Senator Jones Hints that Surprise is in
Store for Somebody.
Copyright. 1883. by the California associated FressI
WASHINGTON, August 26th-The Senate
will probably devote one or two days this
week to discussion of the Presidents
message on the fisheries before it is referIe ed
to the Foreign Affairs Committee There
are several Republican Senators who desire
to speak on the subject. and they will un-
questionably be answered by their Demo
cratic opponents.
Senator Jones of Nevada expresses the
opinion that some measure will be re-
ported to give the President chance to
redress any grievance that American citi-
zens suffer at the hands of the Canadian
authorities, and that report will accom-
pany such measure which will cast flood
of light upon the whole subject of the re-
lationship between the United States and
Canada.
Senator Jones says that the Presidents
message on the fisheries will not be allowed
to divert attention from the main issue of
the campaign, the tariff. The Finance
Committee has been able for some time to
report substitute for the Mills bill, but,
acting under the advice of some of the
ablest men in the party, the report has
been purposely delayed. 1t is possible
that in the end no bill will be reported, but
at the present time it is the firm intention
of the Republican members of The commit
tee to report bill, and it will be laid be-
fore the full committee as soon as it is
deemed expedient to do co.
In the House there is likelihood of The
return of many absent Democratic member.
this week. If Wilson's bill on the subject
of the fisheries is to be passed, it may re-
quire the attendance of Democratic
quorum to put it through.
The fight will be continued over the
clause in the general deficiency bill to pay
the French spoliation claims.

EXTENSIVE ROBBERY.

A San Francisco Residence Plundered of
Sse.e0e In Daylight.
SAN FRANCISCO. August 26th.-[Special ]
One of the most daring daylight burglaries
which has come to the attention of the
police for some time was committed at $50
o'clock this afternoon. Mrs. Padoy's resi-
dence at $50 Olive avenue was broken into
by burglars during the absence of the fam
lily, and 600 worth of diamonds and
jewelry carried away.
The house is three-story frame struct-
ure, and is situated within short distance
of Laguna street. This afternoon Mrs.
PADDY and her three children locked up
the house and visited some friends in the
Western Addition. They returned
home at 5 O'Clock, and were not
aware that burglars had paid them
visit until Mrs. Padoy's son
went upstairs, intending to go to his
room. As ne assembled the stairs and
| walked along the hallway he discovered
| that his mothers room had been entered
| in her absence.
The bed was literally depleted of its
| covering. and the mattress was cut in
| pieces. The bureau drawers were taken
out and thoroughly ransacked. Two other
bed-chambers on the same floor were also
| robbed of their valuables, and the furniture
\ was scattered all over the room.
| Mrs. PADDY was notified by her SOD, and
| hurriedly rushing up stairs she immedi-
ately went TO her room to see if her dia-
mond necklace was missing. The drawer
in which it was kept was broken open and
| the necklace, which Mrs. PADDY valued at
| s., ,000 was taken.
J She is very much distracted over the loss
of the necklace, as it was presented to hel
| by her dead husband short while after
| her marriage. A subsequent examination
| by her showed that the burglars bad de-
camped with several valuable diamonds
! rings, four watches and other iewelry, all o
which is valued at $4,000.
| When Captain Lees was notified of tht
burglary he Immediately detailed detec.
tives Dan Coffey and Hanley to look up ths
case. They visited the scene of the burg
larry and were unable to obtain any cleV
which would lead to the capture OF the
burglars.
From the clumsy manner in which th,
| window was opened the detectives ar,
firmly convinced that the thieves wer
novices in the business.
LATER-THE WORK OF EEIGHBoRs' BOYS.
A little girl, whose name could not b
ascertained, subsequently gave the detect
ives what is thought to be a cor
rect description of the burglars. 1t il
stated that she recognized then
SIS the sons of respectable people who liz
in the immediate vicinity of the burglary
Their names were given to the detectives
but up to late hour no arrests had beer
made.

THE WEEKS WORK.
forecasts OF the Business to be DoEs by
Congress This Week.


WASHINGTON, August 26th-The unSs-
isfsd business of the Senate-the bill to Ad-
nit Washington TeTritory-wilI probably
be lad aside sgain tomorrow temporarily,
and thereafter from day to day until the
debate on the Presidents message is ovey
and it is referred to the Committee on For
eign Eslations. Senator George has the
floor for speech upon the message when
it come5up.
Another matteTwhich Till interfere with
the consideration Of unfinished business is
the Jackson, Miss, political riot resolu-
tions. These were called ap.on Thursday
merely for the pugDose of giving Senator
Wilson, of Iowa, an opportunity to deliver
a speech, which is not yet finished. If.
upon its conclusion, 3enator Ptgh or any
one on the Democratic side wishes to re-
ply, custom and courtesy will require that
the opportunity be given.
The bills to admit North Dakots and
Montana are likely. to be taken Ep after the
Washington Territory bill.
Whether or not the week will be blank
in the House, from legislative standpoint,
will depend upon the measure of success
attending the effort to secure the presence
and continuous attendance of quorum.
1t is the present intention to suspend the
hospitalities engendered by the French
stipulation claims long enough to allow the
House to act upon the conference report
upon the sundry civil appropriation bill,
which is expected to be ready tomorrow.
After that has been disposed of the struggle
will be renewed upon the general de-
fieiency bill. Later the conferees on the
army appropriation bill are expected TO
report and the Foreign Affairs Committee
NAV report to the House during the week
the Wilson retaliatory bill.

WAR CLAIMS.
Senator Stewards Labors In Behalf OF
Pacific Coast States.

OOdSb StsAeCbs
[oop,r1ga. 1855. by he California associated Prc,s
WASHINGTON, August 26th. - Senator
Stewart has made an elaborate report on
the State war claims of California, Oregon
and Nevada in support and explanation of
the bill reported from the Senate Commit
tee on Military Affairs, the object of which
is to ascertain the amount of money paid
by the States above mentioned for common
defense in the securing, arming, etc. Of vol
unteers for the purpose of guarding the
overland mail and emigrant routes and
taking the place of regulars to defend the
borders and suppress Indian hostilides sub
seouent to April 15 1861. Also to ascer-
tain the amount of interest paid by these
States on the principal borrowed and ex-
pended for reimbursement by the United
STATES.
The report says that the condition of af-
fairs in these remote States was serious.
Indeed, the absence of United States regu-
lar troops, withdrawn from the Pacific
| Coast, rendered it absolutely necessary that
the overland mail and eraigrant route
should be guarded from incarsions of hostile
Indians, and this was done most efficiently
| by volunteers from the States IN question
| To the calls for volunteers for the war oi
the rebellion, and for guarding the Pacific
railway routes, the State responded prompt
| ly and faithfully. California's quota d
enlisted volunteers aggregated nearly 10000
men. The amount of these claims arising
subsequent to April Is, 1864, are: Califor
MIA, 81, ,93S, 1928; Oregon, $S9e 623; Nevada
$34l, ,137; total, s., SOC, ,5S1. The authority
and precedents for the United States to pay
these claims is based upon the fourth sec
ton of the fourth article, and the tentl
section of the first article of the Constitu
ton of the United States. and upon Secre
tary Stewards letter calling upon the Gov
ernors of loyal States TO put their States il

sive robbery was committed yesterday in
the livery stable of James Hennessey in
this city. Hennessey employed as book
keeper a nephew named William Mernin,
aged about IS years. Yesterday Hennessey
went to Dowieville, and last evening about
8 o'clock Mernin saddled the best horse in
the stable and telling the hostlers he would
be back in couple of hours, started off.
This morning one of the men, being q
little worried about Mernin's non-appear-
ance, went into the Office of the stable and
found the safe open, with the outer lock
broken.
About IL o'clock to-day Hennessey re-
turned from Downieville, and says that
there was about SIS 900 in the safe. The
