QUARANTINE BILL DOOMED.
Senator Spooner States That Measure
 Cannot Pass Senate.

There is little likelihood Of q na- tional quarantine bill being enacted a, this session of the Fifty.ninth con s:ess for the reason that Senator SPooner, chairman of the conference committee, says it cannot pass the senate and there IS no use to present 1t. This is substantially what Sen ator Spooner said to the Louisiana delegation Tuesday in answer to the query as to why the conference com mittee does not report the quarantine hill.
 The main objection of NIT. Spooner to the present measure is in section :. which, in his judgment, would cause the senate to repudiate the whole bill. In effect section recog- nizes the freedom of interstate traf- f1c provided it does not conflict with the established quarantine regu,a. tions of local communities.
 MT. Spooner wants the proviso eliminated so as to make the author itS of the Marine Hospital corps ab- solute in dealing with yellow fever: in other words, he would take tbe question of quarantine out of (se hands of the state altogether. Sd tion already gives the federal au. thorities more power in the matter of quarantine regulations than tie strict ocnstructionists of the constitution re- gard as compatible with their concep- tion of the riehts of states.
 Another indication that the confer ence committe will not consider the till at this session is the absorbing duties of Mir Hepburn, one of the house conferees on the railroad rate tiil which has been sent to confer ence. Under the stress of work incl dent to this oyershadoWing measure for Mir. Hepburn to give any time to Gasszr
