THE CAUSE OF SENATOR MOTIONS ILLNESS.
1t seems that on the night before Dir. Nor
tons departure from California Benjamin
Holiday. the railroad king OF the Golden
State, rendered the remaining members OF
the Oregon investigating committee re-
ception and banquet, and on this occasion
the Senator overloaded his stomach with
dclicacies forced upon him bya too kind host.
The feast brought on the attack. and just
as he was about to leave Sacramento he was
laid low. He determined to proceed, how
ever, not wishing to undergo protracted
siege OF sickness in climate with which he
had not become famiiiariZcd. Colonel W.
r. Holloway, his brother-in-law, the post
master OF indianapolis, was tclcgraphcd for
and went to meet him. He met the Senator
at Cheyenne and accompanied him home
from there, being joined at Peoria, Illinois,
by Doctor W. {. Thompson, the family
physician. 1t was concluded that Richmond,
his old home. was Il better place to take the
sick man than indianapolis, his house hay
ing been given up here several weeks ago.

- Later dispatches from India in regard to
the famine are somewhat less unfavorable.
There has been general improvement in
crop prospects in a considerable portion Of
the northwest. but the situation continues
to be critical. Prices Of grain remain en-
ceedingly high in the famine districts, and
the difficulty in some districts is aggravated
by the inability OF the railways to transport
breadstutfs sufficient for the great demand.
The proportion OF those receiving charitable
relief to those actually laboring upon the
public works continues to be enormous.
