WASHINGTON, March 26.-State-
hood for Arizona and New Mexico, un-
der the name of Arizona; statehood
for Oklahoma and Indian Territory in
1906, under the name of Oklahoma
this is the verdict reached by the Re-
publican leaders of the House. The
bill embodying the details of this pro-
gramme has been prepared. the Demo-
cratic members of the Committee on
Territories are looking it over and
meeting of a special committee au-
thorized to draft it Will be held
Thursday for final action.
Polygamy is to be absolutely pro-
hibited by the constitutions of both
of the proposed new States. There
will be no special discrimination about
negro voting. Suffrage Limitation is
provided for, however.
There is to be no delay in the adj
mission of Arizona and New Mexico
after the passage of the bill and a
convention may be called immediate
ly. The delay as to Indian Territory
and Oklahoma will be caused by the
necessary allotting of lands to the In
dians in these Territories. Under the
terms of several treaties with the In
dians the lands so allotted are not
taxed.
For this reason the problem of suf-
ficient revenue with which to estab-
lish and maintain proper public schools
is met by a provision for an appro-
priation of $5,000,0O0 out of the
United States treasury. This money is
to be placed on deposit at per cent
for the establishment and maintenance
of schools of the new State, although if
necessary some of the principal may
be used in their establishment.

Quarrel Over Broken

Refusal to Admit Men to Apartment

Damages Causes Fatal Fight.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SPOKANE, Wash, March 26.-Killed
because he insisted upon the payment
of 60 cents for a pitches broken by
three of mis- rcomers was the tragic end
of George Stevens, landlord of the Ma
rion block, tonight. The men said to
be implicated in the murder are Rollin
English, man named Harrison and
another who gave his name at the
rooming- house at Smith. They are still
at large.
There are half a dozen different stor-
les told of the tragedy by the roomers
in the house and by the children Of
the dead man, who witnessed the fight
which preceded the murder. The clear
est story is that told by Earl White
and Harry Stevens, a son of the vic
tim. According to the story told by
the boys, the three young men had
been locked out of their room, which
is off the main hall. Harrison had been
drinking and a disturbance was raised
at once, the roomers declaring they
had paid their rent and would force
an entrance to the room. Landlord
Stevens went to the passageway lead
ing to the room and there met the
young men. He told them they could
not have the room until they had paid
him 60 cents for a pitcher broken in
their room after a nights carouse. One
of the men thereupon struck Stevens
with his fist and second man, said
to be Smith, showered a rain of blows
on Stevens face.
PA was grabbing the man Harri-
son." said Harry Stevens, "and the
other man jumped in to help Harri-
son. English stood back and told
them to go after pa. Then Harrison
drew something that looked like a
knife. 1t was black and stuck out of
his hand. He hit pa three or four
times and then pa grabbed him and
they fell to the floor with pa on top.
Then the other man pulled pa off the
man and rolled him over. The man
then put the weapon back in his
pocket and beat pa with his fists, while
the other man kicked him. One of
the rOomers tried to stop the fight
The men then ran down the stairs.
PA got up, but fell down again
and was dead when we spoke to him" ("
The Coroner and police believe
Stevens was struck with a slungshot
which Harrison drew from his pocket.
An examination by Coroner Smith
shows that Stevens skull was crushed
by a blow from behind. The police
are searching for the murderers.

the river Chengcheng and one sotnia,
when about mile from Pakchieng,
sighted a mounted post of the enemy,
consisting of thirty men, which, on the
approach of our sotnia, was reinforced
by. infantry. Our Cossacks requested
the support of two half companies and
opened fire against the post and pa
troll at 400 yards. One of the soldiers
and horse of the enemy were taken.
On learning that the enemy's infantry
was advancing, our patrol fired two

enemy. There were two companies
and about three squadrons of cavalry
of the enemy on the right of the PAX
chieng, with posts about a mile from
the river.
There are 5000 japanese in the town
of Anju, and warships and transports
are constantly arriving at Chemulpo.
The troops are landed at Chemulpo and
are marched. to Pingyang, then pro-
ceeding to Unsan and Kangive."

SYSTEM OF WIRELESS
TELEGRAPH PLANNED
FOR PORT ARTHUR

NEwCHWANG, March 2s.-It is un-
derstood that negotiations are about
to begin. through Peking. for the pur-
pose Of arranging wireless telegraphic
communication with Port Arthur from
small rocky island opposite Chefu
which was acquired by France after
the war of 18S4-S5, in which France,
Great Britain and China were involved.
While the difficulties in the way of OBJ
tanning information regarding the Jap
anese fleet and transports by this
means are apparent, yet the project
is regarded as entirely new and as
promising success, should France coun-
tenance it, This effort to guard against
isolation is a recognition of the inpos-
sibility of maintaining telegraphic COM
munication in the No Mans Land from
Newchwang to Shanhaikwan, upon
which the knowledge Of Japanese
movements now depends. v
The establishment Of a French vice
consulate here for the protection of
French property and citizens and also
of certain transferable Russian inter-
ests has contributed to further the
tranquility of Newchwang in.the event
of Japanese occupation or Russian re-
occupation.
