DEBATE ON FREIGHT RATE BILL
Feature Of the Discussion Is the
Speech of Mr.. Mccall.

Washington, Feb. S.-The feature OF
the debate in the house Tuesday on
the freight rate bill was the speech of
Mr.. Mccall (Mass.), who, in opposing
the proposed legislation, declared that
1t was not to be imagined that the SUI
preme court would stand between the
government and it's victim, following
that utterance with the statement that
the courts usually reflected the policy
of the party in power.
The views of the speakers as to leg
islation needed were many and varied,
but with the exception of Mr.. Mccall
and Mr.. Sibley of Pennsylvania, all
were agreed that the time had arrived
for the granting of relief. The names
Of William J. Bryan and President
Roosevelt figured prominently in the
discussion, the allegation being made
from the Democratic side of the
chamber that the president in his re-
cent message to congress on the sub.
ject of railway rate legislation only
reiterated the views of Mr.. Bryan and
the declaration of the Democratic
party in three national platforms.

DISCOURAGE TALK OF PEACE.
Officials N Favor OF War But Russian
People Despair of Victory.

Officials N Favor OF War But Russian
People Despair of Victory.
st. Petersburg, Feb. S.-The renewed
peace talk resulting from the visit of
Ambassador Cassini and Minister
Takahira to the state department at
Washington and the conferences Of
Ambassador Durand and Mr. Spring
Rice, first secretary of the British am
bassy at st. Petersburg, with the presi-
dent on Sunday, finds not the slightest
echo in official and diplomatic circles
at st. Petersburg, where Emperor
Nicholas oft repeated declaration that
the war must be carried to a satisfac-
tory conclusion remains the keynote
OF the situation. Considerable salts
faction is felt at the Washington tele-
gram stating that assurances have
been given by Ambassador Cassini
that Sir Mortimer Durand's and Mr..
Spr1ng-Rlce's presence at the White
House was in no way connected with
the termination of the war. The Wis
its of Count Cassini and Minister Ia
kahira to Secretary Hay are thought
to have been connected with Chinese
neutrality. The prevailing opinion
among diplomats in St. Petersburg is
that Japan and Russia would choose
France rather than the United States
when the time arrives to discuss terms
of peace. IT. is difficult it not impossi-
Bile to tell when that time will come.
The present trend of public and
press opinion in Russia appears to be
setting in favor of peace. The news
papers no longer proclaim the necessi-
ty of continuing the war at all costs.
The Novoe Vremya bluntly re-
marks:
eve go on buying evening editions
hoping to hear news of Russian sue
cess, but. little or nothing is done to
assure it."
The war never has been, in the full
est sense of the word, popular.
Special Importance is placed on the
mission entrusted to. NJ. Admisabasa,
the director of the committee on the
far East, which is believed to have
gone thfther to report to the emperor
the possibility of reaching a compro-
mise with Japan without material
to Russia's interests.

prises. Beginning promptly upon the
converting at 10 o'clock the senate

amendments which had been suggest
ed by the committee on territories and
which had been passed over. One Of
the first Of these taken up was the
amendment prohibiting the sale OF in
toxicating liquors in what is now In
dian Territory for the next ten years,
and this was displaced by a substitute
offered by Mr.. Gallinger which ex-
tended the amendment to the entire
state for q period OF twenty-one years,
and this was adopted.
First Surprise Of the Day.
The first surprise Of the day came
when the committee accepted Mr..
Foraker's amendment providing for q
separate vote by each Of the terrific
ries Of New Mexico and Arizona on the
constitution to be adopted BY the pro-
posed state Of Arizona.
G That provision had scarcely been
made Q part of the bill when Mr.. Bard

offered by Mr.. Patterson, which pro-
vided for the admission Of New Mex

Arizona Eliminated.

Arizona Eliminated.
Subsequently the senate decided by
a vote of 3S to SO to entirely eliminate
New Mexico and Arizona from the bill
and this result had hardly been an
nounced when Mr.. Bard, in slightly
changed form, renewed his PROPOSE
ton for the admission of New Mexico
as a state and this time the amend
ment prevailed by the vote of 40 to 81.
One of the affirmative votes, was, how
ever, cast by Mr.. Beverage, in charge
of the bill for the purpose of moving
the reconsideration of the vote. He
was prompt in entering this motion as
soon as the result was announced, but
the motion was laid upon the table by
a vote Of 80 to SO. The effect was to
eliminate Arizona from the bill and to
make one state out of New Mexico
and another out of Oklahoma and In
dian Territory. In this form the bill
passed. -.,-

ed in the committee of the whole gave

The Mormon question also received
an airing during the day. Mr.. Bur-
rows announced his opposition to the
provision for the separate admission
of New Mexico and stated 1t was due
to the practice Of polygamy in that
territory to such an extent that he con-
sidered 1t unwise to take the admins
tration away from the federal authori-
