Little progress was made, the principal result being to make it clear-that the hope of speedy passage of the bill Is vain. Numerois amendments were offered, mainly dealing with the less essential features of the bill. Many of them were merely changes in verblage. Anderson of Solano, Sheridan and Melick each sent up a long list of amendments and most of them were adopted. An amendment by Melick meking the law mandatory in all the cities of more than 10,00 population instead of 7500 was lost: Pasadena and Vallejo would have been the only citles affected by the amendment. As it grew later and amendments werc crowding in Johnson asked that the bill be allowed to go over. He said: “There are features of this bill which I believe make it unconstitutional. In my opinion the test established by it is not worth the paper it is written on. We want to get a primary law, but let us try to get one that will stand the test of the courts.” The bill was allowed to go over as un- finished business. - Sutro’s constitutional amendment giving the electors the right to cast a direct vote at primaries for candidates for office in- stead of voting for delegates to conven- tions to choose those candidates was de- feated by a vote of 31 to 4L Southern Californians Clash. With but three days more in which' to draw their per diem the lawmakers to- day fo! down to business and gave a good fllustration of what can be accomplished in the matter of twentieth century legis- lation, In the Senate an obstruction to the dis- patch of business was encountered in the form of Caldwell’s bill to appropriate $15,- 000 for a girls’' reformatory at San Jacinto, Riverside County. The bill originally called for an appropriation of $50,000, but was amended in committee to $15.000: Currier said the establishing of an in- stitution as proposed by the bill was a necessity and would permit of the separa- tion of the sexes now at Whittler. Simpson said the bill originated in the peculiar views of Mrs. Mitchell, a mem- ber of the board of trustees of the Whit- tier School, who is o%posed to corporal punishment for girls. r. Lindley wanted to get her off the board and this wouid account for any favor he might give this bill for a separate Institution. Caldwell highly praised Mrs. Mitchell for her efforts in behalf of the girls at | Whittier, and said she favored the pro- g(\sed separation of the girls from the oys in two different institutions. He argued that there was need for thé change. s The bill finally passed by a vote of 29 0 5. o Insurance Bill Passes. The “valued policy” bill passed the Sen- ate after more than an hour's debate, 1n which nearly every member of the Senate took a hand. This is the bill which pro- vides that property insured shall be paid for at its total insurcd ¥aluation and that the insured shall pay theé costs of the pre- liminary examination necessary to de- termine the amount of insurance to be carried. Incidentally the bill requires that artial losses shall be paid.for on the asis of the amount represented by the total insurance. < ‘Wolfe designated this as the most bra- zen piece of effrontery ever presented to the Legislature. He considered it a pe- cullar circumstance, to say the least, that a_bill previously introduced and bearing upon the same subject could not be found upon the Senate files nor in the sergeant- at-arms’ room, where bills are to be had. Laird offered an amendment which was intended to throw the cost of examination to determine values for a ‘“fixed policy"” upon the insurance company writing the risk, but this was voted down and the bill finally passed. % The general appropriation bill made its appearance in the Senate to-day and was assigned the head of the fille in the Finance Committee. The proposed transfer of Agricultural Park on the part of the State -Agricul~ tural Association to the State- must have no strings on it, Leavitt's amendment to the committee substitute for Devlin's biil being in_sych form as to make the deed to the State absolute.” In jts amended form there will be no oppefition to the passage of the bill, it is understood. Dairy School for Kings County. Myers succeeded in gefting his bill ap- propriating $20,000 for a dairy school in Kings County, to be conducted under the direction of the University of California, passed this afternoon. The bill went through by a vote of 53 to 18. ‘When the bill was taken up, Brown of San Mateo moved that a committee of one be appointed to amend by directing that the school be established in Alameda or San Mateo County, instead of Kings. The fight was made along that line, the As- semblymen who more directly represent the wishes of the regents and the faculty of the University of California support- ing_the amendment, since the university authorities have desired that if the schodl be established it be located on property already owned by the university in Ala- meda or San Mateo county. : Myers spoke at length in support of his bill, contending for the establishment of a school where practical dairy work should be taught, rather than making the training of experts its ideal. Ralston, Brown of San Mateo and Anderson of So- lano spoke in behalf of the wishes of the uvniversity authorities, but the majority was against them, and Brown's amend- ment was lost. After the roll call by which the bill was passed, Anderson changed his vote from aye to no and gave notice of a motion to reconsider. Normal School Appropriations. Two normal school appropriation bills were passed by the Assembly this after- noon, practicaily without opposition. Sen- ate bill 260, appropriating $50.000 for the completion and equipment of the building now being constructed for the San.Diegs State Normal, was the first one passed. On the Assembly third reading file Assem- biy bill 207, appropriating $25.000 for build- irgs at the Chico State Normal School, was passed by a vote of 60 to 0.

The supporters of the bill are copflident no attempt to amend in the Senate will prove successful, and they hope for the best when it gets oyer io the Assembly. The bill revising the Civil Code (Assem- bly bill No. 683) was passed by the Senate to-day. This leaves only the Penal Code bill to be considered, and that s now under consideration by the Senate. Henry’s Assembly bill No. 425, providing that eight hours on duty shall be the limit of a day’s service in all Police Depart- ments, except in cases of emergency, was also_passed.

R PLEADS FOR THE BIG TREES. Father Kenna Makes an Appeal to Senate Members. CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA- MENTO, March 4—To-night, after ad- journment, the Senators lingered in the Senate chamber long enough to hear the Rev. Father Kenna address them on be- half of the bill to appropriate $250,000 to purchase the Big Basin grove of big trees. Father Kenna described the grove as being a natural reservoir of water. The trees were going fast, he said, and when they were gone the springs, which wera fed from the water they held in storage. would run dry and the country would wither for want of water. No one seemed to realize, he said, the amount of water. the trees held, and should they be de- stroyed the country would in a year lose more by drought than would pay for the grove twice over. He described the rav- ages of the lumbermen, and commented only in, this State, California did not own a single specimen. On behalf of the Sempervirens Club, and on behalf of the grove of giants, he asked the Senators to vote for the bill —elelE TN DRINKS ARE ON KINCAID. Assemblyman Sent on a Vain.

Ryan was the aggressor in this round, but West blocked and landed at will, and but for the gong might have finished his man. In the seventh Ryan's lip was split and West's nose was broken, his rlfiht eye closed, his forehead laid open in two places and his cheek split. Blood poured from his wounds as time after time Ryan landed on the injured places. He played continuously for the broken nose and for 'the next half-dozen rounds made a ve: able chopping block of West. The pu ishment West took was wonderful, blood pouring from nearly a dozen of his wounds. West's corner looked. like a slaughter house, and the fighters’ attaches actually had to wipe the blood from the floor with a mop. So bloody indeed was the fight that several persons near the "“f ‘were nauseated and had to leave th» hall. Still during round aftersround West came up only for pounding on the nose, eye and cheek. In the seventventh round when it was seen that West was fighting a hageleu fight, Terry McGovern threw up the sponge for West and the referee gave the decision to Ryan.
