THE STATEHOOD BILL.
May Be Defeated at This Session of
Congress,

Compliance with the action of the repub-
lican members of the House Of Representa-
tives yesterday afternoon will be the price
of further progress on the statehood bill.
There were thirty-three republicans at
that conference who voted against the reso-
luton authorizing the Speaker of the
House to bring in rule providing
that the statehood bill shall go to
conference. Sixteen of those republicans
could join their forces with the democratic
minority in the House and defeat this ac-
ton of the conference and the action of
the caucus of April Is. 1904, which favored
the statehood bill as passed by the House.
But these thirty-three republicans will not
get chance to defeat the republican ma
jority of the House.
Even should the Speaker bring in the rule
afternoon. sixteen republicans could vote
with the democratic minority to defeat the
adoption of that rule. The bill then being
reported to the House from the COMMITTEES
on territories, with recommendation for a
conference between the House and Senate
might meet with a vote to defeat such ac-
ton. Then a motion would be in order to
concur with the Senate amendment and
statehood would be accomplished in the
form that the democrats have been adyo-
eating.
The claim is made that there are suffi-
Gent western republicans who now favor
the Senate's action to carry out the plan
of concurring with the Senate amendments.
But Speaker Cannon knows the facts ON
that point as well as anyone, and he has
practically said In his fatherly way:
Nay. nay, my boys. II you want state.
hood give me assurances that you will sup
port the order providing that this bill shah
go to conference. If you can get your way

When the House of Representatives con-
vened today a bill extending the time for
the construction of the highway bridge
across the Potomac was passed. Mr.. Gros-
venor chairman of the House committee On
merchant marine and fisheries, called up

ures were approved by the board of in
spectors, by the organized commercial bod
les Of the whole country and favOrably re-
ported by the committee on merchant ma
rne and fisheries and all of them were
aimed to amend and improve the inspection
service laws
Objection was made by Mr.. Wynn (Cal
to consideration of the bill relating to the
crews of vessels and Mr.. Sherley Qky) OBJ
jected to consideration of the bill affecting
the salary system of inspectors. The other
steamboat inspection bills were passed
Mr.. Wynn withdrew his objection to con-
slderation of the bill relating to the COM
plement of crews, when Mr.. Livernash
(Cal) offered an amendment providing that
40 per cent of the crew of vessel shall be
effective hands and defining the character
of seamen.
Mr.. Livernasb, in support of the amend
ment. SAID it was desired by the Seamen's
Union.
Mr. Grosvenor said the same amendment
had been unanimously voted down by the
committee, and mat If it prevailed not a
vessel would be able to leave San Fran
cisco.
Replying to Mr.. Livernash. Mr. Grosvenor
said the Seamen'S organization had not been
denied hearing before the committee
Ihe amendment was voted down and the

RETURN OF THE NEWPORT.
Admiral Harrington Reports Her Ar
rival at Norfolk.

Admiral Harrington. commanding the
navy yard. Norfolk. has notified the Navy
Department by telegraph of the arrival at
that yard yesterday afternoon of the gun
boat Newport disabled by the loss of her
tail shaft and propeller as result of her
experience in the recent severe storm off
the coast of Hatteras. Ice-coated and
storm-b beaten, the small gun boat was sight
ed off Cape Henry Thursday afternoon by
the British steamship Inca and was lowed
from there to the Norfolk navy yard yes
terday by the naval tugs Wahneta and
Siren.
The officers of the Newport state that on
the morning of January 30, at 3 o'clock,
they lost their propeller. They do not
know how the accident happened Sail was
made at once. although the rigging was
covered with ice, and the vessel headed for
Hampton Roads. She was then thirty-fiye
miles southeast of Cape Hatteras For
three days she rode out one of the worst
storms, the officers say. they ever encoun-
tered There was imminent peril that,
without the ability to use her engines, she
would be driven on the shoals off Hatteras
However. she again made sail. and when
within few miles of the capes she en-
eountered another storm which drove her
100 miles TO sea.
During this storm Seaman Leekie was
washed overheard from the head BOOM BY
the heroic work of~the Hfeboat crew under
CoXswain Shield, the man was rescued.

sacrifice of thoroughfare, 9Th street.

ing of 10th street conditions to Az street
would give gain to a stub street at the
expense of main thoroughfare.

gate OF advantages lie with the proposed
plan as a substitute for the adopted one
The citizens state that the proposed plan. is
not an eleventh hour one. This is abso-
sidered, together with numerous others, be-
fore the approved plan was adopted, and

TYPICAL CASE OF DISTRESS.
Immediate Relief Furnished by the
Associated Charities.

A typical case Of distress noted by the
authorities gives point to the appeals and
the list of contributions published by the
Associated Charities and the Citizens Re-
lief Association. One of the eight division
agents Of the Associated Charities recently
found family where the mother was sick
in bed and the father out Of work. The
entire family, including three small chill
dren. were living in one small, crowded
room. One of the window panes was gone
entirely. There was no fire In the house.
The food supplies also were entirely ex-
hausted, and members of the family were
hungry. Groceries and coal were supplied
Immediately, and the man was given work,
by which he paid for these supplies A
nurse of the Instructive Visiting Nurse So
ciety was called upon to minister to the
sick woman. and efforts are being made to
ind permanent employment for the man.
Mr.. CorcOran Thorn, chairman of the
finance committee of the Citizens Relief
Association, is making special personal eff
forts to secure the amount still needed for
the relief work of the association, and he
is meeting with good deal of practical
encouragement. The following contribu-
lions, which have been sent to Mr.. John F.
Wilkins, treasurer of the association, indi-
cate that the society is gradually securing
the support which it needs:
George H Dana, So; r. L. Pendleton,
$3.50; NJ. e. O.. 81; Elizabeth Coudert. 50;

For the Associated Charities Mr.. John
Joy Edson treasurer. acknowledges the
receipt of generous contributions, which
have been sent either to the general office
at 81 G street. or to Mr.. EdsGn's place of
business in the Washington Loan and Trust
building. One of the business firms of the
city, which has only a branch office in
Washington, their central office being To-
Gated in st. Louis, has set a precedent for
other similar firms by securing permission
from the central Office for contribution to
be made to the Associated Charities by the
local branch. The finance committee eX-
press the hope that other firms similarly
situated will arrange to have contributions
made by their Washington offices to the
charity work of the city.

Mr. Cullom antagonized several senators.
who expressed a desire to transact other
business. He said it was especially desira-
BILE that the consideration of the arbitration

accused of violating and other documents
bearing upon the case. Included among
these were Judge Swayne's certificates of
expenses and his receipts for the money
paid to him at the rate of $40 day while
holding court in Texas.
Mr.. Bailey suggested that as there was
an agreement between the House managers
penses of the judge, there was nothing left
to be done but for the Senate to determine
whether the act complained was violation
of the law.
Mr.. Olmsted replied that there was no
confession on the part of the respondent
and insisted that testimony was necessary
on that point.
The first witness called was Payne w.
Chase, who. in 1900, was clerk in hotel
at Tyler, Tex. He was first given a posi-
ton at the president pro tempores desk
but, as he could not be distinctly heard
from that place, he was located in the CEN
ter of the chamber. and. standing with his
back to the presiding officer, made his
statement regarding Judge Swayne's ex-
penses while holding court in Texas
The next witness called was Mrs. Susan
l.. Downs of Waco. Tex. who testified on
the same subject. Mrs. Downs spoke from
the presiding officers desk.
Neither Mr.. Chase nor Mrs. Downs was
crosS-eXamined
Mr.. Higgins asked for an attachment to
compel the attendance of Louis Paquet of
New Orleans as witness.
There being no other witnesses present
the Senate, as court, adjourned at $40
pm. and the Senate Immediately went into
executive session.
