A very large and very good-natured audi
ence was that which greeted Miss Annie
Pixley in an liss, the Child OF the Sierras,' al
the Opera House last evening, upon her first
appearance after the curtain was rung up
and we'll pleased audience it was that filed
out of the house at the close OF the per
Torrance And still the entertainment started
off bad-with a wait-(always disagreeable
no matter how justifiable) caused by the train
upon which the company reached the city
being several hours late. But Miss Pixley is
such breezy little actress, so full of fire and
energy, and so clever, both in her head and
heels, that one must indeed be made
of stone to be able to follow her delin.
cation of the difficult and somewhat
unnatural part she assumes for any length
of time without being won to hearty admlra-
ton, for she acts intelligently, sings sweetly
and dances nimbly.
Last evening she was in good voice and
spirits, and commenced as if determined to
win the UNQUALIFIED praise of her large audi
euce, and she did it. Her abandon in the first
act, always governed by the rules of propriety
and refinement, was irresistible, as also was
she in the last act, in which she energies from
the wild waif and appears as an educated and
refined vsung lady, but still cherishing the
warm true loves born of her waifhood trou-
bles. -,
Her support was really effective, and did
much toward the success OF the representa-.
ton. that '.Yuba Bill" of Edward Arnott

remainder of the support was fully up to the
standard of travelling companies.

The Coming Contest for Control

WASHINGTON, April S.-The coming con-
test for control of the next house OF repre-
sentatives Is conceded to bs a close one, aad
both parties are preparing to fight every inch
of de5atabls ground. The Democrats hope
for control of the next house. Ever since
1860 they have gained largely in of years, aud
the fight between the stalwarts and Garfield
factions gives them grounds for expecting
division in the Republicans, especially in New
York and Pennsylvania. Republicans, how
ever, base a hone of continued majority in
the house on the advantages from reappor-
tioniug and redistricting. Maine, which now
has three Republicans aud two opposition,
will elect her reduced delegation Of four by
general ticket. These will undoubtedly be
Republican, loss of two to the Democrats
and a gain of one to the Republicans.
In Ohio the Restricting is held to be great
ly to the advantage of the Republicans. Hub
bells information from Pennsylvania and New
York is favorable to harmony in the party In
these states.
Virginia'5 redistrieting almost assures a
gain Of two opposition members.
In Mississippi it is said the redistricting
has been made in such way as will uninten-
tionally give 4 good chance OF gain OF
three Republican members. II seems there
are number OF congressional asplrants IN the
legislature of that state, and with view Of
cutting out present members and helping
their own chances they have chiselled the
state into the most grotesqus districts. One
contains 10000 more population, than any
other in the state. It is said that the
apportionment act which requires that
each district shall contain as nearly as practi-
cable an equal number of inhabitants Is so
grossly violated in the Mississippi apportlon-
ment that the delegation might be excluded
from the next congress, if It's exclusion would
serve TO give the control of the house to
either party. Some of the Democratic com
mittees do not admit these claims, but are not
confident of making very large claims.

BILLY THE KID.
He Has a Quick Trial and Flies ever the
Road for Six Years.

ALBANY, April 5.-The noted criminal,
Burke, better known as "Billy the Kid was
brought into court to-day and received two
sentences, one for five years for grand larceny
and the other for one year for breaking Jail.
His trial took place on Friday afternoon at
which time the court room was crowded.
Several richly-dressed women were present,
who by their conduct gave Indication of being
relations or particular friends OF the prisoner.
The "Kid'' was brought in sbackled TO Deputy
Sheriff Weaver, whose particular duty has
been for the past week to exercise the closest
surveillance over the willy customer, to see
that he did not again make his escape The
"Kidn looked well and as nonehalant as
usual. As he came in, he looked like boy
beside the big, burly form of the officer, and
he wore such a demure, ministerial look that
many in the audience really took him for a
theological student as he took his place in the
dock. He had in one hand black Derby hat,
and was neatly dressed in dsrk-colored suit,
light weight black overcoat, turn-down
collar, with silk tie, and neat congress
CATERS. There was quite SEN
sation when Dist Atty Herrick called the
case of Petrie alias Aurke, and it was found
that his counsel, Mr.. n. P. Hinson and E. J.
Meegan, failed to appear. There was all sorts
OF talk dOOut AlESHCCs tuS prevailing
opinion being that it was because there was
no collateral in the case. 1t is stated on good
authority that the "Kid's' friends who. as is
well known, have made handsomely By his
operations, had agreed to pool in and pay the
expenses of fighting the case from the court
of sessions to the court of appeals. The ''su-
gar was to have arrived to-day, but not
coming the counsel shook the case, and left
the "Kid" to his fate. The officers of the
Cohoes Manufacturers bank and
others were sworn in rapid sue
cesslou, and before O'Clock the case
had been submitted to the jury without argu-
ment or the part of the counsel. After few
minutes absence the jury returned verdict
of guilty. Burke was then tried on the jail
breaking Indictment, and as summarily con-
vlcted on that. His counsel, Lncien Tuffs,
ez-chamberlain, and Leonard Page were
assigned By the court. The kid" was ap.
parently uncoucerned at the result. The sen.
tence given him to-day was the full iimf,
! allowed by law.

WASHINGTON, April S.-Members of the
cabinet say tonight that the president did not
give them any positive information at the
cabinet meeting to-day as to his intentions
with regard to Chinese immigration, and that
while they have an opinion as to the action
which he will take, it is nothing more than
an opinion and may be mistaken. The gen.
eral impression seems 10 be that the bill will
be disapproved, but this conviction is upon
ledge. Later tonight it is thought by those
whose intimacy with The president entities
their opinions to belief that the bill if vetoed
will be disapproved by the president solely on
account of the length of time for which it
proposes TO suspend immigration, and: hat
legislation providing for the exclusion of
Chinese laborers for ten years would meet
with his approval.

ton of the decline In the stock market says
that the death by his own hand of Cornelius
j. Vanderbilt, brother OF VIM. H., undoubt-
eddy had much to do with the decline, al
though logically it is not seen why 1t should,
as he had nothing to do with the manage
ment of the market properties, nor was he q
large holder of securities. 1t is said, how
ever, that 1t was last evening telegraphed all
over the country that Mr.. Vanderbilt had
been shot and this brought orders here from
every part of the country to sell stocks at the
opening this morning, the assum Dtion being
that it was one of the influential Vanderbllts.
It is known that VIM. 81. Vanderbilt, out of
consideration for his late brother, refused to
see his brokers this morning, or TO do any
business, and that he accordingly gave no
orders to buy any of his stocks, particularly
Lake Shore, which orders he has been in the
habit of giving for the last few days. These
two facts, first the dispatches Of last evening,
and second the withdrawal of orders to buy,
known to the street as "peg" orders, account
for the early break. The brokers and holders
in the market were not slow in seeing the
situation, and they jumped on the whole list
This forced selling by timed holders, and
caused stampede, which was witnessed in
the first hour and q half.
Before II o'clock another influence and a
legitimate bear influence, was developed.
This was the rising of rates for foreign eI'
