All through the stormy days of that session, when every influence possible was being used to gain votes for Burns, Wade, as Assemblyman from Napa, supported M. M. Estee for United States Senator. When the final test came, however, he suddenly changed, and his name is recorded on the list of those who voted for the Mexican. When his name was mentioned as a del- egate from the St. Helena district a mo- tion was made to elect him by acclamation and the storm broke. Judge Ham, although not a member ot the convention, led the fight against Wade. He rehearsed the whole wretched story of the proceedings at ramento, and when a vote was taken Wade was found to_be overwhelmingly defeated. A new candidate was called for, and to_ pre- vent the selected delegate from uf’v'n is proxy a resolution was adopted efféctually prohibiting any such action. The delegates chosen are: W. F.

Correspondence of the Associated Press, YOKOHAMA, April 25.—One of the great conflagrations to which Japanese cities are peculiarly subject occurred at Tukin. a large town on the western const, on the night of the 18th inst. Originating in the suburbs, a high wind carried burning brands to several parts of the city, at once | rendering the fire brigade practically pow- erless. Not until the lames had been rag- ing for six hours were they got under control after the destruction of 1600 houses, including 30 temples and all the principal structures. The loss of life was unusually great, sixteen persons perlshlnf in the flames and nearly a hundred being more or less I 'flm!‘ rty loss is estimated at 5,000 e proj at 5,000, @0 yen, or about $2.500, Of the build: ings destroyed not more than one in twenty was insured.
