SAN Francisco, January 18.-General
M. g. Vallejo, one of the most conspicu.
GUS figures in the history of California,
died at Sonoma today, aged 80. General
Vallejo was born in Monterey, this State,
and was identified with all the public
events during the Mexican occupation Of
California, and was at one time military
governor of the country.
Mariana Guadalupe Vallejo was born
at Monterey in 1903, and received his
education in that town, entering the
Mexican military service early in life.
He was quickly promoted through many
ranks, and in 1880 moved to San
Francisco as the result OF his ap.
pointment to the military command at
that place. He was engaged in many
compaigns against the Indians, and was
at one time taken prisoner by them.
He founded Sonoma in 1885, and
in 1885 was made Commandante
General of California. He was indefatig-
able in his efforts to settle up and de-
velop the State, and before the conquest
was among the most prominent of it's
Mexican citizens. General Vallejo was a
member of the Constitutional Conven-
ton of 1S49, and spent the
greater part of his maturer years
in the town of Sonoma. The town
site of Benicia was given by him to
the original settlers of the place, and
was named after his wife, one of the
Carrillo family of San Diego, to whom he
was married in 1882 and by whom he
had thirteen children

BERLIN, January 18.-In the Reichstag
the budget has passed second reading.
The proposition to exempt from military
service all theological students was re-
jected; the proposition for mitigating
the terms of service of students was &C.
cepted. There was great interest taken
in Fridays debate on the subject OF an
African steamship line. DR.. Bamberger,
for the German Liberals, DR.. Windthorst
and Professor Virchow energetically
opposed the bill. Ex-Minister Hobrecht
practically incurred it's passage by prom
Using to support the National Liberals
upon the second reading of the bill.
DR.. Schwenninger, Prince Bismarcks d
physician, counsels him to remain It
Friedrichsruhe, but it is asserted he in
sists upon going to Berlin, in the hope If
forcing the passage of the Socialist bill,
and to give inspiration and war cry far
the electoral conflict, to the Government
parties.
The Westphalian Gazette repeats tho
accusation of its Hamburger correspon-
dent, that the strikes throughout Ger
many are fomented by French agents, kept
going by French money. 1t is not un-
likely that this is sort of sugges-
tion, and that Bismarck himself will
advance an argument relating to this
idea, in favor of the passage of the So
cialist bills, because in this guise he
would be asked for authority not to
expel from Germany people driven to
desperation, but an aWfully wicked lot of
Frenchmen sent in to make unhappy an
otherwise prosperous and contented peo-
pie.
Prof. Virchoff, addressing his con-
stituents this week, declared that it was
his intention to propose in the next
Reichstag a general international dis
armment as the true solution of the
trouble and condition of Europe, and the
revolt Of the overburdened people.
At official quarters there is a general
denial of FSgaro's story that Portugal
has appealed to Bismarck againet Eng
lands action as violation of the ;reaty
of Berlin. 1t is asserted that the Gov,
ernment is determined to preserve an
attitude of strietest neutrality with Eng
land, with whom Germany desires to &c
hand in hand in colonial affairs as far
as possible.
