LEGISLATIVE NOTES.

Senator Ostrom yesterday distributed
several baskets of oranges among the
Senators with the compliments Of the
managers of the Marysville Citrus Fair.
Senator Wilson supposed that his joint
resolutions concerning Government loans
to farmers would be taken up by the SEN
ate yesterday afternoon, wherefore he
had distributed copies of the speech he in
tended to deliver in their support. lie
was one day ahead Of time.
When the bill to appropriate money to
complete the stone steps in Capitol Park
was reached on the Senate file yesterday
a prominent Democratic Senator was pre-
pared to oppose it; but after Senator Dray
had explained that the failure to COM
plete the steps was due to a clause in
serted in the bill at the last session, de-
claring that the work must be done by
days labor, and that incompetent men
had been forced upon the Democratic
Capitol Commissioners at big wages, the
gentleman concluded to forego his speech,
and the bill went through smoothly.
The constitutional amendment extend
ing the legislative sessions from sixty to
one hundred days, passed the Senate yes
terday with but one dissenting voice
that of Senator Heacock.

Hockey POKEY.
The Case of 'sJack'' Tucker Partly Elk
amined In the Police Court.

The Case of sfJack'' Tucker Partly Ex-
amined In the Police Court.
John Moore was given an opportunity
in the Police Court yesterday of telling
how he lost $3.50 in a hokey-pokey game
at Considine's saloon several evenings
ago.
Jack" Tucker, the dealer of the game
who was arrested at the instance of Moore,
and charged with obtaining money by
fraud and trickery, announced himself as
ready for examination, and was repre-
scented by attorney Frank Easterbrook.
Hiram Johnson and City Attorney
Hart conducted the prosecution of the
case, which consumed part of the morn
ing session and the entire afternoon. A
number OF witnesses were sworn, and the
evidence produced went to show that on
the evening of the alleged robbery, the
defendant and a couple of partners in
duced Moore to play at the game and
kept himputting up his coin until he had
lost $3.50.
A party named L. Parker started to in
,terfere and prevent Moore from betting
all of his money, when he was ushered
out of the place and offered S. if he would
not interfere with the game. 1t was also
in evidence, that when the police entered
the place, pack of cards, supposed to be
a false deck, were thrown under the table
by Tucker, the dealer.
The defense objected to many of the
questions asked of witnesses by the pros
ecution, but all of the objections were
Overruled, Judge Cravens declaring that
he wanted to hear all of the details in the
case, SO that he might become thoroughly
posted.
The further hearing of the case was con-
tinued until to-day.

Willy All CLING.
He Is In Custody Again, and Mr.. Har

He Is in Custody Again, and Mr.. Har-
low Feels Better.
All Cling, the Chinaman who has been
the source of so much anxiety to William
III. Harlow of late, is in custody once
more, and Mr.. Harlow breathes freer.
Ging's case was called in Judge Van
Fleets Court yesterday, but as another
case was on trial the matter had to be
postponed until February Sd.
Cling and another heather induced Har-
low to cash bogus check for them some
time ago.. They divided the money, and
were getting out of town when Harlow
discovered that he had been swindled. A
hot chase ensued, resulting in the capture
of Cling. The other Chinaman, however,
escaped. Cling readily gave up his share
of the spoils, and Harlow had so much
confidence in Ging's ability to hunt up
the other half of the money that he went
on the heathen's bond.
Cling then disappeared, and was not
found until yesterday.
In order to gain his liberty again Cling
must find new bondsmen who will qualify
for $1,000 each, that being the amount
Judge Van Fleet fixed upon yesterday.

DAILY SESSIONS.
Mr.. Carpenter moved that, for the pres
ent week, the Senate shall adjourn at $3.50
O'Clock p. NJ, in order to give committees
an opportunity to consider bills. Carried.
The first bin taken up on the special
file was S. B. 1877, appropriating $4,000 for
the completion of the stone steps in the
Capitol Park.
Mr.. Dray said that two years ago the
bill providing for the original work was
amended against his strenuous protest,
by providing that the work should be
done by day labor. The Capitol Commits
sioners, in their report to the Legislature,
explained the difficulties they had to con-
tend with on this account. Men had been
forced upon the State through political
pressure. and some of them did not do
one hours work in eight. Party service.
and not competency. had been recognized
as the proper qualification for employees
on the work. This was the result of the
amendment made to the bill at the dicta-
ton of politicians. The only way in
which to have public work done is by
contract, and if that ordered done two
years ago had been let by contract it
would have been WE'LL and cheaply done.
Mr.. Campbell of Solano made a speech
on the bill, in which he rallied against in
competent management of public work
generally, including that let by contract.
The bill was then passed by a vote of %
ayes to 10 noes.
Recess until 1:30 P. NJ.
