mia delegation in the House this session
has worked together in most perfect har-
mony, aud has accomplished its full share
Of business. There have been none of the
| chickering's and jealousy that characterized
| the delegation in the last Congress. Some
were more successful, or rather fortunate.
| than others, in getting through local meas
| ures. but in all cases they have aided each
! other with utmostcOrdiality and kindly feel
ing. Markham, as one of the confefees or
the river and harbor bill, was very sue
cessful in promoting California interests,
and especially in securing the restoration
of the debris clause Of the bill. In this he
was ably assisted by AcKenna, who drafted
| the clauses originally, and l4bored unceas-
ingly for their adoption. Markham got
| through both houses his bill dividing the
State Of California into two judicial dis
| tricts. He kept bis eyes on the bill until
ii was sent to the White House. where it
was signed by the President to-day.

Hearst Indignant.
WASHINGTON. August 5th.-When ex-
Senator Hearst learned late last night that
the river and harbor bill contained clause
directing the Secretary Of War to begin
suits against hydraulic miners he was very
indignant. OF all his achievements here

the clause struck out. He went to Cleve-
land to- day, and asked him to veto the
whole bill because that clause was restored.

nifty will avail much
