the railways and a fair rate of profit.
Mr.. Hitchcock sends to congress with

Washington, Aug. 15.-The senate
tonight adopted the conference report
on the wool tariff revision bill already
adopted by the house, and the bill now
goes to the White House for the ex-
petced veto by President Taft. The
vote came after a vigorous five hours
of debate on the merits Of the bill
and was victory for the combined
Democrat-Insurgent Republican forces
as against the regular Republicans.
The bill as passed by the two houses
places a fiat ad valorem duty Of 20
per Genet on all raw woolens, with
proportionate rates on the woolen
manufacturers.
The opinion is held here tonight that
congress will enter upon the last eight
days Of the session tomorrow.
The demand Of the Insurgent sena-
tors that the cotton bill be disposed
OF is complicating matters in the sem
ate. A caucus Of Democratic senators
was called for tomorrow morning to
consider the cotton bill and questions

The house is ready to act upon the
wool bill In case President Taft vetoes

soon as the senate takes another vote

Washington, Aug. 15.-The final at

feature of the Arizona constitution was
received in the house with applause
by the Representatives, and was re-
ferred to the territories committee Of
that body, Chairman Flood promising
prompt action.
With the announcement of the pres
ident's veto and a following conference
with Taft, Senator Smith of Michigan,
chairman of the senate territories
committee, introduced a new statehood
resolution, meeting the presidents g
view, and providing for the admission
of both states on the condition that
Arizona shall strike the recall of
judges provision from its new con-
stitution. The territories committees
consider the resolution.
The house committee will decide
when an attempt will be made to pass
the vetoed resolution over the presi-
dents objections. Senator Smith de-
clared IL would be impossible to pass
the Statehood resolution over the veto
in the senate and he did not think an
attempt to do so will be made. In
case the attempt in the house to pass
the resolution over the veto fails many
Democrats in the house will support a
resolution similar to the one intro
