spectator at last nights session.
The members made their chair beds
up early last night and by 9:3O most oil
them had made ready for the night.

tirely too strong a minority this trip, as
time will show
Representative Blair is a corker. He
never closed his eyes in sleep Friday
night, yesterday nor last night, and yet
he showed no signs of WEAKNESS.
The members may enjoy this lookup
but as The Statesman's legislative re-
porter has been dancing attendance upon
them for over 40 hours without sleep, he
begs to take issue with them as to the
enjoyment of the lookup. While the
members sleep, the newspaper reporters
lmust keep awake, which makes the lock-
up very firing.
The members of the house do not seem
to consider call of the house in the
serious manner that they should, mas
much as they are constantly taking 0
sneak.
After quietly sleeping most all day
Mr.. Evans of Hunt secured the floor last
night about 10 o'clock and made speech
Mr.. Dashiell in his fight on the fee bill

lpecially hard pushed.

LONDON FINANCES

London, April 21.-The stock market
opened briskly after the Easter HOLIDAYS.
but the conclusion Of peace between China
and Japan did little to sustain the market.
tears as to European complications aris-
ing from the Japanese demands and, the
prospects of Japan proving a successful
competitor of Europe for the trade of
China, caused a feeling of uncertainty.
On the whole, however,, the tendency was
rather upward. The cheapness Of money
Induced renewed buying of gilt-edged
securities. Shares of the Hong Kong and
Shanghai bank advanced 5per cent on the
prospective development of trade with
China. Argentine and Gillian securities
recovered on the vanishing war scare.
Spanish and Turkish securities were fat.
Otherwise the foreign market was in
active. The mining share market was in
active but irregular. There was much
taking of profits American railroad Sc
curities attracted plenty of attention,
although the buying was much less here
than in New York,
President Clevelands letter encouraged
the buying of good bonds.
The advances were: Lake Shore 4,

THE SENATE.

The senate adopted a resolution to dis
pense with the enrolment of bills to

civil code bill was withdrawn.
The senate considered its bill pending

DURANTS PRELIMINARY.
The Frisco Murder Suspect Looks Pale
and Concerned.

and Concerned.
San Francisco, April 22.-For hours
before the preliminary examination OF
Theodore Durant commenced today a
crowd began gathering and q squad OF
police were stationed in different parts OF
the room on the lookout for cranks who
have written threatening letters to Judge
Conlin.
Before the court opened 5000 people
surrounded the hall and filled the APP
proaches. When the defendant arrived
in court all eyes were turned upon him
and he was sketched from all points OF
view by the newspaper artists. The
prisoner looked pale and concerned but
showed no emotion. A photographer ex-
hibited several photos of the scene of the
murders and attracted much attention.
They presented a revolving sight.
Mrs. Morgan, with whom Miss Will
liams lived in Alameda, last saw Miss
Williams on the morning of the 18th
inst. and deceased had told her she was
going to Mrs. Voy's house.
Here the name of A. Il. Williams, the
father of the dead girl, was called, but
in his place young woman rushed to the
stand and said that no one should testify
before her She gave the name of VIII
! hanson and said she would be the one to
Judge Durant and ordered him released
The police tried to remove her, but she
would not let them touch her, but left the
stand voluntarily after some words. She
handed a letter to the clerk. She said she
was sent by God to judge Durant. The
woman was subsequently identified as
Laura Lucy Gould Williamson, of III
Leavenworth street. She declared her
self to be an "emissary of God" She DIS
appeared after being removed from the
court room.
A. f. Williams then took the stand and
identified the pOcketbOOk found in Du
rants overcoat as one he had given his
(! daughter.
| Sergeant Burke testified to the finding
of the pocketbOOk. He said there was Q
| bunch of II keys in the same pocket anl
a single key of the Yale pattern. The Of
| ficer stated that one key that was in the
! bunch when he found the ring IN the over
ccat pocket was missing.

THE HOUSE is STILL IN THE
THROES OF A DEAD LOCK.
AND FROM PRESENT INDICATIONS
THERE WILL BE NO END.
Both Factions Are Very Determined and
They Are Very Liable to Fight
Till the Last Armed Foe
Shall Expire.
STILL IN A DEAD LOCK.

The house gained no ground on its fee
bill yesterday. Along in the afternoon
both factions held caucuses, but neither
separately nor jointly could they solve the
problem to their mutual satisfaction, and
so when the shades of night came on the
house had not gained one foot from the
status of affairs that was in existence at
the same time Friday night. While the
house did nothing on its fee bill it got
away with quite batch of other senate
and house bills, and judged from this
standpoint the tie-up is certainly something
to be commended. From present indica'
lions the house will not get through their
fee bill today nor tomorrow, and in view OF
that fact this tie-up session is very likely
to prove one of great length and will try
the patience of the members severely.

NIGHT SESSION.

Under a suspension of the rules the bill
passed. On a motion the house was then
placed to rest for one hour; at $50 O'Clock
they were raped to order and immediate
ly motion was made to excuse the alb

mand for the ayes and noes. The mo
lion was lost BY vote of 81 ayes, ~
