It Prohibits Itnllroail Hate Dihcrlm inntion, but .Mnken Penalty Fine -Instead of Imprisonment. WASHINGTON, Jan. 21. Senator Elkins The opooncnts of the omnibus state hood bill havo two alternatives, now that Senator Quay has proved that he has a majority In Its favor. One Is to compromise rather than have legislation blocked by the persist ence of Its friends. The other Is to bring- up other lezls latlon. such as a trust bill, which the Iemocrats dare not oppoaj,"- and thus recover their lost control. The object of the Elkins anti-trust bill is understood to bo to keep Inter state commerce from belnc subject to the orovlslons of the House bill. It Is suspected the railroads are behind It.

Senator Bailey refuses to allow unani mous consent for any action of the Senate unlll the opposition to his bill maklnz Port Arthur a port of entry ceases. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington, Jan. 2L Quay and the territories seeking statehood won a substantial, vic tory today, which has demonstrated the claim made by the friends of the omni bus bill all the while that they had 1G Republican votes for the measure. It was noticeable that It was a Republican treaty against the statehood bill, and the state hood bill won. This does not mean that the Republicans who voted against going Into executive session were opposed to the treaty. On the contrary, Quay and oth ers have announced themselves as favor ing the treaty, but say they want to get the statehood bill out of the way first The test vote showing a majority of 10 In favor of the bill wfll make the friends of thit measure more determined than ever, and while it seems to be virtually Impos sible to wear the minority out by con tinuous sessions of the Senate, yet that method will be tried, and possibly in the future some compromise may be effected. The minority is Just as determined that the statehood bill shall not pass, and this minority is composed of the leading Re publicans of the Senate, who generally have their way. The Republicans who are opposed to the statehood bill feel sure that they can displace the measure with appropriation bills and also with an anti trust measure wh,en it comes in. They think the Democrats will not dare op pose taking up anti-trust legislation. If the advocates of the statehood bill can hold together they can block all other legislation, but they expect their bill to pass when an extra session Is threatened, or when it seems likely that anti-trust legislation will f all. Senator Mitchell and Senator Foster were paired with the advocates of state hood today. The Oregon Senator did not vote, as he was unable to leave his room today on account of a slight attack of in digestion, but his doctor has been able to relieve him and promises that he will be able to resume his duties in a day or two. senator Salmon voted with the minority for an executive session. Turner of Washington voted with the statehood Senators. ed by many members of the House as the best-adapted man in the House mr th Place. It was he, in the last session, who had active charge of the Irrigation bill when under consideration In the House, and he who has been designated by the President as the father of the irrigation. Recdor has been very active for the past week, securing Indorsements for the irri gation chairmanship, both from House members and from others of innuence. but Mondell. recognizing Reeder's ranking po sition, has made no active canvass beyond asking the Speaker to consider his name among others when the selecUon Is made. 00 iar apeaicer Henderson has given no j today introduced a bill which covers the sign of his intention to fill the vacanev i features of anti-trust legislation so far Ius it relates to ranroaas. it contains tne provisions which have been recommended i by Attorney-General Knox as to the pun ishment of those who receive rebates as well as those who give rebates. It pro vides for the punishment of corporations by line Instead of Imprisonment of the officials; also for injunctions to prevent discriminations. ' The Elkins bill is the result of confer ences among various Senators, most of them being members of the committee on interstate commerce. Its purpose Is to separate Interstate commorce and rail roads from other legislation. The inter state commerce committee has been un able to agree upon measures which havo been pending before it relating to pooling and fixing rates by the Interstate Com merce Commission. The . new bill leaves these contested questions out and covers muxxxxxvj unijUiMAiN, THURSDAY, JANUARY 22, 1903. ANOTHER TRUST BILL this session, and. If he should not. it is generally conceded that Mondell would be selected by Speaker Cannon when the next congress organizes, as Reeder Is some what deficient in qualities going to make a successful manager.

Intended to Exempt Interstate Com merce From Home Trust Bill. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash- jngton. jan. jo. The Elkins bill, Intro duced todiy. Is explained by its sponsors to mean that they do not want interstate commerce in any anti-trust bill that may ho proposed by the House and adopted by the Senate. There Is a suspicion that tho railroad corporations want to keep out side of the trust legislation, or at least to keep interstate commerce outside of It. hence tho proposed bill of Senator Elkins, It may be that the Elkins bill will b used to antagonize any trust legislation that comes from the House or that nuy bo reported by tho committee on Judiciary of the Senate. That it will scarcely be accepted by a majority of the Senate is very likely. The Democratic membership would no doubt prefer & measure Includ ing the railroads with all other corpora tlons, and. If the Republican House passes such a measure, the men who are known as corporation Senators will not be able to substitute tho Elkins bill for any House measure; If the Elkins bill is not satisfactory to the President it will not be framed, for ji eeems to do almost certain that a meas are which meet3 the views of the Presi dent and tho Attorney-General must be framed. Presumably the Elkins bill, as xar as it goes, will prove quite satisfac tory, especially to shippers, who have complained bitterly of rebates and dis criminations, and to that extent it meets suggestions as to interstate commerce. It, however, takes the railroads out of the publicity part of the anti-trust bill, which is being framed by the House committee, and that Is objectionable to many mem bers of both houses. At the same time the feeling that publicity may do a great deal of damage to legitimate business Is grow ing, and it may be that it will not be pressed as a feature of the anti-trust bill if it encounters too much opposition. FIGHT FOR TONGUE'S SHOES. Reeder and Mondell Both Want to Head Irrigation Committee. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington, Jan. 21. There is an Interesting fight in progress in the House over the chairmanship of the irrigation committee ; made vacant by the death of Reprcsenta I tlve Tongue.

Sabine Pass has been built up largely by New York capital, while Chicago capital has developed Port Arthur. The New York and Illinois Senators are, accordingly, championing the respective ports. Bailey Insists that in the choice between the two ports (bp,th. now subports of entry) as to hich shall be made a port of entry, the wishes of the Senators from Texas should be respected, and that Interference from ew York or other states should not be permitted to prevent action on his hill. Depew Insists that the Establishment of a port of entry is a National question, and tnat all Senators have tho right to par ticipate In the location of such port. In his argument. Bailey says that Port Arthur Is today twice as large as Sablno Pass, and to improve Sabine Pass equally ' would require tho expenditure of $3,000,000 to $4,000,000. Until outside interference is withdrawn and his bill is considered and passed. Bailey Intends to block unanimous consents in the Senate, particularly for Republican Senators.
