THE STATEHOOD FIGHT.
Personal Clash in Meeting of Com
nittee ON Territories.

Washington, Jan. 17.-While outwardly there
IS no sign Of change in the Statehood situation
IN the House. general impression prevails that
the hearings the bill, which were recently
reopened. viii be allowed to continue indefinite
ly, and that there will be no disposition to hurry
a report to the House on the bill by the Commit
tee on Territories.
For two hours to-day the Committee on Terri
tories and the delegation Of the AntiJoint State
hood League of Arizona engaged in a "sparring
contest" which eliminated in a personal clash
between Representative Powers. Of Maine, and
Delegate Smith, OF Arizona, which ended with an
apology by Mr.. Smith. The trouble came while R.
A Morrison, of Prescott Ariz., was addressing the
committee. Chairman Hamilton had asked Mr..
Morrison many questions about inadequate tax
alton Of mines and railroads in Arizona. TO which
Mr. Smith objected When Mr.. Powers began
questioning Mr.. Morrison TO the proportion
of Mexican population in Arizona and New
Mexico Mr. Smith again objected
Mr. Powers resented the interruption. and
exclaimed: 'T understand fully the sensitiveness
of this delegation concerning these questions
know whom they represent and all about
them"
Il have seen enough of this. and denounce
the charge false" Mr.. Smith retorted.
F~You may irnpugn the motives Of the chair
man but when you impugn my motives snail
resist" Mr. Powers replied. Il shall ask all the
questions I want to-"
The committee room was in an uproar. and
after Chairman Hamilton had called for order
and asked the members to be more calm Mr..
Smith offered an apology, saying that perhaps
he was mistaken but that Mr.. Powerss ques-
tons struck him as inspired by parusansh1p
and not by desire for information.
On account Of the frequent Interruptions by
members of the committee and promptlngs ana
interruptions by members Of the Arizona deIega-
ton Mr.. Morrison unable to make an eX-
tended argument. The feeling was so intense
and the hearing so unsatisfactory that the CON-
177ittee decided that tomorrow morning all

arguments before they subjected 10 Ques-
