QUAY NEAR CRISIS.
Statehood as Appropriations Rider
Will Test His Strength.

Washington, Feb. 2.-Senator Quay
assured President Roosevelt that If
the minority of the senate, which he
charges has been filibustering against
the omnibus statehood bill, continues
its present course until the close of
the session an extra session will be.
come necessary.
'lf they do not give us a vote on
the statehood BILL" said Senator
Quay. "the session will close with
a number of important appropriation
hills Enacted on. We are entirely
within our rights in adding the state
hood bill to appropriation bills. The
president Of the senate can rule them
cut on a point of order as not being
germane to the appropriation bills,
but we have the right Of appeal from
his decision"
1t will be on such an appeal that
Senator Quay's strength will be put to
a final test. A number of senators who
are ardently in favor Of statehood for
the territories do not believe that the
omnibus bill is entitled to considera-
tlOu 10 iluSt oA du appropriation

one OF these. Senator Foster of Wash
irgton is another. They have indi-
Gated that they may vote to sustain

Senator Quay's committee on organ
ization. conduct and expenditures of
the executive departments held a
meeting and voted by an overwhelm-
Ing majority to order q favorable re-
port on the statehood bill as a rider
to the agricultural appropriation bill.
It probably was the first meeting that
the committee has held in fifteen
years. No senator can recall when 1t
ever met before.
There are signs that several oppo-
nents Of the statehood bill who are
interested in the ratification OF the
Cuban treaty are becoming FESTIVE I'M
der the discipline imposed on them
by the o1d-time leaders. They may
decide to vote for statehood as a
means of securing action on matters
in which they are interested.

brutally treated Filipino men aud
women and he wanted them welded
out of the army. Mr.. Lodge concluded
his remarks in opposition to the omni-
bus statehood bill and Mr.. Bard Of
California also spoke in opposition to
it. Juat before the senate adjourned
Mr.. Foraker of Ohio took occasion to
say that the proposition of Senator
Quay to tack the statehood bill on an
appropriation bill was not extraoldi-
nary. Legislation had been placed on
appropriation bills before by the will
of the senate. Mr.. Clay of Georgia
expressed the same view in a few re-
marks.

Just as the house adjourned.
Washington, Jan. 30.-Senate-Eulo-
gies were delivered in the senate this
afternoon on the late Senator McMil-
| Ian. Among the speakers was SEN
ator Allison of Iowa.
House.-This was the last private
| claims day of the congress in the
house and members with bills on the
calendar carried everything before
| them in committee of the whole. For
| ty-five bills in all were acted on fay-
| orably, despite the efforts of Mr..
Payne, the republican floor leader, as.
sisted by Mr.. Cannon and others, to
| defeat some of them. Many of the
claims were old, dating back to the
civil war, and few originated prior
| to that time. The latter were for
(; balances due for carrying mails in the
south when the war broke out. Mr..
| Payne was particularly insistent in his
opposition to these bills, calling atten-
| ton to the exposure of the fraudulent
character of many similar claims In
| the Fifty-fifth congress. He express
ed the opinion that all these claims
had been paid before. The members
interested stood together, however.
and voted him down every time he
demanded division. There were
several bills to reimburse postmas-
tiers and internal revenue collectors
| for stamps lost or stolen.

BIG FLOUR MILLS TO CLOSE
Freight Congestion Likely to Prove
Disastrous to Minneapolis.

Minneapolis. Mimi, Feb. 2.-The
worst freight tie-up that ever con.
fronted Minneapolis shippers Is now
at its height. There is every proba-
bility that most of the mills will close
down. The officers of the CONSOLIDATE
ed Milling company admitted that the
mills of that company are likely to
close and Mr.. Boyey, speaking for the
Washburn-C Crosby company, said that,
while the mills of that concern would
run as long as possible, general
shutdown appeared inevitable. 1t is
probable that 5000 men will be
thrown into idleness and the bushes
of the companies cut off in the very
middle of a season when orders are
rushing. Business with the millers
was never better than now SO far as
orders are concerned.
