fought death with good deal OF vigor, and
although current of $50 volts was turned
upon it the reptile did not expire for nearly
half an hour.

and the current turned on.

WHAT WAS THE MONEY FOR:
No Evidence That Bribery Was Employed
in the California Senatorial Contest.

No Evidence That Bribery Was EMPLOYED
in the California Senatorial Contest.
The joint committee of the California senate
and assembly appointed to investigate the con-
tents of the waste basket found in the state
library, after citing that the money wrappers
found in the basket were covered with green
backs drawn from the Fresno Bank and thence
sent to the Croker Woolworth Bank of San
Francisco. and that the latter bank had paid the
money to John II. Jones' the messenger Of the
Southern Pacific railroad, and that the money
must have been brought to the state capital
within thirteen hours thereafter, says the total
amount of money SO drawn out by Jones was
81, 500.
The report, which was outlined in yester-
days STAR. cites that Assemblym Dibble and
Marion were in the private room of the state
library for forty-five minutes prior to the find
ing of the money wrappers. and that in the
waste basket there were some torn papers be-
longing to Dibble. The only other persons in
the library prior to the discovery of the money
wrappers were the state librarian and his as
sistant. The report concludes as follows:
1.-The committee found nothing to show that
the $500 in currency was used in any manner
to influence any member Of the legislature in
reference to the senatorial contest. No money
was used in behalf Of candidates to secure
their election as United States Senator and if
the $500 in currency had been improperly
used before the legislature the committee is
unable to state for what purpose it was used.
The committee issued subpoena for Jones. and
private detective was employed to ascertain
his whereabouts within two hours after it was
known he had drawn the money from the bank,
but up to this time both the sheriff of San
Francisco and the detective have been unable to
find Jones. The committee has handed the
original exhibits, as arranged BY the commit
tee, to the lieutenant governor, the president of
the senate. and recommended that they be
turned over to the governor for such action as
he may deem proper. As the committee is I'M
able to procure any other witnesses before the
adjournment tonight, it presents the foregoing
report"
In the senate yesterday Mr.. Preston intro
duced a resolution instructing the attorney
general to turn over the evidence found in the
waste basket of the state library office to the
grand jury OF Sacramento county for further
investigation as to the disposition Of the money
which was shown by the report of the investi-
eating committee to have been brought to the
capitol. The debate upon the resolution then
followed. Preston urged the members to have
care for their regulations, but the motion to
refer the matter to the judiciary committee
eventually carried.

Parnel1ites Prevented From Attending Q
Aeeting-Sligo Campaign.
While Mr.. Alexander Blame, Parnellite mem
Der Of Parliament for South Armagh, and q
number of other Parnellites were going to Dun
amore yesterday to attend meeting there Of
Parnells supporters they were mobbed by q
crowd of nationalist. The latter turned the
heads Of the horses attached to the carriages
conveying the Parnellites from Cookstown TO
Dunamore In the direction Of the former place
and finally compelled the Psrnellites to return
there, followed by a storm of hooting and jeer-
ing upon the part Of the nationalists.
Mr.. Parnell continues his Sligo campaign,
avoiding the hostile districts. In a speech yes
terday be advocated that the constabulary be
reduced from Is, 900 to 600 men, and that
be devoted to buying out the landlords. He
argued that judicial rents should be reduced 80
per cent.

Thomas P. O'Connor, in speech explaining

grounds to oppose Mr.. Parnell. Mr.. O'Connor
in concluding his speech, said that nothing
would dim the glory Of Mr.. Parnelrs past. II
was pity he had not been great enough to
despise the petty struggles for the leadership
and descend to the ranks instead Of rending the

BILE services. The meeting unanimously
adopted an expression of confidence in Mr..
O'Connor.

All the government officials send their cases to

the priests and doctors. The people are clam

cannot supply the increasing need We have
organized our work so far that only aged and
those who have no able-bodied helper and the
sick receive food, but the increasing num-
Der OF these arises from all the districts around

state of things, because with relief comes de-
moralization and the whole thing might have
been easily prevented had the advice of those
who understand the question been taken last
