The House Committee to Recommend
Gnseating FELTON,.

fCoPggat, 1888, by the California Associrted PSessI
WASHINGTON, June 1Oth.-There is little
doubt but determined effort will be made
to unseat Congressman FELTON,, whose seat
is, contested by young Sullivan. All the
testimony Is in and the argument has been
made on both sides. Sullivan has been
assisted, it is said, in this fight by his
father-in-law, Phelan. This information
comes from Democratic member of the
committee. The minority report will be in
favor of FELTON,, whose friends do not be-
lieve he was beaten. A stubborn fight will
be made for him when the matter comes
up in the House. The majority report will
not be signed by all the Democrats, unless
the party whip is brought into use.
The kicker against the decision of the
Democrats of the committee IS Mr. Heard,
of MissoGri. He believes Felton fully en-
titled to his seat, and will so express him.

already done all he could in committee,
but was overridden. The Democrats are
anxious to keep the matter as, quiet as pos

possibse. There is considerable doubt of

A FIENDISH ACT.
Attempt by a Discarded Lover to Kill q
Young Woman


lC2pyrfg, 1883, by he California associated Press
STOCKTON, June 10th.-Late on SATURDAY.
night Information was received here that
a young lady named Julia Craig, aged about
IL years, residing about two miles from
town, had been murdered. The Sheriff
and other officers went to the place and
found that the report was only partly true.
Miss Craig, the youngest daughter of r. w.
Craig, well-to-do farmer, and ANDY Hoe
fitch, young farm laborer, had been en-
gagged lovers, but the girl broke off the en-
gagement at the solicitation of her parents.
Hoetiich has worked on the Craig ranch
for some time and his betrothed had oppor-
tunities to observe his profligate habits.
When she told Hoeflich that she would not
marry him he went away in fit of pas
sion, and afterward vowed to destroy both
the girl and himself.
On Saturday night, shortly after Julia
and her sister had retired to their bedroom
upstairs, they heard footsteps on the stairs.
The bedroom door was opened and the
intruder, striking light, revealed to the
frightened women the form of Hoetlich.
He had taken off his shoes, and was hold
ing them in one hand. Julia arose and
demanded OF the discarded suitor what he
did there. His only reply was
A BLOW WITH HIS FIST.
Knocking the girl down. Before she
could recover herself he made rapid pass
at her throat with knife and, turning.
jumped from the two-story window and
was seen no more.
The household and neighbors were
aroused, and officers and physicians sum-
moned. The cut in the girls throat was
deer, one, three inches long, and had
barely missed the jugular vein. The Off
bers at first thought it probable that Hoe
fitch had carried his threat of double muir
der into execution, but vigilent search for
the would-be assassin failed to develop
any clue leading to his whereabouts.
This evening he is still at large. His
victim is in a fair way of recovery About
twelve years ago brother of Hoeflich was
convicted in this county of incest and SEN
fenced TO the State Prison.

Cleveland's Change OF Opinion Regard-

Ing Thurman.
CHICAGO, June 10th.-A special from
Washington says: Yesterday Mayor Hew-

Dernoerat If he would support the Demo-
cratic national ticket. ish said that he

nominated, and six months, ago he knew
that Allen G. Thurman Wculd be Clsye-
lands running-mate.

L Will support the ticket or not, but it does
seem little strange that Mr.. Cleveland
should select Mr.. Thurman at this time es
the Vice Presidential candidate, in face os
the fact thas he refused to honor Mr.. Thur
man with any position of trust after his
election to the Presidency. Scme weeks
after the election in 1884 | was summoned
Ito Albany by Mr.. Cleveland. He told me
that he was thinking over various names
which had been presented to him for Cabi-
net places and he asked me if / had any
name to suggest.
II saidr" continued Hewitt, '''Mr. Presi-
dent, the man whom you should place at
the head of your Cabinet is Allen G. Thur
man. Cleveland's reply was, He is TOO
DID, l said No, he is not too old Thur
man is good for twenty years, and besides
his mental faculties are unimpaired.'
Cleveland then said, But his habits are
bad. My response to this extraordinary
statement was, Mr.. President, if you think
that, why don't you send somebody to 60
lumbus to find out what Mr. Thurman's
personal habits are?' and to my surprise
he replied Il will do so; and he actu-
ally sent detective to find out if Allen G.
Thurman ever took a drink of whisky or
not. Things have changed since 1884"
Being pressed, hewever, as to whether he
would support Mr.. Cleveland, Mayor
Hewitt declined positively to define his DO.

CHICAGO, June 10th.-Lieutenant Gov
ernor Stephen NJ. White of California. who
was temporary Chairman of the ST. Louis
Convention, was ct the Palmer House to-
day. He leaves tomorrow for the East.
He expressed himself delighted with the
strength exhibited by the new ticket.
California is close State" he said, but
with Thurman l think we can carry it.
Thurman will draw Republican votes, be-
cause he placed himself right on the rail-
road and Chinese questions. In fact. Blaine
has only initiated Thurman on the Chinese
question, from which he has raised so much
benefit. Thurman is strong with the labor
ers and farmers. He is strong with every
body. If Blaine should be nominated the
result might be dubious, but l should be
glad to see Sherman nominated. He could
not get Pacific coast State"
How do you account for Oregon's large
Republican majority ?'
Oregon has never gone Democratic in a
PRESIDENTIAL year. 1t is irretrievably Re
publican, and the vote this year increased
about one-third."
