WASHINGTON, Féb. 22.—The Sen- ate to-day considered at some. length the providing. for Government own- of the Panama Railroad. It was ‘debated freely. Consideration of the bill was not completed when the Senate adjourned for want of a quo- um.’ “Washington’s farewell - addres} | was read by Perkins at the beginniug of the session. Morgan took exception to some of the provisions of the Panama bill, among them the ome authorizing the deposit of $1,500,000 to facilitate work on the canal. He saw no necessity, he sajd, for employing a bank for that service. He considered the provision as In the interest of some favorite bank. Gorman explained that the pro- vision was a matter of convenience. He did not doubt that the selected bank would be benefited, but he did not believe there would be ‘any danger of Joss. Both Gorman and Balley fa- vored the acquisition of the Panama Rallroad. Patterson expressed his opinion on the subject of Government ownership, saying that he did not regard.such ownership as an unmixed evil.. He favered the acquisition of the Panama Rallroad, as it would enable the Gov- ernment to demonstrate the effect of national control in such business. Con- tinuing, Patterson said that to call' President Roosevelt the student of Mr. Bryan was an injustice; for he believed | both had ‘taken their lessons from the same source, ———————————— HOUSE SENDS ARMY BILL BACK TO CONFERENCE | Refuses to Agree to the Amendments Inserted in Measure by the Senate. WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.—After a brief but spirited debate the House to- day sent back to conference the army appropriation bill. All Senate amend- ments were again disagreed to ‘with the’ single exception of one appropriat- ing $95,000 for continuing the cable from Valdez to Seward, Alaska. There was renewed discussion over the pro- vision regarding retired officers with the militia, the name of General Nel- son A. Miles once more figuring con- spicuously in the debate. Determined opposition developed to a motion by Ames of Massachusetts to agree to the Senate amenrdment on that subject which is favorable for the re- tention of full retired pay by General Miles and other officers of high rank serving with militia organizations. A resolution was adopted declaring it to be inexpedient at this time to in- vestigate the legality of the election of a delegate from Hawail to the Fifty- ninth Congress __ | | before,” he said. REFUSES 70 RECONSIDER [TS _ACTION ON SCHOOL APPD RTIONMENT BILL, ASSEMBLY, AFTER LONG DEBATE, Special Dispatch to The Call. \ PASSES MEASU SACRAMENTO, Feb. 22.—The As- sembly to-day by a vote of 53 to 22 refused to reconsider the Slavin school apportionment bill. There was an- other debate, byt it was far more mild than the stormy discussion of yester- day. There were some caustic re- marks, but the Speaker got through Ywithout breaking another gavel. Some words in the way of apology for yes- terday were said. Coghlan remarked during his address that probably the rules of parliamentary ethics, “if not of parliamentary decency,” had been transgressed. Drew said his remarks, ! that had been taken as an insult to San Francisco, had - been miscon- strued. He was only inviting the children of the metropolis to come out and get their education: under the murmuring pines and the spreading | vines of the beautiful countryside. Be- fore Drew came to his apology, how- | ever, Coghlan had again reverted to the Fresno member’s statements of | yesterday. TAKES SHOT AT FRESNO. “‘Such insinnations have never been | made against any locality in this body “Looking back upon | the fifty years of splendid progress ! that lie behind San Francisco, I am willing to make comparisons for the metropolis with the city of Fresno, where | dying and the pop of the revolver has sounded in all directions. ‘I am ready | to say that I really think \that city should have a special appropriation i all to herself to educate her children. | for surely they need special attention to train their minds from the sights they have witnessed.” Leaving his picture of the gory streets of wicked Fresno and her chil- dren swimming toschool throughrivers of blood, Coghlan talked on the merits of the case and said the Assembly should be unselfish and do only jus- tice. “We have been told,” said Tread- well, “that there was no use of us de- bating this question, for no matter what points were made, the bill would be carried. From my knowledge of the personnel of this house I believe this to be a slander. The proponents of this bill will have to show before they can claim to be acting aith an unselfish interest that $250 is a proper basis of apportinment and will have to give a good reason for changing from $300, which change gave them the Los Angeles vote. If any man here is going home to boast to his constituents that he has brought them some of San | Francisco's school money, I should hold -him beneath a highway robber who took your money from you in the dark.” FLING AT GOVERNOR. Walsh took a fling at the Governor be saying that maybe the new appor- tionment was a matter of State poli- tics and that the gentleman who was doing politics through the bill was not the State Superintendent of Public In- struction. Sufficient votes had been programmed 'to carry the matter through the House, he said. Anthony was given three minutes in which to talk, and he said among other things that when this money was token from San Francisco she would never get it back. Manwell said, the bill was a just measure and that San Francisco owed to the interior the-help that was ex- pected of her. Dorsey also spoke for the that the anterior counties should get a larger amount of money with which to carry on their schools. - Thus, with a few more personalities, but with nothing like the rancor or the disorder of the first day of debate, the famous school apportionment bill, that has produced the most exciting scene of the session of the Assembly thus far, was passed on:to the Senate. R MAY COMPLETE MANSION. 4 | House for University President to Be Considered. | SACRAMENTO, Feb. 22.—A bill ap- | propriating $15,000 for the comple- tion of the president’s residence at the | State University grounds was intro- | duced in the Assembly this morning. | If President Wheeler of the university | believes he cannot occupy the mansion and entertain on ‘the scale required | without financial loss, it’ is expected | the Regents will either ‘devote the money now used for rent of the presi- cdent’s house inf assisting him or direct that the building be used for .class- | rcoms. | The Ways and Means Committee has |given a favorable report on the bill | appropriating $10,000 for an electric light and power plant at the Lick Ob- | servatory. | BERKELEY, Feb. 22.—Concerning | the proposed $15,000 appropriation for | the president’s residence, President | Wheeler said: | Fhis appropriation is intended to complete | the building in course-of construction on ‘the university grounds. which was designed for the | president’s residence did not initiate the | proposal. It comes | visit to Berkeley of a result of the recent | he legisiative commit- | tee. The residence, upon which $30,600 has | been experded, is far from ready for occu- | pancy. “There 'is a question whether it will be used for the president. 1 objected to going into such a large building because of the ex- pense of maintaining it. But that is a mat- ter for the regents to settle ultimately. it K b MAY OVERRULE GOVERNOR. Legislature to Reconsider Bill Reduc- ing Hours of Firemen. SACRAMENTO, Feb. 22,—Senator ‘Wolfe will make a fight to pass over the Governor’s veto Senate bill No. 146, the purpose of which is to reduce the hours of employment of members | of the San Francisco Fire Department to twelve a day. Senator Wolfe asked this morning that the question of the Governor's veto of the measure be made the gpecial order for next Mon- day morning. His motion prevailed and on that day the first effort of the session to overrule the Governor will be made. Senator Shortridge’s bill to protect the fish and shell fish of California was finally passed and sent to the As- sembly. This bill goes into the ques- tion of the preservation of fish in all its phases. —_—— ‘ PROTEST FROM REDLANDS. Fear Bill May Deprive People of Uni- versity Reports. SACRAMENTO, Feb. 22.—A peti- tion from citizens of Redlands against the passage of the Gates' bill, prohib- iting professors of the State Univer- sity from accepting fees for private work, was filed in the Assembly this morning. It states that under the pro- visions of the bill these professors would be prevented from publishing reports on fertilizers, which would be very injuriqus to the citrus fruit in- dustry. Gates moved that the petition be not printed in the journal, which motion was defeated. The petition wasg presented by Prescott. in the past the streets have; been strewn . with the dead and the measure, saving it' was but right | RE TO THE SENATE ; + i THREE BOODLERS PREPARE TO FACE TRIAL FOR CRIME Recognize That No| Subterfuge Can Save Them. Special Dispatch to The Call. SACRAMENTO, ' Feb. 22.—Boodlers French, Wright and Bunkers are pre- | ) paring for trial, having abandoned . hope that their assault on the fadict- | ment, which at first promised so muc1, | will avail aught.. Emmons, who lies | at the point of death as the -esult of | | an operation for appendicitis, aaturally | has not been told that ‘his associates have abandoned hope ‘of escaping trial, and he will not be for some weeks to | come, should be survive, | After. Attorney Morehouse had com- pleted his argument on behalf of the accused, they were highly exhilarated at the prospect of going scot free, but they did not count on the fact that a reply to their argument that they had cor:mitted. no crime was to be made by the prosecution. 'When: this reply did: come their counsel saw that their defense had crumbled and that ther: WS nothing left to do but to get ready to convince a jury that the accused are innceent. In answer to interrogations by | Judge Hart, District Attorney Sey- mour made the point that it mattered not whether the Legislature had the power to investigate corporations or not; that the acceptance of a bribe on the part of any member of the Legis- lature from any corporation might in- fluence the vote of such member on this very question, as a vote might be called on a resolution to ' determine whether or not the Legislature should delegate to itself the power to investi- gate corporations. The District At- torney also cited authorities establish- ing the fact that the Legislature has in relation to corporations what is known as siting” powers, which in- clude the right of investigation of any organization it has directly or indi- rectly created. The point was also raised by the Dis- trict Attorney that there were various bills before the Legislature bearing di- rectly on building and loan associa- tions and that the acceptance of a bribe on the part of a member for specific action on any phase. of the building and loan association ques- tion would tend to influence such mem- ber in his consideration of all phases of the question to come before either | or both houses. The trend of Judge Hart's questions and the direct manner in which they were answered and supported by au- thority by the District Attorney dis- pelled all of the high hopes that had beeen raised by Morehouse’s argument, and counsel for the defense practically admitted that they were beaten. That they expect that the court will over- rule their' demurrer and order the ac- | cused to plead next Saturday is made plain by the statement of one of the counsel for -the defense, who said to- | day: Judge Hart will probably overrule our de- murrer. Though he has given no® intimation other than what may be gathered from .his | questions, we are prepared for an gdverse de- clston. But.we will g0 to the Supreme Court, however, - and, although this action -on our | part will not_ delay the trial. we have hopes | of ultimats victory on the points raised in the | demurrer alone. e To-morrow morning Attorney George | D. Collins will argue his motion to| quash the indictment against French. | This will give the court time in which | to investigate the authorities submit- | ted in all of the cases before Saturday, | wnen he will hand down his' decision. DAL | * EXPULSION POSTPONED. | Emmons’ Illnesa'_C:mses a Delay in| e Proceedings. SACRAMENTO, Feb. 22.—At allate bour to-night it was announced.that consideration of the report of the committee that has found Emmons, Bunkers, French and Wright guilty of bribery and recommends their expul- sion wil' not be taken up to-morrow. It was agreed that a consideration of | the report at a time when Emmons is critieally ill would look like taking snap judgment in his case and as the cases could not be well segregat- ed it was decided by several members to recommend that all be postponed. | It is the prevailing opinion that there will be no objection and that the hearing will go over for a week. | In the meanwhile the accused Sena- tors will draw their pay and be free to enjoy all of the rights of the floor. ———— . EMMONS IMPROVING. Physicians Now Belleve He Has Chance of Recovery.

Navy Recommends Pe-ru-na. James M. Morgan, 1735 20th St., Wash- ington, D. C., Ex-Lieutenant U. S. Navy, Ex-Lieutenant Conf. Navy, and Ex-Con- sul General to Australia, writes: “The use of your Peruna as a remedy or cure for catarrh by many of my fr ends who have been benefited by the sams, as well as my own experience as to its effi- cacy and good tonic properties, causes me to recommend it to all persons.”’ The constant exposure to the elements of an outdoor life is not so apt to excite coughs and colds as sedentary habits. Those who are brought to face the weather every day in active life are much less liable to catarrhal diseases than those who are housed up in illy ventilated-rooms. the Use of Pe-ru-na.

The wound has not yet entirely. healed. The’trjal was delayed for more than a half hour before Kratz again entered the courtroom. He was looking pale and-trembled noticeably as he walked to hisseat. i “Charlés T. Gutke,'a former member of. the St. Louis House of Delegates, testified: that he went with Kratz to the residence of Philip Stock and that the latter asked him to handle the Suburban bill in the House, but that he' (Gutke) said he could not as there was a:combine of nineteen in the House: and that he could not act for all-of them, without consulting them. On the request of Attorney Fauntle- roy, counsel for the defense, an attach- ment was issued to-day for Thomas K. Niedringhaus, to attend as a wit- ness. “The State introduced in evidence the small black box from the vaults of the ‘Mississippi Valley Trust Company of St, ‘Louis, containing the sixty-one thoysand dollar bills comprising the bribery fund referred to in the testi- mony brought out in the trial money was counted by the jurors. ‘William Desmond, chief of detectives of St. Louis, was the last witness for the State.
