While the constitutional convention did not accomplish much yester- day, the committees laid the foundation for great deal of business and an- nOunced as the program for today what in all probability will be the most at tractive of the session.
 The propositions for the separate submission of both the statewide pro hibition and the equal suffrage amend ments to the constitution will be con sidered in the committee of the whole this morning.
 The committee on separate submis- sion yesterday afternoon returned re- ports on both, recommending that they do not pass. The members of the ma jority. signing these reports are Chair man Wills, and Messrs. Keegan and Tovrea. In each case, Messrs. Webb and Franklin submitted a minority re- report.
 The convention is at fault in crowd ing all this interest into a single day. One of the propositions should have been set for one day and after an in terval of the usual dull proceedings of the convention the other ought to have been put forward as a relief.
 The convention is now far in that stage where the chief aim is to keep things out of the constitution rather than to get things into it. The sitting out process by the committees has been in progress for some time. but every day it is becoming more marked. Nearly all the measures reported yesterday were recommended for indefinite postpone ment
 But in one case the committee was oVerruled and the committee of the whole agreed upon the Keegan minor offender proposition which had been marked by the judiciary committee for burial.

 Tt was stated to the court that the combination had been dissolved and this was one of the considerations on which the court let the defendants go merely on fine. It also was stated that the combination in it's existence had increased the wages of glass that the Ombination in it's existence the directors minutes disclosed, the adoption of one resolution increasing wages 12h per cent. When this was carried out did not appear, but at all events, the combination earned about 400 per cent. profit on it's capital stock during the year of it's existence, and the increase of 12K per cent. in wages can hardly justify a reduction of 30 per cent. in wages upon the dis solution of the combination.
 If the rumOred action should prove to be substantiated by fact, it would indicate the very mistaken leniency on the part of the court imposing sen tence, which it is hoped will not be followed on any other. similar occa- sin"

TIMES GRAND JURY
 HEARS LABOR EDITOR
He Had Criticized That Body and the
 District Attorney.

Los Angeles, Nov. 16-Stanley Will son, labor leader and editor, and c. M Fielder. organizer of the Barbers' Un- ion, were before the special grand jury Investigating the Times explosion to- day. Wilson, it is understood. was asked what warrant he had for pub fishing an article in his paper, the of ficial organ of organized labor in this section, attacking the good faith of the jury and berating District Attor- ney John D. Fredericks for appointing Earl Rogers special deputy attoreny to assist in the investigation.
 The editor was on the stand more than an hour and it is understood that Fielder and Rogers had a tilt

CONSUL COMPLAINS.
Chinese Official Alleges Discrimination
 Against His People.

San Francisco. Nov. 16.-Verbal com plaint was lodged today with the au- thorities at the Angel Island immigra- tiOn station, alleging discrimination against Chinese as compared with Jap anese and people of other natiOnalities passed through the department. The protest followed a visit to the station of the Chinese consul-general, Ii Wung Few, and a committee from the Chinese six companies of this city. They charged that Japanese and HindoOs ad- mitted through the station and exam ined there are treated better in every way than the Chinese The consul said he would so notify his government. The immigration officials in charge say there is no discrimination.

more practical benefit would follow that exercise of the convention's pow CTS than their employment in the pres ent direction.
 The reporter is sure that MT. Olpey would not feel that he had been in jured by the complained-of editorial; he would understand the spirit in which it was written; he would understand it as MT Webb does and as every other member of the convention does except one
 That one is MT Jones of MaricOpa, who seemed to think that it was the product of spite. With characteristic littleness and malignant narrowness he saw the motive for it. MT. Jones be- lieved it was inspired by former head of the Arizona railway commission who resented the complaint of MT. Olney 10 the convention rather than to the com mission.
 As a matter of fact, the gentleman whom MT Jones had in mind was not aware of the conditions at Stafford. He had never heard of the complaint. He was not on that day and is not now in the city.
 The Minor Offenders Bill.
 This car shortage business having been disposed of the convention went into the committee of the whole with Mir Wood in the chair. The committee on executive had rec commended the indefinite postpone ment of proposition 80 relative to of ficers, chosen and appointive. on the ground that that matter had already been covered in other measures.
 The next measure was proposition l39 providing that minor offenders

Mexico City, Nov. 16.--RevolutiOn- ary movement qualifications through out at least twelve states. have just been nipped in the bud through the vigilance of the federal authorities.
 The fact became known today. The movement has been attributed to Francisco l. Madero. erstwhile can didate for the presidency in opposi ton to Diaz, and Ricardo Flores Magon, a revolutiOnist who served a prison sentence in Florence. Ari zona. recently for violtion of the American neutrality laws.

COOK COUNTY ELECTION.
Even the Lone Republican May Lose
 His Good Job.

Chicago. Nov. 16-The discovery of an error of 1000 in figuring the total vote of c. l.. Rankin. democratic candi- date for probate judge, may rob the re- publican party of its single victory in the election in Cook county.
 The addition of the 1000 to MT Ran kin's total gave him lead over Pro bate Judge Charles S. Cutting of 766 votes Thus far in the official canvass Cutting has gained only 715 votes, fail- ling to overcome Rankin's lead.

PERSONAL PRIVILEGE.
This Papers Suggestion Not Received
 in a Fraternal Spirit.

After the morning prayer of the chaplain had put the members into a proper spiritual frame and the reading of the minutes had further rendered them at peace with all the world and each other. MT. Webb rose to a question of personal privilege This rising to questions of personal privilege has be- come 50 frequent and regular that there is some talk of including it in the regular order.
 MT Webb stated that he was not ab- normally thin skinned or over sensitive. He could stand the sarcasm of his col leagues and the gibes of the press, when they were directed at him, but he would resent the same sarcasm and gibes when directed at his friends.
 He had reference, he said. to an edi- toriaI which appeared in The Republ- can yesterday morning relative to the car shortage at Stafford of which the convention had been apprised the day before by a communication from Hon George A Olney. the victim of the shortage. MT. Webb's philippic fol- lows:
 It Was No Joke.
 MT President, I arise to a point of personal privilege, speaking not in anger but in disgust.
 Thirty years ago. MT. President, as a smooth-f faced boy, I came to Arizona. I enjoyed but little schooling; whatever of advancement may have had has come to me through opportunities like the present, of associating with those whom it has done me good to know.
 Almost my entire life having been spent in the work of pioneering in Ari- zona, I may perchance have partaken somewhat of the roughness of the rug gedness of Arizona's mountain peaks. Therefore, owing to his lifelong asso- citation, I feel sure that am not par ticularly thin skinned: that I am not over sensitive. and if any member of this convention sees fit to make me the butt of his attempted witticisms I shall make no protest If the representatives of the press, from their point of want age in the gallery. fancy they see some sore spots on my head or upon any other part of my anatomy, then, MT. President, I invite them to make the most of 1t, and freely promise that l shall consider the source and take 1t good naturedly. But when, through some act of mine, my friend receives undeserved ridicule or harsh criticism, MT. President, do resent it.
 Yesterday the Graham county dele gation received a telegram from a dis tinguished citizen of Stafford, in which complaint was made against certain practices of the railroads in the matter relating to the shipment of stock, and asking that a clause be put in our con- stitution protecting future shippers from the same abuse. After consulta- tion with MT Jones. the chairman of the committee on railroads. and acting on his suggestion, this telegram was
