his speech in favor of the Brawley bill.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Izlars speech
NJ. Enloe CTenn) explained that he had
offered yesterday the motion TO go into
committee of the whole TO consider the
Brawley bill. not because he was antay-
Cnstic to that bill, but because he be
Eeved there were some bills on the private
calendar Wnlch snoGld be passed.
Mr.. Hall of Minnesota said he could not
account for the presence Of the wild cat
bank plank in the Chicago platform unless
it was in the heat and excitement of the
last democratic national convention some
one had surreptitiously inserted this repeal
clause into the platform. While political
platforms were intended to be stood upon
they were necessarily elastic like that ideal
platform recently adopted in a southern
state on which every man who was a demo-
n l,
democrat, and every man who said he was
a democrat could stand with both feet.
Mr.. Warner of New York followed Mr.

SUIT FOR DAMAGES.
The Case of n. A. Perry VS.. Drs. Sni-

The Case of n. A. Perry VS.. Drs. Sni-
der and Huntington on Trial.
The case of n. A. Perry VS.. Drs. T. A.
damages was commenced yesterday in

composed of Henry Meyer. John Haub.
G. NJ. Schumacher, J. c. Baumgartel, L.
P. White. James Perry, Daniel Foley.
Luther Wait, II. Boss, Arthur Webb,
George Wilson and w. j. Ross.
Perry asks for the amount of damages
named on the allegation that his little
boy was permanently crippled by the de-
PENDANTS through their lack OF skill in
the attempt to extract q needle from his
knee.
....The elder Perry was on the stand dur
ing the days session giving his version
OF the affair. He says that couple OF
years ago the boy while at play accident
ally drove the needle into his knee. He
called DR.. Snider to remove it, but it
could not be located, and then DR.. Hunt
ington was called in. Several lncislons
were made, but the needle could not be
found. The surgeons believed it had
gone into the joint.
He discharged the two surgeons named
and employed others. both here and in
Oakland, but subsequently the wound
festered and Mrs. Perry herself got the
needle out. During the past year the
boys leg was twice broken by a China
man employed on the plaintiffs ranch,
and the injured knee treated with herb
application, and the wound has healed.
Perry blames the defendants for not
finding the needle and for probing for it
III the wrong spot. The doctors side OF
the story is yet TO be told.
Grove l.. and II. w. Johnson are attor-
neys for the plaintiff, and Armstrong *
Bruner for the defendants.

PUBLICATION OF ORDINANCES.
The following letter was read from the
Mayor in reference to the publication OF
ordinances:
SACRAMENTO, April 8. 1894.
To the Board of Trustees: l desire TO
recommend to your board that in the
future all ordinances after being passed
and approved be published in one OF the
daily papers, for such time as may be
deemed best. Several ordinances have
been passed by your board in the last
three months by which the commission
of certain otfenses described therein are
punishable as misdemeanor. II is ad-
visable that such ordinances should be
given publicity, so that The public may
know of them and not in ignorance of
the law unintentionally violate them.
The daily papers, in reporting your pro-
ceedings, do not publish the proposed
ordinances in full, and there is no way at
present for the public to know of the
ordinances that have been passed.
am aware that the charter does not re-
quire ordinances 10 be published, but al
the same time it is a good idea to publish
them, so that the general public may
have knowledge of them.
Whenever franchises are granted by
ordinance, the same should be published
at the expense of the party obtaining the
franchise. The city would then have to
bear the expense of publishing only or
dinances of a public nature.
/ desire also to recommend to your
board the adoption OF q rule providing

said about any irregularity. Three weeks
ago last Saturday President Colt went TO
Cincinnati and while there saw President
Johnson, who informed him that every one
of the Indianapolis contracts were irregu-
lar and must be made TO comply with the
five months rule or a penalty of $1,000
would be imposed He further said to Mr.
Colt that he must make the best arrange
ment he could with the players. who could
play only a five months contract dating
from April %. Since that time the manage
ment has been trying TO fix things UP with
out success, until yesterday, when matters
were arranged satisfactorily. The PLAYERS
are feeling all right and now understand
where the blame rests for the little hitch
that came near resulting so unfortunately
for both them and the management, as well
as the Indianapolis public and the West
ern League. y man named Long, who is
at the head of the Toledo club, is mixed
up in some way with this trouble. He
seems TO be President JOhnson's adviser or
to have the latters official ear 10 the ex-
tent of interfering with the Indianapolis
clubs PLAYERS and business. Long should
be sat upon very hard. Possibly, the In
dianapolis club can do the sitting when
