Almost tna en tlra session of the eenata today waa deroted to the dlacuaaton of the omnlbua atatehood bill. Early In the morning Mr. Quay (Pa.) aub mltted a report of hla own and Ha rnadlng lasted until I, when the atatehood bill waa laid before the aenate. Ita reading waa be gun Immediately, and waa followed by the reading of the eubstltute. Mr. Bevei-idge (Ind.), chairman of, the committee on ter rltorlea, then presented the committee re port glrlng the reaaona for recommending Joint atatehood of Oklahoma and Indian Territory, and for not farorlng the omnlbua bill. In between the aenate paaaed a bill re funding certain revenue 'axes to owners of private dlea and relieving Importers from the duty on tea placed In bonded ware houses. Juat before the adjournment Mr. Nelson (Minn.) secured permission to withdraw the substitute In order to perfect It. Mr. Quay promptly Instated that It should be sent back to the committee, but the chair ruled against him. When the senate convened today Mr. Quay (Pa.) submitted a number of resolutions of citizens of Oklahoma favoring the omnlbua atatehood bill and protesting against Joint gtatehood with the Indian Territory. A wave of laughter swept over the cham ber when the clerk read one telegram which expressed the opinion that Joint Statehood for Oklahoma would make It hopelessly democratic." Mr. Quay an nounced that he had sent It to the desk by mistake. Mr. Quay submitted an Individual report favoring the passage of the omnibus state hood bill and opposing the one state bill of the majority committee on terrltorlea. At 2 o'clock the atatehood bill waa taken up and read at length. 1 Mr. Bacon (Oa.) offered an amendment (hanging the name of the proposed state from Oklahoma to "Jefferson." Report Opposes Statehood. Mr. Beveridge, chairman of the senate eommlttee on territories, presented the re port of the majority of committee against the omnibus bill for the admission of Okla homa, Arizona and New Mexico as states and In support of the sub-bill reported by the committee for the admission of one State to embrace the area covered by the two territories of Oklahoma and Indian tar; rltor.'

GROW SPEAKS OF LABOR Veaerakle Representative Inn la (.atrial Teaee Through Pro.t Sharing: Behesne. WASHINGTON. Dec. 10. The feature of the bouse proceedings today was a thought ful speech by Mr. Galusba A. Grow (Pa.) on the situation between labor and capital. At the end of the preaent session he will retire, at the age of 79. after a public career extending over half a century. His speech today was consequently regarded as his valedictory and waa listened to with close atentlon. His conclusion was that some sort of' co operation between labor and capital was the only solution of the problem. A bill was passed designed to relieve tea importers from the effect of the recent decision imposing a 10 per cent duty on tea Imported in bond prior to January, 1, 1903. Another bill to refund-the duties col lected on merchandise from Porto Rico and the rblllpptnea during the period between ratification of the treaty of Paris and tht congressional revenue acts slao waa passed. Argues Proflt Sharl.a;. After disposing of the tea duties and bill refunding Porto Rlcan and Phllllptne payments the house went back into commit tee of the whole and entered upon the. cod' alderatlon of the bill for the distribution of the president's message. This course was pursued to permit Mr. Grow (Pa.), the venerable r, ex-speaker, t jnaka some 're marks. For years it, has been Mr.) Crow's custom te take this opportunity to make a speech on the state of the unton. Today he discussed principally the rela tions of labor and capital In the United States. He said In part: A labor strike in an unequal contest at best. It Is a contest of endurance between hunger and thirst of the .human stomach and the Income of CHpltal.. CaDitnkln such conteets loses none of Its accumulation of wealth, unless an Industry Itself should be destroyed; and In such a caw labor would be the areatest sufferer. The Income of capital would be temporarily lessened. That wojld be all. The existence of labor Itself Is dependent upon constant employment ana Its condl tlon cannot be lmoroved bv Idleness or bv lawless violence or a disregard of the rights of law abiding citizens. The obligations of both capitalists and laborers, like that of all citizens, is to promote the general wel fare, or at least to do nothing to its In jury. Borne method or profit sharing- between employers and employes that would secure a harmonious co-operation of both, so as to prevent strikes and Improve the condition of labor. Is of vital importance to the genr eral welfare, for the pillars of the republic rest upon the comfort of the home and the happiness of the fireside of labor. Upon motion of Mr. Hepburn (la.) the bill to prevent the misbranding and adul teration of food In the District of Colum bia and the territories (a pure food bill) was made a special continuing order until disposed of, the order not to interfera with appropriation bills. Several minor bills were passed by unani mous consent. One of the bills was to con firm the title of Nellie Ett Heen, the Cau casian wife of a Chinaman, to a homestead, entry in South Dakota. Heen made, entry in 1895 to 160 acres, being In, ignorance of the law which prevented hlnj from acquir ing citizenship., Subsequently he died. Ills wife carried out ( the provlsjons of the homestead .and the bill confirms her title. The house thyn jadjourosvd. ,74.

EXPLOSION OF STEAM TABLE OreAtei lorn 8 Oommotisn in ee Buildiig, but Injures Ho Out. SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVE NARROW ESCAPES Crash Is Caasea by Baratlnar ef Steam Pipe 1st Stereotypies Department, Where Dam a a-e Amoaata to Five Tlaadred Dollars. The explosion of a steam table In the stereotyping department of The Bee shortly before noon yesterday completely wrecked the table, tore the plastering from the cell ing of the office directly beneath and came near being of serious consequences to three men who were In the stereotyping room and two women In the office below. The acci dent was caused by the breaking of a steam pipe. At the time the table exploded Foreman S. L. Rowzee and William McKenna of the stereotyping department were each work ing on opposite sides of it. Without the slightest warning the table was rent in sev eral pieces, followed by a deafening report and clouds of steam which filled the room. Flying pieces of the debris struck the two employes, who miraculously escaped seri ous, 'If not fatal. Injuries. McKenna had a most remarkable escape, as the heavy legs of the table just grazed his clothing, while the top of the table struck Rowzee a glancing blow on the leg as It whizzed past him., John Fleming, a visiting stereotyper, who was In the room at the time and stand ing in close proximity to the exploding table, waa also uninjured. To add to the excitement,' the escaping steam caused con sternation for a time. Women Have Close Call. Directly beneath the stereotyping depart ment. In room 618, two people had very narrow escapes. The force of the explosion was downward, which caused the plaster and fireproof filling of the floor to give way and crash to the suite occupied by Miss A. Mayer, manufacturer of the Re-No-May preparations. Mies Mayer chanced to be standing at her desk at the time of the accident and the debris dropped with force to the floor of the room within a few feet of her. She had moved from the spot where the wreck age fell Just a second or two before the crash came. Miss Mayer's maid was Just returning from an errand and had opened the door to s'tep into the office when the explosion happened. She was about to walk to Miss Mayer's side at the time and would have been caught directly beneath the debrta had the accident happened a few sec onds later. Escaping steam from the .pipes In the room above' added to the fright of the two women. The force of the explosion was heard on several floors and caused some consterna tion among the occupants of the building. The loss1 In the stereotyping room alone Is estimated to amount to about $500. One other steam table, standing near the one which exploded, is thought to be damaged. Repairs will be completed at once. How to Avoid the Dangers of a Cold.

Joseph Condon This dramatic ' adaptation from "The Heart of Navarre," rendered last night by the undergraduates of Creighton university for the benefit of the students' library fund, was greeted with a house larger than usual at such entertainments, and all of those who attended seemed well . satisfied with the production, which exhibited care tul study and attention. The plot In the drama eenters around the efforts of Etlenne, Cojnte de Mar, son. of the duke ef St. Quentln, to recover a son who has been stolen In Infancy, and in that the main plot departs from the plot of the 'novel. In the hands of the students the story was developed with vigor and nicety . The leading character in the play is Felix Broux, the supposed son of a Plcardy farmer, who is the son which is sought by the comte. In the hands of Milton Duggan It was a' character which, while at first of questionable strength, developed' rapidly the closer to nature for the development, probably. D.' J.. Hurley, as Etlenne and James M. n tiger aid as Paul de Lorraine the heavy 'villain, won much applause,' the work of the latter being particularly strong, while the impersonation of an Italian goldamth by Hurley, and his change to the character of the Comte de Mar,, was as fine a bit of acting as was ever seen upon an amateur stage.' With such a large cast It was remarkable that throughout the entire play there was not one who mlssedV a cue or forgot a Una. The work of Montgomery. and also of Mer ton was strong in the it get, where, the fortunes of the ''league" reach the lowest point and the league Is on the eve ef din solution... The character of Peyrot, as ren dcred by Joseph Sullivan.- showed a ten dency to approximate the character of la go, but was none the worse for that. The orchestral sslections between . the sets were a very ', pleasing feature of. the evenlng'a entertainment. Admirers of , number ef the actors presented their favorites with flowers during the course of the performance, and these were duly ac knowledged before the curtain. At the Boyd. "A Thoroughbred Tramp," Elmer Wal ters' contribution to the literature of the hobo, made its annual one-night appear ance at the Boyd last evening. It has changed none since Its last appearance here; melodrama changes only In details, and never in methods or results, but still retains an eminent place among plays of Its kind. Villainy that stops at nothing Is opposed by virtue that suffers long and Is patient through trials that would dis hearten anyone who didn't know that it was coming out all right in the end, and over all and through all is the pervading presence of T. Rush Thompson, P. B., who Is not only the real thing, but Is there with the goods Just at the right time in each of the many crlaes with which the play abounds. And as he Joyously baffles the rogue who prepares all the trouble, he Is cheered and applauded and the people down In front finally go home, aatisfl'd that they have tad their money's worth. It was so in the beginning, is now and ever shall be. A Pare Malt Extract. Malt-Nutrlne stands upon its merit. It is the condensed nutriment of pure malt refreshing and strengthening.
