New VeilineS and Wraps,
Novelties In Materials.
xovEL WRAP IN pEAu DE SOLE.

-nOSe nIIle wraps or the t1rOW-On order are the acme of style at the southern French resorts. Many of them approach the dolman in cut, and of such kind is the illustration. The back Is semifitting. the loose and floating sleeves of the cape or dolman order, and the fronts left entirely loose, hanging with out break from throat to hem. Black lisse is pleated, edged with a yellowisn valenciennes. and posed over some what coarse broderie anglaise in ecru batiste. This clever combination is used on the fronts and sleeves. and rows of a handsome black silk braid are hber- ally used for further trimming effect.
 THE NEWEST IN CHIFFON VEIL
 INGS.
 The chiffon veil is really good stand- by for the woman whose expenditures for those dainty, little items of the toilet little. but somewhat costly-is lim- ited. Of these the latest is the made veil, in very sheer chiffon which has. nevertheless. sufficient body to 1t to keep 1t from getting sleazy and crum- pied after one or two wearings. The depth Is usually about IS inches, and the length yard and a quarter. so that they may be worn with quite goodly- sized hat. The end and both sides of the back are embroidered in running chain stitch pattern. the edge being scalloped and thiclSly button-hoed to give some stability to the sheer fabric.
 REGENT AUTO VEIL.
 The veils for auto wear are to be seen in all the costume colorings. including all of the popular raspberry and grenat shades. as well as the more staple browns and greens. navies and blacks. A large embroidered coin spot is one of the most recent developments in these, sometimes in a matching and sometimes in a contrasting color. The best of them are two and two-and-a-half yards long, some of them running even to three yards in length, this making a very comfortable neck scarf as we'll as a veil for use when the stormy winds do blow All four edges of the veil are hemstitched: and the top is shirred to an elastic band that Is fastened around the crown of the hat. a second elastic shirring encrcling the throat and mak- ing the veil cover up the entire head. This serves as a protection to the ears. and the coiffure as well as to the hat and face: and in the sheer qualities is sufficiently transparent not to interfere in the least with sight and ventilation.

MORRISON IN FAUST
VETERAN ACTOR APPEARS IN THIS CITY NEXT WEDNES-
 DAY EVENING.
His Coming a Notable EVent-Pro- duction of Faust by His Company an Elaborate Venture-Morrison Only Returned to Stage.

Lewis Morrison will present his fla nous characterization of Mephisto on next Wednesday evening in this city in his elaborate scenic production of Faust" For twenty seasons he has played this part, until the names of Faust and Morrison are almost syn onymous, so closely has he adhered to his own dramatized version of Goethe's story of Faust and Margue- rite. It may be said that in all it's long career MT. Morrison's Faust" has never been surpassed in the num- OCT and quality of the company, the brilliancy of the electrical effects, or the beauty of the scenery.
 GoeChe's stoy of Faust" in its dram atized form has been presented twen- .ty seasons, of thirty-five weeks each, 5y Lewis Morrison, making the iiaIii- Der Of performances MT. Morrison has given of Mephisto slightly in excess of five thousand. T/e constant repeti- ton of this one part wearied the ac- tor, and he determined two years ago to retire for temporary rest to his California home. The retirement heightened to two years, and all ef forts to obtain his return was un- availing. Apparently his climatic and social surroundings yielded a sufti- ciency of pleasure and recreation, and having been fortunate enough to ac- quire a comfortable fortune he was content to leave the field to others.
 On a recent trip to New York, how ever, Jules Murry, his manager, offer ed strong inducements in the shape of the finest new scenery, choristers, electrical effects and costumes ever devised for Faust" if Lewis Morri- son himself would consent to re-as- sume the part of Mephisto, which he made famous all over the world. Art ists, costumers, electricians and me chanics were interviewed. Lewis Morrison, indifferent at first. became interested, then enthusiastic, and fin ally consented. No expense was spar ed and this seasons new Faust" has the most elaborate eidipment ever provided for any star

Phoenix, Feb. 16.-The session of the legislature, in both House and Council, were productive of no results of importance today.
 The bullion tax bills were referred to the committee on corporations, of which Anderson is chairman. No defi- nite line on what the committee is likely to do, however, has yet been se- cured.
 Among the provisions of the Kruger bill the direct tax issue is contained in provisions for a levy of ten cents an ounce on gold and one mill a pound on copper. The levy proposed on sil- yer is four mills per ounce, and on lead four mills per hundred pounds.
 The Ranger bill and the Bark cleo. tion law revision bill were both played with, but nothing accomplished in the nNays9t reaching an understanding re- garding eitNeF. The Cobb bill fixing the ssalaris# Of county recorders at 5000, an1AAalf fees for searching rec ords, was 80 discussed.
 The WiEHh bill providing for a bull lion taxisSe Seausing more interest than any measure proposed at this session of the Legislature. The bill provides for the assessment of mines and mill sites at not less than s5 per acre, the tax to be estimated the same as any other real estate. It provides for tax ing the gross output of mines, bullion from ores, tailings and mineral bear. lng raaterial--of whatever -chzraeseI- also the gross value of ores or tailings sent out of the territory for reduction The bill provides that on the last day of each month the management of the mines or shelter shall furnish to the assessor a statement of the production of the mine for that month In the event of the failure to make such statement the assessor is empowered to make a personal investigation and demand permission to examine the Tee ords, for which he shall charge the sum of S10. and mileage at five cents permile. These charges will be add

ed to the tax. That the business of the mines may not be impeded by the operation of the law, owners will be allowed to furnish security for the tax, and their products may then be shipped out of the territory. There ois penal clause attached to the bill providing that an evasion of the law is punishable by fine not less than the amount of the taxes or for not less than six months or more than two years in the penitentiary. raise statements as to the output of the mine may be punished under the stat utes relating to perjury.
 The bill has many supporters in the House, and also many who will fight it to the bitter end. The Maricopa county contingent will fight for the passage of them -easuaszogs theAgyonnd- that Maricopa county at present pays one-third of the territorial taxes. and there is no mining of importance in the county. Timmons, of Yuma. has declared himself to be against the measure, as has MT. Hull. Kruger. of Maricopa, and Wilson, of Pima, will lead the supporters of the measure. At this stage in the game it is diff. cult to predict what will be the out come, as both sides claim they have sufficient votes pledged to carry their point. [
 The Ranger bill is having a hard struggiss It was Asferred to the con- rifstee on ways and means. and it will take a majority of votes to get it out. The bill is at present in the hands of Mir Bernard, who has no serious in- tention of reporting it, unless a ma. jority of the Council make it necessa- ry.
 The Superior Court bill is also hay ing a hard time. If has been lost for several days, and has been a sub ject of great mental worry to MT. Will son, it's sponsor and introducer The bill has finally been located, and it is probable that it will be considered in committee of the whole in a few days.

DANGER IN GASOLINE
HAD STRONG ADMINISTRATION
 IN THE CITY YESTERDAY. A BAD FIRE.
Narrowly AVerted i, Heart of 5usi- ness District-Gasoline Ignited by Fire i7 Oil Stove Turns Room Into Furnace.

The great danger in the use of gas oline in the near presence of fire was again demonstrated yesterday, when a disa 5trous blaze was narrowly avert ed in the heart of the business center of the town.
 The fire occurred about 1 o'clock in the afternoon in a room over Schwartz Bros. store. The cause was ignition of gas from gasoline with which Mrs John Fredericks was cleaning a piece of wearing apparel. The ignition was occasioned by the presence in the room where the gasoline was being used of a lighted oil stove. Until an expanse of flame suddenly filled one end of the room Mrs. Fredericks had no thought of danger.
 The flame instantly attached to cur tajns and pOrtiers in the room, and in minute they were burning fiercely. Fortunately lodger in the house pass ing through the corridor noticed the flame at the moment it broke out He ran onto the street with a lusty yell of fire that resounded through the block, and brought the chemical en- zine from the fire house in less than two minutes from the time the alarm was given. Before the firemen reach ed the room a couple of fire extin- guishers, brought from buildings ad- jacent to mat in which the fire was, had been gotten up stairs and put at work. When the firemen got in the blaze was supposed to be practically extinguished, but the chemical hose had scarcely been brought into the room before a smoldering heap burst into hot flame that but for the pres ence of the hose on the instant would undoubtedly have speedily made a fire that could not have been successfully combatted in the building.
 The furnishings in the room where the fire occurred were either destroy ed or badly damaged. They were ex- pensive, and the blaze of less than ten minutes duration made a loss in the one room of couple of hundred dollars. Water and chemicals which found their way through the ceiling of Schawrtz Bros. store room occasioned trifling damage there.

In the Senate.

washington, Feb, f5-asi,i. from two hours spent in routine business to- day, the Senate gave it's entire atten- tion to the Swayne impeachment trial. Two hours and a half of the time giv- en to that case was spent behind clos ed doors, considering the admissibili- ty of a statement made by Judge Swayne before the committee of the House of Representatives. The point was argued at length by a number of lawyers of the Senate. It involved consideration of a statute O. 1862, which provides that statement made by a witness called before a congress against him in criminal proceeding in a court.

To Continue Fight.

Washington, Feb. 16-James J. Hill. president of the Great Northern Railway, arrived in Washington to- day as much opposed to rate legisla. Cion as ever He would not discuss the details of the pending measure, but he did express himself as unalter- lon of any kind.
 What do you think of the Esch- , Townsend bill?" was asked. T do not think 1t will hurt any of the railroad properties in which I am interested" said he. And believ- ing that have not studied it very carefully. What 1 wish to particular y emphasize in this matter is the danger to general business of attempt ing to force the general principle of government supervision of rates and other railroad business.
 When the Federal Government un- dertakes to spread it's power over pri- vate business for the purpose of regu- lation or anything else it simply means the destruction of individual enterprise. This is a very critical time to try experiments with the busi- ness of this country. It means much. not only to the railroad investors themselves, but to all branches of commerce and industry"
 Do you see any chance for the passage of the House rate bill by the Senate?"
 q am told that the friends of such Legislation are expressing the hope that the Senate will do something af- ter aii That may be possible.
 From person knowledge do not know, but let it come. So much the sooner will it be found by those at . tempting to force such bill that it is not safe proceeding for the legiti- mate business interests of the coun- t try. Further than this, do not care to discuss the details of any pending legislation affecting the railroads.' Mir. Hills continued attitude of hos tility to the presidents proposition is accepted here tonight as indicating that it will not be possible to get any 1. of the great railroad presidents 10 ac- quiesce in railroad rate legislation. which has for it's object increased power for the Interstate Commerce Commission.
 Mir. Hill had brief conference with several public men today, among them Secretary Shaw and Senator Kean of New Jersey. His presence in Washington is taken to mean that the railroads propose to keep up the fight till the end of the session

Washington, Feb. 16.-President Roosevelts message, transmitting to the Senate the new Dominican proto- col of an agreement providing for the collection and disbursement by the U. S. of customs revenues of San Domin- go, for the adjustment of all obiiga- tions of that government, was today made public by order of the Senate in executive session.
 The document includes the new agreement as well as the original pro tocol and the award of the commis- sion of arbitration for the settlement of claims for the San Domingo Im- provement Co, under which agents of the U. s. are already collecting reve- nues at certain of the ports of the Dominican government.
 Few documents that have come to the Senate in relation to any of the South or Central American or West India republics have attracted so much attention. Because of the con- troversy that has arisen as to the rights of the executive to enter into treaty arrangement with any for eign government without the advice and consent of the Senate, extraordin- ary interest has been aroused. The message of the president today out lined the policy of the administration in relation to the Monroe doctrine. holding that it demanded that this government take charge of the chs- toms of American states when Il IS manifest that they are unable to main tain their own integrity.
 In addition to the presidents dis cussion of the Monroe Doctrine in the case of the San Domingo protocol, he made specific declaration of its appli- cation, in that respect furnishing an unusual feature in treaty making.
 The declaration occurs in a para graph which recites that the govern ment of the United States views "any attempt on the part of the govern ments outside of this hemisphere to oppress the destiny of the Dominican Republic as manifestation of un- friendly disposition toward the United States"
