VERY NEAR IT.
WOMAN SUFFRAGE DEFEATED IN
CALIFORNIA.
The LOng-LOolSed For Privilege Was
in Sight When Opponents of the
Bill Rally and Defeat 1t.

Sacramento. Cal, March 15.-There
was some clever lobbying done in the
state senate. The women of California
all but acquired the right CT suffrage
today A fortnight ago, the assembly
passed a bill comforting upon all
women citizens the privilege of voting.
This bill was defeated in the senate
by the insertion of an amendment
which practi ally killed it, but tice
of reconsideration was given. This
afternoon, during the abs nee of sew
eral senators opposed to woman sJf-
frage, the women had their bin called
up and reconsidered. BY vote of 10
to IA the senate receded from its
amendment The women were ] BIZ
liant, for they claimed that Governor
Budd had promised to app owe the
measure. The women were doomed to
disappointment, however, for later in
the day the opponents OF the bill raj
lied their forces and forced a reconsid-
Grafton of the previous vote BY a, vote.
Of 20 to 10 the senate then refused to
recede from its amendment. This kills
the bill for all time. The women suf-
fragists, though, have not labored in

NIuragun Sarcastic.

Washington. D. c., March 15.-Senor
Muragua, the Spanish minister. had
not been informed up to IL o'clock to-
day, either by his government or by
the state department, of the United
States demand upon Spain through
our minister at Madrid. His reports
from the governor-general of Cuba,
state that there is no information of a
Spanish gunboat although the officials
along the eastern coast of Cuba,
where the supposed outrage occurred,
have been on the lookout.
For my part" said the minister,
this looks very much like a sea
serpent affair. Every now and then
captain states that he has seen a
sea serpent and came near being swaI-
lowed. Captain Crossman is no doubt
a worthy officer, but it looks very
much as though he had dreamt that
he had seen Spanish gunboat The
proper course would be to exact af-
fidavits from the crew and passengers
of the Alliancia and find out if they
agreed with the statement of Captain
Crossman."

CHINESE LOAN.
Financial Circles Are Much Inter~
ested in 1t.

New York, March 15.-A Special to the
World from London, says:
London financial circles are much in
terested in the question of the floating Of
the Chinese loan if the negotiations for
peace depend upon China paying a heavy
indemnity to Japan. The last Chinese
loan was almost an absolute failure on
the London and continental markets. al
though it was guaranteed by the customs
duties at the treaty ports. The repre-
sentatives of the Rothschilds and other
large firms here said tonight that no
proposition had been received yet from
China for an indemnity loan. If it Is
very large there certainly would be the
greatest difficulty in negotiating it. There
would be less difficulty if Japan should
occupy Picking and administer the affairs
of the celestial empire.

AN ENORMOUS LOBSTER.
Its Giant Claws Preserved For Over 40
Years-Was Caught On a Line and Boiled
in a Wash BoiIer-How a Salmon Was
Caught in An Extraordinary Way

Over 40 years ago, Elias Totman of
Small Point, when his hook caught in
something heavy and he began to pull
up a dead weight, that might have
been a small anchor. Imagine his aston
ishment when a huge lobster came over
the side-a lobster so big that it weighed
So pounds and its claws were 10 inches
long and nine inches broad. The lob
ster was boiled in wash boiler because
the family kettle was not large enough.
About six years ago Mr.. A. Y. johnson
OF this city came into possession of one
OF those great claws that had been kept
in the Totman family all those years.
The other day he gave the claw to Mr..
Henry Sargent, the fish dealer, who will
exhibit it today in his new market, the
Congress fish market, opposite the head
of Green street. This market was opened
Wednesday night and presented a splen-
did display of all kinds of fish obtainable
at this season Yesterday Mr. Sargent re-
ceived from Gerard Knives small fishing
boat, along with fare of haddock, etc,
a fine 81 pound salmon. This fish was
caught by Knive in a trawl off Pema-
guild, in $50 feet of water 1t is very
seldom that salmon is ever found
in such deep water, or caught in a
trawl.
The big game fish had almost torn the
hook through its tender mouth. 1t was
just hanging by the edge of the lip when
pulled over the side and Immediately
fell off the hook into the boat.
