the charge of having robbed his en-
ployer Lawrence Cox of about fifty dol

GARY GETS
BIG MUNC|E
TIN PLANT

OmciaI advices received from Pitts
burg, where the executive Offices of the
American sheet steel and Tin Plate
company are, is that the Muncie plant
of the company is to be closed October
4 and to be removed to Gary.
Muncie will be the first of the tin
plate towns to bow before Gary's su-
premacy in the tin plate world. The
same magnet that has taken away the
plant from the gas belt city Is also to
drw away the sheet and tin plate mills
from the Pennsylvania region.
Gary OutrivaIs In Cheapness.
One of the reasons that the Muncie
plant is to be closed is that the steel
corporation wishes to center its tin
plate industry in Gary. Greater
economy can be had here. Before long

REPORTS TWO RESOLUTIONS
Foreign Affairs Committee Uses, Boil,
Panama Expositions Alike.

Washington, June 16.-Unwilling to ia
vor either of the rival panama exposition
cities. San Francisco or New Orleans,
today decided to report favorably two
resolutions authorizing the President to
invite foreign nations to participate in
each exposition to be held in the two
cities whenever each city has raised ST.
100000 for the purpose of holding its ex-
position. The Senate committee has
taken no action similar
The New Orleans contingent appeared
jubilant over the committees action. The
San Francisco adherentSv admitted that
the action was not what they wanted
but declared that they could raise any
amount necessary TO secure government
endorsement of this fact. The commit
tee adopted the resolution of both Rep
Kahn of California and Rep. Estopinal
of Louisiana. These were nearly indenti-
cal and authorized the President to in
vite foreign countries to participate in
the international exposition in 1915. the
Estopinal resolution being for New Or
leans and the Kahn for San Francisco.
The original sum fixed as an actual
ooeiiioe SUBSCRIPTION requirement in San
francisco and New Orleans was S., 900. 900

$1.5oo,0O0 in each case
While the committee was in executive
session two camps of interested parties

THE STATEHOOD BILL
For Admission of Arizona and New
Mexico Passes Senate.

Washington, June 16.-After remaining
in an uncertain state on the Senate cal
endar for almost three months, the bill
providing for the admission of the terri
tories of New Mexico and Arizona to sep
arate statehood. was taken up by tha
Senate today and passed after ad ebate
consuming little more than two hours.
The measure was called up by Senator
Beveridge, chairman of the committee or
territories, on the conclusion of the rou-
tine business of the day. and was passed
after speeches by Senators Beveridge
Frasier, Nelson, Hughes and Smoot. All
the speeches were favorable TO the crea-
tion of the two states, but the Democrats
favored the House bill
Z When the vote was reached there was
ia division on the Senate substitute for the
House bill, but with that amendment ac-
.cepted the Senate voted solidly for the
passage of the bill. The Senate substitute
was adopted as an amendment to the
House measure by a strictly party vote of
AZ to 10.
AS passed. the bill would provide for
the admission as states of the two terri
tories, but not until after a constitution
had been adopted by each of them. ap-
proved by the President and ratified by
Congress.

RESIGNATION ACCEPTED
OF Washington A. P. Man Who Was
SUPPLYING News Abroad.

s Washington, June 16.-rRepresentative
Humphrey of Washington, introducer
of the ship subsidy bill. spoke in the
House today upon various forms of
combinations among foreign steamship
lines touching American ports and re-
ferred to discriminatory rates charged
for sending American products abroad.
In his speech. he charged that certain
foreign lines were represented in WASH
|.ington by member of the staff of
The Associated Press in that connec-
ton, and the following was issued by
The Associated Press:
1T having come to the knowledge of
the executive officers of The Associat-
ed Press that an employee in the Wash
ington Office has been engaged under
salary by two steamship lines to fur
niSh them with certain classes of IN
formation an investigation has been
made. 1t has been disclosed that Whll>
such employment did not at any time
involve any act on the part of the en-
ployc which could in any way affect
the integrity of the service; nor even
interfere with his legitimate and prop
er work for The Associated Press, nev-
crtheLeSs such employment is so sub
iect to miscenception as to seriously
impair his usefulness and his relation
to The Associated Press has in con-
sequence ceased by the acceptance Of
his resignation.
This termination of his long, useful
and honorable service does not justify
any assumption that he has been con-
sciously guilty of any misconduct nor in
the work he has performed for the steam
ship companies he has done anything
which one not connected with The Asso-
ciated Press might not have done with
perfect proprety."
This is what Mr.. Humphrey said on
this subject:
"The hired representative of Herr Bal
lin and his interests is here in Washing
ton today on the staff Of The Associated
Press, the greatest news gathering agen-
cy in the world. This gentleman's name
is Mr.. Jerome J. Wilber-and when you
remember how close the German mer-
chant marine is to the German navy it
is at least suggestive of this giant for
eign steamship trust should also be the
assigned to our state. war and navy de-
partments.
when he was on the witness stand the
other day he refused to testify as to the
amount of money that he was being paid
for this service. The next day after that
Mr.. Boas of New York american gener-
al manager of the Hamburg American
Packet Coz was upon the witness stand
and he testified that Wilber's compensa-
ton was 5000 a year What does he do?
