There was no signature of any
kind attached to this letter. The
handwriting was extremely poor and
almost illegible and was written by
the same person who wrote the emo
tice" pinned on the kitchen door
of the Evans home some time back.
One of the things that battles the po-
lice is the ignorance of the person
who writes the letters of Mrs. Cot
tons marriage to Oma Cotton, which
the latter confesses secretly took
place last November. This is one
fact that would lead the police to be-
lieve that Mrs. Cotton is not the au-
thor of the letters, still the opinion
is held by a few that she purposely
gave this impression to prevent sus-
picion from being attaeher to her.

RESULT OF CONFERENCE

This morning at meeting of a
subcommittee of the Board of Char
tiles and the Board of Managers of
the Home of the Friendless, plan
will be drawn up which will be pre-
scented to the County Commissioners
in regard to the location of the Wom-
ems Jail. The meeting will be held
in Knollenberg's store at $3.50.
The crying need of Richmond for
a separate place for the female pris-
oners of the county has caused the
County Commissioners to have plans
drawn up for a women's Jail, but as
yet the question of location has not
been decided. There is moral ques-
ton involved which is calling the at
tention Of the Board of Charities
and this organization is now working
in conjunction with the County Com
missioners, in an attempt to secure
the most suitable place. The Charity
Board, composed of B. F. Wissler,
Miss Eleanor Robinson and Mrs
Beeson, contends that women prison
ers should not be placed in the same
Jail with the men under the care of
the sheriff unless arrangements are
made to secure matron. For this
reason consultation is to be held
with the Home of the Friendless
Board for the purpose Of having the
jail apartments in the Home instead
Of at the County Jail.
The result of the meeting will be
submitted to the County Commits
sioners at their next session and at
the time, it is thought that a location
will be definitely decided upon. An
appropriation will be asked OF that
time and work commenced at once.

MOST DRAMATIC Scene
No Discussion of Statehood Bill
Cannon Proves Himself Friend
: of the Territories

Washington, June l4.-Not in
years has the house of representa-
tives witnessed more dramatic scene
than it Witnessed today, incident to
the adoption of the conference report
on statehood. At the close Of a very
wearisome day, debate on the sun
dry civil bill, geological survey discus
sion occupying the major portion of
the time. Mr.. Hamilton, of Michigan,
chairman of the committee on terri
tories, called up the conference report
on the statehood bill. In anticipation
= of something unusual, most of the
members were in their seats while the
galleries were comfortably filed.
A round of cheers greeted the chair
man of the committee when he moved
the adoption of the report. Earlier
in the day he had endeavored to call
up the report but found that papers
had not reached the house from he
esnate. At that time he stated that he
did no expect any debate, believing
the report would be adopted without
discussion. While there was not dis
cussion on the report itself, a most
unexpected episode ensued,
Mr.. Moon, of Tennessee. ranking
member of the minority on the com
mittee on territories, had made the
statement in relation to the posistiOn
of the Democrats on a compromise
agreed upon in conference.
He was frequently interrupted with
applause, and was then followed by
Marcus a. Smith, delegate from Ari-
2ona, who took occasiosn in guard
ed way to insinuate that there had
been undue influence used in postpon-
ing an agreement.
Smarting under what he believed
to be a direct insinuation against him
Speaker Cannoonimpetuously left the

the chamber, democrats and republic
ans alike participating. Finally or
der was restored and then, measuring
every. word, Cannon said:
"Mr, Speaker: AS member of the
house of representatives, during this
at and all other sessions, | have rep
resented my constituents and acted
for the whole people, according to my
best judgment. The coming into the
union of Oklahoma and Indian Ter
ritory meets with my approval If |

would infinitely prefer to see Okla
homa and Indian Territory come IN
separately, with an aggregate popula-
tion of two and half million, with
four senator's, rather than to see New
Mexico and Arizona come in together

them come in singly with about 300,-
900 population and four senators
My views are not secrets; | have
sought to the best of my belief to
voice them. You have the result be-
fore you. Although every man in In

will be formed under this enabling
act ~
Smith, of Arizona, then arose.

this moment. There is no separate
vote there. There is a separate vote.

much for that ! do not propose to

not the honorable gentleman. delegate
from Arizona. Mr.. Smith made the
remark that there was high penalty
for the governor of that territory to
attempt to influence legislation, or for
one legislative body or its members

in order to secure other legislation, if
| correctly state him.
"That remark could have but one
motive and one meaning and that

house has sought to affect legislation
