the night a doctor was summoned to his
bedside. He was sinking rapidly and died
a few hours after the medical man arrived.
County Auditor RinRwald, thinking there
was something suspicious about the sudden
death. instructed the coroner to hold an in

in the election Of United States senator to

dates are Stephen ". White, Of Los Angeles;

man, OF San Francisco. on the democratic
side; Hon. G. N. FELTON,, of San Mateo, and
M. Fl. De Young and Morris M. Estes. OF

democrats lack only two votes OF Q majority
on joint ballot, while the republicans lack
eight, A statement is made 70 the effect
that the entire populist vote would be cast
with the republicans for the election Of
United States senator. but this is denied by
several of tho populists, who state they will
vote a. a unit, their preference being Thos
v. Gator. of San Francisco. The repnb-
licans and democrats are now looking after
doubtful votes, Burke, who was elected to
tho assembly as non partisan. and Carl

OF whom are classsd with the republicans.
