Washington (D. C), Xec. 7.
The influence of President Roose
velt is being felt in the statehood
fight in the Senate, although there
has been no public statement of the
President's attitude. He has talked
with several Senators on the propo
sition and told them all that after
long-continued consideration he had
reached the conclusion that Okla
homa was the only territory' at

New York, Dec. 4. It comes
from high authority that a survey
for a new railroad line from Salt
Lake City to San Francisco has
been completed; that the, purvey
marks out a route 150 miles shorter
than the Southern Pacific, and that
the projected line can be built at a
cost as low as $20,000 a mile.

been iuclincd to favor the admission
of all three territories, but, that a
study of conditions in New Mexico
and Arizona had convinced him
that the time had not yet arrived
for taking the irrevocable stcp'of
admitting ihew to statehood.
The President's arguments against
admitting New Mexico are that the
population of the Territory is back
ward, both in learning the English
language and in active participation
in political life: the courts, he had1
noted, arc conducted largely in
Spanish for the convenience of the
population. As for Arizona, the
President believes that the agricul
tural resources of the Territory
have been developed quite fully,
and not many more people may be.
expected to settle there to till the
soil, especially In view of the fact
that the land left available is arid,
and can only be developed by costly'
irrigation works. The mining
regions of Arjzona, while they are
now at the height of prosperity,
may not always be so, and the pop
ulation of mining regions is always
unstable.
President Roosevelt's views are
being made known quietly to a
number of Senators who showed'1
signs of favoring the, omnibus bill'
and the result has been to make,
them pause and consider. Senator
Quay claimed to have eighteen Re
publican Senators on his side last
week. His latest claim, it is un
derstood, is fourteen, and when the
list of the fourteen was shown to
advocates of the substitute bill they
challenged three names Piatt of

and Clark of Wyoming. Scott, is
unquestionably in favor of the Ok
lahoma bill.
tors. The idea also suggests itself
that this new line may have con
nection with the San Francisco
Terminal and Ferry Company
which recently reached the water
front of San Francisco bay at Oak
laud, and, according to yesterday's
dispatches, is preparing to build
from Stockton to Sacramento and
through Bcckwith Pass eastward.'
' More than usual significance at
taches to the fact that this survey

feeling "between Gould and Harri
nlan. If Gould's Denver and Rio
Grande were to be extended to San
Francisco ovsr a route 150 miles
shorter than the Southern Pacific
between Salt Lake and San Fran
cisco, the proposition would be a
difficult one for the Union Pacific
to meet; It is possible the new
route referred to was part of the
Gould-St. Paul plan entertained
previous to the surrender by the
Union Pacific to the St. Paul of the
through traffic privileges asked by
Ithe latter. The St. Paul, it will be
remembered, was about to close an
agreement with the Missouri Pacific
when Harriman reconsidered his
i'refusal to accommodate the St.
Paul.

School Girls Last Lesson Sheds
Light on l'rocess.
Today a little girl, Mary Aylett,
by name, is probably wondering
what became of her lesson which
she did at home yesterday and took
so much pains to write nicely. It
is a composition on tapa written in
a fair round hand on a nice clean
piece of paper. It was picked up
ig front of the Bulletin office this
morning and a true copy of it
follows:
Mary Aylett. Dec. 16, '02.
The pau-pau is a quilt. Wheu
you first make a quilt you must cut
the bark of a certain tree then take
it and pound it very hard. Pouud
it every day for a week, then dry
it out for two or three days. After
it is dried pound it again for three
days and then dried again. Three
times you must do this. After it is
done they take this down to the sea
and spread it over a stone then
pound it and putting some sea
water on it they lay this quilt be
tween some stones so the sea will
not wash it away. For three weeks
they take it out and they will put
some sweet odor on it and then
dry it out. Wheu this is done
they take it and use it.
The tapa beaters are made of
wood and some are made of stoue.
Some tapa beaters have many designs
on them. This also use for pound
ing the pau-pau. The round tapa
beater are used for pounding the
bark and the tapa beater which has
many designs on them are used
when the quilt is done to make
designs on them.
The war-mask are generally used
by the chiefs at war. It is made of
koa wood.
The hammer or hatchets which
the old Hawaiian used were made
of stone. The handle is wood and
the rest of it are made of black
plain stone and a rigged stone.

Berlin, Dec. 4. In the event of
Dr. von Holleben's retirement as
Embassador at Washington, which
is considered possible within a year,
Emperor William's choice of his
successor is Prince Henry of Pless.
The Prince returned from the
United States, where he attended
the opening of the new building of
the Chamber of Commerce, keen
for the appointment at Washington
if it occurs. His desire was con
veyed to the Emperor, who ap
proved of it. His majesty attaches
considerable importance to the
social side of the Embassy at Wash
ington and considers that the
wealthy Prince and Princess of
9
Pless are especially fitted to dis
pense German hospitality at that
capital,
The Pless family is powerful and
the matter will not be allowed to
rest. Prince Henry of Pless only
left the diplomatic service because
of former Chancellor von Caprivi's
ruling that anyone marrying a
foreigner must resign his post.
Prince Henry of Pless married in
1 89 1 Miss Daisy Cornwallis-West,
one. of the daughters of Mrs.
Cornwallis-West, who was a noted
English beauty.
