The Western Nevada mid-summer celebration will be held at Virginia this year. For several months the matter has been under consideration on the Comstock and last evening a num.

i ber of prominent cisizens issued a call for a mass meeting to be held next Monday evening to take the steps nec-: essary to such a May Bs Golden Jubilee Tle people of the Comstock are opposed to holding a street fair or carnival, most of them favoring a gold-i en jubilee of the Comstock's discov-; ery. They argue, however, that Virginia cannot afford to give such a cel- ebratkm except in a fitting manner and therefore the matter of cost and funds will have to be seriously con-; sidered. There is every indication that the celebration, which will be' held early in July, will be a Comstock jubilee and that it will be one of the grea't-; est ever held in the state, Reno, Carson, Sparks and the other Western Nevada cities recognize Virginia's claim to the celebration this year and there will be no public functions in any of these cities that will interfere.

PORTLAND, March 9. A dispatch to the Telegram from Eugene, states that Chief of Police Joseph S. Stiles committed suicide last night by shooting himself in the head. His body was found early today in an old tannery building on the outskirts of the city. Stiles was 50 years old, a man of family and a member of the Christian church.

The cause of the deed is supposedly in connection with investigations of the grand Jury in regard to a statutory combined with' the giving of liquor to young girls. Constable Virgil Rowland was indicted last night as a result of these investigations, and it is asserted that other indictments are probable. WASHINGTON, March 9. Professor William H. Burr continued his testimony today before the senate committee on Inter-oceanic canals; He again spoke in favor of the contrapt plan of building the canal.

The committee evinced great interest in statements, that a sea level canal could be enlarged economically to meet any demands of increased commerce of the future. GOVERNOR SPARKS YOUNG MACKAY Thanking Him in Name of the People for the Proposed Memorial to -His Father, Governor. John Sparks yesterday sent to Clarence Mackay, of New Tork, a letter accepting cm behalf of the state the statue that young Mackay proposed to erect within the new state library building at The letter does not mention the governor's previously expressed objection to a statue which shall portray the features of the elder Mackay. The letter follows: Carson. Nevada.

March Sth. Clarence Mackay, president Postal Telegraph Company and Commercial Cable New Tork City. Dear sir: I desire on behalf of the citizens of Nevada to thank you for the generous way in which you have met the suggestion of the state to erect a statue within its borders typical of our great mining industry and I feel that as a memorial to your late father it will meet the warm approval of the citizens of Nevada, whose mines he was such a factor in developing. On behalf of the state and the people I accept the noble gift and will assure you tha it will be placed In a position commensurate with its importance as a work of art. Respoetifully yours, JOHN SPARKS, Governor.

BORGLUM FAVORS AN OPEN AIR BRONZE CARSON, Nevada, March 9. At the meeting held last evening in the opera house to hear an address by Gut-zon Borglum, the Danish sculptor sent here to design and erect the proposed Mackay statue, the young man talked to about three hundred interested men and woman. Nearly all of the state officials were at the gathering including Governor Sparks, and several of the other ca-pitol commissioners. Borglum emphasized his opinion that the statue should be placed in the open air and not within the library building. The latter position he considered entirely too inconspicuous.

He said the city should acquire a block of land, place the statue within it and then convert the block into a public park. He spoke for about fifteen minutes upon the subject. At the conclusion of the meeting a committee was appointed to ascertain the locality and cost of sites suitable for such park. AMERICANS AND FILIPINOS KILLED (Continued From Page One) the compaign, not the beginning of new trouble. "This encounter has no bearing on the Philippine situation.

The Moros are religious fanatics and are not amenable to the influences of other peoples. They owe no allegiance except to their Mohammedan faith, and are liable to cause trouble at any time. Their acts have no relation to the conduct of the Filipinos that the Apache outbreaks of former days in Arizona, with the situation in other states and territories. "No man can tell what the Moros are going to do. They are just as likely to fight among themselves as to attack others.

When the inspiration comes uion him he runs amuck and kills all he can. This condition has al-existed, and, propably always will, until the race becomes extinct. However, we are now educating many of their children and from this enlightened generation there may spring a new and better type of Moro. "Probably there are about 5000 Moros in the island of Jolo. The nura on Mindanao has been estimated as high as 40,000, but it is impossible to obtain a census, and this figure may be much exaggerated.

"I do not anticipate that this fatal encounter will materially change the situation. Certainly it will not effect the Filippinos, who are loyal and satisfied with the conditions surrounding them."

m9w IS FOUND SLEEPING UNDER HIS WAGON Jimmie Ennis Gets Too Drunk to Work and Allows Team to Stand in Sun for Hours, Jimmie Ennis, a teamster hauling the old lumber from the site of the government building, got too drun to work this morning and after loading his wagon with old boards, laid down by the side "of it and drifted off into slumber land. He slept from 8 o'clock this morning until 1 o'clock this afternoon, when Captain Alter and Officer Meffiey spied him and took him to the city jail. He was too drunk to remember what he had been doing and was unable to tell who he was driving for. He had a beer check in his pocket and complained of a terrible thirst, but he was too full to find a saloon and could only lie in the sun and dream of the drink he might have if he could only walk far enough to spend that beer check. After locking Ennis up in the city jail the officers put the team in a stable, where it will be held until the owner goes afier it.

The horses stood in the hot sun all morning and would have been standing there yet had the officers not located the driver lying drunk under the wagon. EVEOIOGE ON STATEHOOD BILL Popular Statesman Whose Book is One of the Best Sel lers, Tells Why New Mexico and Arizona Should Be State WASHINGTON, March 9. Owing to the fact that the senate took- a recess instead of adjourning last night Mr. Beveridge was enabled to proceed with his speech in support of the joint statehood bill when today's session began at 11 o'clock. There was a much better attendance than at the opening yesterday.

Mr. Peveridge took up his argument where he left off yesterday contending that the necessity for interpreters for the benefit of the Mexican population was rapidly passing and arguing that very little attention should be given to the pledge for statehood given "when the territory of Arizona was created because it had been given as the result of fraudulent representations. One on Beveridge. "I too have 'received hundreds of messages on the subject of statehood," responded Mr. Foraker.

One of them from a genllemkn who gives his name and who says that a telegram signed by the senator from Indiana is being circulated in Arizona in favor of statehood. The announcement created a laugh at Mr. Beveridge's expense and in which he joined. He said he knew nothing about the telegram. The telegrams were not read.

Mr. Beveridge was liberally applauded by the galleries when he concluded. The legislative session of Thursday came to an end at 12 o'clock and the session today was commenced at once. Under the head of morning business Mr. Beveridge read a number of telegrams in support of the statehood bill but Mr.

Teller objected on the ground that they should come in properly as a part of the discussion of the statehood bill. Mr. Beveridge then stated that he had received hundreds of messages, most of them from Arizona, urging joint admission. Speeches were made by other senators as follows: Mr. Spooner, saying that Mr.

Beveridge's speech was at variance with the former representatives of the committee on territories; Mr. Nelson, advocating the union of Arizona and New Mexico as the1 best plan for the Americanization of New Mexico; Mr. Teller, Mr. Hopkins, Mr. Hansbrough, Mr.

Gallinger, Mr. Hepburn, Mr. Clark Mr. Dillingham and Mr. Carter, who said that he was unalterably opposed to the coercion of any body of American citizens, much as he would like to vote for a bill supported by the president and a Republican house of representatives.
