OSBORNE WILL RELENT.
Probability That Senator Will Be
Elected From Wyoming.

CHEYENNE, Wyo.. Aug. 2S.-The news
that the Senate declines to seat the ap-
pointed Senators reyives interest here in
the question OF the Governors calling a
special session Of the Legislature to fill
the vacancy from Wyoming. Although
Governor Osborne has declared several
times that he would not call a special ses-
sion, it is believed pressure will be brought
TO bear upon him by his party and by the
friends of silver in both parties and that
he will change his position on the question
and call the Legislature together at once
II the session is called elections will be
necessary in two Senatorial districts, from
one of which it is believed a Republican
will be elected and from the other Demo-
crat. so The relative strength of the parties
in special session will be the same as in
the one which failed to elect Senator, the
combined vote in which was twenty-four
Republicans, twenty Democrats and five
Populisls.

so busy with Southern Pacific matters as
to preclude the consideration of others.
But have reached the conclusion, and so
have members of the Council. that Oak
land had better own its own water supply
and not depend on corporations. The mat
ter will be pushed at once"
Oakland cannot act too quickly in the
matter, for few days ago the Alameda
City Council visited the tract aud exam
lned the wells. But for that matter there
Is enough water for both cities, and they
might combine.
The question of Oakland controlling her
own water supply came before the Council
sooner than was expected. After an even
Ing OF routine business last night the fol-
lowing resolution was introduced at IL
o'clock:
That the president OF this Council be and Is
hereby requested to appoint special commit.
lee OF three members of this Council TO investi-
gate and report to this Council on a plan or
plans for the acquisition OF water works by the
city.
The lateness OF the hour and the weari-
some business Of the evening caused those
in the lobby to pay little attention to the
resolution, but the members of the Conn
ell glanced significantly at one another
when the clerk had finished. Mr.. Dalton
moved its adoption and unanimous vote
followed.
President Towle said he would appoint
the members of the committee after con-
slderation. He undoubtedly wishes to
confer with Mayor Pardee and Chairman
Capell. The resolution is terse and to the
point and means az much to the residents
OF the city as any resolutions introduced in
years.
