A WAY ID AVOID TROUBLE.

Washington, January 26.-Ic the sen ate today MT. Quay in charge Of the omnibus statehood bill insisted on it's consideration to the exclusion of all other business. When Senator Platt of New York attempted tc call ap the committee report providing for printing documents, Mir. Quay objected. Mr. Hale thereupon declared that MT. Quay was confscsting the time of the senate. The latter replied calmly that this could be obviated by allowing a vote on the statehood bill.
 Throughout the statehood fight the attitude of the president has been a matter O; interesting and contradictory discussion. A number of papers have been representing the president as an tagonistic to the measure. WhItevcr the presidents ulterior views may be, il is reasonably certain that he has taken TO position for or againet the omnibus biH and it was again ascer- taiucd today that he has authorized DO one to represent him as opposed to the bill.
 The friends of the measure have been watching the presidents attitude with jealous anxiety. If he had authorized a statement to the effect that he wish ed the bill defeated, these men would surely have heard of it. On the other hand, Delegate Rodey of New Mexico today unsolicited said that he had fur ther confirmed the belief that there will be a vote on the omnibus bill with ig ten days. that there are at least two more votes for the bill than have been recorded, and that the president had authorized no one to quote him a. a-ainst the measure.
 He added that some of the papers had attempted to make it appear SC, but that the friends of statehood were convinced that he would not veto the tatehood bill if laid before him. It is rretty we'll known that the president would have preferred a compromise ad- hitting New Mexico and Arizona as .u. stat. This compromise was sug-

A Holdup at Hoisinaton.

Hoisington was the scene of anoth-
er holdup early Wednesday morning,
when a man whose name we did not
learn, whose home is in Missouri,
was sIugged and robbed of his money
by parties whose identity has not yet
been learned. The result of the blow
he received is fractured skull. The
victim was brought to Great Bend.
and placed in the hospital under the
care of DR.. Meade. Sluggings are
getting little too frequent. -
LATER-Two men were arrested
at Ellinwood Wednesday afternoon
who answered the description of the
suspects in the above case. Marshal
Wilson of Hoisington went down and
brought them to Great Bend, but at
the time of going to press they had
not been confronted by the victim, so
identity was not altogether complete.
