Washington, Jun. can leaders in tho senate nro preparing to push their propositions for tho admis sion of Arizona and New Mexico as one state, an;l tho union of Utah to Nevada. Mr. Platt, of Connecticut, is in charge of the matter. Political oil vantage is their object.

Tho majority of tho senate committco on territories is likely to go slowly in disposing of theso questions. Tho bilb relatiug to the territories will not bo taken up for several weeks, and full in vestigation of tho wholo subject will bo made.

Tho only one, however, in which the flames gained a footing was a 4-story brick structure adjoining the scenery room of tho theatre and formerly occu pied as a Residence by John Stetson and which is now occupied by the Globe theatre cafe and tho club room of the Massachusetts Yacht club. The building was badly damaged by fire and smoke. The roof of the theater fell in at 1:45. The work of the firemen was hindered for a time by trolley wires.
