Nicdemeycr, the Condemned Bandit
Makes Desperate Attempt at Suicide.
Peter Niedcmcyer, the leader OF the
Chicago car barn bandits, condemned TO
die on the gallows, made two desperate
attempts at suicide. Niedemeyer had
planned carefully, but was unsuccessful.
First he masticated and swallowed the
heads of sevcnty-tive or 100 sulphur
matches. While the phosphorus was
burning his stomach he sawed ut the ra
dial artery of his left wrist with sharp
pointed lead pencil. Striking bone III
the wrist, he gave up trying to sever the
artery and turned his weapon to the
large veins on the outer side of the left
forearm and with jahs and a sce-saw mo-
ton he lacerated the flesh and muscles OF
the arm and tore open the veins leaving
large Jagged wound exposed. through
which the blood gushed in streams, dye
ing his bed clothing and running down
over the cell floor in pools. His second
attempt came after the wound had been
dressed and closed by County Physician
Mcnamara. Niedemeyer was lying ap
parently unconscious in the hospital UNI
der guards care. His right arm and
hand were hidden by the bed clothing
and with hardly n discernible motion. he
slipped the bandages off his left arm and
with his sharp finger nails attempted to
tear away the threads in the wound, but
he was prevented from doing it.

STATEHOOD BILL is PASSED.
House Adds Oklahoma and Arizona to
the Union Group.

the Union Group.
Some progress toward adding two
stars to the flag was made Tuesday
when the National House Of Representa-
tives by vote Of 14S to 104 adopted the
statehood bill making one State of In
dian and Oklahoma territories and an
other of Arizona and New Mexico. One
State will be known as Oklahoma, with
the capital at Guthrie, and the other as
Arizona, the capital of which will be
Santa Fe. Oklahoma will not become n
State until all the Indian treSties have
been extinguished, but Arizona will be
admitted as soon as the new constitution
has been ratified by the people.
Until the next census is taken Okla
homa will be entitled to FIVE representa-
tives in Congress, while Arizona will be
given only two. Or course each State
will have two Senators. The Governors
of the States, the Legislatures, and the
members of the national House will be
elected on the day set for the ratification
of the constitutions OF the two States.
Polygamy is forever prohibited in either
of these States. An appropriation OF
$5,O0O,000 is made for public school
system III Oklahoma. and 5 per cent of
Tue proceeds or the nuDllc lands within
the State of Arizona which are sold sub
scquent to the admission of the State
will he devoted to the public schools. The
Democratic minority opposed the adop-
ton of the measure, and the vote cast
was DIVIDED on party lines
The measure now goes to the Senate,
but there is no intention on the part of
the leaders of that body to adopt it at
this session. An attempt will be made,
however, to put it through next winter.
