derstOOd exists among a small cOterie
Of Senators.
Tnis opposition, it has been reported.
Is more a personal one against Delesats
Andrews Of New Mexico and Delegate
Smith Of Arizona than to the bill itself.
It is reported that one or two Senator'S
have personal grievances against these
men, and their opposition is based on
the assumption tina if the States are
admitted Andrews and Smith viii be
elected to the uppe. chamber. There
fore It Is feared that. with the end
OF the session near, even a small fill
buster can prevent the bill passing. not
withstanding the fact that opposition
IN the House has been conquered and
that President Roosevelt heartily
wishes to welcome the new States.
Governor Curry OF New Mexico is IN
the city. and has been IN conference
frequently with Andrews, vino has
labored increasingly TO get the measure
through at this session, and TO whose
