengers, containing forms OF declarations
and other information of which travellers
usually are in more or less ignorance.
Another circular is addressed to col
lectors and other officers of the customs.
giving them particular instructions as to
the examination Of baggage and the cour-
teous treatment Of passengers.
Among the more important notifications
are the following:
The free admission Of any article that
was taken abroad as baggage, provided 1t
is brought back as baggage and accom-
panies the owner.
The 800 exemption may not be claimed
on wearing apparel, articles Of personal
adornment, toilet articles and such other
things as are commonly purchased by
American tourists and are for the use OF
the person bringing them.
The ruling allows non-residents to bring
all wearing apparel and other personal
effects in actual use and appropriate to
the purpose Of the journey in regard to
value. Heretofore the ruling has been that
persons who had spent two years or longer
abroad and had a fixed place Of abode for
one year or more were considered nom
residents within the meaning OF the GUS
toms law. The recent instructions in
cluded under the nonresident classiica-
tion those who have been abroad for pur-
poses of study. the restoration of health
or other specific objects. and who have
had fixed foreign abode for one year or
more.
Hereafter officials or employees will be
discharged should they accept a gratuity
or tip under any circumstances while in
the discharge OF their duties.
Women desiring to have their baggage
examined privately will be granted the
privilege whenever the steamship company
has provided a suitable place. Several OF
them have promised to make this pro-
vision.
