Statehood Bill Allowed to
 GO to Conference
BUSY COMMITTEE
huch to Be Done in the Remaining Week Of the Session = An Estimate of the Probabilities of Agreement. Hay Accept FOraker Amendment.

Washington, Feb. 25.-The senate to- day heard the concluding arguments on both sides of the Swayne impeaeh- ment case. ex-Senator ThurstOn speak ing for Judge Swayne and DeArnOnd presenting the case on behalf Of the house managers. After a discussion of almost two hours in secret session an order to vote on Monday morning at 10 o'clock was made. The voting will be on articles separately and will con tinue until all have been passed on
 The senate at last granted the re- quest of the house for a conference on the statehood bill and cOnferees on that measure were appointed. Senator Morgan, whose objection to the con ference, held up the bill last night yielded today. The senate also sent to conference the bill for the government of the Panama zone.
 Senators Beveridge. Nelson and Bate were designated by the senate as conferees. It is expected that the first meeting of the conferees will be held on Monday. There are now so many differences to harmonize that the joint conferences of both the senate and the house will be held until some agree ment is reached or it is demonstrated that no agreement can be hoped for Senator Beveridge said that he could promise no more than an earnest effort to get the houses. together. The house faction has given notice that the ad- mission of Oklahoma and the Indian Territory alone will not be thought of. The only basis for a compromise now seems to be that which would admit Oklahoma and Indian Territory and give each New Mexico and Arizona the rights to accept or reject the proposi- tion of joint statehood There are op- ponents of this plan in the house and the outcome is doubtful
 The naval appropriation bill was considered in part and while it was be- fore the senate Mir. Hale and MT Cor man united in condemning the rapid increase in the navy. A large number of private and seni-private bills were passed, including S65 pension bills.

Japanese. at Great Loss,
 Take a Hill
GRIM DIFFERENTIATION
And Superior Numbers OverCame the
 Russian Defenders-Ge General Stoes- seI Expected at St. Petersburg Last Night What He'll See in the Papers

Tsinkhetchen. Feb. 25.-The Japan ese attack on Beresneff hill developed into an encounter of the most sangu- mary nature. The Japanese. pressing forward in a bayonet charge, were re- ceived with pyroty1yn hand grenades. or were blown up by buried mines, and the Japanese machine guns which took positions to support the advance were silenced for time and beaten back.
 The Japanese came on with greater resolution however and the Russians finally yielded the hill in the face of greatly superior numbers and the de- ternined series of attacks which con- tinued night and day. The Japanese on Friday attacked a hill opposite Tzentf pass, but were repulsed with great loss.
 News has just been received that the Japanese have renewed the attack on Tzenti pass tonight.

sToEssEL's RETURN.
His Quick Fall from the Pedestal of
 the Hero.

St. Petersburg, Feb. 25.-On the eve of General StoesSefs arrival here, a section of the press is attacking him bitterly. These papers have printed all the stories tending to show that the garrison of Port Arthur was not at ex- tremities when it capitulated, the Slovo, even alleging mistreatment of inhabitants of the city. A majority of papers, however. resent the criticism in advance of an official investigation as being unjust and unwarranted.
 On account of the death of Grand Duke Sergius, all plans for big public ovation for General StoesseI have been countermanded and the man who a few weeks ago was extolled as the hero of the war will return to the Russian capitol tonight almost like a soldier in disgrace.

THE NORTH SEA FINDING
Compromise Which Will Not Wholly
 Satisfy Either Party.

Paris, Feb. 25.-The decision in con- troversy between Great Britain and Russia arising from the firing on the game cock fishing fleet on the night of October 21-22 by the Russian sec ond Pacific squadron, commanded by Vice Admiral Rojestvensky, was off, cially announced today by the interna- = tional commission of inquiry which sat at Paris to investigate the affair
 Rear Admiral Charles H. Davis, the American representative on the com mission, is of the opinion that the gen. eral result if the findings is favorable to Great Britain, as they sustain the statement of facts as presented by that country. He thinks the decision will have a salutary effect in the in- terest of the general principles of arbi- tration.
 The general impression among those who heard Admiral Fournier president of the commission, read the decision was that it was a compromise. Great Britain's contention that there were no torpedo boats in the vicinity and that Rojestvensl1y was not justified in fir ing, having been approved and that o1 Russia that Rojestvensky acted ac- cording to his belief, even though mis- taken, and that his action did not re- fleet upon his military valor or senti- ments of humanity. likewise having been agreed to.
 The commissioners as whole found that the fishing fleet made no hostile demonstrations and a majority of them that there were no torpedo boats among the fishermen or in the vicinity and that the opening of the fire by Rojestvensky was unjustihed. The commissioners were unanimously of the opinion that Rojestvensky did all that he could personally to prevent the trawlers being fired upon, and on the question of his proceeding without giv- ing assistance to the damaged trawl- CTS, it was agreed that there was such uncertainty concerning danger to the Russian squadron as to warrant Ro- jestvensky continuing his route.

The Nlnsty-nrst HEhlanders Drop In At
Luna Park.

The Ninety.nrst HEhlAnders Drop In At
Luna Park.
The churches Of the greater city had no
reason TO complain last night that Coney
Island had lured their congregations away.
Never in the history OF the great pleasure
resort we there less people In attendance
at the ..eat amusement parks and side
shows on the second day Of the seasons
opening than last night. Rain and threat
eninR weather, with fog and all the delights
Of London. as far as weather was concerned,
scared away the pleasure seekers and the
millions Of electric lights at the seaside
shone only on a few Of the more courageous
and the regulars
About 5 O'Clock in the afternoon there
began to appear little enthusiasm on the
part Of the greater city's pleasure seekers.
Several thousand visitors arrived during
a short spell OF bright sunshine. But the
weather clerk wasn't with the bunch. a
sharp shower at about O'Clock drove
them all to cover and many back to their
homes.
Coney Island on Sunday this season has
no terrors for the crowds-Capt Dooley
having accepted the Rsines law sandwich
as meal enough for a hard wor,S si, man man
laden dinner table, and the flow Of beer Is
constant, plenteous and without police in
reference or supervision.
All the places Of amusement, large and
small, whose shutters were down did a
fair business yesterday, due apparently
10 the desire Of the crowd to see what u
new this year at an early date. Luna Park,
Dreamland and Steeplechase Park we're
the centers Of attraction and large crowds
visited each place. All Coney Island held
last night an apparently optimistio view
Of the situation.
The Ninety-frst Canadian Highlanders
swarrned into Luna Park yesterday after
noon to the number Of ninety-three bare
kneed killed Scotohmen. They were the
invited guests Of Thompson Dundy and
showed their appreciation Of the courtesy
by destroying vast supplies Of Scotch whis-
ky The bands all played Scotch tunes,
the ballyhoo men struggled bravely with a
pronunciation intended to be Ineligible
10 the kilties. and the Highlanders recipro-
Gated by patronizing every show In the
enclosure At O'Clock they were lined
up in front Of the main entrance leading to
the japanese tea gardens while the com-
pany photographer took them. They
left last night for Hamilton, Canada.

followers that the ship brought secret
communications to her and to prove her
assertions, abe told them that when she

Il havin z been determined that the facilities
at Snyder are sufficient Parts OF bodies
are still being found by searching par
ties three and four miles north Of Snyder.
