STATEHOOD MEASURE
GOES GLIMMERING

WASHINGTON, June 6.-By a vote OF
40 to "a the senate today took up the
Administrations bill to authorize the prcsl-
dent 10 withdraw public lands Tor con-
servation purposes The negative vo.e @
was cast by members who believed that
the bill TO admit Arizona and New MeXi-
co into the Union as separate states
should have been given the right OF way;
The action today indicates that even II
an agreement is reached subsequently by
which a vote shall be taken OH the state
hood bill, II will be delayed until near
the close of the session, when there may
be slight chance for II to emerge from
conference.
The Democrats led in the movement
to have the statehood measure substitut-
ed for the conservation bill, but seemed
to see In the situation scant opportunity
for action on 1t at the present session
The general understanding is that the
rivers and harbors conference report VIII
be taken UP tomorrow as privileged
matter and that the conservation legisla-
tion will give way for the time being.
Opposition 10 rivers and harbors bills and
public buildings bills has been used ef-
fectivcly by the Democrats In the past
to compel the majority party to take ac-
ton on proposed legislation which the
minority favored
The parliamentary situation established
today seems to have left the Democrats
In the lurch. If they oppose the adop-
tion of the conference report on the riv-
ers and harbors BILL the effect would be
ure Appropriation bills will be used TO
displace business before the senate and
the sundry civil bill can be brought in
when 1t is needed.
There appears 10 be- therefore, strong
probability that the statehood bill viii
be the last OF all the important meas
ures before congress to come up for con-
stderation The Indications are that final

BRAKE" FOR BATTLESHIP
Is NOT FOUND SUITABLE

WASHINGTON, June 6.-Although
it was demonstrated by trial on the bat
tleship Indiana that what is known as
the ship 'sbrake'' would undoubtedly
stop vessel in somewhat less time than
where it was not employed, the device
has been found unsuitable for naval
usage.
The naval board which conducted the
test holds that the brake, which resem-
bles barn door on either side of the
ship, would soon become clogged with
barnacles unless constantly employed.
1T would also increase the danger from
torpedo attack, being grave menace

POLITICAL FIGHT IN
SOUTH DAKOTA WARM

SIOUX FALLS, S. D., June 6.-A three
cornercd contest for the office of cover
nor of South Dakota Is striking feature
OF the campaign which closed tonight.
Because of the spectacular campaign
waged by George Egan disbarred at
torney, made famous In this state as the
special prosecutor OF Mrs. Moses kauff-
man, the situation is difficult TO line up:
Republicans are about evenly divided,
with perhaps a leaning towards the pro-
yressive side.
A close race between Congressman
Burke and John Schrader, a progress
siye" state senator. is predicted in the
congressional election.

BAILEY'S FINE GRAFT
DID NOT LAST LONG

Special to The Tribune
NEW ORLEANS. La. June SO. C.
Bailey, the man arrested in Salt Lake
City on saturday night. has been gener-
ally sought after by the local postoffice
authorities for number or months, and
when he is brought back here he will
be vigorously prosecuted for using the
malls to defraud.
Bailey got about $4,000 from unsus-
pecting people In this city and surround
Ing states. He placed an advertisement
In newspapers all over the south offer
ing about $50 worth of whisky for So,
and gave his business address as this
city. He had no office, but hired a post
office box which the postofflce people
claimed was emptied about six or seven
times daily. the mall for him was so
heavy. A newspaper story printed here
nipped his scheme in the bud, and he
got away and was not heard OF until his
arrest was announced In Salt Lake.
1t caused a stir here. Several of his
victims from surrounding states will be
brought here to testify against him.
