With reference to the prediction

THE congestion last winter was due

Oklahoma City, Okla. Juno 1i.-Dep-
uty Upited states Marshal Chris Mad
sen. of Guthrie, tonight served a cita-
tton on Governor Haskell TO appear in
the Federal court to show cause why
ne should attempt to remove the state
capital from Guthrie. Last night Dep-
nty United states Marshal Heck

because of his attitude. The Gov
ernor had snatched paper from the
hand of Sheriff Mahoney, OF Logan

Thomas. This is the Governor Of ok
iahoma. | would have you Know said
Haskell.
The subpoena was taken away un-

his back on the officer. A different

by Deputy Marshal Jackson.
. According to Thomas's story, the
Governor; when Informed by Jacobson
that he had papers from the Federal
court for him. replied:
don't care who YOU are: am
the Governor of Oklahoma. Get out OF
here or ! viii kick you down stairs
the hotel where the Governor made
his headquarters. That Oklahoma has
a dual capital is no longer in doubt.
Governor Haskell and Secretary OF
State Cross are transacting official bus
mess under the original State seal at
Oklahoma City, while Assistant Secre-
tary of State Leeger has duplicate
seal and is transacting official business
at Guthrie. The Republican State Com
mittee to-day recognized the two capt
tails by fling at both Guthrie and okla
homa City referendum petitions The
duplicate seal of State was used in
Guthrie.
The citations for Governor Haskell
and other State officials to appear in
the Federal court and show cause why
they should attempt to remove the
capital of the State are returnable on
Friday.
Guards are stationed about the Guth-
rte State House" to prevent the re-

was searched to-day for State papers
before he was allowed to leave Guthrie.
Mayor Farouharson said that he had
given no orders for the search and
regarded the act as censura BILE.
All state officers. except Governor
Haskell and Secretary of State Cross
went to Guthrie to-day for the argu-
nents on the demurrer to the petition
in the District Court, to enjoin the re-
moval of the capital to Oklahoma City.
Judge Huston took the matter under
advisement. and will probably render

Joint Commission Is Proposed TO Work
Out Details.
Washington, d. c., June 14.-The ap-
pointment by tle District Colrmis sioners
of a commission OF st, members. three
from the District and three from yir-
ginia, to frame legislation for the
recession to the District of thirty
square miles OF land in Alexandria
county, Va, is urged In communities
tion forwarded by the Commissioners
to-day to the House Committee on the
District OF Columbia.
while it does not seem desirable
to acquire all the territory which was
retroceded," the Commissioners say,
yet there remains the very important
consideration that those parts of Alex
andria county which lie near near to
the Potomac and in plain sight of the
capital especially that part embracing
the palisades of the Potomac below
Chain Bridge. might easily become All
eyesore and mar the beauty of the city
which confronts them. Already quar-
ries are disfguring the green slopes ana
ravines OF the Virginia shore.
TWO Important Considerations.
1.-TWO important considerations which
must have influenced the authorities in
determining the original boundaries If
the District of Columbia We're the one
military and the other esthetic. The
military consideration has lost all prac-
tlcal Importance. The growth of
large city here, perhaps an unexpected
~ large city, and the expenditure of
SO much money in constructing build
inGs, parks and the like of a nonumen-
tai character. render it essential TO
the performance OF its function that
certain limited areas should revert 10
the Federal District.
What would so essentially benefit
the city of Washington would benefit
the portions OF Virginia lying near
Washington. Considerable portions of
land lying across the Potomac and cs-
pecially the Palisades. would be parked
In parting with sovereignty over so
small an area the State of Virginia
could at the same time benefit herself
and benefit the nation"
Would Recover 1900 Acres.
Accompanying the commissioners

covering the recommendations made
The commissioners specifically. state
that they do not favor the ACQUISITION
Of more than 1900 acres OF land in
Alexandria, lying near the Potomac
and comprising the 1895 acres of the
Arlington reservation, which is al
ready under Federal control. The
amount of land receded to Virginia in
1876 was 1860 acres Consequently
the commissioners want less than half
of it back.
"There is every reason" the COM
missioners say in this connection, for
limiting the area of the District of Co
lumbia to the least amount that will
enable 1t to fulfill It's function as d
location for the national capital"

Washington, ID. c., June 14.-It looks
now as if the retrocession program of
the Taft administration would not be
carried out.
The people of Virginia will fight to
the bitter end the proposition of the
general government to take certain
lands given back to 1t many years ago.
The movement, which is said to be
backed by real estate traders, made
more progress than the average man
would have imagined An engineer has
made survey of the coveted territory
and prepared a report. Something more
than 1000 acres along the Potomac
River, including part of Alexandria,
and coveriny Rosslyn, is involved. A
resolution. in fact more than one, was
prepared for Congress, providing for the
appointment of a commission of six
men, three by the President and three
by the Governor OF Virginia. provided

all six. II he did not. to consider Sc
riously the proposition.
Up to yesterday Virginia Congress
men did not think it worth while to

ter, but when 1t was realized that the
President meant business, Senator
Martin and Representative Carlin
went and presented their views.
Mr.. Taft was told that no Virginia
Legislature would ever consent to re-
PROCESSION of a single foot of land. but
that the government. under an existing
State law, could buy all the land it
wanted. the present owners willing,
and have supervision over it.
