STATEHOOD BILL DOOMED.

Unless the house recedes from its po-
sition on the statehood bill, a proceed
ing that now seems most unlikely,
there will be no statehood for Okla
hona and Indian Territory at this ses-
sion of congress. The senate yesterday
decided in advance of the appointment,
by the president of the senate, of con-
ferees on the bill, to stand by its guns
1t will be remembe that Arizona
and New Mexico were eliminated en-
tirely from the bill as it passed the
upper house. Now the house has all
along insisted on admitting Arizona
and New Mexico as one state. thus
forcing on the people of Arizona a
most undesirable union.
There is every indication that the
house conferees will not recede. Rep
resentative Babcock, whose long ex-
perience in congress enables him to
Judge pretty closely as to whether or
not proposed legislation will be enact
ed, predicted in the house on Thurs
day that the sending Of the bill to con-
ference was the last that would be
heard OF it at this session. This, in
deed, was the purpose of the special
rule under which the house disagreed
with the senate amendment and ap-
pointed conferees without taking
vote on the question of concurring
with the senate amendment.
The question as to whether or not
Oklahoma and Indian Territory are en-
titled to the joint statehood they desire
does not now, and never has, entered
into the discussion seriously. Congress
has played politics from the beginning
and played it in a matter Of greatest
importance to many thousands OF
American citizens. Behind all the ad-
verse moves that have been made is
the fear that more Democratic SEN
ators might finds places i'm congress.
Arizona separately would surely send
two Democratic senators. Therefore
Arizona must be coupled with New
Mexico. Oklahoma, settled largely by
citizens Of Missouri and Arkansas,
would be very likely to send Demo-
Gratis.
So. on one pretext or another. the en-
tire proposition must be killed. There
viii be no regret among the people OF
Arizona over the failure there; they
would rather stay out than come I'm
with New Mexico. In Oklahoma and
Indian Territory 1t viii be a great dis
appointment to see the statehood prize.

Tried TO Jump From the Gar.

Overcome by mad desire 10
end her own life, strange young
woman attempted to jump from a
camden Interstate through car last
night while it was running at full
speed just above Ceredo.
The young woman appeared to
be about twenty. three years old
She had been sitting in the forward
part Of the car, when she suddenly
got up and started for the front
door. She had some difficulty in
sliding the door apart and was
assisted by young man who had
been sitting near her. The doors
once opened, she sprang into the
darkness beyond. Only at the last
moment did the motorman, seeing
her intention, catch her by the arm
and 10y supreme effort drag her
back to the platform. There would
have been little chance for her life
had she been successful as the car
was then on the trestle spanning
Twelve Pole river. The girl made
no resistance TO the motormaB and
the car was not stopped. The con-
ductor ran hurriedly to the front
of the car and brought the young
woman back in the car. The girls
action was entirely unnotlced by
the passengers, as it was done so
quick that they did not realize what
her intentions were. Whom she was
brought back in the car and her
dlsheveled appearance noted, it was
supposed that she had been taken
sick. The girl was not heard 10 give
word of explanation. When the
cars stopped in West Huntington
she got off and was seen no more.

West Virginia this year.
The Republicans in Congress
have helped enact the laws which
have made West Virginia so pros
porous. Senator Elkins played a
conspicuous part in it. 1t was he
who secured the tariff on lumber.
1t was he who helped put in dozen
schedules that have helped West
Virginia in her growth. The Con
gressmen helped to do it, too. They
deserve reelection aud the States

Randell by the payment of all taxes
charged or chargeable mp to and in
cluding said year. Later, on June
25, 1896, King filed his answer
claiming to be the owner of the said
Morris grant. The matter was re-
ferred to commissioner in chan
Gerry. Afterwards the case was
heard in court upon the report of
the commissioner and 4 degree en-.
tered which set forth that III. G..
King had fully redeemed said land.
An appeal was taken to the su-
preme court which set forth that
King had the right superior to all
others to redeem said land, but re-
versed and remanded the cause on
general terms.
The case was afterwards removed
to the circuit court of Logan county
and afterwards removed 10 the cir.
cult court of Cabell county, where
King filed an amended bill in which
he offered and asked to pay taxes on
and redeem certain tracts of land
within said 10000 acre grant.
- he cause was then removed to
the circuit court of Marion county
when Henry g. King presented to
the court his petition and Judge
Mason held that much of the land
claimed was no part of the Morris
grant and therefore not subject TO
the sale or redemption of said suit
and not within its scope nor within
the jurisdiction of the court.
Litigation has been going on in
various courts ever since, and at
the last Legislature a bill was passed
which had considerable bearing on
the case and which lessened Kings
chances to WIN.

KING LAND CASE SETTLED.
Brief Outline OF the History of the

III Law Suit.

A conference has been held at
Columbus, Ohio, between Henry G.
King and others at which was con-
cluded compromise OF the htiga-
tion between King, w. NJ. Ritter
Lumber Co., Panther Lumber Co.
and Hiram Nj. Sibley, the latter of
New York, over certain timber
boundaries claimed by King adver-
saries to the parties just mentioned.
Mr.. King, it is understood, was
paid $75, 200 cash, and King relin-
4uished his claim and title to GER
tain tracts of land which he claimed
as part of the 500, 900 acre grant.
The compromise disposes of part
of the litigation known generally as
the King Land Case, and removes
from the case some of Kings most
active and powerful adversaries.
This history of the King land case
began on May 4, 1894, when the
State brought suit in Wyoming
county against Henry G. King and
other persons for the purpose of
selling for the benefit of the school
fund the West Virginia portions of
the Robert Morris 100000 acre
grant which was patented by said
Morris June %, 1895. 1t was al
Legged that the said grant had been
forfeited to the State because Of
non-charging thereof with State
taxes for the five successive years
following the year 1888, in which
year said grant was alleged to have
been redeemed by one Robert E.
