STATEHOOD BILL
CAUSES FRICTION
CAN BURTON AND MITCHELL
CAST THEIR VOTES?
Friends of the Measure Leaving No
Stone Unturned to Get It
Passed in Its En-
trety
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
WASHINGTON Feb. 4.-Senators
who want the statehood bill to pass
without amendment in the form which
it came from the territories committee
claim now to be hopeful of success.
They have been working very hard, but
quietly, in the last few days to get
enough senators pledged to the bill to
put it through. They evidently believe
they will succeed if they can induce
the opposition to consent to an arrange
ment whereby the two senators who
are under a legal cloud will be per-
mitted to vote or pair on the bill
These senators are Burton of Kan
sas, who has been convicted of accept
ing fees for legal work before the
postoffice departmep and MlJchell Of
Oregon, under Indictment for alleged
completely in the land frauds in his
state They are said to be favorable
to the statehood bill as it stands The
friends of the measure are, therefore,
anxious that the senate should waive
the bill or pair in favor of it.
With these votes, in addition to 9TH
ers said to be pledged to the bill, It's
friends claim a total of forty-four
votes as certain, with one or two others
in sight that can be had. If they are
needed, to pass the measure without
amendment.
The opponents of the bill say that
Burton and Mitchell cannot be per-
mitted to vote or pair on the measure,
and threaten, If an attempt is made, to
raise the question of their right to
hold their seats. 1t is believed the
movement to permit them to vote will
not be pushed.
Another point on which the senator's
who want the bill to pass unamended
are working industriously is the orr
der of amendments. If they have not
votes enough to pass the bin without
amendment 1t is important to control
the order in which the amendments
shall be taken up. They are working
to have the first vote taken on Senator
Bard's amendment excluding Arizona
and New Mexico from the operations
OF the bill. This Is believed to be the
amendment which win command most
votes. II II fails, II is hoped that tha
opposition to the bill will disintegrate

Should Franklin call off the threat

fight this afternoon starting from its

The ascension last Sunday was more
in the nature of a trying out for the

shue and Captain Baldwin were well
pleased with the little sky-yacht's be-

winter experimenting and every time
the Arrow is sent up to soar among
the clouds they learn something.
Captain Baldwin says: I'VE are

HINDOO SEER CHARGED
WITH SHOOTING PIANIST
Rivals Fight and One of the Combat
ants is Wounded by
Bullets

F. Rubel, a Hindoo seer, who dis
closes the future of all who cross his
hand with anything from a silver dime
to dollar, became enraged at palm
ist named Harry Clement, and during
the fight shot the latter three times in
the left leg above the knee.
Both men tell practically the same
story of the affair. According to their
statements Harry and A. r. Clement
conduct a palmistry establishment on
the corner Of Seventh street and Grand
avenue, almost directly across the
street from the white robed Indian
prince. For some time bad blood has
shown itself between the proprietors
of the rival establishments and the i'll
feeling reached climax last hight.
Rubel crossed the street with slow
and pompus step. his white robes trail
ing majestically On reaching the es-
tablishment of the Clements he found
the younger brother, A. r., who is a
semi-inyalid. alone. The dark skinned
seer Is accused of heaping abuse upon
his weaker rival, and then swept back
to his own tent in all his grandeur.
Before an hour had elapsed Harry
Clement arrived on the scene, and af-
ter he had heard the story from his
brother he fastened to the tent of his
enemy. Now Harry Clement makes up
what his brother lacks in size, and the
seer of the white robes had no desire
to have his neck broken, so he armed
himself with "a revolver. Harry pro-
ceeded to admonish his rival and or
dered him to keep away from the vi
cinity of the Clement tent.
The revolver emboldened Rubel and
he said some uncomplimentary things,
whereupon Clement struck him. In
stantly Rubel drew his weapon. but
before he could fire Harry seized his
wrist and attempted to wrench the re-
volver from him. but Rubel fired four
times, three of the shots taking effect.
Clements wounds We're dressed at the
receiving hospital and then he was sent
TO the California hospital Rubel was
arrested and locked up.

FIRE COMMISSION
HEARS CHARGES
FIGHTING COSTS FIREMEN
THEIR POSITIONS
Practice of Selling Warrants to Money
Lenders Condemned by Officials.
Hosemen Promoted

The fire commission yesterday morn
ing was a sort of clearing house for
troubles among the men that were too
complicated for Chief Strohm to
straighten out. Complaints about
fighting and drunkenness, and other
ugly charges were disposed of. Mayor
McAleer acted in the capacity of
magistrate and handed out several
packages of fatherly advice to the err
ing ones.
The first case heard was one wherein
w. S. Lane. driver of engine No. l.,
was accused of fighting and miscon-
duct by Captain c. E. Grotzinger. Lane
was given a hearing. He made no
effort to deny the charges, but said
there were extenuating circumstances.
Lane gave an account of the trouble
he had with a citizen, the fireman ad-
mitting that he struck the man. "Of
course l have a temper said Lane,
"and l am proud of it," He had been
before the former fire commission on
thought best to end his connection with
the service; he was discharged. Lane
himself hastened this result. The COM
mission intended to take the case un-
der advisement. but he insisted on an
immediate decision. His demand was
compiled with.
The next case was that OF
charges against G. II. Grdley
and W. Mccormick for fighting.
Mccormick seemed to be the aggressor
and the commission took his case un-
der advisement. The charges against
Gridley were dismissed. Gridley said
Mccormick bit him.
Joseph Sepulveda. driver of engine
No 10 was accused of being intoxi-
Gated while on duty, His case was
soon disposed of, He pleaded guilty
and asked for clemency. He has been
a member of the department for four
teen years and bears a good reputation.
Sepulveda was given a reprimand and
the charges were dismissed.
Complaint was made that number
Of men i'm the department are in The

INDIAN EDUCATION
President Insists on Their Right to
Choose Their Schools

By Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.-President
Roosevelt has sent letter to Secre-
tary Hitchcock on the subject of the
authority of granting contracts for the
education of Indians in denominational
schools.
The president says that, inasmuch as
the legal authority exists to grant the
request of the Indians, unquestionably
they are entitled by moral right to have
their moneys used to educate their
children at the schools they choose.
The president directs that the interior
department continue the practice un-
less congress directs otherwise or the
courts hold that the decision of the
department of justice to this effect IS
wrong.
The president also urges the passage
of the Lacey bill authorizing the all
lotment of annuities in severalty to
the Indians in the same way as their
land is allotted.

PHILIPPINE DISCUSSION
Secretary Taft Argues in Favor oi
Tariff Revision

BY Associated Press
WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.-Secretary
Taft was heard by the house commit
tee on ways and means today in favor
of a revision of the Philippine tariff.
Schedules were presented, having been
prepared by the Philippine commission
and subsequently submitted to confer
ence between the commission and the
secretary of war. Col Edwards, chief
of the insular bureau of the war de-
partment, preceded Secretary Taft in
discussing the question. He said the
present Philippine tariff might be con-
sidered an lSh per cent tariff, while the
proposed revision would make it about
a 20 per cent tariff. The revision, how
ever. could not be considered as an in
crease all along the line, as many arti-
cles had been changed from a specific
duty to an ad Yalorem duty. and in
these cases reductions generally had
been made. Notable instances of de-
creases are i'm machinery.
The necessity for the revision was
stated by Secretary Taft to be two-fold
first to admit at lower duty to the
islands articles necessary TO their de-
velopment and, second, the production
Of an increased revenue. The tariff
applies alike to all countries.

| through tariff duties, which, being an
| indirect tax, was not onerous.
Referring to the treaty between the
United States and Spain, ceding the
islands TO this government, provision
of which makes each country share
alike in any preferential tariff rate, Mr..
Williams of Mississippi observed that
in his opinion the supreme court, if it
should ever pass on this treaty, would
declare il unconstitutional. In view of
this belief, he suggested that those arti-
cles which the Philippines buy in this
country, which he said were very few
in number, should be placed on the free
list.
On answering further questions by
Mr.. Clark Secretary Taft said the ex-
penses of the Philippines government
were much greater under American
than under Spanish rule A consider
able portion of the revenue under Spain
was derived from poll tax, collected
alike on men, women and children. A
tariff was also imposed.
Addiction to Opium Deplored
Secretary Taft called attention to the
opium schedule in the proposed tariff
measure, and said it was an important
matter to the islands, The duty on
opium is raised about 25 per cent, and
provision made for complete control of
the drug by the Philippines commission.
At present the annual revenue from the
drug in the islands is $35O00O and the
secretary said he was afraid Filipinos
