JOINT BILL WILL BE
REPORTED SOON
This Means Joint Statehood Or
None At All.
1T is ARIZONA THE GREAT"

Washington Dec. S. 5.-Delegate w. II.
Andrews had a long consultation today with
Chairman Hamilton of the House commit
tecon territories, concerning the bill provid-
ing Tor joint statehood for New Mexico and
Arizona.
Chairman Hamilton insisted on a Joint
statehood bill which will be substantially
like the one which passed the House year
ago and which will contain some amend
ments, which, it is thought, will make it
more satisfactory to the people of TIE two
territories.
Republican leaders in the S e nate and
House predict that the omnibus bill year
ago, with some amendments and creating
Oklahoma and Irdian Territory as one state
and New Mexico and Arizona as one state,
will be passed.

Big CROWD OUT
THIS MORNING
MUCH INTEREST WAS SHOWN IN
POLICE COURT PROCEEDINGS 4
AT To-DAYs SESSION.

The city Offices presented an ami.
mated appearance this morning, all the
spectators looking for something, ex.
citing in the gambling raid made at
an early hour Sunday morning at the
place on Monroe street conducted by
Clarence Abbott. Nothing was doing
in this line but Buster Black did not
allow them to go to their respective
haunts without a little fun and he
furnished II.
Officer Fleming, who has charge of
the prisoners In the court room, was
taking little nap and Buster walked
out the door. A few seconds later his
presence was missed and the recap
ture made. He went down the steps
at good gait and up the street at a
better one. AT the Bank Of Fairmont
corner he was caught and brought
back. When his turn came to answer
the charge of drunkenness he pleaded
guilty and was soaked 5000 and ten
days in jail. 1t didn't listen good to
Willie and he told them so.
Frank Coates was drunk and guilty
and was fined $500. He was pinched
on the Sabbath by Officer Gould.
Berry Menear was in for swearing
on the streets. He fessed up and was
fined $500. Morris got him.
H. A. Busch was another drunk who
pleaded guilty and was fined $500.
case that promised little inter.
est was postponed until tomorrow
morning. Charlie Jones is a negro
who claims to have been assaulted
Saturday morning by man named
Cochran, one Of the proprietors of the
Commercial hotel in the first ward.
Jones was locked up on a charge of
disorderly conduct whereas he says
he was not at all to blame and hopes
to prove SO when he collects his wit
nesses. According to his story he was
sent to the hotel by a young woman
who roomed there to get her trunk,
as she was leaving the place: He
says that without any provocation
Cochran assaulted him, striking him
on the head with cane and then
drawing a gun AMI threatening to blow
his brains out. The other side will be
heard in the morning.

QUITE A CROWD OF THE LIGHT Z
FINGERED GENTRY.

The gambling room said to be run
by Clarence Abbott in the rear OF his
saloon and boarding house on Monroe
street was raided by Chief Morgan
and Assistant Bartholow at 1880 Sun.
day morning. Some twenty men
were found in the place but few
made their escape by way OF rear
door In all sixteen were taken In
custody by the officers. Two men,
Abbott and p. s. Summers, were
charged with conducting the rooms
and were required to put up $4,000
cash for their appearance before the
mayor and the fourteen gamblers and
spectators were assessed $500 eacn.
The house men put up theirs all right
but claimed to be short OF funds and
unable to put up for their customers.
Half OF the number were fortunate
enough to have that amount and saved
themselves from session in the city
lookup. The other half had to go.
All succeeded in getting the money
some time Sunday during the day and
evening except one young fellow who
has only been here short time. He
was kept in durance vile until the
trouble was settled this morning.
Abbott came to the mayors office
this morning with Attorneys Morgan
and Cornwell and after conference
with the mayor, city solicitor and
chief of policeft was decided to plead
guilty provided the fine was reduced
The mayor thought the amount re-
CURED for forfeits was more than he
cared to assess for fines so he re.
duced 1t to $500 for house men and
$3.50 for the others. The man who
spent the interval in Jail was released
and his fine paid.
