RE STATES Committee Action in Favor of New Mexico, Arizona and Oklahoma. LONG GOES Secretary Confirms the Re port That He Will Leave the Cabinet. Pierpont Morgan Planning for t h e Most Sumptuous P e ed S e w York Ever K n e w . New York, Feb. 21.-Of all the enter tainments organized in honor of Prince Henry, there will be none more elaborate than the luncheon to be given for him at Sherry's on Wednesday next by the rep resentatives of American finance, trade and industry. The moving spirit in the affair Is J. Pierpont Morgan. In the way of giving the royal visitor an idea of the possibilities of American gastronomy it Is projected to surpass anything of the kind that has ever taken plaoe here be fore. The cost of the luncheon will be great and among the items of expense will be the highly ornate liveries now being made for the entire staff of waiters employed in connection with the enter tainment. The prince and his entertain ers will be surrounded by servitors who will look as if they had Btepped out of a canvas painted in the days of the Georges of England. Arches in Milwaukee.

Washington, Feb. 21.Secretary Long to-day stated that the report that he in tended leaving the cabinet was quite true. He said he had fixed upon no spe cific date and he had not yet formally sent his resignation to the president and might not do so for some time. The president, however, was fully aware of his purpose, formed many months ago. Pyle's Condition Again Critical. special to The Journal. Huron S.

Washington, Feb. 21.The house com mittee on territories to-day unanimously voted to report bills for the admission of the territories of New Mexico, Arizona and Oklahoma.

The subcommittees were appointed. FIRE AT WAYZATA Moore's Boat Building- Establish- m e n t Destroyed. Special to The Journal. Wayzata, Minn., Feb. 21.R. C. Moore's boat building establishment, one store house and the barns of John Anderson adjoining, burned at 2:80 this afternoon. The fire is supposed to have started by an explosion in the stove causing the pipes to disjoint upstairs. The loss is about $6,000, partly covered by Insurance. Twenty-five men are out of employment. Four launches under construction n the factory were saved. The storehouse con taining private laurches housed for the winter was saved, the building burned being the lumber storehouse. A 'barn and an icehouse belonging to John Anderson were totally destroyed. DIED ASHE SLEPT Sheriff a n d Coroner of Anoka County Will Investigate. Special to The Journal. Anoka.

EVERINGTON Civil Engineer, Minneapolis Boy and F o r m a University Student, "Who Has Just Been Appointed Second lieutenant ox Artillery by Pres- i d e nt Roosevelt on. Examination, From Th Journal Bureau., Room 43, Fott Building, Washington. Washington, Feb. 21.Attorney Gen eral Knox tells T h e J o u r n a l that there is nothing new to-day in merger matters. He Is getting' the bill of equity in shape and may file it next week... This, however, is not certain. There is no par ticular hurry and he purposes to take his time and so be more sure of having the writ in proper form. He is still uncertain whether or not to bring the suit in Minnesota, but will probably do so unless further investiga tions suggest the greater wisdom of an other course, and if the suit is brought in Minnesota it is likely that District Attorney Purdy will have only nominal connection with it. Pnrdy's "Other F i s h to F r y . " Purdy is a very busy man. The routine business of his office i3 very heavy and he really has more than he can properly do with his present force. Mr. Knox speaks in the highest terms of Purdy's work and other officials of the department say the business in Minnesota has never been handled with more dispatch and ability than at present. The selection of outside counsel to manage the merger suit will therefore be no reflection against Purdy. This suit will require the undivided time of the man who is put in charge of it and if Purdy were selected the regular business, of the district at torney's office in Minnesota would have to be put into newjhands, which would be unwise. At the" same time Purdy knows nothing about the details of the merger question: It will be altogether the proper thing, so the department of justice holds, to leave Mr. Purdy where he now is and put in charge of the mer ger case some expert who has given it careful study. P r e s i d e nt Neither " P r o " Nor "Anti." The impression in-Wall street that the president and attorney general are hos tile to the merger is rapidly disappear ing. A similar feeling in the northwesrt will also disappear. i.The real facts were set forth in these dispatches yesterday. The president is jTli|^a*BrP-W?r'S*r n o anti-merger. H e s a s B'JTprebone'eiy'ed no tions or prejudices.. He simply wants the adequacy of the Sherman anti-trust law tested so that congress and. the people may know where they are at. It Is admitted there will be no further legislation so lomg as no test is made, and it is the president's duty, charged as he is with the execution of the laws, to make that test. His program, therefore, is simply in the line of his official duty and is without prejudice or feeling. New York J o u r n a l i s t ic Verdicts. The mtorning newspapers in New York are editorially taking this view of the case to-day. Here is an excerpt from the leading editorial in the Times: The financiers who have organized the Northern Securities company should welcome the decision of the attorney general to bring them before .the supreme court of the United States for determination of the legality of their action. The stock market may be dis turbed and the authors of this plan of merger may be put to serious inconvenience, but the public welfare, and we think, their own in terests as well, demand an adjudication of the scope of the Sherman anti-trust law. This administration and Its predecessors have been reproached with a willingness to let the Sherman act of 1890 remain a dead letter. . Prosecutions have not been under taken when they seemed to be called for and it has been said that when undertaken they have been conducted In a half-hearted manner. It is characteristic of President Roosevelt that he should refuse to remain quiet under this imputation. He not only has a due re gard for his own reputation, but his mind and his conscience are attentive to considerations of the interests of the people in whatever way they may be threatened. The P r e s i d e nt Unbiased. The Sun thinks that the attorney gen eral should mot have taken "snap^judg ment" on Wall street, but believes the litigation is in the interest of all con cerned and that the president is unbiased. The Sun adds: Incidentally the charge that President Mc Kinley appointed a "corporation lawyer" as attorney general falls to the ground. If there is any politics in the president's move it will be of the larger and broader kind and will help him. The people like a man of courage and conviction in public office, a man who will do his duty without prodding. Neither side can question the president's sin cerity or say that the proposed test is not di rectly in the interest of all concerned. It will illuminate the entire trust question, show the sufficiency or otherwise of existing laws and point the way for congress and, what is of great importance so far as the white house 1 I s concerned, it wil l sho w th e president a s having done his full duty In a fearless, manly i way. It is strange that there should be a feeling in the east that there has been any snap judgment. It was authoritatively announced at the White Hous and at the department of justice more than a month nueo that the attorney general, at the president'-s request, was about to enter upon a thorough investi gation of the merger question and its relation to existing federaf statutes with a view to recommending some kind of action. The in vestigation was prosecuted end on Wednes day the attorney general was ready to an nounce its result together with the president's instructions. The successive steps have been logical and some announcement was to have been expected, else why the investigation? It would have been a serious matter for the ad ministration to have refused to act in a case involving the intersts of half a dozen states on the one hand and many millions of capital on the other. The charge of cowardice would have attached to the president for he would have failed to rise equal to a* great oppor tunity. Capital Concensus. These are the lines along which com ment is directing itself to-day in Wash ington. The president is emerging from the flurry with a distinct gain in .prestige and honor, for everybody concedes the purity of his motives and his disinter estedness. He is as much the president of Wall street as of the people of Minne sota. He wants full Justice done to both sides, refusing himself to become a par tizan or to take a paxtizan stand. He realizes that this is a question for the judicial branch of the government, not for the executive. His act is simply one of plain routine duty. He places the o o : The Minnesota State Editorial asso- : : ciatiion adjourned at 3 o'clock this l : afternoon after electing officers as l'ol- : : lows: : : President, Joseph Leicht, Winona : : Herold. : : First vice president.

The state as sociation refused to go into the insurance business at this morning's session. The association went on record in no uncertain manner when the resolution of H. S. Saylor of Buffalo looking to the establishment of.a mutual fire insurance association under editorial auspices was given a hard turn-down. Mr. Saylor's resolution favored the appointment of a oommittee of three with authority to in corporate such an association "after in surance to the amount of $100,000 on ma terial and printing office buildings owned toy "publishers of newspapers in Minne sota has been subscribed." The resolu tion also provided that the committee be authorized to draw funds not to ex ceed $100 from the association treasury. C. F. Macdonald of the St. Cloud Times led the opposition to the resolution, which was 'defeated by an easy majority. He believed it would be a grave mistake for the editorial association, which was orbers ganized primarily for social purposes, to stand sponsor for an insurance company. HOUSE READY TO PASS THE BILL Adjournment Wa s All That Pre- vented Its Passage at This Morning's Session. Work on Amendments Is Practically DoneOpposition o f Rural Mem bers Virtually Ceases. **- I Continued on Second Fa*T. ..^tateVii JOSEPH LEICHT. The new President of the State Editorial As sociation. It should bs the sole Business aim of the association to secure favorable printing legislation. It was a well-known fact that the only reliable insurance to be obtained at present was through the old stock companies. Life insurance companies founded on the assessment principle had all gone to pieces. C. S. Mitchell, of the Alexandria Post News, Eaid that if certain editors wished to start an insurance association there was no reason why thesr should not re ceive the indorsement of the editorial as sociation. But he was opposed to - any such corporation being fathered by the association. His experience had been that it was good business policy to get his insurance from agents of well-established companies which advertised with him in return. Frank Day. of the Fairmont Sentinel, was in favor of any movement intended to defeat the insurance trust. An insur ance adjunct to the association, he was convin6ed, would subordinate the real purpose of its existence and bring about disorganization. P. V. Collins, of Minneapolis Skorde nrannen, said that the organization oc cupied a distinct position among other fraternal bodies as the State Editorial association. The more closely the Idea implied in the Darne wa adhered to the stronger the association would be. He saw no objection to the circulation of a paper favoring the project among its friends, but those back of the movement should assume the responsibility, financial and 'otherwise. This led Mr. Saylor to remark that while he had belonged to the association for seven years he had never received any substantial business benefit from his membership. "If we've got brains enough tc publish papers," he said, "we ought to be able to do some business once in a while." Mr. Macdonald declared that the manday from Buffalo was mistaken. He was sure that the assocatlon had been of consider able financial benefit to its members if only through its influence in securing tho publication of laws. Even now, (he point ed out, the association had a committee before the legislature, whose object was to increase the revenues o! printers. The association adopted a resolution heartily seconding the invitation extended to the National Educational association to meet in: Minneapolis In June, 1902, and pledged itself to co-operate with Minne apolis in the entertainment of the asso ciation during the convention and in the side trips to follow throughout the state and northwest. Another resolution, - which was unanimously adopted, heartily approved and Indorsed the position taken by Ed win C. Madden, third assistant postmaster general, in relation to the correction of abuses in second-class mail matter, and recommended that the privilege to legitimate papers, of sending sample copies should not be interfered with. A copy of the resolutions will be sent to Mr. Madden and to the state's representa tives in congress. Frank S. Verbeck of Chicago, a former member of the association, who ie attend ing a meeting for the flrsf time in eleven years, gave some Interesting recollections of the old days.

The house had almost finished work on amendments this morning and friends of the bill hoped to bring it to a final vote before night. That Vote would have passed the bill. - ( " "' Enemies of the bill knew that delay was their only hope. They supported a motion to adjourn until Monday morning. Many country members wanted to take afternoon frains for home and voted with them. An amendment by Mr. Plowman was pending, but owing to the death of his brother, he was absent in Minneapolis. This influenced some votes. The adjourn ment was carried68 to 35and the mem scattered to the four points of the compass this afternoon. The" panic among the country members has blown over. They came wheeling back In line this morning, agreeing to support a compromise bill. They planned to reconsider the Wallace amendments this afternoon, but gave over the idea. There was no prospect of overturning the compromise, and they concluded to stand for the bill without further complaint. Governor G. S. Ives of the tax commis sion convinced several this morning that their fears were groundless. He explains that the only effect the Wallace amend ments are likely to have is to prevent getting at money in banks. There are plenty of drastic features left by which the tax commission and the county supervisors can get at the large city interests. He convinced them that if even real estate valuations in the country are increased enough personal property will be brought out in the cities to keep up the equilibrium. The state tax being only one-tenth'of the average total levy was too small a matter to quarrel about any way. So the bill had plenty of votes to-day. The democratic members are lining up against it. They are echoing Mr. Sageng't. slogan, "unholy compromise," and de clare that the Wallace amendments are an unnecessary concession. Even with their support not more than forty votes would have been cast against the bill to-day. If it is lost Monday it will be on account of fine work during the twosessed. and a half days' recess. Those members who stay in town will be "jollied" inces santly and delays are always dangerous. The house has practically settled all the Important questions involved in the bill. Mr. Laybourn failed this morning in his attempt to insert clauses exempt ing grain stored in elevators in transit. It was contended by Mr. Jacobson that under decisions by other states such grain is exempt anyway, and that the law should not make such a concession to any interest. Mr. Sander attempted to reduce the salary of the tax commis sioners from $3,000 to $2,400, but failed. The amendments pending are compara tively unimportant. The one introduced by Mr. Plowman restores the state board" of equalization in place of the permanent tax commission. It is not likely to pass. The other amendments on the table are from Messrs. Deming, Haugland and Bury. The senate adjourned until Tuesday morning. Having cleaned up its calendar there seemed to be no necessity for sit ting Monday, but if it had not been for this action the house might have held an afternoon session to-day. This would have sent th e bill into the senate Mon day morning. Prospects are said to be good for the passage of the compromise bill in the upper house. The house Judiciary committee voted to to submit constitutional amendments in the restricted-form. Mr. Roberts tried to get a vote for the wide-open system recommended by the tax commission, but failed five to eight. State Auditor Dunn urged that the constitution should speci fy exemptions. A sub-committee was ap pointed to draft a bill and report Monday noon. It consists of Messrs. Dunn, Rob erts, Hickey and Anderson. It is under stood that the frill will provide amend ments to'the constitution, declaring for an income 'tax, for a inheritance tax, for an exemption of $300 on household fuirn-iture, and for a license tax on mortgages in lieu of other taxation. Amendments Shaped Up. The form of the new constitutional amendments is practically agreed on. The house judiciary committee at noon took a final vote as to whether the consti tution should be wide open or whether the power of the legislature to make ex emptions should be restricted by placing certain exemptions in the constitution. State Auditor Dunn argued for the re - stricted policy. Mr Roberts supported the wide-open plan advicated by the tax commission, but was beaten five to eight, two members being absent.' A subcommittee was appointed to draft a. bill, consisting of Messrs. Dunn, Rob erts, Hickey and Anderson. The subcom mittee this afternoon agred to a pro vision for an income tax on securities and on salaries. Securities are to be ex empted from other taxation. An exemp tion of $300 is to be allowed on the per sonal property of each head of a family. Section 1 will include a provision that the power of taxation shall never be aurrendeMd, suspended of contracted , away* Tbe local option feature ot the, tax commission amendments is stricken out. This subcommittee will report Monday noon to the full committee and the bill will be reported out to the house as soon as the tax bill is disposed of. IN SANGUINARY MOOD :.3*f 'I The House Devotes Much Time to Killing Amendments. The tax bill was taken up by the house this morning considering the amendments offered yesterday. Mr. Roberts presented an amendment striking out of the franchise provisions the water power companies. Mr. Dobbin opposed it. Mr. Roberts accused Mr. Dobbin of wanting to make the bill as bad as possible. The bill as it stood would work injustice to the small water power companies. Mr. Dobbin returned that he believed the corporations could take care of them selves. He objected to the Imputation of bad faith, and declared that he Intended and expected to vote for the bill. The amendment was voted down. Sev eral verbal corrections proposed by Mr. Roberts were adopted. His amendments to section 165 passed without question. They remove the main objections raised by county auditors, as to the increased ex pense of the new system of collecting taxes. They provide for paying taxes by' mail. Mr. Jacobson objected to section 226v providing that interest, penalties and costs should be distributed to the towns. He thought it Bhould go to the county revenue fund, and was directed, to prepare an amendment. The house" turned down another axaend* ment by Mr. Roberts, giving corporations an opportunity to state what portion of their income was derived from the en joyment of their franchises. Mr. Sander offered an amendment cut ting the salary of the permanent tax com missioners from $3,000 to $2,400. He held that their duties would not take more than six months. Messrs. Dobbin, John son and Peterson all opposed it. The last named said the tax commissioners of Wis consin got $5,000. The efficiency of the law depended largely on the character of the men secured. The amendment was voted down. Grain Amendments Considered. - Mr. Laybourn then called up his amend ments excepting from taxation grain in transit or temporarily stored. The first considered was an amendment to subdi vision 17 of section 31, adding the words: Provided, however, that all grain in any elevator held temporarily, and in transit to points outside the state, shall not be BO as- Mr. Peterson suipcrted the amendment, saying it was only holding to decisions of the courts. Mr. Hickey said it would exempt every bushel of arain n ele\ators. Mr. Sagery demanded if it would not release 6very bushel of grain, except that in the farm ers' graneries. This Mr. Laybourn de nied. He said the only reason for offer ing the amendments was to make de cisions by the Minnesota courts unneces sary. An attempt to tax the grain would temporarily cripple the grain interests cf Duluth. Mr. Jacobson objected to putting such an exemption in tho code. , He thought the grain interests could take care of themselves. The new code did not change the old law, of which they never com plained. Mr. Dunn called attention to the fact that under the item of deductions from credits, one of the Wallace amendments adopted yesterday authorized Ihe deduc tion of $300 worth of grain held for sale by the producer. The Laybourn amendment was voted down, viva voce. A series of amendments by Mr. Johnson was taken up. One was passed, provid ing for filling a vacancy in the office of county supervisor of assessments. An other amendment increased the number of sureties on the bond of that official. The house voted down a third, increasing the amount of his bond from $5,000 tc $10,000. and another raislnig bis pay from $4 to '6 a day. Mr. Johnson offered another Increasing the limit of tax rate for road and bridge purposes in any town from 5 Co 10 mills. This was also lost. Mr. Jacobson's amendment, relating to the distribution of interest, penalties and costs, was then carried. It turns all these proceeds into the county revenue fund. Mr. Haugland offered an amendment giving the county clerk a fee of 15 cents for enterng each judgment, the fee to be added to the judgment. Mr. Wells of fered an amendment providing that in Hennepin and Ramsey this fee should go - to the county. To Meet Again Monday. J. A. Peterson moved a recess till 2 p. VL.
