MUCH TALK OVER THE
DEFEAT OF STATEHOOD

Albany, n. Y, March 2.-Before

Mexico, explained that the dispatches
of Saturday relative to the dS<eat of
the statehood bill had evidently con-
fused his name with that of his faith

mer governor of New Mexico, had
made representations to the senate
committee on Territories that New
Mexico was unfit for statehood.

erman, nor can | say whether the des-
patch from him was authentic. | as

the men call at his hotel, DR.. Howard
told the story of the plot to Captain of
Detectives Anderson. Detectives tTeel
and Bunner were stationed behind a
screen in the doctors apartments. and
after listening to enough of the con-
vcrsation TO convince them that a
grave crime was contemplated, they
emerged from their hiding place and
arrested Dandy and O'Loane.
The detectives detailed on the case
stated that the woman alleged to be
Mrs. OLoane was the decoy used TO

CHINESE
REVEAL EVIDENCE WHICH WILL
LEAD TO ARRESTS.
Frightened CeIestials Tell of System
Used to SmugaIe Them Into
This Country.

New York, March Through the
confessions made by Moy Lee and
Wong Sieu, two Chinese, who were
captured on Sunday as they we're be-
ing smuggled ashore from Hamburg
American liner, federal authorities be-
lieye they have obtained strong, evi-
dence of well organized system for
smuggling Chinese into this country.
For many months. agents of the de-
partment OF commerce and labor
have been keeping an eye on the
steamer service between this port and
the West Indies, but with little avail
until Lorenzo Cardo. an Italian store
keeper on the HambuTg-American
liner PrinZ Sigismund. was arrested
in the act of taking the two China
men ashore. After an examination
before Commissioner Shields yester-
for further hearing Saturday. while
officials turned their attention to the
frightened Celestials.
Through interpreters. Moy Lee and
Wong Sieu said that they had come
from China by way of Canada. first
going to Montreal. thence to this city.
They felt so insecure that they later
took passage for Kingston. Jamaica,
with the idea of being smuggled into
this country.
On arrival at Kingston, the China
men said that they were met by an
other Chinaman and agent of the sys-
TEN who cared for them, and assisted
them on board the Prinz SlgiSmund
when she stopped at Kingston They
said that the Italian storokeeper hid
them in the storeroom. and that their
names were not recorded on the ship 8
manifest. When the steamer reached
Savilla, Colombia they were put
ashore, where they waited until the
Siglsmund again made the port before
sailing for New York. They were
smuggled again into the storeroom
where they we're concealed, they said
by the Italian until the steamer ar
rived at this port
By the aid of the alleged conics-
sion of the Chinese, the authorities
think that they can establish a chain
, of evidence which will lead TO many
arrests. some on the Canadian border
! and others as far west as the Pacific
( coast.

CASE
Interstate Commerce
Commission Declares
Rate to Spokane Unjust

Washington, March 2.-The Inter
state commerce commission today de-
cided the two points in the complaint
filed by the city of Spokane against
the Northern Pacific, the Great North
crn and the Union Pacific, which were:
First-That the rates from eastern
destinations TO Spokane were higher
than to Seattle, more distant point.
Second-That the rates to Spokane
were Inherently unreasonable.
On the first point, defendants main
tanned that water competition COM
PEELED them to charge the rates in et-
feet to Seattle, and that therefore they
might charge higher rate to Spokane
without violating the long and short
haul provision, or without discrimin-
ating against Spokane under the law.
The commission sustains the claim
Of the defendants in this respect, and
holds that the rates TO Spokane, al
though higher than to Seattle, are not
unlawful.
On the second point, the commission
sustains the claim of the petitioner
and holds that tho rates from east
ern destinations 10 Spokane are un-
Just and unreasonable, 1t reduces
class rates from St Paul to Spokane
16 2-3 per cent and makes substan-
TALLY the same reduction from Chi
cago to Spokane. Rates east Of Chi
cago are not dealt with.
The decision applied In principle to
all commodities and TO all interior
points. must work a revolution In
rates from eastern points OF origin
to all interior transcontinental ter
ritory, and in that view, 1t is one oil
the most far-reachlng decisions ever
rendered by the commission.
