expected TO take an active part in
behalf Of the two remaining territories
Arizona and New Mexico. 1t is
reasonable to suppose that the re
publican majority viii be active in
support of the bill to admit New

ty has sufficient majority in the house
to carry out any legislation that may
be decided upon. there is less than the
required two-thirds majority in the
senate to put through those republi-
can policies which may be advocated
by the president.
The democratic majority is in po-
sition to demand and insist upon the
same treatment for Arizona which is
accorded to New Mexico If the re
publican program is to admit New
Mexico then it may be expected that
the democratic minority will offer an
amendment to the majority program
which will include the admission of
democratic Arizona, on the same
terms and under the same conditions,

doubtedly be able to muster sufficient
strength to force the adoption of the
amendment. Either this. or it is safe
to predict at this time that there will
be no statehood legislation either for
Arizona or New Mexico
With the session of congress less

noticeable lack of enthusiasm in Ari.
iona on the statehood question. No
doubt the last words of the president
ing that in his opinion
zona or New Mexico would be admit.
ted at this session, has had something
to do with cooling the ardor of the
enthusiastic statehood advocates, and
the lack Of enthusiasm so far among
the federal appointees in Arizona may
also be taken as sign to show which
way the wind is blowing. But. the
fact remains. that Arizona is nearer
the desired boon of single statehood
than at any other time in its past
history, and this much can be taken
for granted. that when New Mexico
IS admitted, whether it be at the pres
ent session of congress, or the next
that the democratic minority in con
gress can be depended upon to see

ROBBED Of ROLL
John Franzen of Orion, Steered
Into Mirror Alley Saloon and
Relieved of S25.
DICE GAME Is WORKED FIRST
Money Is Snatched From His Hand
Creates Disturbance Over Loss
and Police Are Called.

John Franzen of Orion reported to
the police last night that he had been
robbed of $25 in the Mirror alley sa-
loon, in the Looney building ON Second
avenue, yesterday afternoon.
Franzers story is that he came to
town yesterday 70 do some shopping.
and that he finished his business about
. O'Clock. and with three hours to wait
till train time, was sauntering up Sec
ond avenue, when two young men ap-
preached him. and in seeming frfendli-
ness invited him TO have drink. He
accepted the invitation, and the pair
steered the Orion man into the Mirror.
Suggest Dice Game.
One of the men suggested a dice
game, and the Orion visitor agreed,
and reached in his pocket for his roll.
He had scarcely drawn it from his
| pocket before it was snatched by one
| of the young men with whom he had
entered the place The other remain
| ed. and endeavored to console the
young man on his loss The young
man sympathized deeply with Mr..
F'ranzen. and expressed much regret
that such a thing should have oc-
Cured.
The Orion man was accompanied to
| the Burlington depot by the young
man, and some time before train time.
the second of the pair of buncoars said
goodbye to Mr.. FranZen, but with more
ceremony than the first. He hoped.
| he said, that the Orion man would re
turn to Rock Island and that they
would meet again.
| Police Called; Hear Story.
The smooth tonsued man gone. Mr.
| Franzens anger rose rapidly. and he
became much aroused over his. loss
and the manner III which he had been
relieved of his money. He returned
to the Looney building. and made
quite a disturbance over the matter
and finally hangerS-on at the place
summoned the police. Captain BurE
took charge Of FranZen. who at 'onct
said he had been robbed. and wher
Iasked where. replied that the theft hac
lbeen committed in the very building
where the officer found him.

Statement in Trial.
POINTS RAISED BY JUDGE
AS to Alleged False Pretenses of De-
PENDANT involved in case-Jury
is Finally Completed.

When the jury to try the case
against John Looney. indicted with
William H. Cation and c. w. Neal for
conspiracy to extort $4,000 from the
Rock Island Brewing company was
completed in the circuit court this af-
ternoon, Judge Gest excused the jury
from the court room. and brought to
the attention of the attorneys certain
technical points involved in the case,
as brought to his attention by the
opening statements of the attorneys
to the jury.
The point raised by Judge Gest, who
i'll presenting the proposition stated
that the issues would certainly be
raised during the progress of the case.
and might better be heard first, and
further that in presenting them he
sought information to govern him dur
ing the trial. was this:
Were false pretenses such as the law

representations of the defendant to
the Rock Island Brewing company.
In his opening statement Mr.. Scots

was concerned.
The question of the court was as IA
whether the representations if falls

Another point was raised i'm this dis
cussion, involving the discrepancy be
tween the allegation in the indictment
which states the persons from whom
