were painted in large letters, arrived
here yesterday attached to the passen-
ger train. The head of the train
stopped opposite the express Office,
leaving the special car at the rear of
the train opposite the freight house.
1t was reported that the
HON. WILLIAM SHARON,
Senator, from Nevada, but resident of
California, WAS on the train bound
from Washington to his home in San
Francisco. The special car seemed to
confirm the report; but, as the great
millionaire did not show himself, it was

valet of the Senator, appeared on the
platform. A delegation, consisting of
the Mazeppa corps. with the exception
of the chief blackguard. with their
medical and legal advisors, awaited the
arrival of the train. Upon a signal
from All Hi, who 1t seems is a member
OF the secret political organization, the
corps moved in the direction of the
car, and An Hi announced that "Slena-

All XII, who said Mr.. Shaiou did not
desire so many visitors. The million

called on All Hi to open bottle. Full
bumpers were INDUCED IN, after which
the conversation took political turn.
The situation at Washington aud San
Francisco was discussed, and
