The Statehood Bnn This Week.

This week will decide the fate of the
 statehood bill, probably. It is likely that vote will be taken on next Satur-
 day. the 4th, on each of the amend ments proposed, and then upon the bill
 as amended. This is the suggestion of l Senator Foraker. who has bitterly Op- posed the measure in it's present form. Senator Beveridge, who has charge of the bill, is reported to be somewhat nettIed by the refusa! of some sixteen republicans to accept the bill as re- ported, and to have announced that he
 did not care what became of it; that
 other important questions were press ing upon the attention of the senate.
 and while it might be difficult to pass the bill as it stands this session, he felt no doubt that it would readily pass in the next congress. He express ed himself, however. as not disinclin- ed to let the bill go to a vote, with
 the amendments, on the date suggest
 ed by Senator Foraker. But no agree ment to that effect has been reported
 at this writing.
 The Associated Press dispatch in yesterdays Republican. quoting Sena-
 tor Bailey to the effect that the bill
 would pass. was significant. Senator Bailey meant, of course, that the bill
 would pass in an an ended form. He
 is one of the most uncompromising op- ponents of the scheme to join Arizona
 and New Mexico together, and he
 would not agree to take vote unless | convinced that some of the modifying amendments will be adopted.
 The consensus of opinion is that the
 Foraker amendment, providing that Arizona and New Mexico shall vote
 separately on the ratification and adop-
 tion of the constitution of the proposed state, will be adopted.
 It makes a great deal of difference as
 to the order in which the proposed amendments are voted on. The Oppon- 1 ents of the bill have asked the priv
 ilege of designating the order in which | the senate shall consider the amend
 ments, and if their request Is granted | they will have a tactical advantage. According to the programme suggest | ed, the first vote taken will be on an
 amendment proposed by Senator Pat | terson of Colorado. This amendment | proposes to strike Arizona from the | bill. The next vote will be on the
 amendment proposed by Senator Bard i of California, striking out both Arizona
 and New Mexico. The next will be
 on the Foraker amendment, and this
 latter amendment is most likely to
 command the full strength of the op- ! ponents of the bill

Policeman Gets Damages.

When a Baltimore policeman held up and arrested a wealthy woman and her automobile driver for travelling too rapidly the woman called the police man thief and a puppy" He in stituted a suit for damages and, after a trial of four days. he was awarded a verdict of S4.OOO to heal the wound to his good name. Of course the woman will appeal and seek a new trial on the ground of excessive damages.
 If every policeman who is called hard names by persons he puts under ar rest, and if verdicts can be secured every time, there would be no end of lawsuits. In the course of their duties policemen are subjected to much violent, wordy abuse from prisoners, but they consider such tirades as merely the outburst of either anger or liquor and pay no attention to them. A policeman has to swallow" consider able. and he is not so thin-skinned as to take as personal the oUtpOurings Of vituperation from the mouths of angry prisoners. Policeman have first of all to cultivate a spirit of humility and wisdom and they are certainly never injured by an outbreak of epithets. The Baltimore incident is of interest be- cause of the social standing" of the woman who has been mulcted, but we fancy that the verdict was rather eX- cessive and no doubt suggested to a certain extent through the impression that the woman was able to pay the amount awarded.

It is only natural that the celebrat- ed show places of other countries will be appreciated more at their true worth if the traveller has first famll- iarized himself with his own great country. Besides, it must be little embarrassing for an American in Flu rope to be interrogated by an interest ed foreigner regarding Pike's Peak or Niagara Falls. and to be able to give him no more information than he already possesses.

Miles Is Fixed.

The army appropriation bill has passed. and General Miles feels reIiev- ed. The clause providing that retired army officers could not receive more than a majors pay while in the ser vice of the national guard was strick- en out. and Miles will draw the pay of a lieutenant general while acting as adjutant-generaI of the Massachu- setts militia. Quite erroneously, the action of the house in adopting the restricting clause was reported to have been inspired by the administration. President Roosevelt took no interest in the question, and the fact is that while many republican members favored the proposed law, believing that a majors pay, with the compensation received from the national guard would be suf- fcient, the real animus against Miles was developed by the southern demo- crats m congress. The southern peo- pie have never forgiven Miles for placing Jeff Davis in chains, and the southern congressman voted almost solidIy for the amendment.
 It was their action which led John Sharp Williams of Mississippi to ten der his resignation as leader of the democratic party in congress. He could not agree with his southern col leagues, and announced his belief that General Miles was not only a good democrat, but the greatest living sol

Human Torso on Cleveland Dump.

A human torso. including the thorax and
shoulders, but devoid of head, arms and
legs. was discovered by children on one of
the city dumps at Cleveland Saturday. The
identity of the person is shrouded in mys-
terry. There was not shred OF clothing
attached to the torso. 1t was turned over
to the police and removed to the morgue.
The most striking discovery was bullet
wound in the right side, which the coroner
thinks caused death. The postmorte;n
showed that the body was that of a muir
dered man. 1t also developed that the body
had been embalrned. The theory thar the
body had been cut up in a medical school
and then discarded thence hauled to the
dump" was secuted by the coroner The
body showed curious marks of mutilation
been pulled off cut rudely. The coroner
holds that it Is the portion of a body of a
man and that his weight was probably 40
pounds AS to his age it was not possible
