VIEWING THE SITES
Legislators Still COurted by the
San Joseans.
They Are Given Buggy Rides and
Shown the Advantages of the
Burg for a Capitol City.
Special to THE MORNING CALI

SAN JOSE, EnEch 16.-San Jose is still
bubbling over with enthusiasm over the
visit of the legislators. The visitors were
late in arising out of their beds this morn
ing. the fatigue attending the several all
night sessions, travelling and the banquet
last evening compelling them to enjoy their
nights rest to the fullest extent
After they arose and had breakfasted
they were Immediately placed in charge Of
the reception committee, that is. such of the
legislators as did not leave for their homes
on the early morning train. Carriages and
four-in-hands were in waiting for those
who remained. and they were driven around
the city, visiting at the same time sites
suggested as suitable places for the Capitol
These were NaGlee Park, the fair grounds
and site near the University of the Pacific,
offered by j. w. Rea, Railroad Commits
sioner. Glimpses were also given Of Willows
and other orchard localities.
These attentions were greatly enjoyed
and the sites they saw confirmed the wisdom
OF the choice made in selecting this city as
the seat of government should the people so
decide.
This evening an informal reception was
given TO those who remained. Many citizens
and wives called at the Hotel Yendome to
pay their respects. Music and dancing was
enjoyed. This was entirely spontaneous.
DR.. ODOnneli Of San Francisco was in town
today enthusing the people. In 1873 he
introduced measure in the constitutional
convention to remove the capital to San
Jose, but it was defeated by fifteen votes.

PARIS. March TO- Barbour. counsel for
Charles de Lessers, summed up for his
client in the Panama trial to-day. he spoke
at great length, always earnestly and often
eloquently At the beginning Of the trial
he said the case was so strong that he was
willing to try it before a jury of the stock
holders. and to-day he again expressed the
conviction that he could secure De Lesseps'
acautta.
The courtroom was we'll filed when he
began to speak aud it became crowded
before he closed. Why had Charles de
Lesseps been selected to bear the brunt of
the charges Of bribery, he demanded, when
others known to be gully had been IN
touched? Charges fully as serious as those
against De Lesseps had been made against
dozen other men, but they were either
ignored or they were permitted to escape.
The prosecution was bound to produce in
court the testimony connected with the So
called bribe-givers and bribe-takers. This
it had utterly failed to do ClemenCeau

on the trial, but he was restrained from
doing so. The Ministers might have given
most vital information, but they saw fit to
withhold it. Why had they not produced
the copies of the menacing kilograms sent
By Herr?
The Aforementioned said. at this point,
They are at your disposal"
Judge Desjardins remarked, Let them
be produced in court Tomorrow"
Continuing. N. Barbour asked why Cor
neius Herr was permitted to flee the coun-
try? Why had he not been seated among
the prisoners, or at least named among the
accused? Merely because for ten years he
had been the broker of the Radical party.
In the Chamber of Deputies to-day Ribot,
the Premier, denounced as abuminable the
