May CHANGE
STATEHOOD BILL
The Fight is on Uniting Ari-
zOna and New Mexico.

The joint statehood bill will con-
tinue to be the principal topic Of dis
sion in the senate during the present
week.
The pure food bill will remain in the
background for the present, not be-
cause the friends Of that measure
$naye abandoned 1t, but because they
consider that It's chances will be inn
proved by not pressing for immediate
consideration. They have been as
sured by the Republican leaders that
the bill shall have trsU place ON the
calendar, aside from appropriation
bills, after the statehood bill is dis
posed, and therefore they will not
anGag0nize the statehood bill for the
present, II at all.
Discussion OF the statehood question
begins today with a speech by Sena-
tor Morgan anu he will be followed
by other opposing senators. The pres
ent plan Of the opposition is 70 keep
the discussion going until some OF
the Appropriation bills are reported
and IL becomes necessary TO take
them up, or II this IS postponed TOO
long, 70 displace the bill with the
pure food bill. Failing in all these
expeidents, they Will probably seek a
compromise.
The only real fight is against the
uniting OF Arizona and New Mexico
and there is talk Of eliminating those
territories entirely from the state
hood proposition. IL is believed il
this were done, the bill for the con-
solidation OF Oklahoma and Indian
Territory would pass. Thus far there
has peen no conference OF opposing
factions on the subject, and probably
there will be little done TO change the
present statues 50 long as the leaders
are anxious TO keep other matters ia
sac background, as appears to be the
case at present.

OAKLAND, Feb. 14.-Several matters
Of import to the State developed dur
ing the trip of two United States Sen
ators-elect and ore Representative
elect to Oakland to-day. The three
prominent gentlemen were United
States Senator-elect Frank p Flint of
California, United states Senator-elect
George S. Nixon of Nevada and Con-
gressman-elect Duncan McKinlay Of
the Second District of California. The
occasion WIS the tour of inspection
that Mr. Flint had promised to make
CT Oakland harbor, and Oakland was
fortunate indeed that Senator Nixon

lay were able to accompany him.
The matters of Importance that de-
yeloped We're that Senator Flint, al
though from the southern section of
the State, has become an ardent and
enthusiastic supporter of the reclama-
tion of the Sacramento Valley over
flowed lands; that he thinks that this
is the greatest work which the State
or Federal governments can possibly
accomplish for California; that he
wants Federal buildings for Los An
geles. San Diego and Eureka, and that
he believes Oakland harbor will have
tc be developed in order to help San
francisco stand off the activity Of Sc
attic in the fight for trans-Pacific COM
merce. Congressman Mckinlay voiced
similar sentiments.
The party that accompanied the dis
tinguished visitors around the bay was
small and was composed only of gentle
men who are able to furnish the infor-
nation that the legislators might want.
The reception committee went to San
Francisco early and met their guests
and then conducted them to the water
front where the cutter Golden Gate. in
charge of Captain ]. c. Cantwell,
brought them to Oakland harbor. The
committee consisted of John Mitchell.

was the neighbor of the Koehns. Sun
day morning she was attracted to Mrs.
Koehn, who was running across the
street excitedly. Mrs. Kruger testified
as follows:
When ] went across the street ! met Mrs.
Koehn her mother and her brother. I asked
what was TIE matter, and Mrs. KOehn said:
Tie went into the closet and saw he couldn I
get out and he shot himself

Mrs. Koehn looked at me and repeated:
Yes he did: he shot himself
Il don't believe he did,' I again declared
Mrs. Koehn kept staring at me and suddenly
yes it was l. I shot him for my honor
and protection.

before the shooting between Koehn and
his father-in-law, the older man max

There were frequent quarrels between
KOehn and his wife, said aged Mrs.
Christina Koehn, the young mans
mother.
