Nelson, president of the Oakland Exposition and a leading Republican, says that if the statements of the Examiner d the anonymous Burns man were not so evidently intended to be insulting they could be construed as a compliment to Mr. Wright. “‘Such nonsense is ridiculous,” said Mr. Nelson, “and I cannot see why the Burns people should circulate it. While it is true that the race track representatives have voted for Burns, East Oakland, I believe, has no fear for Mr. Wright. Wk should not a man be shown that his com panionship is not desirable if he be a supporter of Burns? Certainly political ostracism is the inevitable punishment of such betrayal.

Such statements as those published to-day cannot but help Mr. Wright.” { Attorney de Golia, Dr. O. L.

The direct insult to the churchgoers of this city is no doubt Colonel Burns’ re- ply to the resolutions of the Oakland Min- isterial Union condemning Burns as unfit for a United States Senator. sk e BERKELEY’S .

Assemblyman Clark of Santa Clara was told directly that he could not ex-| pect to pass a bill or do anything in| the Legislature for his constituents if he did not at once get into line for Burns. The Assemblyman signified that he had only one important meas- ure to pass, but if necessary he would sacrifice his prospects of its success rather than vote against the will of the people Who sent him to the Legislature. | He reasoned that he had only sixty| days to live in Sacramento, whereas he | expected to pass the rest of his life in | Santa Clara County. He preferred, | therefore, to so conduct himself in the | Legislature that he could go home to| his friends and neighbors and continue to enjoy their confidence and esteem. The readiness of the Grant men toi take a second ballot in joint assembly | to-day seemed to outsiders as an indi- | cation of confidence upon the part of Grant's managers. It was a bluff| rather than a display of confidence. It was known in advance that Burns was | not willing to go ahead on another bal- lot, because his touts failed to con- nect last night on several important | engagements. Burns calculated on ad- ding four votes to his black list, but those who were staked out to be listed | withheld consent. Green and Brown, the Grant colors, then came to the| front, challenging another test of speed. | The Burns oratory to-day was dis- piriting to the touts. Wolfe was lame and Pierce was silly. The Senators and Assemblymen who have consented to stand for Burns were not willing to go ahead with another ballot. Some of them cherish the hope that they will | be released from the “peculiar obliga- tion” to support Dan before the dawn There is no doubt to-night that Judge Dibble, Grove Johnson and several others of the Legislature would like to have a close heart to heart talk with Herrin to convince him of the’ utter folly of prolonging the contest on be- half of Dan Burns. They do not say so, but actions sometimes speak louder than words. NS e o RESOLUTIONS AND | BILLS PRESENTED |Routine Work Dome in Both Housss of the Legis- lature. CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA-| MENTO, Jan. 11.—Two or three bills and a resolution came before the Senate to- | day that are not calculated to bring un- alloyed joy to the people of the State. The bills were sent to committee, while the resolution was promptly strangled, which action is deserving of flattering comment. | One of the bills introduced by Dickinson | provides for the relief of J. N. E. Wilson and his bondsmen, Frank C. de Long and | James D. Byrnes. Wilson, while filling the office of Insurance Commissioner dur- ing Markham’s administration, had on deposit in the Pacific Bank State funds amounting to $2988 41 at the time the Mec- Donalds succeeded in wrecking that insti- ution. Controller Colgan, on behalf of he State, began suit against Wilson and his bondsmen for the recovery of the | money, together with 25 per cent penalty provided for by law on March 1, 1884 Since that date $549 93 has been recovered m the bank. Judgment for the State was given for $4063 82, which judgment the Supreme Court has affirmed. This judg- ment has never been satistied, and now Dickinson asks the Legislature to author- ize the Attorney General to enter satis- | faction of the judgment and appropriate | amount named out of the general fund | hat pur) utler of Yuba also came to the fronmt | to-day, his bill being calculated to nullify | the Belshaw act limiting the number of | attaches of the Senate and Assembly and to provide jobs for the army of hangers- on about town. The bill amends section 245 of the Political Code, which names the | officers and employes of the Senate by | adding af st as it stands at pres-| ent the words “and such other employes as the Senate may deem necessary.” Section , covering the Assembly at- taches, is amended by adding a lot of firemen, electricians and other employes and closing with this joker: “And such | additional employes and attaches as may | be appointed by the Speaker by and with the consent of the Assembly.”” It is the same bill as was introduced in the As- | i . sembly yesterday. Cutter asked that the | Commi on Attaches and Contingent | Expenses, to which the bill was referred, consider it the first thing in the morning. s of Colusa asks the State to ex- | 000 for the care of the insane | prisoners. A bill introduced by him to- | day appropriates that sum for the build- ing and maintenance of a State hospital | on the Folsom Prison grounds for the | confinement and treatment of convicts | who have become insane. The bill was | sent to the Committee on Prisons. | One of the rawest little jobs that is | likely to crop up during the session was | Simpson’s resolution providing for the | purchase of forty-five copies of Henning’s | compilation of the county government act for the use of members and officers of the Senate. The compiler is a Los Angeles | lawyer and has already succeeded in un- | loading_two job lots of his publications | on the Senate this session. But, notwith- ! standing the fact that his edition of the | California Codes of which the Senate pur- chased forty-five copies last week con- | with all the amendments, he sought, through Simpson, to unload another lot It is not likely that any of the Senators would have paid any attention to it had not Simpson insisted upon booming the work as an absolute necessity to the members, Smith of Kern declared that for his part he was tired of appropriating public money for- increasing the member's law library. Davis of Amador called attention to the fact that the act was printed in full in th# edition of the codes tne Senate had just purchased. He sarcastically lauded the Senator from Los Angeles for seeking to help his fellow-townsman along at the e)gi)ense of the State. hen Simpson insisted upon talking some more, despite the apparent weari- ness of his colleagues. e inisted upon their purchasing the work, and babbled an and cu. The resolution was killed by a vote of i noes to 5 ayes. When the Senate met in the morning session Doty, who was on the State Pris- ons Committee, transferred with Bettman, going on the Committee on Municipal Corporations, while Bettman took his place on the Prisons Committee. Stratton presented a memorial from the Society of Pioneers and other societies of San Francisco asking the Legislature to gro\'ide for a_ statue of James Lick in solden Gate Park. Luchsinger offered ‘a resolution setting forth the necessity of keeplnf the nav; yards up to the best possible standard, and requesting the California Congres: slonal delegation to endeavor to secure the i | ent. building of at least one warship at Mare Island. The resolution was sent to the Federai Relations Committee. Leayitt offered a resolution authorizing he Lleutenant Governor to increase the Finance, Commerce and Military commit- | tees by two members each. Referred. Among the bills introduced during the | morning session was one by Braunhart grovldmg for the payment of Police | ourt clerks of San Francisco of $20 a | month, this to include their whole ex- | pense, including stationery, etc. Doint ‘a Tecess was taken In order to per- | mit the Senate to go into joint session | with the Assembly to vote for United | States Senator. After the joint convention the Senate took a recess until 4:30 p. m., at which hour Cutter had his bill amending the Belshaw act ready for introduction. Dickinson reported from the Special Committee on Inaugural Ceremonies that | the committee had approved bills amount- ing to $919: that two bills, one for $41 50 and the other for $248 45. were in process of adjustment. so that the total expense | to the two houses would not exceed $1208 8, while it might be less. Accom- panying the report was a resolution au- | thorizing the committee to draw upon the Senate allowance for $500 at once to pay the wages of certain laborers. The rules were suspended and the resolution and report were both adopted. Louis Piodo, Pacific N. Troutt and Ed ward J. McManimon were appointed stat- utory clerks. The resolutions providing for the payment of $125 for forty-five copies of the constitution and for the re- placing of locks on the members’ desks were adopted. The sergeant at arms was instructed to hunt up the furniture pur- | chased at the last session for use in the committee rooms, including those noto- | rious roll-top desks, and have everything replaced, after which the Senate ad-| Journed. BUSINESS DONE IN 1 THE LOWER HOUSH CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA-| MENTO, Jan. 1l.—Assemblyman Valen- tine of Los Angeles introduced a bill in | the Assembly this morning asking for an appropriation of $150,000 that California might be assured of having an exhibit at the Paris Exhibition in 1900 that the peo- ple of the State will not be ashamed of. Valentine’s bill also called for appoint- ment by the Governor of three commis- sioners, who shall have charge of the work necessary to the gathering together of the exhibit and control of all expendi- | tures. The commission is to be non-parti- san and its members are to be appointed one from the northern, one from the cen- tral and one from the southern part ot the State. The bill is to be of effect im- mediately upon its passage. i Assemblyman Cowan of Sonoma opened a legislative fight against the further im- portation of Japanese laborers and female slaves with a concurrent resolution, the text of which is as follows: “Realizing that the constantly increas-| ing influx of Japanese laborers and tradesmen into the TUnited States of America is inimical to the laboring and | commercial interests of the citizens of the | United States of America, and that im- portation of Japanese females for lewd | purposes Is a menace to the morals of our | comm{nities, therefore be it “Resolved by the Assembly, the Senate | concurring, That our Senators and Rep-| resentatives in Congress are respectfully requested to use their efforts to procure the enactment of such legislation by Con- | gress as will prohibit and restrict the im- | migration of Japanese laborers and tradesmen and Japanese females into the United States of America., s “Be it further resolved that the Chief Clerk transmit by_mall a copy of th resolution to each Senator and Congress- man from California.” Cowan’s resolution was referred to the Committee on Federal Relations, as was the one which followed it, introduced by Assemblyman Morris Brooke of Sacra- mento. Brooke's recent experience with | Dan Burns, in which the Senatorial candi- | date proffered him a gold brick in return for his vote and threatened political an- nihilation if he declined, is_still a sore spot with the Sacramentan. He has come to the conclusion that present day Sen- atorial politics is not just what it ought | to be, and if a concurfent resolution can change it he is going to do it. With this Jaudable object in view he followed | Cowan's measure with a similar one, call- | ing upon California’s representatives in Congress to use all honorable means to bring about the future election of United States Senators by direct vote of the eople instead of by the vote of the g!flle Legislature, as at present. Radcli! of Santa Cruz, who came| pledged to economy, began his campaign this morning by introducing a constit tional amendment that had for its pu: ose the abolition of the State Rallroad gomm!ssmn. It was given its first read- ing and passed to its committee. There were in all 112 bills introduced, read and referred to various committees. Cognizance was taken of the raw scheme being worked by a San Francisco firm of attorneys to milk the State treasury of funds alleged to be due different counties on back taxes. Assemblyman Wade pro- poses to put a stop to it by means of a concurrent resolution notifying Boards of Supervisors that such suits will only amount to great expense to the taxpayers, and requesting those who have already contracted with the attorneys to repud: ate the contract. Dibble of San Francisco was of the opinion that a concurrent reso- | lution would not effect the desired legis- | lation, and that a bill would be necessary, but the matter went to committee in the form in which it was introduced. At 11:30 o'clock a recess was taken for fifteen minutes in order to prepare for the joint session to eome on at noon, and after the Senatorial ballot adjournment was taken on motion of Dibble until to- | morrow at 10 o'clock. NO MORE JILSONS IN THE GRANT CAMP CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA- MENTO, Cal., Jan. 11.—The twenty-seven Senators and Assemblymen who voted for | U. S. Grant on joint ballot to-day will | vote for him again to-morrow. This is what they decided to do in caucus to- night. There are no more Jilsons in the Grant camp-just now, and Governor Gage and the State patronage club cannot be used for the present to drive any more of Grant’s supporters into the Burns camp. All but three of the twenty-seven Grant men were present at caucus this even- ing. Assemblyman Crowder of San Diego County was sick. Assemblyman Cheyno- with of Orange County was detained on | account of sickness in his family. As-| semblyman Merrill was not.there, but he sent word that he would be bound by the action of the caucus. The whole situation was thoroughly dis- cussed by the twenty-four who were pres- Not one of them seemed to be at all disheartened at the situation as it exists. After some considerable talk a resolution was offered and unanimously adopted that those participating in_ the conference would continue to vote for Mr. Grant un- til another caucus was called. If at any time any of the present supporters of Grant desire to be released in order to g0 to the support of some other candidate notice is to be given, a caucus will be called and the legislator desiring to leave Grant will be released. Mr. Grant ad- dressed the caucus, briefly expressing himself as highly satisfied with the re- sult of the first two ballots. He thanked his friends for the support they had given him, and added that he did not propose to ask ani; one to vote for him any longer than he thought there was a prospect for him to be elected. If the time ever ar- rived when it was deemed advisable to withdraw his name, Mr. Grant stated that he was perfectly wuling to step aside and ermit any gentleman they might select o take his place. | Mr, Grant's remarks were received with satisfaction by his supporters, and they all reaffirmed their loyalty to him and their intention to remain true to his standard. The caucus decided to make an effort to secure an expression of some kind from | the Republicans of Siskiyvou county as to | whether or not the action of Assembiy- | man Jilson is deserting Grant and going | o‘\;elr to the sluppnrt of Burns met with their approval. The chucus then adjourned, to meet n on the call of any of Mr. Grant's supporters. His managers were very hap- py at the results accomplished by the conference, for it was an assurance to them that their strength is not to be broken for a while at least, and any ad- ditional votes th?’ get to-morrow will be a net gain. here will be no off- sets by deserting.

Sunday’s Call All the Influence of the Executive Is at the Disposal of Mexican Dan to Get Votes, buf It Seems to Have Little Effect. CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA- | MENTO, Jan. 11.—Assemblyman C. B. Jil- son of Siskiyou County has made for him- helf this day a name and a reputation which will cover the State of California from his home county of Siskiyou, on the north, to the far confines of San Diego, and even to the Mexican boundary line on the south. But more particularly in the county of San Diego, where Ulysses S. Grant Jr. resides, will Assemblyman Jil- son be known from this time on. Here in Sacramento, in the Senatorial head- quarters of this same U. S. Grant, Mr. Jilson is already known. Until yesterday Mr. Jilson was highly thought of by all the lieutenants, cor- porals and privates who are handling the Senatorial fight for Mr. Grant. He was supposed to be one of Mr. Grant's most staunch supporters, and was regarded as true blue. He had been detailled to pre- pare one of the seconding speeches to be made in the assembly for Mr. Grant, and was to have had his picture taken for the purpose of placing before the reading pub- lic through the San Francisco papers a counterfeit presentment of the “brilliant Assemblyman from far off Siskiyou who seconded the nomination of U. S. Grant in a brilliant speech.” But alas! “The best laid plans of mice and men gang aft agley.” So said Bobby Burns, and so said the Gran' managers yesterday afternoon. The various nomi- nating and seconding speeches were made in the Assembly yesterday afternoon, and the Grant men waited and watched for STATE PATRONAGE | OSED ON JILSON Hand of Governor Gage Shown in the Fight for Burns. the prepared effort of Assemblymun Jil- | son. But they waited in_vain. The gen- tleman failed to arise and uncork his elo- quence. Then the Grant men got frightened. Anxiously they walited for the call of the roll. At last it was reacheu, and as the clerk called the alphabeticaily arranged list of Assemblymen they held thelir breath until he ot to the letter “J.” Then the name of Jilson was called and he voted for Grant. This eased the minds of Milton Green, | ma; James Brown and United States Marshal | Shine. " After all, perhaps there was no ground for their suspicion that the As- semblyman had fallen by the roadside in | the ardor of his suppor! rant's can- | PHdEe for it e | s ks e lialie o B n | ceptible to | brought to bear upon them by Burns anc didacy. But to-day, in the joint session, Assem- blyman Jilson gave the Grant managers a shock from which they have not vet recovered. When his name was reached on the Assembly rollcall he cast his vote for Daniel M. Burns. Them it was that the Grant people realized their suspicions of the day previous as to the loyaity ot Jillson were well founded. Neverthele: they were surprised beyond measure, a after the joint session had adjourned they sent out an army of detectives to ascer- tain the reasons, monetary or otherwise, that Assemhlyman Jilson had for chang- ing his vote from Grant to Burns. The one man who is responsible for the | change of the vote of Assemblyman Jilson to-day is Hervey Lindley, the ex-Repub- lican boss of Los Angeles County, who has a large log-rolling plant in Siskivou County but who is just at present engaged rolling logs in Sacramento to secure the ind- ley is one of the most shrewd political wire-pullers in the State, and at no time since his arrival in Sacramento have the Grant_people had the vote of Assembly- man Jilson. Lindley called in to assist him in win- ning over the vote of Jilson to Burns Dr. C. L. Gregory, the chairman of the Re- publican committee of Siskiyou County. The doctor arrived in the city Monday, and ever since then he has been working with his friend, Assemblyman Jilson, to secure his vote for Burns 1L0-da ue ac- complished his purpose, and Hervey Lind- ley once more demonsirated that he has not forgotten that political cunning and trickery for which he is noted. It was the State patronage and the fact that, if Jilson continued to vote for Grant neither he nor the Republicans of Siski- ou County would receive any of it, that was a powerful factor in the change of his vote to Burns. To the Grant people Mr. Jilson gave his reason for changing his vote. Ha told them that Dr. Gregory, the chairman of the county committee, had come to him and stated that the Republicans of Siskiyou _County would approve of his ADVERTISEMENTS. 040404040404 04040404040+ - + [} * : BLOOD POISON, All Contracted Ailm=nts of M:n, and Nervous Debility PERMANENTLY CURED By a Successful Medical In- stitution Which Has Been Establlsh=d f,» Mors Then Eightesn Years.

Therefore Mr. Jilson told the Grant eople that he thought it wise to change is vote to Burns, and he had done so. This shows most conclusively that despite his denials the State patron- age is at the disposal of Mexican Dan and it will be used by him to bulldoze and browbeat every legisla- tor who is weak enough to be influ- enced by it to his support. Dr. C. L. Gregory was seen this evening | and admitted that he had made the state- ments accredited to him by Assemblyman Jilson. He took all the responsibility that the remarks he had made to Jilson car- ried with them.

TO BRING ON A BREAK CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA- MENTO, Jan. 11.—Senator Bulla has re. ceived assurances from the eleven legisla tors who are casting their ballots for him that they will continue to vote for him until they notify him that they have decided to change their votes to some other candidate. No such notification was glwn this evening, so for that reason he cels confident that the eleven votes he had to-day he will have to-morrow, with possibly one or two more. The Bulla men do not expect to accomplish anything very much in the way of additional votes until after the break comes. They do not look for any break to-morrow, but they are working to bring one about. They have a hard job on their hands and they realize it. They are still laboring to se- cure all the pledges they can for gullfi as second choice. George A. Knight has changed his mind. He kad decided to drop out of the con- test for three or four ballots. But to-day he lost thirty-three and a third per cent of his strength, for one of his votes went over to Grant. So this decided Mr. Knight to change his plans. He will remain in the fight now, he says, for every ballot to the finish.
