Sacramento streets, caused a loss of over
J750.O00. The Arc started on the third floor
of the storeroom of Cunningham, Curtis
& Welch, wholesale stationers and book
dealers, at a point near the elevator shaft,
and before the firemen arrived the fire
had spread to the Jioor above
In an astonishingly short period of time
the fifth Jioor was next ablaze and the
firemen liad.reat trouble, owing to the
inflammable character of the contents.
When they would succeed in controlling
the lire on one floor it would break out
jn another. There were no serious acci
dents, and, so far as known, every occu
pant escaped from the building. Three
men who were caught in iheir rooms got
o saXoty after much difficulty and peril.
The building was practically -rutted.
What was left untouched by the flames
wa ruined by the great volume of water
poured Jn upon the building.
MnHinghani, Curtis & Welch estlmato

SSWUKtf. Louis Roesch & Co.. lithograph
ers, lost $200,000. with insurance of $S7.u00.

be used again for rebuilding.

to some extent.

Salxer Valley Lumber Company, at Cen

today. The men demanded a raise to

to set their time. The men claim that
the mills are able to stand a raise of 23

President and a Republican House of Rep
resentatives. Hepartcc About Telegrams.
Toward the olose of the debate Bcvcr
irtge and Forakcr engaged in a sharp col
loquy over the "number and contents of
tolograms received by them, respectively.
Among the messages road by the Ohio
Senator was one saying that Bcvcrldge
had wired to Arizona asking that tele
grams bt sent him. Beverldgc, in reply.
. ypokc of Delegate . Smith, of Arizona, as
Forakor's "Democratic helper."
"Why- should the Jioathon rage?" asked
Forakcr.
V2hy -should the wicked flee when no
man pursues?" responded Bevoridgc. He
repeated the declaration that he had not
made an appeal for telegrams from Ari
zona. Dick spoke for the bill and Clark (Mont,)
against it, and Beverldge closed the de
bate in advocacy of the measure.
All Appropriations Cut Out.
When, promptly at 4 o'clock, the gavel
foil at the end of Beveridge's final appeal
for the bill, the voting was begun. The
amendments suggosted by the committee
were flrst read, and to them no objection
was made until the proposition was
reached to increase from $100,000 to $150,000
the appropriation for defraying the ex
pense of, preliminary elections to be held
in the proposed State of Oklahoma. The
amendment -was lost by a vote of 31 to 40.
Tho increase in the election appropria
tion for Arizona from $150,000 to $175,000
also was disagreed to. The first test vote
came on these money proposals, and the
opponents of joint statehood scored a vic
tory. The object of striking out the increase
was to avoid the necessity of having the
bill sent to a committee when returned to
the House of Representatives. Under the
rules "of the House any bill amended by
the Senato carrying increased expendi
ture must be referred to a committee and
considered in committee of the whole. The
opponents of Joint statehood desired to
afford an opportunity for a motion to con
cur in the amendments without such ref
erence. Joint Statehood Killed.
As soon as the committee amendments
were disposed of. Forakcr formally of
fered his amendment providing for a sep
arate vote In each of the Territories of
Arizona and No Mexico on joint state
hood. The vote was Immediately taken

Oregon Senator Declares -It Great
"Wrong- to Arizona.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington. March 9. Senator Fnlton. prior
to the vote on the statehood bill to
day, made a brief speech in advocacy
of the Forakcr amendment. He said:
For m to refuse to mpport this amend
ment would be to do violence te my de
liberate Judgment and convictions. In this
proposition Is Involved one of the vital and
fundamental principle of our form f sev
ernment. namely, that "government derive
their Just powers from the consent of the
Koverned." It l true that every territory
bclon-flns to the United State and not with
in an organized Mate, the power of Coa
grcwi. subject to the limitations contained
In the Federal constitution. Is rejprcme and
plenary. Neverthele-. It is ur duty to
exercise that power wisely. Justly and in
conformity with that great principle upon
which popular government rest, the will of
the people,
Arizona contends that, when her terri
torial boundaries were etabUfthcd and her
territorial government organized by Con
gress, a promise was made her that, when
fitted for statehood, she should he admitted
to membership In the Msterhood of states
with her present boundaries preserved. The
Keneral policy of Conjrres heretofore has
been to consult with the fishes of the in
habitants of organized territories as largely
as possible touching the time and manner
of admitting them to rtatohood. Guided by
that policy, adopted and adhered to with
practical uniformity in the past, 'the people
of Arizona were Justified In believing that,
when they should reach that Mate of de-cl-opment
in population, morals and Industries
which would Justly entitle them to admis
sion as a state, they would be admitted with
their territorial boundaries constituting the
boundaries of their state, if they m desired,
and certainly they w-ro Justified in believing
that without their consent Mich boundaries
would not be appreciably changed. Believ
ing this and relying on thU. as Justly they
might, thej- entered upon the grear work of
state building.
I can well understand how bitter muK be
tho disappointment, how grievously -wronged
they feel, -when told that th statehood to
which they have looked forward so longingly
has come, but that it does not mean con
tinuance of growth and development alone
the lines they had chosen: that, in truth, it
means disarrangement of their boundaries,
supplanting of their laws and statutes by
laws of another community, transfer of their
scat of government to a point beyond the
confines of thoir present territory and aban
donment of their public buildings, with all
the associations -nd memories that cluster
around them and .endear them te their
hearts.
We all know how' powerful is that senti
ment we call lovcf home and country. It
la the most potent and enduring passion that
dwells In human hearts. The firs't. the
deepest and strongest affection ef every pa
triotic American citizen is for bis country;
second to that, and second only to that. Is
his love for his state. It is a -worthy and
commendable sentiment and one that should
be at all times respected and considered by
those who arc charged with the adminis
tration of government. These people who
compose the citizens of Arizona today have
devoted themselves to bulldljig a strong
foundation for a future state that was to be
their joy, and their pride. Shall we. -without
consulting their wishes, commit the destiny
of that community to other band 6?
1 cannot consent by my vote to put that
great wrong upon any people.
GIU2AT REJOICING AT TUCSON
CHICAGO. March 9. (Special.)
"Any old color, m long as it Is red." Is
the prevailing: hint in the color of hat;,
as orought out very forcibly In the
National milliners' convention, which
fluttered and pushed and finally set
tled down to business today.
Also the death sentence of the long;
automobile veil was formally read by
Mmc. Hunt, president of the associa
tion. "Of course." she admitted, some
young- girls will cling; to the flowing
curves of the evcn-yard veils, but
tncy will not be properly dressed."
Small, tight-fitting- veils arc the thing;
Tho flowing- veil catches the wind and.
worse than that. It Is conspicuous. The
well-dresecd, really fashionable woman
is never conspicuously dressed.
Draped Plaques for the JUch.
Draped plaques, half turban and rolling-
French sailors arc decided vogue
for the season. Tho plaquos come in
flat, clrcular.shaped straws which are
tortured, twisted and hammered Into
positively inconceivable shapes. Then
balm Is applied in the way of soft,
beautiful laces, trimmings of dainty
ferns, and forth cornea the "draped
plaque.
The long; chiffon draplngs of last sea
son arc decidedly out of form this year.
The very longest will barely touch the
shoulder and will consist of French
Ihcck, thread laces. Valenciennes and
Duchess laces, and the common herd
cannot 'touch these exclusive designs
because of their high cost. The plaques
and half turbans with thoir expensive
braids, lacos and French flowers they
must be Imported, because the Ameri
cans xiavi not the art of clustering;
them will make exclusive headgear
for the rich only. Any attempt to copy
these models with cheaper materials
will be detected at once.
Sailors of Moderate Cost.
The half-rolling sailor on the other
nand will be made much of In every
style and milliners predict for It a
.ihort but popular life, because It can
be put up at comparatively small cost.
Millions of good American money will
go into buckles this seayon. There will
be all sorts of buckles, from the minia
ture to one resembling that on a horse
blanket.
Blue hats are not good form any
more. Unless made of the very costliest
materials, they fade speedily. They
will still be worn with solid suits. On
crimson hat with about four quarts of
cherries clustered under the brim and
a few scattered hither and yon around
thfl top seemed to bo the favorite with
the visiting milliners.
Kcddcr the Better.
All the new styles sltow red as the
predominating color tho redder the
better. Mmc Hunt's lecture today was
dox'oted almost exclusively to the plan
for establishing a great home In Chi
cago for working milliners. She point
ed out tlie difficulties girls working at
small salaries have in procuring board
and lodging at desirable places within
their means and urged the establish
ment of the home as one long step in
reforming wicked Chicago.
Half Town Parades, Fireworks and
Kiflcs Crack, Whistles Blow.
TUCSON. Ariz., March 9. Early in
the day, wlien the news of the defeat
of the joint statehood bill flrst arrived.
whistles were blown, firecrackers ex

half of the population of the city was
on tne streets, a. procession neaaeu
by Mayor Manning and principal offi
cials paraded the main streets from
7:30 until 0:30.
Fifty riflemon fired blank charges in
steady volleys from wagons as tho
procession progressed to the accom
paniment of red lights, cheers. Illumi
nated homes, ringing of bells and
blowing of sirens.
Rejoicing in Arizona.
PHOENIX. Ariz., March 9. Many im
promptu celebrations wore held tonight
throughout the territory on the action of
the United States Senate today in the mat

LAWYERS' INNINGS NEXT
Government Completes Evidence on
Packers Pica for Immunity.
CHICAGO. March 9.The Government to
day rested Its case In the packers' hear
ing on their pleas for immunity. No an
nouncement was made by the attorneys
for the packers as to whether they will
Introduce any evidence in rebuttal, but
it Is believed by the Government that they
will not. The arguments arc expected to
commence on Monday.
T. M. Robertson, special agent of tho
Government, declared in a letter pro
duced in court today that ho had de
clined to examine any of the books of
Armour & Co., if the packers desired
him to pledge that the Information would
not be published bj President Roosevolt.
Ho was asked bv Miller, on behalf of
Armour & Co.. if. he would say that he
had an opportunity to decline to take the
information if he was compelled to make
a pledge that the President would not
publish it.
Mr. Robertson replied that he would
not say that he had such an opportunity
and the attorney then brought out a let
ter. Mr. Robertson declared that the
letter referred entirely to another matter.

TARIFF CRAMPS INDUSTRY
Development of Shoo Trade Kc
stricted by leather Duty.
NEW YORK. March 9. The Hide
and leather Association of New York
and vicinity held its third annual din
ner last night.
The chief speaker was A. Augustus
Hoaley, first vice-president oC the
United States Leather Company. He
said the tariff on hides would make
the footwear of Americans Increase in
cost, while it hampered the exports
of manufactured leather.
"Our expansion would be larger at
home," he went on, "If we were not
handicapped at home. Tne United
States does not and cannot produce
more than two-thirds of the hides
needed by our manufacturers.
"We are handicapped In the markets
of the world. South American hides
are bought at the greatest disadvan
tage. Our neighbors In Canada pros
per at our expense, and our shoe man
ufacturers have been great! troubled
of late. These duties have caused such
an advance that they sec nothing but
loss unless they raise the price of
shoes."
