Bard is the | | chofce of the joint Republican caucus for | | the office of United States Senator. He | was chosen at. to-night's sessfon amid | the wildest cheering and the greatest em- | thustasm. The meeting abounded in sen- | sations. The Burns forces, as a last des- | perate effort to save the colonel and in | line with their rule or ruin tactics, bolted the caucus after having agreed to abide | by its deliberations. | “Ole Bill" McDonald of Alameda shook off the odium of having associated with the Burns “push” for a day and returned | to decent company. He was given a re- caption that took all the sting out of the Persh things his asdoclates had said of 1m when he temporarily went astray. | The caucus was called to order at 8| o'clock by Chairman Flint. The only Burns people _ present = were Shortridge, | Dibble and Johnson, and they refused to | answer to their names when the roll was called. Fifty-two Republicans were there, however, prepared to declare themselves | egainst the Mexican. Here is the roil of | honor: | Senators—Boyce, Bulla, Burnett, Cur-| rier, Cutter, Davis, Flint, Gillette, 'Jones, | Luchsinger, = Maggard, 'Nutt, Rowell, Smith, Stratton and Taylor, Assemblymen — Anderson, Atherton, Belshaw, Bss, Blood, Baynton, Brown, | Carglll, Chynoweth, Clark, Clough, Con- rey, Cosper, Crowder, Dale, De Lancle, Dunlap, Greenwell, Huber, Knight, Know- land, La Baree, Le Barron, Lardner, Me- Donald of Alameda, McDonald of ‘Tuo- jumne, Melick, Merritt, Milicent, Muen- ter, {zaacum Raub; Robinson, Valentine, orks. No sooner had the roll been called than Johnson attempted to address the chair and was beautifully called down. Chair- man Flint stated that as the SBacramento Assemblyman had refused to answer to his name he would refuse to recognize him, and Johnson was forced to admit that the ruling of the chair was correct. Dibble then announced that he would an- swer to his name if he would be given a chance to do some talking. It only re- quired a few words from him to show what a flimsy subterfuge the Burns peo- ple were advancing as an excuse for be- coming traitors to their party and false to their promises to the caucus. Dibble made the point of order that there was not a quorum present, claiming that sixty-one, a majority of all the members. of both houses of all political partles, were necessary to do business. Chairman nt ruled that the caucus consisted of the eighty-five Republican members and that forty-three was a quorum. He called attention to the fact that in the call which the surns péople had signed it was specified that forty- three votes would be sufficient to rame the caucus chofce for Senator. The Burns ‘baggage then moved itself out of the cau- cus and the ballounsom commenced. When “Ole Bill” McDonald’s name was called and he shouted “Bard” a scene of | weth, Clough, | Governor Gage. the wildest joy followed. Members of the caucus rushed from their seats to con- gratulate him and amid-the tumult he was given three cheers and a tiger. The ballot resulted in 47 for Bard, 4 for Grant and 1 for Barnes. Before it was announced Anderson changed from Barnes to Bard, Chynoweth from Grant to Bard, De Lancie from Grant to Bard, making a total for the victor of 50 votes, Grant 2. Nutt and Crowder stayed with Grant to the fin- ish, but announced that they would stand by the nominee of the caucus. After cheers for Bard, Nutt and Crow- der, U, 8.

CALL HEADQUARTERS, BACRA- MENTO, Feb. 2.—In the Assembly this morning - Assemblyman Johnson declared himself against Assemblyman Dibble and It all came about over the appropriation bills and for a few min- utes things were sultry. Brown of San Mateo a{ened the session by moving to amend the bill he introduced fil(el’dl}' striking out the figures X and sub- stituting the figures $23,000. Assembly bill 15, carr; 'fi the appropria- tion for per diem ane leage, was the measure under discussion and Brown was ready to explain his amendment. He an- nounced that the caucus of last night demonstrated that the Senatorial t Wwas not to last as Jong as had been an- ticipated and that he had figured his amendment from a thirty rather than a sixty-day basis. Valentine said that he was glad to see that the member from San Mateo had come to. reason and that if he would take a couple of hours’ earn- est thought he did not doubt .. he would flnnllg come down to_ the res first offered by the Ways and Means Com- mittee. Brown tartly replied that h‘ dia not think so and made way for Dibble, ‘who Eut up to represent the Governor.

Bpecial Dispatch to The Call. CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA- MENTO, Feb. 2.— In a “bobtailed” bolters’ caucus held to-night by the adherents of Dan Burns, a resolution pledging the Mexican’s crowd never to vote for Thomas R. Bard was defeated, hands down. In other words, Burns’ follow- ers declined to take Burns’ orders and have reserved to themselves the right of choice in case they cannot all agree upon a compromise candidate by Monday next. ‘The Burns’ caucus showed two acquisi- tlons—Morehouse of Santa Clara and Dickinson of San Francisco. Despite re- peated protestations by both of the legis- lators named, they participated in the Mexican's meeting. Big Bill McDonald of Alameda was missing. In fact, Mec- Donald, regretting the mistake he made in golnf over to Burns last night, for- swore his new master and returned again to the anti-Burns forces. He gnm-lplted in their - caucus and when his name was called gave his vote for Thomas R. Bard, with the announce- ment that that was his choice and his man from that time on. McDonald's re- turn to the ranks was greeted with cheers that could have been heard down- stairs,” where the gang he ‘had forsaken was cnucuslnx is_ fellow members crowded round him with assurances of faith in his intentions and promises to -assist him in righting the wrong Impres- glon he made in his off side play to the exican.

Dibble and Johnson dellvered the Mexican's or- ers In that matter and stated that in their opinions the informal meeting held in the afternoon by the antl-Burns forces | was neither more nor less than a caucus, to which they had not been invited.
