ENULATED WESTERN BANDITS.
Perpetrator of Many Startling Rob-
berries in Private Residences in New
York City Makes a Full Confession.

New York, February 6.-Christo.
pher Smyth, Of ,"Sandrock,' who is
locked up at police headquarters
charged with being the perpetrator of
many startling robberies in private
residences within the past few weeks,
made a confession to Acting Inspector
O'Brien. of the detective bureau, to-
day, according to a statement made
by the acting inspector today.
Smyth declared that he had not
worked for plumber. but merely for
the enjoyment he got out of the ex-
element incident to the r~obberies. He
confessed hat he had been interested
in the exploits Of Western bandits and
that he a tried to emulate their ex-
ampleS. The character of "RafIes, >
he declared, had also given him ideas,
ana he had attempted to follow out
these examples. He vowed that it
would have been the easiest thing in
the world for the police to. have cap
tured him On various occasions. but
that there a been no attempt made
to follow him after he had left the
houses he entered except in n in
stance. He declared c~ontidentially that
in several instances he could have Sc
cured diamonds and other jewels, had
he so chosen, and was sure that he
could have gone to any bank in the
city and obtained whatever he de-
manded.
One of the crimes attributed to him
that of entering the house of Gen. An
~nr ~ AHnrao1y rvhnr tho r1raro1 v
young son fired on the burglar, he de-
clared he was innocent of. In his
dexterity with weapons, he boosted
that he could hit a 50-cent piece at so
yards ninety times out of q hundred.
Smyth denied absolutely" that he has
had any confederates. and declares he
has been working alone. He told with
gusto Of calling on the telephone an
evening paper which had offered a re-
ward for his arrest.

BEVERTDGE ENDS DEBATE.
Advocates Creation of Two New States
Out OF the Remaining -Four Terri
tories
Yours very truly,
SOL BEAR & co.

Washington, February 6.-The long
drawn out general debate on the bill
creating two states out of the terri
tories of Oklahoma and Indian Territory
and Arizona and New Mexico was con-
Guided today with a speech by Mr.. Bev-
eridge, which consumed the greater
part Of the days session. He reviewed
the principal arguments in opposition:
to the bill, giving especial attention TO
the proposition to unite Arizona and
New Mexico. He spoke for almost
burst of applause from the galleries.
Previous to Mr.. Beveridge's speech
Mr.. Foraker spoke in support of his
amendment to eliminate New Mexico
and Arizona from the bill.
No other important business was
transacted. though the House managers
presented the House replication to
Judge Swayne's answer in the impeach-
ment trial. This ceremony lasted ten
minutes and at it's conclusion the our.
adjourned until Friday.
When the legislative session was re
sumed Mr.. Beveridge advocated the
passage of the bill as reported by the
committee on territories which pro-
vioes for the creating of two states out
OF the four remaining territories.
Mr.. Beveridge. based his advocacy OF
the bill upon the theory that Congress
mas absolute control OF the creation of
new states, and in celebrating that idea
he said the interests of the nation as d
whole were paramount to the wishes Of
the people OF the territories. He de-
clared that the constitution gave Con-
gress power to impose any condition in
such legislation.
Bills were passed authorizing the con-
veyance of a small tract of lan In
ST. Augustine, Fla, to h city for
school purposes; authorizing terms OF
federal court at Selma, Ala.
The senate adjourned until tomor-
row.
