CEN MILES
IN REPLY,
Congressional Mention of JEFF

BRINGS FORTH A STATEMENT

Boston. Feb. 9.-In statement is
sued today concerning the recent dis
cussion of the imprisonment of Jetfer'
son DAVIS at Fortress Monroe IN 1865 66,
Gen Nelson A. Miles says:
The matter has been aRitated at
different periods during the last forty
years, but never before has it been
discussed in the halls of Congress.
LAS far as my official action is con-
cerned, it was directed by the highest
authority; 1t received the approval
and has never been questioned BY
superioIs OF the Government. | have
no apology TO offer of any kind to any
person.
1.-The charge that the acts of the
highest officials of the Government or
myself were prompted for the purpose
of humlliating Mr.. Davis OF the people
who associated and sympathized with
him is as puerile as it is untrue.
1t is to be regretted that the high
officials, President johnson, Secretaries
Stanton and Dana, Judge Advocate
General Holt and MAJOR General Hal
leck are not living, in order that they
might answer the vicious vituperatIon
by which their names are now assailed-
Still. / am sure that they acted In
good faith, and, as they believed, for
the best interests of the country upon
the information then in thelI posses
sion and the condition of the country
at that time.

TWO NEW STATES
Bill Passes Senate Admitting
Oklahoma and New Mexico.
INDIAN TERRITORY PART OF OKLAHOMA

Washington. Feb. 7.-After contin-
nous sitting of almost nine hours the
Senate, at = 40 O'Clock tonight, passed
the joint statehood bill. As passed the
bill provides for the admission of the
States of Oklahoma Ito be composed of
Oklahoma aud Indian Territory and
of New Mexico. according to the pres
ent boundaries. with Arizona eliml
mated.
The long session was characterized
by exciting incidents and many sur
prises. Beginning promptly upon the
convenlng at IL O'Clock, the Senate
proceeded to consider the various
amendments which had been suggested
by the Committee on Territories. and
which had been passed over. One of
the first of these taken up was the
amendment prohibiting the sale of
Intoxicating liquors in what Is now
Indian Territory, for the next ten
years. This was displaced with sub
stltute, offered by Mr.. Gallinger,
which extended the amendment TO the
entire State for period of twenty -One
years, and this was adopted.
The fist surprise of the day came
when the committee accepted Mr.. For
akeI s amendment providing for a
separate vote by each of the territories
OF Arizona ana New Mexico and the
Constitution to be adopted by the FRO
posed States. The provision had
scarcely been made part of the bill
when Mr. Bard presented his amend
ment, which had been originally
offered by MI. Patterson, and which
nroyided for the admission of New
Mexico as State without the addition
of Arizona.
