A New Combination.

A new political combination, which was
in process of formation. has been spoiled by
the action Of the Democratic County Com
mittee in Offering 10 compromise with Suffer
street. The story was told by George Fay
lor. to whom ii was impaired in burst of
confidence by ex-senator jeremiah Lynch.
According to the latter's statement he and
Sam Rainey met soon after the late Grand
Jury went out of existence and Sam asked
for a conference. Now Mr.. Lynch objected
to being seen, and looked about for a Sc
cluded place. 1t was found in a small room
In the upper story of the building occupied
by the Bohemian Club.
When they were seated Rainev said !:
" Now look here, Lynch, there is no reason
why you should oppose me. l have always
been your friend, and have made point to
show that you were i'll treated. When Buck
threw you down i demonstrated, but you
know how obstinate Buck is at times. | got
great many of my friends to GO to him and
protest against taking your money for
nomination which you failed to secure but
Buck was obdurate, and we could do moth
ing. Now we both have a great many
friends, and together we could make a
strong combination. Think 1t over and let
me know what you think of it,"
Lynch was thinking it over when the
crash came, and now he is puzzled.

passions are aroused by the fascination of

we ieel authorized TO state that Schmidt was
preparing TO make his exit from this world
Our opponents saw the retraction was pur-

Attorney desire TO hang a man upon the
testimony OF witness who will sell re-
traction? So, in these circumstances it is
proposed by the District Attorney that this
man shall be hanged. AmaZng-astound-

POLITICAL EVENTS.

A Call for Republican Convention i'm
Maya New Combination.
The recent conference with De Young has
proved fruitful topic of conversation
among the local politicians, and notwith-
standing the fact that Colonel Burns pleads
ignorance there are number of men Of
truth and standing In the Republican party
who will assert that the details as given in

but the better element Of the Republican
party are determined that his vapo7

party at the polls in the coming election.
The Democrats. it Is said, have already
organized conspiracy to push him for
ward as an issue In the canvass, knowing
that to impress this upon the people of the
State would mean thousands of votes for
the opposition. That is how the matter
stands, and that is why the Republicans of
the better class are endeavOrinG to shake

CHINESE REGISTRATION.
Some Opinions Concerning the state Law
Thereon.

The act Of the Legislature which was ap-
proved March 20, 1891, and which goes into
effect to-day relative to the registration of
Chinese. is causing some little speculation.
Morris NJ. Estee is of the opinion that the
law Is good one, but the difficulty would
be, in his opinion, to enforce it. No check
upon immigration of that kind could be too
severe.
Paris KiIburn was doubtful as to the en-
tire constitutionalty of the law, but re-
garded it as move in the right direction.
1.-The legislation upon this subject" said
he, " needs to be looked after at once or we
will be overrun with Chinese"
General John +. Sheehan-I regard the
law as good one. but it seems to me as if it
will be hard one to enforce. The Chinese
all oppose it bitterly and have good counsel
employed.
John c. Quinn have paid but little at
tention to IT. but the law seems to be one
we need. No halfway measures should be
taken in dealing with the Chinese.
Ex-Judge j. +. Sullivan-The Chinese
problem is a peculiar one and l think the
law should be given fair trial in order to
see If 1t will not give us the desired relief.
Judge j. G. Maguire-I believe the law to
be just one, and 1t should be rigidly en-
forced More legislation is needed on the
subject. however, and Congress should lose
no time in acting.

Freeman's Prison Cell
SACRAMENTO, March 19.-If Governor
Markham had failed to commute the SEN
tence OF Charles Freeman the chances are
that the murderer of Mark Feeny would be
dead on slab at the Morgue to-day, and
from his own hand. This morning care
full search was made of the cell occupied by
Freeman for SO many months. Nothing
was discovered until Jailer johnson picked
UP bar OF common soap. He observed an
incision therein and cut the bar in two. In
II was found section of the handle OF a
common pewter or tin spoon. This had
Deen ground to the sharpness of razor and
was about two inches in length. With il
freeman could easily have severed his jugu-
lar, and that he had so intended there is no
ooubt. Those who know Freeman have
often commended that before he would suffer
death on the scaffold he would take his own
lie, and 1t appears they knew whereof they
spoke IL Is believed that the piece Of
spoon was smuggled into his cell and that
II was never sharpened by Freeman himself.
