Successor.

SAN FRANorsco, March 9.-The death
of Senator Miller causes general and pro-
found regret here, although the public
was anticipating the reception OF such
information at an early day. There has
been no opportunity to obtain an express
sion concerning who will be appointed by
the chief executor as his successor. Gov.
Stoneman is at San Gabriel aud Mr..
Moreland. his private secretary, states
the Governor has not by any word even
intimated whom he would appoint in
the event Of Senator Miller's death.
WHO WILL BE MILLER's SUCCESSOR,
san FRANcIsco, March S--The death
OF Senator Miller has created much
speculation among politicians OF both
parties as to his probable successor.
The appointment is vested in Governor
stoneman, and the term Of the new ap
pointee will run until the Legislature, at
its next session, early in January next.
elects a regular successor. The Senator
elected by the next Legislature will not
only serve for the regular term OF six
years, bat also from the time OF Ills cleo
tion until next March, when the date of
the regular term begins. Among the
most prominenl candidates from the
northern part OF the State aud in the
immediate vicinity of this city are ex-
Judge W. I. Wallace, d. Nj. Delmas
and George Hearst, while the southern
section of the State, headed by Los An
geles, it is stated, strongly urge the
claims of Stephen NJ. White, of Los
Angeles, Chairman of the Democratic
State Central Committee. Ga the other
hand, it is believed that as a majority Of
the possible candidates are residents Of
this section OF the State, sufficient infiu-
ence will be brought to bear on Governor
Stoneman to induce him to make his
selection from among the candidates OF
this neighborhood 1t is further be-
lieved that George Hearst is favorite
and will receive the appointment to
serve until the Legislature meets, should
he be willing to accept 1t.

Buried In California.

| Special TO the Herald bv The Associated Press
WASHINGTON, March S.--Senator
John F. Miller, of California, died at
his residence on Connecticut avenue in
this city, at | 30 this afternoon, after a
prolonged illness. While his condition
has been regarded as precarious Tor
many weeks past, his death to-day was
sudden and unexpected. At no time
since his arrival in this city has he been
able to attend session OF this Congress,
or has he been regarded as entirely out
of danger. but he showed such wonder
full recuperative powers and rallied SO
often from the attacks which were re-
Qarded at times as necessarily fatal, that
his friends have been encouraged and
even looked for his ultimate recovery.
His death was the result of a complica-
tion Of disorders arising primarily from
the severe wound in the eye received
during the war twenty-three years ago.
The bullet remained in his head about
twelve years before it could be extract
ed and the wound sapped his strength
and rendered him an easy victim to the
disease. Loss OF sleep debilitated
his system and asthmatic symptoms kept
him in constant pain. Brights disease
subsequently began its insiduous work
and then dropsical disorders were devel-
oped but through all his illness the
Senator showed such nerve and will
power that his physicians were enconr-
aged to hope he might possibly recover.
Several operations were performed and
seemed to give much relief When the
storm passed over the city last night the
Senator complained OF feeling much
worse, and complained Of asthma. His
physicians we're quickly summoned, and
their attentions seemed to have built
him up again. This morning DR.. Pope
made careful examination OF his pa
tient aud reported his condition as more
favorable than it had been for several
days past. The Senator remained quiet
up to about IL o'clock, when he became
restless aud asked for the doctor. A
messenger was sent for DR.. Pope, but
before he arrived Mr.. Miller had passed
away. He was conscious to the last, and
took a sad farewell OF his wife, who had
been at his bedside all day. Mr.. and
Mrs. John NJ. Davis had been called in
a few minutes before, and were also
present when he died. The Senator
leaves a wife and one daughter. The
remains will be taken to California for
burial.

About o'clock this afternoon the men
employed at ihe Taylor compress quit
work, but on the solicitation Of the su'
perintendent they again resumed work.
I his action confirms the rumor that the
Knights employed in the large cotton
presses are undecided and reluctant
about striking. The troubles on the
Gould system have not yet reached here
or Houston, but no freight is being sent

A unique plan for the arrangement Of
the Flower Festival display is already
completed. The general idea is
thoroughly dissimilar from that of last
year, and the immense size of the Tab
ernacle will allow the introduction Of
many novelties impossible in a smaller
hall. In addition to our own, there will
be ample room for fine exhibits from all
of our surrounding country. For the
erection of the designs of the artists, ten
times the quantity of flowers used last
year viii be required, and no lack Of ma
