TACOMA. Oct "A sensation has
been caused at Dawson. Alaska. by the
finding of gold in the craw of a wild

The duck was killed by John Lee
while it was en- route to Dawson from

gold exists on 1londilze river bottom. il
is considered hardly plentiful enough

ON THE
STATEHOOD BILL
Minority Members Protest
Against Making C0nCeS-
SionS to House.
DESERTED BY BEVERIDGE
SCHEME WILL BE FOUGHT IN
THE SENATE.

Washington, June 2.-ConEerees on
the statehood bill at 3 O'clock today
signed a report covering all points m
dispute. but exception was taken by tie
Democrats 10 the agreement in relation
10 Arizona and New Mexico. The vote
was unanimous in regard TO the pc
visions relating to the admission Of
Oklahoma and Indian TERRITORY. The
exceptions taken by Senator Patterson
and Representative Moon. the managers
on the part Of the minority, indicate
that the agreement may yet encounter
shoals In the senate. where a poll shows
that without Democratic votes the re-
port cannot be adopted.
Led by Foraker.
The opposition to the admission Of
New Mexico and Arizona as one state
has been led from the first by Senator
Foraker. BY the aid Of few Republi-
cans and practically the entire Demo-
cratic strength he has succeeded In
preventing an agreement on any meas
ure that would not give to the people
Of either territory the right, at a S2G-
Cial election, to reject joint statehood.
By the agreement signed today the peO-
pie of these territories can vote separ-
ateIy on the question of statehood at
the regular election on November 6, at
which time territorial officers and afT1-
GERS of the proposed new state are
elected and d vote upon the constitution
heretofore adopted, IS also to be had.
Doomed to Defeat.
When the conference report was pre-
scented to the senate today. Senator
Foraker declared that t was not &C
ceDtable to him and he would do his
utmost to defeat it. Senator Bailey de
ClaTed that the agreement would not
be accepted by the Democrats. The in
dicatiOus are, therefore, that the report
viii preCipitate another sharp contest
in the senate.
1t WAS stated today that L poll Of the
senate shows - Republican votes and
one Democratic vote for the confer
ence report, which means two more
votes would have to be obtained before
the report can be adopted. Senator
Foraker believes that the list Of Re
UublicanS said to favor the agreement
is not as large as stated by friends of
the original joint statehood proposition

HORRIBLE DEATH.

NEW YORK, June 22.--After more
than "a hours of pumping and digging
the bodies of the two men trapped by a
hiow out in one of the Pennsylvania
Company's East River tunnels were re-
covered yesterday. Instead of being
blown out into the river through the
break at the base Of the tunnel as had
been supposed, they were caught by the
thrush OF soft mud and water in the
lower chamber of the shelf after the
air pressure had found vent and were
there found in postures indicating that
they had strangled by inches.
Their feet were fast IN the heavy mud
and there were indications that they
had made desperate efforts to release
themselves Both bodies were found In
standing postureA

SEATTLE SPIRIT.
If Seattle Could Give Sroo,ooo For Bat
tleship, What Can Astoria Do
For Hotel?

When Seattle wanted Moran Brothers,
shipbuilding yard to get the government
contract for the battleship Nebraska,
the people of that live city subscribed a
very large sum, either 100000 or $780,
900 as subsidy to secure that work.
Subsidies are not given for the estab-
lishment Of any business except in the
case where a city wants something II
hasn't got. and is badly in need of; and
Astoria is badly in need of a fine
hotel to attract the wealthy. pleasure
seeker and investor. All owners of suit
able hotel sites are requested to leave a
go day option on such sites with Mr..
Frank L. Parker on or before next
Tuesday.
