The San Francisco Post thus tells
how All Sin got his wife shipped TO
him, without mourning the usual
travelling expenses Some time ago n
Chinaman swore out a warrant for
the arrest of a Chinawoman. charging
her with grand larceny. The woman
was in Tehama county, and she was
brought down to San Francisco at an
expense of SIS by the Sheriff. When
there the chalge was dismissed, and
the Sheriff OF Teh&ma county has
presented the bin to the Board of SUI
pervisors, who will have to audit it.
The of the business is that the
woman is the wife of the complaining
witness. who used the law to have her
fare paid.

Republsca,. Caucus.

WASHINGTON, May 16.---The Republican
Senator's held a caucus this afternoon for the
purpose of determining what course shall be
adopted, with aview of taking action on Rob-
ertson's nomination and other contested cases,
and of them securing an early adjournment Of
the Senate. A few Senator's spoke in favor of
leaving Robertson's case in the hands Of the
commerce committee some days longer In
hopes some way might yet be opened up to
avoid a controversy concerning It.
Several other members of the caucus, ,Jwhlle
agreeing that the nomination of Judge Robert
son was not wise or desirable on the part Of
the President, took the ground nevertheless,
as an issue had been made party interests de-
manded it should be met by sustaining the
administration. Various other advocates of
prompt action urged the confirmation Of the
nomination on its merits.
After comparatively short debate on all
points above indicated it was decided with four
dissenting votes that the committee, SO far as
Republican members can now control their &C.
ton, shall report all pending nominations
forthwith, meaning at to-morrow's sessions
of the Senate, with the view of finally dispos-
ing of executive business In time for
final adjournment of the Senate by
next Thursday, or Friday at latest.
The necessity of providing for the election OF
a president Of the Senate pro tempore before
the close of the session was also brought to
the attention of the caucus. As Democrats
now constitute majority of the body it was
agreed to notify them that the Republicans
will consider Senator Harris, of Tennessee, an
acceptable choice for the position, and
viii cheerfully acquiesce In his election.

Her Condition Changed for tho Worse.
WASHINGTON, May 16.-Dr. Berinton, Mrs.
Garfeld's physician, reports her condition to-
night as changed for the worse. Her fever
has increased during the day, and has
been accompanied by more delirium. There is
hope that the change for the
worse is only symptom of
partially remlttent character of fever, and 1t
will be followed bya corresponding improve
ment tomorrow. Mrs. Garfeld's condition
tonight, however, is such as to cause great
anxiety.

North and South America, and also to the
rules and regulations under which other ma
tions shall participate in the use of such
canal; or other ways. Burnside gave notice
would call 1t up tomorrow.
Senator Mcmillan said that in the contro-
versy with the Senator from; Missouri, (vest,)
some weeks ago upon the State debt Of Min.
nesota, he had stated that the bonds known as
the railroad bonds had been fraudulently
issued. and had subsequently stated they had
been issued by the Governor Of the State under
mandamus of th6 supreme court. He did
not wish to be understood as duplicating the
Governor or supreme court In the fraud. but
there was deep rooted conviction In the State
that IN other respects the bonds were fraudu.
lent, and that it was the duty Of the State not
to provide for their payment. he defended
the State against the charge of repudiation,
and declared if 1t should appear that the rail.
road bonds were not fraudulent, tho people OF
Minnesota would bs willing to pay every
dollar of them.
Senator Dawes moved to 60 into executive
session.
Senator Cockrell-I thought you wanted to
consider the other resolution3
Senator Dawes-I have no idea but that the
Senator would like to 60 on with 1t. 1t 10 Ii
accordance with disposition he has shown
from the beginning.
Senator Hill, of Georgia-The Senator said
the republic would be subvsrted If the resoln-
tion was not acted upon.
: Senator Dawes-But tie Senator would nev.
er be convinced until he happened to have
majority.
Senator Hill-oh, we don't insist upon hav-
ing it considered.
Senator Dawes-An accident Is an eye-opansr
to the Senator.
Senator Hill turned round and suggested to
Davis of Illinois, that there was nothing to
prevent the Senate from adjourning this week
sine die.
The Senate then went into executive ses-
sion. When the doors reopened the Senate
adjourned.

WASHINGTON, May 16.--In the Senate, after
