THE STATEHOOD BILL DEAD.
Failure Of the Conferees to Reach an
Agreement.

The statehood bill died at $50 o'clock last
night. At that time the conferees on the
bill parted. not to meet again during the
Fifty-eighth Congress. The last confer
ence. like many others. resulted in no
agreement between the Senate and House
on the questions involved in the bills Of the
two Houses
There has been a persistent effort on the
part or the Senate cOnferees to get dis
agreement reported to the two Houses that
the matter might again become a question
to be dealt with on the Senate and House
floors. This move the House conferees
persistently combated and finally made
the positive declaration that no disagree
ment report would be signed
The plan of the House leaders on the
statehood question for the next Congress
has been outlined. The first day of the
next session. Mr.. Hamilton, chairman Of
the House committee on territories, will in
troduce the statehood bill with provisions
Nike those which passed the House. He will
call his committee together to report the
bill, which action will be taken without pre-
liminary hearings. Within two weeks It Is
expected the bill will be on the House call
endar. A special rule will be forthcoming
to put 1t through without protracted dis
cussion. and the question then will be again
before the Senate. 1t is believed that with
long session before It the bill can be
passed in the Senate
