FOSSILS IN CULEBRA CUT.
They Will Be Sent to the Smith.
sonian for Exhibition.

Several interesting fossils have been
found in the Culebra cut in the Panama
Canal Zone by Joseph David. q fore
man on the Panama canal. They will
be sent to the Smithsonian Institution
in this city for examination and ex-
hibition. The fossil of most interest
to laymen who have seen the collection
is shaped like ducks head. with the
bill back of the head and eyes. clearly
defined. 1t is about eighteen inches
long and weighs twenty-eight pounds.
1t is thought to be the head of some
prehistoric bird. There are specimens
supposed to be a cocoanut, an orange.
an alligator pear and other things of
unknown origin. They were all found
in one of the small slides on the east
bank of the Culebra cut. about 900
feet north of Gold Hill. Apparently they
had been covered by only few feet
of earth before the material began
to slide.

Academy.

broadway After Dark" with Harry
Fields in the stellar role, opened its
engagement at the New Academy las:
night. The house was packed, despite
the Indictment weather.
The play is a modern melodrama
plentiful in scenic changes. 1t deals
with the dire misfortuneS OF Flora
Ross. a wealthy orphan, at the hands
Of Curtis York. her thieving guardian.
But every plot to ruin her is nipped
in the bud by Abe Moxie with his
very admirable brace of ''shootin'
irons.
The introduction Of drug fiend
would have rendered the production
somewhat gruesome were 1t not for
the omnipresent Harry Fields with his
entertaing parodies and clever dances.
The audience was enthusiastically ap.
preciative.

DISTRICT IS FOREVER

Retrocession of Part to Virginia
Void, in the Opinion of
Hannis Taylor.
VIEWS OF HIGH AUTHORITY
ON CONSTITUTIONAL LAW
Breach of Contract Which Would
Justify Maryland in Resuming
Her Sovereignty.
Retrocession to Virginia
Void, in Taylor's Opinion

The attempted act of recession of
conflict with sections and 10 Of
Article I of the Constitution: the
legislation of Virginia under which
her sovereignty is now asserted is
null and void because IN conflict
with section 10 Of article 1 OF the
Constitution.
The practical dilemma is this: In
1848 two parties to a quadrilateral
contract protected by the contract
clause Of the Constitution-to Wit.
the United States and Virginia
attempted to annul 1t without the
assent of the other two parties, by
withdrawing a large section Of the
consideration upon which the con-
tract was made. If that attempted
recession upon the part Of the
United States and Virginia is valid,
then the contract as a whole fails.
Neither party is bound unless all
are bound.
II the United States and Virginia,
as a matter of law, actually an
nulled the quadr1lateral contract,
then Maryland and the representa-
tives of the nineteen proprietors
can justly and legally claim every
foot Of land embraced in the limits
of the District as now defined. If
the retrocession to Virginia Is to
stand. then the land underlying
the Capitol. the White House and
the Treasury belongs either to
Maryland or the local proprietors
by whom 1t was granted.
The nation can only be protected
against that result by a Judgment
OF the Supreme Court of the United
States declaring the act of retro
cession of 1916 to be null and void.-

Our Deep Obligation to Taft.

The outlook for statehood is more encouraging that it has been at any time since the converting of the Sixty first congress. After conferring with senate and house leaders, President Taft is more confident than ever that a bill admitting the two territories will pass at this session-which means within the next two weeks.
 It seems clear that the enemies of statehood cannot succeed in smother ing the bill-there is bound to be a vote on the question of it's considera- tion-and there has always been abundant evidence that if there could be a vote in the senate majority Of the membership would be for the ad- mission of Arizona and New Mexico. An analysis of the latest vote relating to the question strengthens this evil dence. On June 6, on the motion of Senator Shoot to take up the land withdrawal bill ahead of the state hood bill, the vote stood 40 to 24. The remaining 28 senators were absent and evenly paired. Of the 40 sena- tors who voted for the Shoot mo- tion, the list shows at least fl who have at one time or another declared themselves in favor of admitting the territories. These senators are: Bourne of Oregon. Bristow and Cur tis of Kansas, Carter of Montana, Dick of Ohio. Nelson of Minnesota, Nixon of Nevada, Flint and Perkins of California, Page of Vermont, Piles of Washington, Shoot of Utah. War ner of Missouri and Warren of Wyo- ming. Subtracting 14 votes from the 40 registered for the Shoot motion would leave 26 who possibly would vote against statehood; although Of the remaining 26 we ought to have right to count on Burkett of Ne braska, Burrows of Michigan, Dolli- yer of Iowa, and Sutherland of Utah. But counting only 14 of the 40 as the proper number to add to the 24 who voted to take up the statehood bill, we have this result: Against statehood, 26; for statehood, Ss; a majority of 12. And dividing the 2S paired votes equally, as We should, we still have a majority of F in the whole senate.
 For this excellent outlook, the ter ritories have to thank William H. Taft, president of the United States. We have an honest president, who is deeply in earnest in his insistent de- mand that the republican party in congress shall in good faith carry out the platform pledges of the party. If we get statehood the credit for 1t will belong to MT Taft. And for his sincere work in our behalf-whether he succeeds or not-Mr. Taft has placed all the people of Arizona and New Mexico under lasting obliga- tions to him.

A BOMB ON BROADWAY
But the Special Trains Will Run
 Somewhere.

New York. June 15.-Broadway was startled by the news from San Fran cisco, but the assumption that the fight probably will be held elsewhere if the California ban is not raised eased the first fears of the sporting element So far as could be learned none of the special trains from New York to San Francisco has been can celled, and the assumption is that the routes will merely be transferred from California to Navada or Utah
 Tom Sharkey, who had arranged to conduct an expedition to California, voiced the general view of fight fol- lowers here. Governor Gillett's ac- ton will not prevent the fight being held,'' said Sharkey. If the men can't meet there the fight will be shifted to Carson City or some other point Wherever the battle takes place. I will run a special train to the scene If necessary, we will ga to the north pole"

PHOENIX, ARIZONA, JUNE 16. 1910.
The New Phoenix.

The election of yesterday began a new era for Phoenix. By an over whelming majority, the taxpayers have voted for a modern and ade- quate sewer system. This notice to the world that We have determined to provide the first requisite for a great city will be the most valuable advertisement the town ever put forth. Hereafter we can in good faith urge upon everybody that we have the most attractive city in the whole west for homebuilders. We can offer an incomparable climate; a city of churches and schools; a rapidly growing commercial capital, and a city of unsurpassed health and really modern conveniences.
 It is to be doubted whether the most enthusiastic booster" for Phoe- nix fully grasps the future of this place New railroads are coming; statehood is coming, and a population of fifty thousand people five years hence is not an exaggerated estimate of what we shall see.
 The good work done yesterday laid the real foundation of the city we are bound to build.

EITHER, BUT NOT BOTH
The Panama Exposition and the Prize
 Fight.

Washington, June 15.-The move of i the state authorities of California | to stop the Jeffries-J Johnson prize ! fight is believed in Washington to 1 have had its origin in a telegram by Representative Bennett of New York | sent to William R. Wheeler, president i of the San Francisco chamber of 1 commerce, on May 2S. The telegram ' was to the effect that the moral sen timent of the country was so op- posed to the right that unless it was
 prevented there was grave danger that congress would take unfavorable ! action on the resolution now before it naming San Francisco as the place for holding the international celebration of the opening of the Panama canal
 Mir. Bennett is a member or the | foreign affairs committee of the house that has the exposition resolution un- der consideration. He recently re- l ceived a telegram from San Francisco asking his support of the resolution for the San Francisco fair. He replied as above.
 When informed today that Governor Gillett had moved to call the fight off Mir Bennett was much gratified. He
 said: "Prize-fighting is prohibited by law in my state and in most states. l The sentiment of the country is, l believe, strongly opposed to such lex- hibitions"
 In response to his telegram, MT. Bennett received one from Mir. Wheel CT which said: Please urge your committee that the spirited
 citizens promoting the San Francisco 1 exposition and the people generally | interested therein, are not favorable to the Jeffries- Johnson fight. Un doubtedly the majority of our people are opposed to the fight It would be decidedly unjust to consider the ] latter proposition in connection with | the former"
 The foreign affairs committee will consider the resolutions of San Fran cisco and New Orleans asking for recognition for their proposed expo
 sitions. In view of the action of the | California authorities on the proposed
 prize fight, it is understood that Mir.
 Bennett will favor San Francisco as against New Orleans for the eXposi- ! tion.

THE FIRST BIDDER.

Reno. Nev. June 15.-Reno made the first bid for the fight this after noon as soon as the Associated Press bulletins announcing the action taken by Governor Gillett and Attorney Gen eral Webb were made public. Tex Rickard was sent telegram signed by A. J. Milesworth, manager of a local theater, and representing prominent business men, stating that this city would erect a suitable arena and fur nish the s1,00O license required by the state law in case the promoters will bring the contest here.

THE PRIZE FIGHT GAME.

JOHNSON DOESN'T CARE WHERE.

San Francisco, June 15.-"I don't care where the fight takes place" de- clared Jack Johnson this evening. "Of course would rather have it come off in san Francisco as l am training here, but if we cannot fight here l am willing to go anywhere Rickard and Gleason agree upon."
 Like Jeffries, Johnson said he could not understand why Governor Gillet has decided to step in and prevent the fight at this late stage in the game.
 The colored champion put in busy day. He ran twelve miles, punched the bag and when through various other training stunts before a large crowd that had assembled to watch him. He then boxed with his partners.
