Probable Gain OF a Congressman.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dies. l9.-Fhe recount
of the votes for Mayor in this city is
showing gross frauds in the other votes ;
and BY the figures today there seems to be
little doubt that Phelps, the Republican
nominee for Congress- in the With District,
part of which Il in this city, was counted
out by the partisans Of Clunie, the Demo
crat. The official majority for Clunie was
only fifty-one, and yesterdays unofficial
eleven votes. while Cluuie lost forty. nine,
thus giving Phelps an actual increase OF
sixty. To-day Phelps made a net gain Of
twenty-five, making his plurality thirty
one.
AOf course, "A the certificate has been is
sued to Clunie, Phelps's only recourse
will be to have careful recount made, to
present the figures before Congress, and
to contest Clunie's seat. IL the house is
Republican, he will get the place to which
he WAS fairly elected. The Democrats
assert that the Republican tally in this re-
count il at fault, but 40 two careful men
have taken 1t, and their figures agree,
there can be no question as to its accnrs-
cy. There can he little doubt that Phelps.

Resolutions about the Tram Isthmian
Canal Introduced In the Senate by
Mr.. Edmunds.

The resolutions introduced In the Senate
last week by Mr.. Edmuuds concerning the
control of the Trans-Isthmian Canal, built
under foreign auspices, which were re-
ferred to the Committee on Foreign Re
lations, are IS follows:
Resolved, That the Government of the
United States will look with serious concern
and disapproval upon any connection of any
European Government with the construction
or control of any ship canal across the 18th
mus of Darlem or across Central America
and must regard any such connection or con-
troll a. Injurious to the just rights and inter
ests Of the United States and AS a menace to
their welfare.
Resolved, That the President of the
United States be requested to communicate
this expression of the views of Congress to
the Governments of the countries of Europe
The terms of these resolutions are
reasonable and prudent, OF which no
European Power has the least right to
complain. Neither American statesman
ship nor patriotism can insist on less.
