 MT Beveridge suggested that it was time for adjournment. He said MT. Lodge had Intended to address the Senate today, but had left the chamber and desired to go on tomorrow. He would then. MT. Beveridge said, be able to so on and legitimate debate could continue. If. however, there was to be night session and a test of physical en- durance, he would not resist.
 The opposition would not. however. in that event, go on with legitimate argu- ment but would call for quorum every five minutes.
 Mir. Quay responded that he did desire night session but said it was for the pur- pose of making progress with the bill and not for the purpose of inviting test or physical endurance.
 Mir. d,odge made an appeal for adjourn ment until tomorrow. He said that any effort at unusual methods would be met by obstruction. "And no one" he added, knows more about such methods of ob- struction than the Senator from Pennsyl- Vhnia."

COUNTY OF LIBERTY" AND NEWTON COURT
 MEASURES HAVE STIRRED THE WIREGRASS

opposition to taking one and half beats of Dale County for Liberty" County if the friends of the proposed County of Liberty would agreet to fight the New ton court house bill to a finish.
 The meeting of the Committee was held in the office of the Commissioner of Agriculture and Industries. It began at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon and lasted until 6:S0 o'clock. The fight for the New ton court house was led by Senator Wal ter Il. Acree Of Dale County. He bore yesterday afternoon the brunt of the at tack on his pet measure which he had safely guided through the Senate and which he did not propose should be killed in the House if he could prevent 1t. He made stirring appeal for a branch court house in his home town of Newton.
 The fight against the Newton court house was led by MT. Sollie a well known lawyer of Ozark and a member of the late Constitutional Convention. Beyond the speech of Senator Acree the fire of Newton for the court house was reserved until another meeting of the Committee. Senator Acree announced that a strong delegation was coming from Dale County to assist him in his fight and he asked that the Committee hold the matter open until his friends had been heard.
 N@AS AOAAOWAA6 WEI hhOWA ClllEGHS or Dale County were in the city yesterday interested in the branch court house fight w. w. Kirkland William Garner, H. E. Steagall. Joseph Adams Dr. Lewe ses- sions. Judge G. P. Bowling and others. Most of them attended the Committee meeting.
 The following delegation from Newton reached the city last night and they will probably be heard by the Committee to- day: B. P. Pointer, D. M. Day, E. A. Trawick and A. E. Killebrew.
 The new County proposition is support ed by a strong delegation from Dothan composed of Mayor J. L. Acree, A. C. Crawford, G. H.. Malone, and B. C.. Farmer. The delegation assisted by Representative Espy is doing all in it's power to have the Legislature pass the new County bill If it is passed Dothan will be the County seat.
 Not the least interesting feature of the twin fights Is that J. l.. Aoree, a brother of Senator Acree. a prominent citizen and Mayor of Dothan, is opposing him on the new County proposition.
 A member of the Committee said last night that final action on both bills would probably be taken before Friday.

MIR. QUAY AGAIN WINS
STATEHOOD BILL HAS A GOOD
 MAJORITY.
Beveridge and His Minority Say They VIII Resort to Filibuster- ing in Order to Prevent
 Passage of Measure.

Washington, Jan. 27.-senator Quay made an effort today to hold the Senate in continuous session to consider the Statehood bill, but failed to hold a quo rum and was compelled on that account to allow the Senate to adjourn at 6:2O p. m. He secured another ballot. however, to test the sentiment of the Senate. the vote standing 17 to 29 in his favor
 The day was spent in consideration of the Statehood bill with the exception of an hour devoted to a speech by MT. Scott CW. Va) on the pension laws.
 The feature of the Statehood bill un- der special consideration today was the Arizona refunding proposition. It was charged that the territory sought to repu- diate bonds held by Hon. Bird 8. Coler, late Democratic candidate for Governor in New York State.
 At the conclusion of MT. Scotts ad- dress, MT. Quay gave notice that he would not consent to the displacement of the statehood bill for other measures and Mir. Burnham proceeded with his speech against the omnibus Statehood bill, concluding at 2:30 o'clock.

Mr. Platt (Conn) spoke of the report that Arizopa is seeking to repudiate some of its bonds and said that if this was true the fact would prove an insuperable objection to the bill from his point of view.
 The inquiry brought out a statement from Mir. Foraker to the effect that the bonds referred to were originally issued by Pima County and were declared fraud u!ent and illegal by the United States Supreme Court. Afterward, he said. there had been legislation by Congress making the debt valid as against the territory as whole and that afterwards the court had held the bonds to be binding.
 The question and the reply gave rise to a general debate in which Messrs. Hale. Platt, Foraker Tillman, Rawlins and others took part.
 MT. Foraker said that the proceeds arising from the sale of the bonds had been pocketed by Tot of thieves and scoundrels'' and he declared that the legislation by Congress placing the re- sponsibility for the County indebtedness on the territory had been induced by the boudholders.
 No wonder he said "the people of the territory wish to escape from out side supervision"
 
 he known who was the owner of the bonds in question. 'It now appears" he said. that they belong to a firm of which the Hon. Bird s. Coler of New York is the head. It Is true that Mir. Coler was the Democratic candidate for Governor fin the late election in New York That may have been his misfortune, but it should not exclude him from the enjoyment of ms rights as an American citizen nor re- heve the territory from the payment of its just debts"
 He said he was pleased that the ques- ton had been brought up, because 1t throws a strong If not q pleasing light upon the character of the people affect ed"
 Mir. Beveridge addressed the Senate on the Pima County debt.
 On the conclusion of Mir. BeveridEec remarks Mir Scott w Va.) moved an executive session. whereupon Mir. Quay suggested the absence of a quorum,
