To guard against this chance let every Democratic member be present when the ballots for Senator are taken.” Ac was issued to-night by the Republican State executive committee for a mass convention of Republicans in this city next Monday to protest against the attempt to defeat Benator Hanna. .

President Should Bid the Full Value on the | Kansas Pacific. | Temporary Government Own- ership of the Road Would Do No Harm. | LINE OF ACTION AHEAD.| Hepburn Will Press the Bill Provid- ing for a Cabinet Commission to Settle Debts. Epectal Dispatch to The Call. Call Office, Riggs House, ‘Washington, Jan. 6. The House Committee on Pacific Railroads held its first regular meet- committee were called up in order for | their consideration. Maguire's bill giv- ing the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia exclusive jurisdiction of the foreclosure proceedings was passed | for a week. Hepburn's bill for the set- | g @—g—S—N—S—E——S-1-§-—85-5-8-0-0-&-8-8 tlement of the Sioux City and Pacific | raflroad debt was referred to a sub- | committee, consisting of Hepburn, | Shattuc and Maguire. Hepburn sug-} gested that in former hearings the | present value of this debt was esti- | Maguire said in view of serious error in the estimates concerning the value of the Union Pacific main line at the | former hearings it would be well to re- investigate and revise the estimates on the Sioux City road. This was agreed to. Powers sald he thought this course proper, because the new members of the committee had not had the advan- tage of being present at former hear- ings. The Fleming bill, authorizing the President to bid at his discretion on | | the Kansas Pacific and other Pacific | railroads, was next taken up. Maguire | objected to the provision giving dis- | cretion to the President as to the amoupnt to be bid on behalf of the | Government, and insisted that the President be required by the act to bid an amount sufficient to pay the entire amount to be bid on behalf of the above the first mortgage. Shattuc said that the road was not worth more than $13,000,000 and that | the Government ought not under any circumstances to pay more than that for the road. He was. utterly opposed | to Maguire's plan, because a provision requiring the Government to bear the whole amount, which would be about | 319,000,000, would probably cause the | road to fall into the hands of the Gov- | ernment and establish a pernicious ex- | periment in government ownership, to | which he is opposed. Maguire said he did not view the possibility of government ownership | with any alarm and that as the gov- ernment, in the case of the Kansas Pacific, was bound to lose all of its claim except the portion paid out of the proceeds of the foreclosure sale it | would not cost the government a cent | more to buy the road at $19,000,000 than it would at $13,000,000. So the Presi- dent might as well be required to bid the whole amouat, and in the absence | of a higher bid to reduce the road to government ownership and posses sion. | The road could then, under appropri- | ate legislation (if thought advisable by | Congress), be offered for sale free from the junior incumbrances and complications now effecting it. Fleming said he considered Maguire's objection well taken and would vote | for his amendment to the bill, and that | he had introduced the bill as an urgent | measure desired and, in fact, prepared | by the Attorney-General, to put the | government in a position <o bid at the approaching Kansas Pacific sale, but | that he was satisfled the bill should | be amended in the manner proposed by | Maguire. The bill was then referred to a sub- | committee of three to report at next | meeting. Other bills of minor import- | ance were passed until next week, and | the Hepburn bill, providing for a com- | mission of Cabinet officers to adjust and settle the Pacific railroad debts, | was taken up. Maguire inquired if it was the pur- pose of Hepburn to press its considera- tion. He stated that such was his pur- pose and that as the bill involved a | other | consideration of the whole Paclific rail- road problem, it might as well be con- sidered by the entire committee in the | first instance, instead of being referred | to a sub-committee. After some dis- cussion this was agreed to, but no time | ;\'uls fixed for the consideration of the bill. The statement of Hepburn that he | intends to press the consideration of | this bill is generally accepted as indi- | cating the form that the Pacific rafl- | road fight wiil take in the present Con- gress. HAD NO BEARING UPON SENATORIAL CANDIDATES. LOS ANGELES, Jan. 6.—The annual meeting of the Los Angeles county branch of the National Republican | League was held this evening. It had been Intimated that the annual elec- | tion of officers for the branch would | have some bearing upon the candidacy | of the two aspirants from Los Angeles county for the United States Senator- | ship, Robert W. Bulla and Henry T. Gage, but the fact that officers were elegcted by acclamation as follows dis- sipates this rumor: President, S. M. Haskell, Pomona; ‘secretary, Lester L. Robinson, Los Angeles; first vice-pres- ident, Gilbert E. Overton; second vice- president, Walter F. Haas; third vice- president, James B. Scott; financial secretary, A. J. Wheeler; treasurer, G. M. Giffen. W. J. Variel, R. N. Bulla and R. A. Long delivered addresses. —_— Disappears From San Luis Obispo.

Michael McDonough Refused a License, Mrs. Baker Tries Her Luck. M Sonoma’s County Clerk Must Show Cause Before the Superior Court. | Bpecial Dispatch to The Call. | BANTA ROSA, Jan. 6.—Late this afternoon Michael McDonough, aged 70 years, walked into the County Clerk’s office here and told Mr. Ful- ton that he wanted a license to wed Mrs. Susie Baker, aged 53, who is a | well-known resident of Healdsburg. | Although Mr. McDonough is quite an old man, he looked as if he meant bus- iness, so the County Clerk began mak- ing out the document without further ado. That official asked McDonough a few questions as he proceeded with the work, however, one being whether he or Mrs. Baker had been divorced | within the past year. Upon finding that Mrs. Baker had been granted her freedom from her former spouse only a few months ago, the Clerk refused to proceed further with his partially completed task, on the grounds that a recent law forbids the marriage of persons divorced with- in a year. McDonough stormed, but the Clerk was obdurate, whereupon the old gen- tleman left the Courthouse with blood ROBBED BY A NIGHT CLERK Cash and Bonds Stolen From an Express Office. Valuables Intended for Trans- mission by Train Taken by an Employe. Among the Things Carried Off by the Absconder Are Five Chicago Gas Bonds. Special Dispateh to The Call. NEW YORK, Jan. 6.—The American Express Company was robbed to-day of $10,502, and Clark Braden Jr., a trusted employe, is missing. Central | officers and private detectives are hunting for him. Three days ago the night manager in | charge of the office at Forty-seventh | street and Madison avenue was taken ill, and Braden, a clerk of the company for more than ten years, was temporar- | ily substituted. This office the com- pany uses as a clearing-house for all its matter sent or recelved from the Grand Central station. Among ‘the parcels to be sent out on the 6:30 train | on the Hudson River road this morning were several containing cash to the amount of $5582, and one - containing five $1000 Chicago gas bonds. It was Braden’s place to take these packages | to the train, return to the office and re- main on duty until 7 o’clock. When the day employes arrived Braden was not in the office. The safe was locked. There were no receipts for valuable packages by the morning train, although the books showed that several such parcels had been received at the office. At first the absence of Braden and the receipts were set down to careless- ness. But a few minutes later the leather bags which had contained the packages were found under some other freight. They had been cut open and the money and bonds taken. That the robbery was hastily carried out is shown by the fact that $25,000, | mostly in cash, was left in the safe and | that the bonds were taken. Notices were sent to every bank and financial {nstitution in the country warning them against purchasing the stolen gas bonds. CHICAGO, Jan. 6.—The Chicago po- lice were requested this évening by the Pinkerton Detective Agency to appre- hend Clark Braden Jr., the absconding night clerk of the American Express Company in the New York office. In- stead of a $1,000,000 robbery, as ru- mored at first, the loss suffered by the express company through the clerk’s disappearnace, the Pinkertons allege, $30,000. According to the statement made by the detective agency of the amount taken by Braden $25,000 was in currency, Including five $100 and five $1000 gold bonds of the Consumers’ Gas Company of Chicago.
