LONE CLIPPER CAPTAIN
'DEF|ES WAR DEPARTMENT
Refuses to Allow a Wrecking
Crew to Board His
Helpless Vessel.

DETROIT, Mich, June 1.-THE War
Department of the United States and it's
representative, Capt. Fred Trotter Of
Amherstburg, were brought up standing
yesterday, in the language of river men,
by Capt John Darlington, master and
owner of the good slip Maria Martin of
Detroit.
In command of flotilla of wrecking
tugs. Capt. Trotter steamed up the De-
troit river. his fleet in perfect formation,
and bore down on the Martin which has
for some time rested in dismasted con-
dition on a bar below Belle Isle. But
Capt. Darlington sighted him from his
lookout ashore.
Single Handed in Defiance.
Putting off in duckboat single hand
ed. Darlington raced for the Martins
rail and when Trotter hove to his crew
saw an elderly man cleared for action
and waiting on the Martins deck. Be-
fore Trotter came within hailing distance
he caught this warning on the Martins
starboard bow:
Take warning. Keep Off! Don't NEEDLE
in any way. Amy person or persons
caught will be treated pirates, no
matter who you are, War Department or

Col Charles Med. Townsend, United

Capt Darlington. however. asserts that
the Martin was the best clipper on the
lakes when she was launched at Cleve-
land in 1866 and is still stanch as when
she slid off the ways.
When Capt Trotter gathered the full
import Of the warning he rang his en-
gines to half speed, and, approaching

Evidence at the trial showed that Nc

MORE STARS IN FLAG
Statehood Bill Passed by Sen
ate, No One Opposing.
HOPES OF enactment
Democrats Prefer House Provisions
for the Admission of New Mex
leo and Arizona.


ences between the bill giving statehood to
New Mexico and Arizona, passed by the
House early in the session, and that
passed by the Senate late yesterday aft
ernoon strong efforts are to- be made to
reach an agreement before the present
session of Congress adjourns.
The statehood bill, the substitute of the
Senate committee on territories for the
House bill, was adopted by the Senate
yesterday afternoon after it had been
considered for about three hours. DEM
ocrats made an effort to have the House
bill approved by the Senate, but by
strict party vote of forty-two to nine
teen the effort failed. When the bill
was put to final passage not a single
no vote was recorded
The passage of the bill followed
speeches urging statehood by Senator's
Beveridge, Frazier, Nelson, Hughes and
SmoOt.
The hope that statehood bill will be-
come a law at this session rose high yes
terday as the result Of remarks made
during it's consideration. Answering queS-
lions that showed apprehension that the
bill would not come to final vote, Sen
ator Nelson promised that he would do
all he could to bring about an agreement
between the two houses.
I'VE ought co dispose of the matter in
two or three days ne remarked.
Ratification of Constitution.
The first important difference between
the Senate and House bills is with re-
gard to the ratification of the state con-
stitutions The Senate bill provides that
after the constitutions have been ratified
by the people of the proposed new states
they shall be submitted for the approval
of the President and of Congress.
The provisions of the two bills regard
ing the qualifications for voters are quite
different. The House bill fixes the quail
fications according to the laws of the
territory of Arizona aS now existing
while the Senate bill provides that the
qualifica tons shall be the same as those
provided for when the present legislature
of Arizona and the delegate were elected.
The Senate bill refuses to recognize the
law passed by the present legislature Of
Arizona at it's last session
1t has been charged that politics is
being played in this move. The present
legislature, it is claimed, is democratic
and the new election law is designed to
help out the democrats in future elections
The old law is fairer to the republicans,
it is asserted, and therefore has been
favored by the republican leaders
in. Congress. The Senate committee on
territories, in refusing to accept the new
law. pointed out many features of it
which were thought by the committee to
be bad.

The Land Question.

The third important difference between
the two bills relates to the appropriation
of lands for the payment of bonds of GER
tain counties of the territories. The
House bill proposes to appropriate 3,0oO,-
eco acres of land to pay ali the indebted
ness of the counties and both the terri
tories: the Senate bill. appropriates l,oo5-'
Geo acres To pay certain specified bonds
which it is thought the United States is
morally bound to make good.
There is also much difference between
the two bills in their provisions for the
disposal of lands granted to the proposed
new states for school purposes. 1t is
urged, in behalf of the Senate Dill, that
it provides strict though rea4nable re-
strIctions regarding their disposal, while
the House bill makes no limitations.
y striking difference between the two
bills is to be found in the judiciary sec
tons The Senate committee reported
that the Department of Justice feared
that the House bill gravely imperiled the
status of existing suits IN New Mexico.
The sections of the Senate bill in this
regard were written by the Department
of Justice.
Both bills prohibit polygamy. but the
Senate measure contains more drastic
prohibition OF the offense.
Teaching Foreign Languages.
The House bill allows the teaching OF
other Languages than English in the
public schools of the territories, but the
Senate bill specifically provides that the
| schools shall be conducted in English. and
strikes out the House provision that
nothing in this act shall preclude the
teaching of other languages in said pub
lie schools"
There are important differences of
phra seology between the two bills as re-
CARDS reclamation and power sites al
though the purpose of both bills is the
same-to reserve to the United States
such sites. Other differences relate to
the land laws and as to the amounts of
grants of land for specific purposes.
