Washington, February 9.-(Special)-
Despite the efforts of the anti-state-
hood senators to create the impression
that the omnibus bill is doomed to de-
feat, the indications are that Quay and
his supporters only need to stand firm
to win.
Senator Elkins made a forceful pre-
sentation today of the statehood case.
Mr. Elkin5 is not an orator but he was
fortified by facts and threw the iron
into the republican leaders who are
trying to minimize the expressions of
the last national republican cc1ven-
ton.
The indications are that the demo-
Gratis will absolutely decline the two
state compromise if offered and will
dare the republican leaders to force an
extra session.
The friends of statehood have no
reason to be discouraged. 1t should be
made plain to the county by means
of kilograms to Quay ard Foraker
that Arizona will not agree to become
part of state with New Mexico.

ment it would require eight months for
the payment of the entire sum.
1t is the principle to which Mr.. Bowen
SO strenuousiy objects and which he
informed the German and Italian en-
voys he cannot subscribe to. Until their
protocols are relieved of these objec-
tionable demands, Mr.. Bowen says, they
must remain unsigned. He contends that
Germany and Italy are insisting on
preferential treatment, question which
they agree in their protocols shall go
to The Hague.
1t is the firm opinion of both the
Italian minister and the German am
bassador that the insertion in their
protocols of these demands is the result
of a serious misunderstanding on the
part of their foreign offices of certain
phases of the negotiations which wers
supposed to be settled. They are using
every effort to have this understanding
cleared up and have informed Mr.
Bowen that they hope to submit their
conventions to him in a few days

TAFTS APPEAL
TO CONGRESS
For Monetary Legislation for
the Philippines
The Financial Situation Is Growing
Worse and Making the Political
Situation More of Problem His
Plan of Relief.

Washington, February 9.-Secretary
Root to day transmitted to the presi-
dent pro tenn of the senate a copy of a
ca blegram from the governor of the
Philippines dated Manila, February 5,
indicating the urgent necessity of leg
islation regarding the Philippines cur
rency.
In his dispatch to the secretary of
war Governor Taft says:
The official ratio OF Mexican dollars
to United States currency is now S2.66
to 81; the total direct net loss to the
insular treasury from depreciation CT
silver since January l, 1902, is s1,277.-
947.
"All business is suffering greatly
from nuctuation and depreciation of
the insular treasury and there are i'm
mcnse losses to merchants who have
sold on credit. Failure to furnish re-
lief at this session of congress would
create CONSERVATION throughout the
islands. Added to the prevailing finan-
cial depression, the loss of animals by
rinderpest and other diseases and re-
sulting destitution, the political situ-
alton would become more difficult.
The adoption of American money
would enhance prices greatly and de-
ranged every form of business. Legisia-
tion making the gold peso equal to half
an American dollar as a unit of value,
the peso and subsidiary minor coinage
receivable for all public dues al the
rate of so cents American money for
one peso, with provision for the issu-
ance of certificates based on deposit
of new pesos would furnish a currency
as good as American money and bet
ter adapted to the needs of the islands
The Philippine commissioners are
unanimous in their views.''

Washington, February 9.-Althougn
Mr.. Bowen and other negotiators arc

ELKINS' ARRANGEMENT.
OF the Republican Senators for Viola
ton of Pledge.

Washington, February 9. - In the
senate today Mr.. Carmack spoke of the
Rawlins resolution calling upon the
secretary of war FOR reports of certain
court martials. He charged that mur-
ders in the Philippines By American
soldiers had become so common that
they would not bear investigation and
that this answer was entirely satisfac-
tory to our noble, generous and hu-
name secretary of war" He also crit
icised the president fer never having
heard of the Captain BrowneI case af
ter having announced his intention of
probing the crimes in the Philippines" ="
Mr.. Kean spoke on the statehood bill
for a short time when he yielded to
various senators who INDUCED in de-
bate over the question of interference
of the Mormon church in politics.
Mr.. Elkins also spoke at length in
defense Of the claims of New Mexico to
statehood.
Mr. Elkins read the republican and
democratic platforms and praised the
democrats for trying to keep pledges,
while the republicans, he said, had not
been able to keep faith or discharge
their obligations with respect to state
hood. Mr.. Elkins declared that nation
al conventions interpret the wishes OF
polit1parties and not those of in
dividual senators. Thirty three demo-
Gratis and seventeen or eighteen re-
publicans, he said, favored the omni-
bus bill, while thirty-eight republicans
opposed ii, and he wanted to show that
the minority was obstructing the pas
sage of the bill
Mr. Clay of Georgia, declared that
an injustice was being done the peo-
pie of Arizona. and New Mexico on
account of the statements made re-
garding their Mormon population. AT

but 1.300 Mormons in New Mexico and
$500 in Arizona while, ACCORDING. tn tho

London, February 5.-Presiding to-
day at meeting of the shareholders
of the London and Southwestern rail-
road, H. w. Campbell remarked mat if
the company did not adopt American
methods it was simply because what

would be rank extravaganza in the
other.
The returns of accidents were con-
sidered unusually instructive Not a
single passenger was killed in Great
Britain in 1901, while 249 were killed in
the United States, and 476 passengers
were injured in Great Britain in 1901,
against 4,129 in the United States.
