Melick's Assembly concurrent resolu- requesting favorable action on the sure now before Congress appropriat- i 000 for the improvement of Yosem- | ite Park, wa adopted Assembly bill 23, granting the Governor | extraordinary power In removing em- ployes of State hospitals for the insane, a companion bill to that refused passage | in the Senate yesterday, was responsible | for a small storm. As had been the case | 1 the Senate, a number of amendments ere offered to make it a little more pal- | able to the legisiators. Amendment af- ndment was offered by both the | is and foes of the bill, and_when it | returned to the printer Governor | Gage himself would not have recognized it. The measure as amended is too harm- less to live, and it is the general expres- n of the members that even in its pres- t form it cannot pass the House. The | Senate expressed itself on the measure g IR k Brown of Colma spoke strongly against allowing the Governor the Powers he asks. He pointed out that in Federal matters the President never interferes in department affairs, and to grant such | power to Governor Gage would be an in- novation. Furthermore, he sald, the pow- | ers asked are quite unnecessary. After recess the Assembly considered | Assembly bill 2, granting the Governor power to suspend the sale of any part of | the public lands of the State. The bill met with bitter opposition, as did that giving him extraordinary powers in re- moving persons from office. It was amended against the protests of the Gov- | ernor's supporters so that the powers a by the executive in his original bill | are denfed. The question of adjournment sine dle was made a speclal order for § p._m. to-morrow. The resolution repealin law was adopted. Melic to-morrow he will the wide-tire gave notice | move to recon- sider. Brown’s proposed amendment to constitution to ermit an expression of | choice for United States Senatoj at gen- eral elections was passed. the | AGAINST LAND GRABBING | SACRAMENTO, Feb. 8.—The following | petition was received by the Senate from | the Miners’ Association protesting against | 'd grabbing by ofl_speculators, being presented by Senator Smith of Kern: To the honorable members of the Senate and | ssembly.

MENTO, Feb. 8.—The last of the appro- priation bills pa d the Assembly to-day and were approved by the Governor. The total cxpense of the extra session is $33,- as follows: Contingent expenses, per diem and mileage of Assembly- men, $12,000; per diem and mileage of Senators, $5958; per diem and mileage of officers and clerks of the Senate. $2737; State Printing Office expenses, $4500. The appropriation 1s based on a session last- ing until next Monday night. It is almost certain, however, that there will be an adjournment by Saturday noon. The Sen- ate has adopted a resolution to ul]oull;g Saturday. The Assembly committee ways and means recommended the reso- lution to-day, but Dibble suggested. no immediate action be taken on it for the reason that there was a possibility all bills might not be in shape for the Gov- ernor by that time. The resolution will sist the Governor in his scheme of star- vation and dclay STRUCK HER MOTHER INST='D OF THE DOG Troubles of Mrs. and Miss Coop in Defending Their Coop. Epecial Dispatch to The Call. BELVEDERE, Feb. 8—To have six chickens devoured by a cannibal dog is bad enough, but to get knocked out with a broom while defending your property from the onslaughts of the enemy is worse. This was what befell Mrs. Coop of this place and her ally in the attack was the deliverer of the blow which put her out of commission. For some nights past chickens have been missing from the coop and M Coop, who is the wife of John Coop, ident of the Belvedere Land and Company, has laid awake nights recently 1o capture the depredator. Miss Coop also has an interest in the chicken combine and she, too, watched and waited. Last night the vigllance of the sentries was rewarded by the sight of a large St. Ber- nard besieging the hen laager. The relief column sallled out and lald for the en- emy in the shade of a kopje. When the dog appeared with a chicken gracefully falling in festoons from his nether lip Mrs. Coop screamad, but Miss Coop, being armed with woman's weapon—a broom— almed at the canine chicken thief a vicious “swipe.” In the excitement of the moment she must have mistaken her mamma for the St. Bernard. A feeble scream, followed by a heavy thud, ap- rised her of the execution she had done. Mrs. Coop lay motionless for a few mo- ments, but a copious application of cold water soon brought the flush of life again to her cheeks. As she was led into the house she was heard to remark on the vividness and beauty of the stars, but as it was a cloudy night this was put down as being an optical delusion. The Coops now buy thelr eggs at the grocery store and the henhouse will be converted into a monument for the dog—when they catch him. — HEPBUAN OPPOSES CANAL TREATY Says It Concedes Too Much to England. WASHINGTON, Feb. 8. —Representative Hepburn, chairman of the House Inter- state and Foreign Commerce Committee, which has charge of the Nicaragua Canal appropriation, opposes the canal treaty with Great Britain now pending in the “I think,” he sald, “that the negotia- tions of this treaty are very unfortunate and that it ought not to be ratified by the Senate. I don’t know that the pendency of the treaty will interfere with action by Congress on the Nicaragua Canal bill, but tainly impair the value of the canal when constructed. “This treaty reaffirms the principles of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty, coneeding all the claims and contentions of Great Bri- tain, though Great Britain has, by her own action, given us the right at any time to abrogate the Clayton-Bulwer treaty. It surrenders everything to Great Britain, abandoning our contention of )'far%“thnt we might abrogate the treaty at will. ““Moreover, it recognizes the right of any foreign power to interfere and dic- tate with reference to our ne‘oulu%nl with the ¥resen\ Governments of this continent. It abandons the Monroe doc- ne.” LONDON, Feb. 8—In the House of Commons to-day, replying to a question as to whether Great ~Britaln has relin- %ulshed all her rights under the Clayton- ulwer treaty in respect to the Nicaragua Canal, and if so what compensating ad- vantages, if any, had been secured In ex- change, the Pnrlllmen*l Secret of the Forelgn Office, Wil t.

He was so convinced of the justice of the Boer cause that he felt he could not ade- quately represent the neutrality required by the position of our Government toward the war. He felt that if he retained his duties without Infringing on his idealistic instincts. - For a while there was a sharp conflict in his mind, which resulted n his abrupt departure for America.
