also carried a package of Grape Nuts

recalled President Shows proclama
ton forbidding polysamy 1t covered
the Mormon church throughout the
world.
Mr.. Depew read the proclamation to
show that pOlygamy had only been

thought another revelation from the
Mormon church should be forthcoming.

tive statement in the senate he may

Mr.. Teller expressed an opinion that
Notwithstanding the declaration Of the
book quoted, polygamy does not exist
among Mormcns in Mexico lie did

CT that country would tolerate that
practice. He added that il was his
conviction that that question is en-

\ NEW STATEHOOD BILL.
VIII Be Presented Some Time This
Week

Washington. February Leading
republican members of the senate who
oppose the omnibus statehood bill were
in conference for quite Il time today
Il ~ effort to devise a plan for bring
ing the present debate 10 a close by
suggesting Il compromise measure
which can be passed. They did not
change their plan providing Tor the
admission of Oklahoma and Indian ter
ritOry as one state and Arizona and
New Mexico as another, but they talk
q especially Of the time and method
Of bringing the subject before the sen
cto.
Il was decided that the new bill
should be submitted first to the COM
mittee on territories and be sprung
next week but they did not set any
definite day. One difficulty is the doubt
Of securing the adherence of all the
republican senators. There is desire
to have the republicans united and
still some doubt as to whether all can
be brought over The objection to the
omnibus bill being to the admission of
New Mexico and Arizona even as one
state
Senator Quay also finds difficulty in
accepting the proposition which is not
entirely acceptable to his democratic
followers in the fight. The democrats
generally declare that they viii not
agree to the consolidation and some of
them say that rather than submit they
VIII let the bill fail altogether.
