WERBS EXAMINATION
No Report Was Received From Doug
 las Yesterday.

It vas expected that the preliminary trial of Ranger Webb for the killing of Lon Bass. saloonkeeper, at Douglas last Monday would be concluded yes tcrday but at late hour in the evening Governor Brodie had had no word from Douglas. Webb had been e,onerated by the cororer's jury and Captain B::-nninS of the rangers believed he would be dismissed at the preliminary exan1i@atiOn.
 The character of Bass in that com n7unity was not good and it is alleged by witnesses that the shot was provok cd by Bass who struck Webb with his revolver.
 Ranger McDoroid E-ho was shot at tce same time through the right lung was reported yesterday to be improV ing. It is rot certain who fired the shot. At first it was thought that il was fired by c monte dealer in the sd loon though no one could be found who saw him exhibit a weapon. The theory TOW is that he was wounded by one of the balls which passed through the body of Bass.
 Mcdonald exhibited remarkable nerve Within a few minutes after the shooting doctors began a search for tie bullet. Il was Of 45-calibre and had torn q great hole through the lung. The doctors were unable U locate it and wanted to give up the hunt fer the

DISTRICT COURT
An Echo of the Robertson
 Contest.

Although the recount in the electior, contest of Johnstone xs. Robertson was finished on Friday evening 6HCtne" order was made in the case yesterday changing the count by one vote. EX- hibit S3 which had been rejected was discovered by the court to come under q rule by which q similarly marked ballot had been counted and accord ingiy an order was made to count that one for Gray and J1hnstone. That gave the contestant f,O43 against 1.G47 for the eontestee. If the election ord cred in District g. had been held at the place designated by the supervisors the contestant would have won by one vote.
 Tn the case Of the territory against '. .. Marvin an order was made all lowing the complaining witness, Ed Martin. to withdraw Q rife which had been held as an exhibit. in the matter Of William Christy vs. CCra Brill, the plaintiffs petition for an order to show caUseiwas dismissed without prejudice. The defendant was the former admin istratrix of the estate of James 'Roarke. The plaintiff was a claimant against the estate.

Today it looks as though something would be done on statehood before you receive this letter. I telegraphed you the ether day that there might be q compromise uniting Arizona and New Mexico in one state. But the same day I sent the dispatch I went to the capi- tol and in converse tion with some gen. tlemen in favor of the measure they said to ne that this could not pass either body. Other legislation is dis turbing even our friends. The fear that some sort Of trust bill will not pass. or that needed financial legislation will b7 delayed. is a1fording net a little con cern to the friends of statehood.s
 On the other hand. there is q grow ing desire on the part of opponents other than the sO-called leaders in the senate, that statehood may be gotten out of the way. and l shall not be sur prised if they finally consent to permit q vote on the house measure, and if they do it will pass by q handsome ma jority. Really, the whole situation now is finessing on the part of the oppon- ents. Quay has the whip hand. and i; he stands firm they cannot get away from it

NEW MEXICAN DELEGATES
Desire End of Arizona Opposition to
 the Compromise.

Speaker Powers of the assembly yes terday received the following dispatch from the New Mexico statehood com 1nittee now in Washington presumably working. for the omnibus bill:
 No hope for omnibus bill Deal uniting New Mexico and Arizona as one state would pass but fer opposition of Arizona democrats. It's one state or none. Wire decision.
 M B. LAUGHLIN,
 "J. A. MAHONEY,
 .J WHARTON.' brief, prompt and as follows:
 The people of Arizona will never consent to the union of New Mexico and Arizona as one state.
 CT T. POWERS, Speaker"
 It is the impression of the members of the legislature that the wish Of the New Mexico delegation is father to the thought that the omnibus bill cannot pass At any rate, the decision of q large majority of the people is that no state is better than one.
 On the other hand, a telegram from Mark Smith yesterday stated that tile position of the statehood bill was more encoura ging than it had been for some time. In spite of the information of the gentlemen from New Mexico, the asso- ciated press and trained press core spondents who have better oppor- tunity Of knowing the status of the statehood bill than the members Of the New Mexico statehood committee have announced for the last tlRee days that the talk Of the two state compromise had ceased that it was impossible to line the democratic senators up in fa- vor of it and that some of the repubIi- can supporters Of the omnibus bill would not consent to it.
 The attaching Of the statehood bili to the post office appropriation bill day before yesterday vas an indication tha ; if there had ever been d hope of a com promise il had been abandoned. As q matter of fact none but the most in innate friends of Mir. Quay have aJ any time been qualified to speak of the situ- alton of the statehood bill.
 The following letter from Hon. Berian Wilkins, editor of the Washington PosT, to Governor Murphy. written Q few days ago, may be supposed to have been as accurate q description of th. situation of the bill at that time as Y was possible to give. It is generally agreed by the correspondents that the only change since then was the move made by Mir. Quay On Friday, ana there was certainly nothing discouras- ing in that:
 '.I have received your letter or the 4th instant enclosing your revised let ter addressed TO the American senate. I think they deserve all you have said and much more. l do not believe. as some of the statehood friends believe. that these letters do no good. On the contrary, I think the time has arrived when you should call spade a space, and not undertake to convince the op- porents of this measure with anything less than a club. I happen to know that your former communication caused a number of these gentlemen to squirn,. Coming from you, who stand so high in the councils Of your party, as well as in territorial affairs. it carries with it very much more significance than if it came from some unknown source. l have read your communication with care and I think that every time you have struck the nail you have driven it well toward home.

FEARING SPREAD OF DISEASE
Smallpox is Still Prevalent In Al
bany.

For some time past it has been known
in Americas that smallpox of mild
type was very prevalent in Albany,
but no publication of the fact has been
made until this moment. Citizens of
Albany are now aroused to the necessi-
ty of coping with the disease, for as
yet nothing has been done to pre- vent
it's spread there. Negroes are the
principle victims of the scourge and,
it is said, are spreading it among that
race by walking about while still
afflicted with the disease. 1t is to be
hoped that heroic measures will be
adopted to the end of stamping it out.
Several years ago four or five cases OF
smallpox were brought to Americas,
but general vaccination and the prompt
isolation of the cases quickly blotteG
it ont here and there has since beer
no other cases. The disease exists II
several other Georgia towns, as we'll as
in Albany.

The call made by the city Democratic
executive committee for the municipal
primary, as announced in the Times
Recorder yesterday, was received with
considerable enthusiams. It sounded
the first gun in what will probably be
a spirited campaign. and gives the
voters an opportunity to groom their
favorites on the track. Already several
names are being discussed among vo.
ters generally, and doubtless there
will be a good string of entries for the
race when the gong is sounded on De-
cember, 2nd. There will be three
seats in council to fill, and these will
be objects of interest to the people of
Americas generally. And just as soon

TO CORNER THE HULL MARKET
Prices of HILLS and Meal May Be
Higher.

While none OF the ''Nspoleons of
Finance in Amerlcus have expressed
desire or intention of 'cornerlng'
the cotton seed hull market, two
young men of Albany are buying up
all the bulls and meal they can find
with the expectation of realizing bal.
loOn prices next spring. They have
taken largely of the stocks of local
mills and are buying from individuals
wherever possible. Already they have
So, 0C0 worth of meal and bulls stored
away for the expected ''rise." It il
the general belief that, owing to the
short cotton crop, all by-products oil
the great staple will soon go soaring
Vast quantities of cotton seed bulls are
handled in Americus for feedstuff, and
it is is to be hoped there will be NJ
"cornering" of the market here.
