Among the reasons which are doubt less prompting the continuance of the statehood blockade by the republican ring may be cited desire to prevent antitrust legislation which will prove inimical to the interests which have placed these men in the senate and the hope of preventing the passage of the immigration bill and other legislation in the interests of the whole people
 With 9 view to further complicating the antitrust situation the members of the senate are now preparing a number of antitrust bills which it is well understood are intended to head off the administration measure just reported to the house and likely to pass with the help of democratic votes at-an early date. When it gets to the senate, however, it will be met with the argument that one clause has been covered in the Elkins bill, another in some other and so on, and it is the hope of the republican leaders to in this way prevent all effective anti trust legislation even supposing their fight on the statehood bill should not prove sufficient to do so.

The New Haven papers are taking a great interest in our trolley strike, having been through one of these dis agreeable labor troubles within a year.
 A few days ago the Leader gave the affair big write up and last evening
 Editor Osborn devoted more than u column of his editorial space to the strike. Among other things he said: stIn it's general aspect and features this strike in Waterbury is fuH of enIighten- ment for those sincerely interested in the relation of labor and capital No one can deny the, proposition that when a man agrees to work under known conditions he is liable to the known penalty when heivlolates them. Busi- ness could not be carried on under any other view of relationship. On the other hand, there is no law which can compel a man to work against his will. When, therefore, a point is reached where men refuse to work and a busi- ness corporation seeks others to take their places, the struggle demands of government to see that law and order are preserved. The prolongation of the strike may disturb prosperity and sweep innocent people into the current of discomfort, but in the present state of mind regarding the rights of both labor and capital, there is nothing to do but play the game fair on both sides, and let human nature take its course. This is being done at Water bury. The strikers have been law abiding and the company equally so. If this condition continues to exisf, a settlement will sooner or Inter bs

DOMESTIC BANQUET IS
FOLLOWED by ARREST

Gayety and banquet commemora'

that as existed between w. Williams,
wealthy stockman of Union Park,
and his wife, Ada, was celebrated al
Davenport's restaurant last night, only
to be followed by Mrs. Williams ap'
pearins later at the home of Justice
Hinkle and obtaining warrant fol
the arrest of her spouse on the charge
that he had threatened to kill her.
Williams was arrested this morning
by Detective Martin Burns and booked
on the charge contained in the war
rant.
The Williams are well known in this
city, both being wealthy, and their
marriage last winter was regarded as
one of the happiest unions of the year
According to the story which Mrs
Williams told the officials, the wed
ding was the worst job done by Cupid
in Spokane for many months, and she
has been an unhappy woman ever
since.
Mrs. Williams is an exceptionally
handsome woman in the early 30's
and her narration of the events Of
the past eight months ending with the
banquet was told between sobs that
shook her whole frame.

their welded life. Two months age

he amAounced his intention Of quitting
her for good, and went north. Two
weeks ago Williams came back, and
begged for reconciliation, but the re-
union was speedily followed by an
other quarrel.
Yesterday she was astonished at his
apparent good humor, and the aston
ishment nearly overcame her when be
suggested that they repair to Daven-
ports have a grand repast and forget
all the troubles.
Mrs. Williams says she dressed her
self in Der best. The time of the din
ner went with incredible rapidity.
Williams had never been more gallant
in the days of their courtship. His
stories were bright and his compli-
ments and consideration irresistible.
Then came the end and husband and
wife started for home. At the corner
grocery the husband excused himself
for minute, but did not come back
and she wife went home, wondering,
alone.
At the house, she quickly compre-
hended the meaning of the elaborate
dinner. The place, she declared, had
been rummaged from cellar to garnet
