John Brink, the caterer and strong

evening via the Santa Fe. His depart

by the news that his mother was ill in
Philadelphia. He will be absent two
months, during which time he will
visit the worlds fair and other points OF

DR.. Thos. ]. Mccoy, who is we'll

has returned with his family to their
home on West Twenty-third street from
New York city, where he was house
surgeon for several months past. Max
ing two trips, the doctor has spent
nearly two years away preparing on the
eye, ear and throat in New York and
Europe, and says Southern California
seems to be very interesting subject to
people, even 30 far off as Paris, France /:
that when they found he was from Los
Angeles he was besieged with questions
regarding this country. The impress
sions are favorable and there is desire
to come here TO live. The California
exhibit at the Worlds fair is receiving
seemingly more attention than any other
state exhibit and the orange comparison
with Florida is greatly in favor of our

Dealing with the Late Omosrs of thu
Republican League.
San Francisco Examiner: You're
a bit of bohemian, Frank. We like
to see You around. and you'll get your
pay later was what Cham berlAin told
me. But I never got she money. and
that's what all this troubles abeut,' ~
explained Frank H. Lombard to Judge
Hunt yesterday. M
Lombard was suing William H. Cham
beriain, late president OF the Republican
league, to recover 5000 alleged to be due
ior services while he was acting at as
slstant secretary OF the organization.
Inc much sought after Chamberlain
was not on hand to give his version Of
the matter. He 10 living q sequestered
life at present in the wilds about ST.
Helena. All he had to say concerning
the dispute in hand was conveyed in a
bulky deposition. It was simply to the
point that Lombard told the league that
he would waive all claims to back paw at
the time his salary was raised to $3.50 q
month, the time the league was officially
organized.
The 5000 was contracted while It was
in the throes of incompleteness. The
whole question was whether Chamber
lain was responsible for the pay.
"Nr. Lombard. didn't you under
stand that your services while the
league was being whipped into shape
we're to be paid from contributions from
prominent Republicans 2" asked Attor.
ney Hof Cook for Chamberlain.
s"Well," was the reply. II believe
Stanford was to give $4,000 and FELTON,
$2500."
Didn't you ask Chamberlain to 20
hands?"
"Oh, I suggested thousand and one
things to get my salary"
Now, didn't you and Chamberlain
jump into this proposition of a league
with the understanding that pay should
cess ?" -
mo, sir. Chamberlain went in to
boom the proposition. He was to get
what he could out OF it. was to get
my salary and good position when the
Republicans gathered in the spoils."
"You didn't contribute your services
as stenogrspher. then, on the under
standing that you'd get nothing in case
OF defeat, and big plum in case Of VIC
tory? ?"
mot much"
Didn't you waive back pay at the
time they raised and fixed your salary
at $150?"
mot much; Chamberlain appointed
the executive committee that fixed my
salary at $3.50. He told me that that
was the best he could do for me at the
time. | was official reporter to the
railroad commission and he was drawing
good salary as bank examiner. When
the wreck fell on us 1 came out with
nothing"
Lombard furnished several ex.mem-
bers of the league who testified that it
was understood he should get something
for his services as assistant secretary.
Judge Hunt gave him judgment for
S900-nine months pay.
What Lombard will do with the judg-
ment no man knows.

To THEIR own surprise the directors
of the First National bank found them
selves in condition to reopen that insti-
tuition yesterday. They had supposed
that it would be impossible to reopen
before Monday. but the energetic efforts
of the officials and of Bank Examiner
Wightman had smoothed everything 30
that the work was done at once, and
ahead OF expectations. In the short
space of two hours the bank took in
$260,0O0 more than it paid out. OF this
vast sum $207 900 was deposits, and the
remaining $4,000 was on account of
stock on the reorganization plan.
Nothing could we'll be more agreeable
than such showing. No community
ever got over its madness more quickly
than that of Los Angeles. Our people
will now doubtless begin to realize
the fact that they are living
in the most progressive region
in the United States or in the world,
and that all they need to do is to de-
velop the marvellous country in which
their lot ia cast. This is the country to
live in, to get rich in and TO die in. Los
Angeles has reached the stage in her
career in which, the brick building hay
ing replaced the 'dobe, the brick will in
turn give place to granite, mal bic, terra
Gotta. etc. We are juss entering on the
era of palaces, and everyone who has
not sense enough to see the euperb
promise OF this city and county would
do a mighty sensible thing by getting
out of here, or getting himself converted

the fact that it costs $25 month-or ia

QUITE LIVELY IN THE HOUSE.
The Fight Being Principally Between the
Speaker and Republicans.

The Fight Being Principally Between the
Speaker and Republicans.
There WAS little that was exciting in
the senate, the whole day being taken up
with long speeches on the silver question:
George Of Mississippi making the principal
speech against the silver bill But things
were lively in the house. For several
days the Republicans had prevented the
report of the election law repeal bill with
out trouble and with few incidents worth
noting. This could not go on forever
There was bound to be livelier times. and
they began when the work of the rules
committee-at the meeting arranged for
after the Democratic caucus as reported
i'll these dispatches-was presented to the
house.
This report provided that upon its adop-
tion the speaker shall proceed to call COM
mittees for reports, and that until chat or
der is exhausted no motion whatever shall
be entertained. The order is denounced
by Reed and Burrows as the most drastic
in parliamentary history. Burrows said:
''In the Fifty-first congress all that we
ever did was to cut off dilatory motions
But now, il the Capitol should fall down
or take fire while the committees were be-
ing called, we could not even take recess {"
And so when Burrows made his usual mo-
tion to dispense with the call for reports of
committees, and Catchings presented re-
port from the committee on rules, the issue
was Joined and the real fight begun.
Burrows Immediately made the point
that the rules committee had no right to
originate an order of business, but the
speaker overruled the point promptly.
Burrows appealed, and after Fitch had
moved to lay the appeal on the table Bur-
rows moved recess of one hour. Catch
ings made the point that this motion was
out of order pending report from the
rules committee, and Burrows said there
was no report from the rules committee
before the house. He had objected to that
report and had raised point of order
against it, Besides, it had not even been
read. No report was in possession of the
house until it had been read.
The speaker wasn't troubled to get over
that objection. He ordered the clerk to
read clereporJ despite Jne angry objections
and protests of both Reed and Burrows.
Reed said that it was a recognized custom
in this and all other parliamentary bodies
that, whenever anybody had right to
object the physical fact of reading
measure would not obviate that objection.
This was very simple aud plain unrlia-

nIenLary law ABOUT wnIcn Jnere could be
no question. The gentleman from Missis-
sippi had proposed to present a certain
document to the house to be acted upon.
Prior to its reception the gentleman from
Michigan had made the point of order
to the speaker that it was not receivable
without any reference to the contents of
it. The question before the house was
whether the report should be received.
The speaker hAd recognized that was the
question by his rulings upon it. That
was the question before the house. That
ruling was one of the most surprising that
had ever bee made.
Democrats laughed al this, and Reed
continued and said that if the majority of
the house were ready to do this thing it
must take the consequences. ["We are
ready" came in a chorus from the Demo
cratic side.l The speaker had decided,
continued Reed, contrary to all parlia-
mentary rules, that a committee had a
right to originate legislation. That was a
new departure. The question was upon
the reception of the report of the commit
tee on rules. The speaker was undertak-
ing to have it received prior to tie action
of the house permitting its reception. 1t
made no difference whether the speaker
directed the clerk to call the roll or not.
The house had to decide, and until the
house decided the resolution was not be-
fore the house. He was aware that the
majority could override the plain prin-
ciples of parliamentary law; but if it in
tended to do SO he wanted to know it. If
Herod was to be ouS-Heroded, Herod
wanted to witness the transaction. Loud
and continued laughter and applause.l
The speaker ruled that the report was
ha OIL lot
mined by the house Then there were
more motions and Reed said that the
chair had decided Burrows motion dila-
tory motion, the speaker contending that
he simply ruled 1t not in order. Burrows
appeal was laid on the table and the
| speaker said that Burrows motion to dis
pense with the call was next in order. but
being corrected by Reed recognized Catch
| lngs to call up the rules committed re.
| port. There were more motions and ap.
peals which the speaker refused to enter
tain, and when Catchings demanded the
| previous question on the rules commit
tees report Payne raised the question OF
| consideration and the chair refused to en-.
tertain it. Then Payne appealed and
again the chair declined to entertain, say
| ing: The house has decided the question
| for itself"
"Whenf" queried Reed. Last Con-
gress,'' replied the speaker. Last con,
grers;" calculated Mr.. Reed, with an en-
phasis on the "last." Crisp then rose and
! "gave it out cold" that he would enter
tain no motion nor appeal on the matter
! pending. When Burrows moved to lay
the report on the table Crisp refused to
put it, nor would he entertain an appeal
So the vote on the demand for the previous
| question was reached and after three
trials carried-1s0 to the Republicans

repeal bill talk went on, George yielding

which the senate adjourned.

refused to entertain "dilatory" motions
