ELKINS DECLARES HE IS HEP
BURN BILLS BEST FRIEND.
WOULD AMEND BILL TO SAVE IT
Opinions Vary as to Whether 1t Con-
fers Authority to Pass on Rates as
Between Communities - Senators
Indicate Their Support.
Monday, April 2.

Washington. The statehood bill
was discussed again in conference,
and some time was consumed in go
ing over the minor amendments, but
nothing of substantial interest was
accomplished. 1t now looks like sew
eral weeks may be taken up in per-
functory consideration of the bill with
out disposing of the vital questions in
VOWED. 1t is generally expected that
the house and senate conferees Will
finally agree to recommend the adop-
ton of the Foraker amendment, which
provides that the question OF joint
statehood for Arizona and New Next
CO shall be referred to the people of
those territories, but it is understood
that so far this matter has not been
formally discussed. Members say
they are convinced that the Foraker
amendment will be accepted by both
houses if the conferees agree upon
it.
Early in the session Representative
Miller, of Kansas, introduced bill to
increase the pension of an old Kan
sas veteran, a namesake of his, living
at Alma. Mr.. Miller made special eff
forts to get action on the bill, which
provided for an increase of his pen
sion from $12 to $24 month. At last
he succeeded in getting favorable
report on the bill, and word reached
him that the applicant had died.
1T simply shows" said the Kansas
congressman. how important it is to
act quickly in these cases of old veter-
ans, if legislation is to do them any
good"
In a communication to the house
Secretary Root asks for $4,000, to
enable this government to participate
in the second international peace con-
gress. In his letter Secretary Root
saws no time has been set for the con-
ference. but it may be held next fall.
The legislation prompted by the re-
cent wreck of the steamship Valencia
off the Straits of Fuca has been au-
thorized to be reported favorably by
the house committee on interstate and
foreign commerce The bill reported
has passed the senate. 1t appropri-
ates 10000 for an ocean-going life
saving tug and for the establishment
of a life station at Neah bay.
The Foster bill to permit Chinese
students, merchants and travellers to
enter this country was the subject of
a hearing today by the house commit
tee on foreign affairs. Witnesses told
of the decay of American business
since the boycott, the Standard Oil
Company being among the sufferers.
The Lacey bill, prohibiting the use
of automatic shotguns in the terri
tories of the United States, which bill
was designed for the protection of
game, was laid on the table by the
committee on territories, thus render
ing further action on the bill i'm
probable.
The boundary line between Texas
and Mexico, which has been the sub
ject of treaty negotiations since 1S4S,
will be considered by the senate COM
mittee on foreign relations on
Wednesday next.

Nature has a way of destroying a

that 1t contains no nourishment.
