Associated Press Dispatches. (
SACRAMENTO, March 18.-When the
rumor became current yesterday alter
noon that documentary evidence had
been found which, it was alleged, impli-
Gated certain legislators in attempted
bribery in connection with the senatorial
contest, demands were at once made by
De Young and FELTON,, two of the sena-
torial candidates, that Attorney-Gene
Hart at once produce such evidence and
cause an investigation. The latter, re.
plying to them, stated that he had no
evidence duplicating them in any way,
nor, so far as he knew, sufficient to
formulate charges against anyone.
AN INVESTIGATION ORDERED.
Immediately upon the opening of the
senate this morning, Senator Voorhies
introduced joint resolution calling
upon both houses to appoint a commits
tee Of three to meet with tho attorney
general, for the purpose OF investigating
the documents which were found in the
state library yesterday. The committee
appointed by the president is Voorhies,
Crandall and Berry.
DIBBLE MAKES A STATEMENT.
In the assembly, Dibble, speaking on
the joint resolution said IT hope the
resolution will be adopted. There have
been published certain statements in
various newspapers, which reflect upon
my integrity in this house. court the
fullest and most complete investigation.
There is no scrap paper in existence
which will implicate me in any im-
proper matter. 1t happened yesterday
morning that Captain Marion and sat
in that room, in the library, and dis
cussed certain measures. l wrote the
names of certain members that knew
to be opposed to . bill we were discuss-
ing. This slip Of paper I afterwards
destroyed. never have been connect
ed in any manner whatever with any at
tempt at bribery of legislators. There
is not among the papers held by the at
torney-general (and know not what he
has), one single scrap of paper, of any
kind, which can be construed into show
ing any such any such attempt, or
which can be justified in any manner
Young moved that the members Of
the committee be increased from three
to five. The motion was adopted. This
sent the resolution back to the senate,
where it was concurred in, and the
speaker appointed the following assem-
blymen to act on the joint committee
to investigate the alleged bribery

Cshsss : Partial blockade Of ths sunset
Route.

Route.
SAN FRANcIsCo, March 18.-News has
been received in railroad circles of this
city, that a break in the Mississippi
levee, above Crosse Tete, has practicslly
closed the Sunset route between Lafay--
cite and New Orleaps, distance of 1876
miles. AZ q large proportion of what is
known as the seaboard traffic ia sent to
and from the east, from San Francisco
over this. route, the break might
readily have proved q serious
disaster to the Southern Pacific COM
pany, but the difficulty has been fully
and promptly met by the transshipping
Of freight as Galveston, and diverting
passenger traffic over other southern
roads, by way Of Ell Paso, San Antonio
and Houston. Nearly the whole of the
flooded space between Lafayette and
New Orleans is traversed by the railroad
on trestle work, and the assumption is
that this is all gone. It will take at
least twenty days to reopen communica-
ton, if the Mississippi fails enough to
permit the break to be gotten at.

train robberies. Dalton is brother of
the other DaltonS now in Jail in Visalia.
He resided near Livingston, in this

we'll known, having married the
daughter of prominent rancher. No

ing class, and the officers claim that the
robberies were committed by them

him, on the ground that he could not
explain his vote until he had cast it..
Campbell refused to vote.

After the announcement of the total,

of corruption ought to be cleared up
before any further voting takes place.

matter cleared up. 1t was of the mt
most Importance for the legislature to
clear it's skirts of this scandal.
Galbraith spoke in favor Of FELTON,.
He said some mysterious scraps of paper
had been found in the library, which
resulted in number of men refusing to
vote for Mr.. FELTON,. He said he wanted
the most thorough investigation.
He was interrupted twice by Matlock,
