AFTER A NINE HOUR SESSION

Washington, Feb. s.---After a con-
tinuous sitting of nine hours, the
senate at S:45 o'clock last night,
passed the joint statehood bill As
passed the bill provides for the ad-
mission of the states of Oklahoma
to be composed of Oklahoma
and Indian Territory, and New Mex
leo, according to the present bounda-
ries. with Arizona eliminated.
The long session was characterlz-
ed by exciting incidents and many
surprises. Beginning promptly upon
the converting at IL o'clock, the SEN
ate proceeded to consider the various
amendments which had been sug-
gested by the committee on terrific
ries and which had been passed over.
intoxicating liquors may not be sold
for period of 81 years.
The first surprise of the day came
when the committee accepted Mr.
Foraker's amendment providing for
separate vote by each of the terri
tories of Arizona and New Mexico on
the constitution to be adopted by the
proposed state of Arizona. That pro-
vision had scarcely been made a part
of the bill when Mr.. Bard presented
his amendment. which had been
originally offered by Mr.. Patterson,
and which provided for the admis-
sion of New Mexico as a state with
out the addition of Arizona. This
amendment proved to be the point
around which all the subsequent
proceedings of Importance revolved.
II was at first adopted by a close
vote OF AZ to 40. This vote was ia
ken while the senate was sitting in
committee of the whole. and was re-
versed in the senate proper by the
tie vote of 3S to SO.
Subsequently the senate decided
by vote of 3s to SO to entirely elm
mate New Mexico and Arizona from
the bill. and this result had hardly
been announced when Mr.. Bard. in
slightly changed form. renewed his
proposition for the admission of New
Mexico as a state, and this time the
amendment prevailed by the vote OF
40 to 81.
