President TGf, has again urged that
the senate take action on the state

day afternoon with the leaders of the

The opposition to the admission OF

whatever hns sheen @streng in the
senate Many Of the senators do not
believe that either territory is sufii-
ciently advanced to assume the re-
sponsibilities Of state government.
other senators do not believe that IL
would be politically cxpedient to ad-
nit them at this time whom the or
ganization majority in the senate Is
as small as il is now. 1t is pointed
out by these men that there is "a
strong possibility TINT the new states

congress in the event OF their admis- /
sion at the present time.
Notwithstanding this opposition |
however, it is believed that, with the |
strong pressure from the White House |
and the demand of the president that /
the platform pledges Of the party be
carried out. that there is strong |
chance that the statehood bill viii hc
taken mp in the senate as soon rs the
land withdrawal bill is disposed Of in
the senate. The program is to pass
the senate bill and send it over to the

would mean the enactment Of state

doubtful i'm the extreme. The radical
between the measure as

small children, who are dependent sole
ly on her for support.
Mrs. McNallen said she was getting

ings, to fall out. Mrs. McNallen dis
covered her loss Immediately, and with
the assistance of several men searched
for the missing money, which consisted
of four $50 bills and the rest in 500
bills. Despite their efforts they were

bunaI for Refusing to Make Gov
ernment Gauger Tell of Dis
tilIery Operations

ATLANTA, Ga, Feb. SIN addition
to defying and denouncing United
States Circuit Court Judge Newman
for refusing to make a government
gauger tell what he knows about the
operation of distillery, Judge A. w.
Fte of Dade county in a public card
said today:
"I've done my duty Now let the
governor do his. "a brewer is making
lager beer in open and notorious de-
fiance Of the law, even in sight OF the
governors mansion in Atlanta. Now,
what is going to be done?"
Judge Fite summoned Gauger Ste
gall to testify as to the operation of
the Cureton distillery. Stegall re-

FREE HUSBAND
MRS. UNDERWOOD AGREES TO
DROP CONTEST
Wife of Mining Magnate's Former Sec
retary Will Allow Divorce Pro-
ceedlngs If She Is Given
Coat and JeWelry

Mrs. Adeline Underwood, wife Of
Adam Underwood, formerly private
secretary for w. A. Clark of Montana,
has expressed herself as willing to
withdraw from the contest of her hus-
bands suit for annulment of their mar
riage providing she is given a heart
shaped locket and a fur coat.
Underwood, through his attorneys
has, it is said, agreed to the PROPOSE
ton, and instead of the bitter legal
contest that was predicted when Mrs
Underwood filed her first answer to her
husbands complaint, the annulment
proceedings promise to be short and in
the nature of the ordinary default case.
The final hearing of the case was set
by Judge Houser of the divorce court
yesterday for April 20. Since the suit
was filed by Underwood in September
a number of hearings have been had on
orders for Underwood to show cause
why he should not pay his wife ali
mony. In all of these she has been de-
feated or only partially successful

Underwood claims a final decree in the
Klair divorce had not been granted at
the time of the New York wedding.
Among the demands made by Mrs,
Underwood in her answers to her hus-
bands complaint was one for the re-
turn to her of fur coat, valued at
$3.50, and a heart-shaped locket. Other
demands included the payment to her
of $3.50 for her expenses in San Fran
cisco. a similar amount for attorney
fees and alimony of $100 a month. Ac-
cording to Underwood's attorneys, she
now asks only for the coat and the
locket. This request Underwood is will
ing to grant, and the coveted garment
and the piece of jewelry will be sent
to Mrs. Underwood at the Manx hotel,
San Francisco.

unidentified men held up and
IL robbed passengers on an east
bound Missouri Pacific passenger train

were unmasked. About $400 and a
small amount of jewelry was taken.
The robbers boarded the chair car on
the outskirts of Pittsburg. When the
train was near Cornell, Kas., they
jumped from their seats, backed Con-
ductor Garrity into corner, and,
drawing revolvers, warned him not to
call for assistance
One robber then covered the passen-
gers with two revolvers.
You will now prepare to give up
your valuables," he said. My partner
will pass among you. Please be quick.
The partner" thereupon produced a
gunnysack and started on his tour, col
lecting money, watches, diamonds and
rings One woman screamed and
tainted. The collector calmly pulled a
ring from her finger, picked up her
purse from the floor, and passed on to
the next victim.
Woman Revived
Passengers revived the woman after
the robbers left the coach.
Throughout the progress of the rob-
berry the train hurried ahead. Not one
of the crew, with the exception of the
conductor, knew a crime was being
perpetrated.

nell came into view several passengers
at the rear of the coach who had not
been reached by the robbers hoped
they would escape with their val
uables and began placing them back
into their pockets.
But they were doomed to disappoint-
ment. The robbers did not hurry
away just because the train stopped
at the station. The robber with the
gunnysack stripped the last passenger
in the car.

peared down an alley.

press car. Sheriff Merriweather and a
score OF deputies at once began search
ing for the men. They are believed to
be han@orston of She mining camps in
