CHICAGO, June 17.-The committee on

time to the representations of numerous
persons who desire to secure the inser-

Messrs. Hopkins of Illinois, chairman

most radical or all dHtl-iHJuIiStioh PloPo

sional Delegate Andrews of that territory
and Judge Rodey, resident of Porto
Rico. and now United States judge in
Porto Rico, addressed the committee in
support Of the proposition to grant single
statehood to that territory. Mr.. Rodey
said that New Mexico has been kept out
of the Union for twenty-eight years by
the circumstances that in 1880, delegate.
now Senator Elkins, had gone out to
shake hands with Senator Burrows at a
critical moment when the statehood bill
was pending in the House of Representa-
tives. Gov. Curry assured the committee
that If admitted New Mexico would send
to Congress two republican senators and
also republican members of the House.
Committeeman Sloan of Arizona advo-
Gated the admission of that territory as
a state. Representatives of both terri
tories agreed that since the experience of
the last session joint statehood was no
longer to be considered.
A plank for Arizona statehood was pre-
scented by r. +. Sloan of Prescott. a
member of the committee and Perry Ell
lis of Chicago was heard in. favor of a
declaration against interstate shipments
| of prison-made goods, and then came the
public discussion of the injunction ques-
tion

| he said, would force such a condition that
| the maximum tariff could be used only
| for the purpose of retaliation and thus
destroy the real purpose of a maximum
and minimum tariff.
| Representative Serene f. Payne of New
York presented a protest from a number
| of New York business men against curb
| ing the independence of the courts in the
| issuance of injunctions.
Postal Banks Opposed.
The last speaker before the committee
was John l.. Hamilton of illinois. presi-
dent of the American Bankers Associa-
ton. who opposed a plank favoring the
establishment Of postal savings banks
Mr.. Hamilton told the committee that
the bankers of the country believed the
introduction of such banks would be poor
policy; that they would take from 40 tc
90 per cent of the deposits now in state
savings banks and similar institutions
| and would tend to cause still further
| Withdrawals in times of financial panic

functions and Reduction in
Southern Representation.

CHICAGO, June 17.-There was strik-
ing contrast last night between the gaiety
of the crowds in the hotel corridors and
cafes idly and noisily Willing away the
time and the grim struggle in which the
two most important standing committees
were engaged-that on credentials continu-
ing throughout the night The hotels
were scenes of what might be called
harmless riot; singing, cheering crowds in
ceaseless, endless lines passed back and
forth; campaign songs Of old times and
new were sung. and the far corners of
the great buildings rang with cheers for
everybody. from Roosevelt and the ia =
vorite sons down to the most infinitesimal
leader of republican fOrlorn hope.
Everywhere also were the little groups
of wiseacres. laying down political law
and gospel with that Incompatible solem-
nifty which is the unfailing mark of the
rear rank delegate at political con-
vention.
Threshing Out the Disputes.
Meanwhile the real questions imme
in the committees on resolutions and Gre
dentials. The proposed plank in the plat
form relating to the limita ton of use of
! court injunctions in labor controversies
was. of course. the principal bone of con-
tention The committee referred the ques-
ton to a subcommittee, and the subcom-
mittee late in the evening adjourned I'M
| til this morning. AT that time surface
indications pointed to a long and biNer
struggle.
Late in the night, however, it became
| known that a compromise was likely; that
efforts were making to get together on
an Injunction plank fairly acceptable to
all the various elements interested in the
subject Such compromise would re-
| move a factor which not only would have
committee. but, If carried at last to the
| floor of the convention, would have pre-
cipitated struggle, the final outcome of
which it would be difficult to forecast
| for while 1t early became evident that the
majority of the subcommittee was In
sympathy with the views of the national
| a administration on this subject, there was
some doubt whether this was true of the
whole resolutions committee. The bit
| terness which has been displayed on both
sides of the question gave ominous threat
of NO small proportions should the con-
troversy be flung into the convention In
| it's crude form.
Deciding the Contests.
All night the committee on credentials
| plowed through the long line of contests.
| and few were much surprised to find
| that all of the decisions confirmed those
| of the national committee. There was
| much interest In the announcement that
a dissenting report from the defeated mi
nority OF this committee would be present
| ed TO the convention. This seemed much
! less formidable as implying struggle on
