In addition to his raisin speech, Bowers
made two short talks In defense of the
tariff on wool. He said that if protection
was good for wool manufacturers it was
good for wOOl-grower>. He called upon
his colleagues from California to corrobo-
rate his assertion that be. as a Republican,
was representing the Democratic farmers
and woOl-growers of California, and no
Democrat on the foor supporting the Will
son bill was doing il. He referred to the
kilograms and resolutions of all the wool
growers, irrespective of party, opposing
the bill and asking the California delega-
tion TO oppose il.
Judge Mcguire made a short speech in
support of the proposition Of his party TO
make wool free, to take effect on the passage
Of the bill. He attemrted to give a reason
for leaving the Mckinley protection for
manufacturers for this year, but thought
it was necessary to make the farmers
wool free a once. Judge Mcguire did not
make any pretense of representing any of

CALlFORNIANS HEARD,
Loud Tackles Bourke Cochran and

WASHINGTON, Jan. 16.-Three of Cal
ifornia's Congressman GRATED In the House
to-day. Representative Loud tackled
Bourke Cochran, the Irish boy, Judge
Mcguire had something to say about WOO ],
and Bowers devoted his attention 10 wool

six boxes of San Diego raisins among Con-
gressmen, who sat about munching them
with great satisfaction while Bowers
pleaded for tue maintenance OF the tariff
on the fruit.
Loud had the temerty to tackle Bourk
Cochran, the champion heavyweight of
the Democratic side. and managed to es-
cape from the ring with a whole skin.
Loud said: My friend from New
York well described the platform of his

WHAT THE LAWYERS SAY.
MIR. Hart Thinks There Is No Cause
for Action.

Tor Action.
The new turn in the Blythe controversy
announced from Sacramento yesterday
afternoon carried universal surprise
among the various attorneys for the liti-
gants. Practically the unanimous opinion
was that it would come to nothing.
Attorneys Estee and Miller were seen
in their office, but up to a late hour had
received no official notification of their ap-
pointment, and were therefore unwilling
to talk. Said Mr.. Estee, however: There
is nothing new about 1t. The same thing
was done by Attorney-General Marshall
in Governor StOneman's term and the
case carried to the Supreme Court The
only difference is that Attorney General
Bart now is disqualified by his previous
connection with the case. and the Cover
nor has therefore seen fit to appoint US.
All | can say is that if in the course of
proceedings the State should get the
S4.0OO.0OO it will all 60 to the school fund,
and all question Of short finances in that
line will be forever settled"
When asked how the former action
under Attorney General Marshall would
affect this case Mr.. Estee said that the
Supreme Court had refused the appeal of
Mr.. Marshall on the ground that it was
premature. the necessary five years not
having elapsed since Blythe's death, as
part OF title S of the Code of Civil Pro-
cedure requires.
Ex-Judge BOalt, the attorney for Flor
ence Blythe. seemed much amused when
the telegram was shown to him. He
could not see any chance at all for the
State in the litigation. 1.-The Supreme
Court" the attorney said, has decided
once and for all that Florence is the
daughter and heir of Thomas Blythe, and
that the Williams heirs are next of kin. l
do not see what possible show the State
can have with a claim that there are no
near-of-kin or heirs. The only opening at
all is in the contest of the collateral heirs, >
whose case comes up before the Supreme
Court on Monday, and who are trying to
establish that the decisions which de-
clared Florence and the Williams heirs
first and second in the order of succession
TO Blythe are errors. Even in that con-
tingency see no possibility of the State's
proving that there are no heirs or near
of-kin."
Attorney-General Hart was at first in
credulous of the dispatch. There is no
possibility of successful result what
ever" he said. "The case was settled in
the Supreme Court long ago, and the de-
cisiOn holds as good now as it did then.
The point which the Supreme Court made
was not that the claim OF the State was
premature because five years had not
elapsed since BIythe's death, but because
claimants to the property had already ap-
peared, and the State could have DO case
until the legitimacy of their claims was
established. The law in question is to the
effect that if within five years after the
death Of legator no one appears to claim
the property. said property reverts to the
State. Therefore, even should the Su-
preme Court now decide favorably to the
collateral heirs the State will not, have
any claim"

The Biennial report submitted to the Board OF
Prison Managers by Warden Wolfer covering
the two fiscal years ending July 81. 1884, SHOWS
that on that date there were SOP inmates, an In
crease of 173 over two years ago, and 81 In ex-
cess of one year ago. This large increase is at
tributed to the following three causes:
Firstly the receipt of 1OS prisoners sentenced
by the United States Courts in other states
secondly the receipt of AZ prisoners under
the reformatory plan; the last legislature passing
a law requiring all judges, under certain condi-
tions, to sentence all first offenders under this
plan
Third-The transfer of several incOrrigible
prisoners from the refOrmatery.
