Crimes un- speakable are committed daily within those walls and all the result of the congregate system, which this Legis- {lature has the power to remedy.” This was the answer to-night of Prison Director Felton: before the Finance Committee of the Senate and | the Ways and Means Committee of the House to a request that he impress lupon the minds of his audience the absolute necessity of the passage of the bills that have been introduced to appropriate funds for the construction of 800 additional cells 4t each of the State prisons and a wall around Fol- Governor Pardee, who was celled upon to express his views, said | that he believed something should be done immediately and that the present Legislature should make an appro- priation sufficient to begin the work at | ence. Prison Director Felton explained ' that at San Quentin there are 1500 prisoners, with only 625 cells to hold them, while Folsom has 1000 prison- ! ers, with only 872 cells; in other words that there are something under 1000 cells to hold 2500 prisoners. The bills providing for the improve- | ments needed, he said, contemplated an appropriation of $218,000 for Fol- som and $360,000 for San Quentin, but | under recent estimates the board was i the United States to assist them in col- confident that these sums could be re- duced at least $100,000 by the pur- chase of mbdern stone-cutting ma- | chinery.

He does not desire to be held accountable for such complications as may cause fighting to prevent acqui- sition of territory by foreign nations on the western hemisphere or the abandonment of the principles of the Monroe doctrine. In transmitting to the Senate the treaty negotiated between Minister Dawson and Premier Sanchez for guaranteeing the integrity of Santo Domingo and supervising that repub- lic’s finances, the President, in a spe= cial message, fully set forth his rea- sons for having engaged in this un- usual undertaking. He called the at- tention of the Senate to the conditions prevailing in the South and Central American republics. These Govern- ments, he said, had contracted indebt- edness abroad far beyond their means to repay. In view of the Monroe doc- trine, European nations had requested lecting the sums due, or to permit them to coempel payment in their own way. CRISIS IS APPROACHING.

The bill will come up for final pas- sage before the end of the week. The school fund apportionment bill introduced by Assemblyman Slaven was called up for second reading in the Assembly this afternoon by its author. Thompson of Los Angeles offered an amendment making the rate of ap- portionment of funds $250 per teacher instead of $300. McGowan of San Fran- cisco introduced another prgviding that the measure, if passed, shall go into effect September 1, ifistead of July 1. Both were accepted by Slaven, the final passage of the bill was made a special order for next Wednesday and the incident was closed for to-day.

LEW WALLACE RESPONDS TO DEATH’S CALL CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind., Feb. 15.— General Lew Wallace, author of “Ben Hur,” one-time Minister to Turkey and a veteran of the Mexican and Civil wars, died at his home in this city to- day: He was 78 years of age. The health of General Wallace had been waning for several years, and for months, despite the efforts of the fam- ily to keep the public in ignorance of hie true condition, it has been gener- ally known that his vigorous constitu- tion cduld not much longer withstand the ravages of a wasting disease. For more than a year he had been unable to properly assimilate food. At no time has he ever confessed his belief that the end was near, and his rugged con- | latter that of major general. In 1861 he was adjutant general of the State of Indiana, but he resigned this office to accept a commission as colonel of the Eleventh Indiana Infantry. The ladies of Indianapolis upon the departure of the regiment presented it with a hand- some stand of colors. On recelving it Cgl?inel ‘Wallace raised his hand and cried: “Now, remember Buena Vista, boys, fend this flag with the last dro! blood.” Then the entire regiment kneeled, with the same unanimity as when on drill, and each man raised his right hand while Colonel Wallace in a solemn voice sald: “We pledge ourselves before God and these, our fellow countrymen, to defend this flag with our lives, and die for it if necessary, God being our helper. Amen.” A solemn “amen” came from the reg- iment and a suppressed sob from a ma- Jority of the bystanders. ‘Wallace’s services in the fleld were conspicuous and valuable. He led a di- vision at the capture of Fort Donelson, of our to enter the fort. He also contributed largely to the victory at Shiloh by his gallant fighting on the second day. Though a great favorite * among his men, he was a rigid disciplinarian. In illustration, of his strictness the follow- ing anecdote is told: ‘While in camp at Pittsburg Landing he met one day four of his men carry- ing to their tent half an ox which they had appropriated. As a punishment he and on our knees let us swear to de-! being the first Federal officer of rank | stitution and remarkable vitality have been responsible for prolonging his life | several months, The deathbed scene was one of calm- ness. Besides his physician only hi ordeted each of the men to carry by turns the carcass on his shoulder. around a tree for an hour at a time in the broiling sun. The next day he com- pelled them to fan it to keep off the wife, his son and Henry Watkin of In- dianapolis were present. Two children were in the house but were not admit- ted in the room. When told by his phy- sician that he was dying General Wal- lace was perfectly calm, and his last words were expressions of cheer to his | grief-stricken family. Bidding them' farewell he said, “I am ready to meet my Maker.” He then lapsed into un- consciousness, from which he did not recover. No definite arrangements have been made for the funeral. Lewis Wallace was born in Brook- ville, Ind.. on April 10, 1827. His father, David Wallace, was elected Governor of Indiana ten years later. His mother was a daughter of Jude Test, a man who played an important part in the early judicial history of Indiana. Lewis did not take kindly to the re- straints of school. His father was wont to say that he had paid the lad’s tuition for fourteen years and Lewis had hard- 1y gone to school once. An attempt to flies, and on the third day they.were made to bury it, with suitable honors. After the war General Wallace served on the commission before which the assassins of Lincoln were tried, and lager upon the returning board in Flor- ida in 1876; as Governor of New Mex- ico, 1878-1881, and as United States In-‘ ister to Turkey, 1881-1885. After his re- turn from Turkey he made his home in' Crawfordsville, Tnd., where he erngaged | in literary work. P { General Wallace was the author of | several books, among them “A Fair God,” a tale of Aztec Mexico, upon which he worked at irregular intervals for twenty years: “Ben Hur: A Tale of the Christ” and “The Prince of India.” “Ben Hur” undoubtedly is the most popular religious romance in the Eng- lish language.

A delegation from Carville came be- fore the Police Commission last even- ing to protest against the issuance of licenses for saloons on the Ocean boulevard. Charles Dahl was recently granted a liquor license in Carville and the residents have been holding indignation meetings because of the commission’s action. WANT COLLEGE FARM. Senate Passes Bill Providing $150,000 for Agricultural Studies. SACRAMENTO, Feb. 15.—Diggs’ bill providing for the appropriation of $150,- 000 for the purchase of a farm for the use of the college of agriculture of the University of California passed the Senate this morning. Carter spoke against the measure, saying he be- lieved several smaller farms should be purchased in different parts of the State, that comprehensive investiga- tion of the different solls and varied crops of different sections might be made. Senator’ Ward differed from Carter, however, and said he favored the purchase of the farm and was posi- tive there is no crop grown in the State that couldn’'t be experimented with and benefited at a farm located somewhere in the center of the State. Senator Anderson said that. though he favored the bill he would not vote' for it unless favorahle action was as- sured’ upon an Assembly bill appropri- ating $50,000 for the purchase of an ex- perimental station in the southern por- tion of the State.

The call for the vote on his bill was then made and it was unanimously supported.

Sargent had not been present, but Secretary Morchus of the Ocean Boulevard Im- provement Club announced that there were over sixty people at the meeting. About twenty of them came before the commission as a committee. In the course of his remarks Mor- chus said that beautiful Carville would soon become ‘“‘another Barbary Coast™ if saloon licenses were freely allowed, the beach being a favorite resort for debauches. “Through an oversight, owing to a change in the office of secretary,” ex- plained President Poheim, “we did not RAIN FALLS IN SOUTH IN GENEROUS QUANTITIES | Heavy Downpour Is Reported From Los Angeles and City of San Diego.

They said disgraeeful scenes had been enacted within view of their homes and there was serious misgiving on their part for their chil- dren, from whom the disgraceful sights could not be screened. But the delegation parted with the commission with some degree of satis- faction, for the assurance was given that the saloons would mot be per- mitted to annoy the home-builders of Carville or cause depreciation of prop- erty values. Applications for renewal of licenses were received from 147 salooms, 2 drivers, 27 restaurant-keepers and 19 peddlers. — .
