ents of the Twentieth Senatorial District.
Senator Mathews made the speech which
ccompanied the present.
To Senator Earl was presented huge
bouquet of California poppies, the gift of
the ladies of Sacramento in behalf of his
efforts to make the eschscholtzia the State
flower.
In the Assembly it was $3.50 when the
Speakers gavel descended. BY that time
every chair in the house was filled. Hardly
desk lacked feminine visitor, while the
galleries and lobby were gay with bright
costumes.
AS soon as order was obtained Speaker
Morosco inviting the members of the As
sembly to be present on Monday night at
the first presentation of Assemblyman
BRUSHES melodrama at the Grand Opera
house. The invitation was accepted by a
unanimous vote.
Then a series of resolutions were pre-
sented as the House waited for messages
from the Governor and the Senate. Some
of these were in earnest, but more were
humorous. The first was presented by
Bettman, thanking Speaker John c.
Lynch for his uniform courtesy to all
members and the fair and impartial man
ner in which he had presided over the de-
iberations of the Assembly.
Among the many resolutions that fol-
lowed was one from Belshaw of Contra
Costa to make Reid of Trinity chief ento-
mologist of the State, at salary of $20,O 900

ACCIDENTS AT sACRAMENTO.
Several Persons Injured as the Result of
a Series of RunatcGys.

several Persons Injured as the Result of
Series Of RunatcGys.
SACRAMENTO, March 16.-There was
series of runaways on K street in this
city to-day, which resulted in three ladies
and Chinaman being thrown from their
vehicles and injured. Several horses were
hurt and large number of rigs of various
descriptions were entirely demolished.
The first runaway occurred at $3.50
O'Clock this afternoon, when the horses at
tached to a Chinese vegetable wagon took
fright and after running two blocks dashed
into cab belonging to local liveryman.
The Chinese driver was thrown to the side
walk by the force of the collision and was
seriously injured.
When picked up he was unconscious and
covered with blood. The animals attached
to the cab, after wrecking the vehicle by
colliding with a telegraph pole, ran to the
outskirts of the city before they were cap
tured. Their rapid flight caused other
stampedes, and for blocks remnants of
wagons could be seen at all corners.
About an hour later buggy animal,
driven by Mrs. Ammon of Clarksburg, be-
came unmanageable and ran into deliv-
ery-wagon. The lady was thrown to the
sidewalk and was badly bruised.
The animal attached to the delivery
wagon dashed across the street, ran into
buggy in which were seated two ladies',
and the buggy was upset and the occupants
were thrown into the street, one of them,
Mrs. George Gibbs, being severely cut on
the head and arms, while her companion,
Mrs. Stapleton, was severely bruised about
the head and body.

LEADS A TREASURY GRAB
A Speech by Ventura's Silent
Member That Nets the
State S24O.
CALLS THE SCHEME A STEAL,
A Surprising Incident During the
Closing Hours of the AS
Sembly.

SACRAMENTO, March 16.-Two As
semblymen, Belshaw of Contra Costa and
Ewing, the Populist member from San
Francisco, who have during the entire ses-
sion been severe on the treasury raiders.
We're connected with the last attempt
to grab unearned dollars from the
treasury. 1t occurred this afternoon, and
would have succeeded but for the watchful-
ness of Peter Bennett of Ventura, who
made his first speech and saved the State
$40. Some days ago Ewing introduced
the following resolution;
ResOLved, That the sum of S24O is hereby or
dered TO be paid out of the contingent fund of
the Assembly to J. c. Bunner, as compensation
for services rendered as expert for the Commit
tee on Homestead and Land Monopolies the
same being for thirty days services at the rate
OF SO per day, and the Controller is hereby or
dered to draw his warrant therefor, and the
Treasurer is directed TO pay the same

and Means, and this afternoon just before
recess Brusie returned it to the desk with
the recommendation that it be adopted A
number of members objected to the reso-
luton, as they did not know who Bun
ner was nor why he should receive $40
Powers of San Francisco said he was
unacquainted with the motive of the reso-
luton, and wanted to know what it was.
The chair questioned Belshaw, who
stated that the bill was all right
The House was about to vote on the
proposition when Uncle" Peter Bennett,
the chairman of the Committee Oh Home
steads and Land Monopolies, demanded
the Speakers attention. Every one turned
in surprise. Bennett had not spoken be-
fore and the members were electrified to
find the splendid presence he displayed.
This whole thing is a steal,' he said.
This man was hired for seven days. At
the end of that time he was told that his
services were no longer needed and the
sergeant-at-arms was instructed to strike
his name from the payroll. He received
pay for his seven days work and has done

Los ANGELES SENSATION,
ATTEMPT TO INTIMIDATE WIT
NESSES IN A CHINESE MUIR
DER CASE.
A BARKEEPER ALLEGES THAT A
DETECTIVE IS THE PRIME MOVER
IN THE MATTER.

LOS ANGELES, March 16-A sensation
developed to-day in the matter of Chinese
troubles when E. H. Koch, witness who
appeared and testified at the examination
of Wong Chez, Wong Chuy and Wong
Wing on charge of numbering Lou Suey,
went to the Courthouse and made state
ment to Deputy District Attorney James.
Koch was employed in saloon in China
town, and was near the scene of the tragedy
when the shooting occurred He saws
that before the examination came up his
employer told him that he had better not
testify against the men accused of murder,
and that he was afterward advised by other
parties TO keep his mouth closed. After
the examination, during which he did
testify, regardless of caution, he was called
up and discharged from his position.
Koch duplicates ex-Detective Bosqui in
the matter, and claims the belief that the
ex-officer, who sided with the Wong Chez
faction, was the cause of the intimidations
being used and is the person engaged in
the attempt TO have the evidence sup
pressed.
This Chinese case has excited heathcns
all over the State, and several San Fran
cisco highbinders are here looking after
the defense of Chez and the two other de-
PENDANTS.

DRAFT CF CONSTITUTION
A Central Agency Is to Have
the Control of the District
Sub-AgenCieS.
SEVEN MEMBERS AS MANAGERS
The Executive Committee VIII Have
Absolute Power to Contract
All Sales.

FRESNO, March 16.-ThomaS z. Hughes
presided at the meeting of raisin-growers
which was held in Kutner Hall to-day.
The gathering was the largest held this
season, raisin-growers from all parts of the
county being present.
T. c. White presented the report of the
committee appointed to draw up a consti-
tuition. 1t entered fully into the details of
organization and met with very general
approval. The Central Association is to
have president, secretary and treasurer
and an executive committee of seven. to
be chosen at the annual meeting of the
stockholders. The officers are to be under
heavy bonds.
a constitution to be adopted by each of
the various district organizations or sub
companies was included in the report of
the committee. Its provisions are merely
suggestions, as it is one of the strong points
OF the new CONT bine that each little district
Is to be as nearly as possible self-governing.
When grower delivers his goods to the
packing house OF his district he is to re-
ceiYe 80 per cent of their value If the
board OF directors of the sub-company see
fit they may advance the grower money
with which TO pick and cure his grapes.
taking crop mortgage as security. The
money so advanced is TO be deducted from
the first payment to the grower.
During the packing season the seven
directors of the central association will
hold frequent meetings to manage the
matter of sales, consignments, receipts,
ETC. They are to have absolute power to
contract for all sales, and, being a small
body, can act quickly in case of need. All
raisins cured by any member of sub
company is to be sold through the central
agency, and thus all competition between
the growers will be stopped.
1t is expected that this plan will also do
away with the dryingof grapes before they
are ripe in order that they may be first in
the market
d. I. Fowler, T. c. White and William
Harvey We're appointed a committee TO
draw up an address to the raisin-growers
of the valley.
One OF the chief obstacles in the wav of
cooperation al ent is the fear among
the IalsIn men UnaU money cannot be bor-
Towed for the building of packing
houses and curing and packing OF
the crop. Every local bank, however
has given assurance that money necessary
for the work viii be furnished to any re-
sponslbIe association, and the promise will
be given prominence in the address to the
growers. The banks are taking deep in

Their securities depends largely upon the

committee.
For half an hour Senator Simpson vainly
sought to gain recognition of the chair, as
resolution after resolution was sent up to
the secretary's desk. Finally, when this
recognition was accorded Senator Simp-
son tersely announced: Report of the
Investigation Committee.
Dunn leaned forward in his desk and
eagerly followed the reading of the secre-
tary. Senator Biggy sat quietly in his
chair, closely watching the secretary as he
read. The report began with preliminary
statement of the facts which led to the in
vestigation. A resume of the testimony
followed. AS predicted in the CALL the
report of the committee was Scotch one
mot proven"
Senator Androus moved that the report
be adopted and the committee discharged.
Senator Biggy seconded the motion.
Senator Dunn took the floor and declared
that the charges made by Senator Biggy
were utterly false. Senator Orr, who was
in the chair, ruled him out of order.
Senator Wilmington raised the point of
order that Senator Dunn was in order.
Dunn was allowed to proceed. He denied
Biggy's charge. He had served with Sena-
tors Martin and Mathews before he knew
Senator Biggy. He referred to his record
as legislator and declared that he was
willing to go before Grand Jury of Sacra-
mento County or before committee ap-
pointed by the Legislature, with full pow
ers to investigate. He concluded by ask
ing the Senate to appoint such COM
mittee.
II did not intend to discuss this matter
on the floor of the Senate declared Sena-
tor Biggy, "but the discredit thrown on
my accusation makes it necessary for me
to reply. l took solemn oath to the God
who gave me existence to tell the truth to
that committee. | took my nomination
of Senator unwillingly. 1t was no one but
Dunn
At this point Biggy was called to order.
He replied that he should be accorded the
privilege which had been accorded Dunn
of speaking.
Before | would falsely accuse a brother
Senator of crime like that" continued
Senator Biggy, II would ask God to strike
me dead. | will stand by the accusation
if it is the last breath of my life. do not
wish TO explode a bombshell on the floor of
this Senate, but it is my duty"
Biggy was again called 10 order, but on
motion of Seawell was allowed to proceed.
He related substantially the charges which
he had made in the open Senate and before
the committee. Dunn had told him there
was $4,000 for standing in with ''the COM
bine." He had mentioned this to Senators
Gesford and Burke, to Judge Slack and to
John P. Dunn and others. He was willing
to go before any investigating body or a
grand jury to substantiate his accusation.

that one of the Senators involved in this affair
has sworn falsely and should be held up to the
world in his true light and be punished for his
misconduct.
On the other hand it is equally plain that
one OF them has spoken the truth and it is but
meager justice to him that he be able to sub
stantiate his words more fully than has been
possible in the limited time at the disposal
OF this committee.
From both considerations therefore your
committee recommends:
First that the whole matter be referred to
the Grand Jury of Sacramento County, now in
session.
Or second, that this committee be continued
IN existence, with power to sit during recess
OF the Legislature, and to report the results of

the innocent party, to the people of the State
and to the good name of this honorable body.
we herewith transmit transcript of all the
evidence taken in said investigation, all of
which is respectfully submitted.
