subpenaed as a witness in the bridge scam
dial by the Grand Jury. Of course. don't

the case" he explained, "but the talk is
that he could tell how certain railroad

Mr. Ryan said that the Supervisors had
been shown the designs for several covered
bridges No particular one had been
picked out though. and no building price
had been fixed. Then they had passed
their resolution, as they had received a
letter from A. n. Towne agreeing to build
the bridge before December 81, 1885, If the
money was paid. This was done.
Further than that he knew nothing, ex-
cept that the Grand jury last year had
declared that the payment of the $4,000
was illegal. No steps were taken then to
right the matter, as the railroad company
expressed its intention to build the bridge.
The present Grand Jury is making a
more searching inquiry than its prede-
cessor. The foreman, H. NJ. La Rue, who
was recently decided to be Railroad Com
missioner, is very decided man, and he
is backed by a jury of representative busl-
ness men, who are in earnest.

stands is farce. He feels that the will of
the Assembly should be taken on the mat
ter of dropping unnecessary employees. The
report that the mbined committees drew
up, he claims, was just. His idea is to
have it put before the house and voted on
as a whole.
C. NJ. Belshaw of Contra Costa is willing
to record his convictions. He is against
the reckless and wasteful expenditure of
State funds for the fattening of the favored
few that prevails at present. He thinks
every man should be put on record and
urges that the Republican party cannot af-
ford to let the present scandal remain with
out even an attempt at publication.
Peter Bennett of Ventura thinks THE
CALL has struck the keynote that will
arouse an answering chord in the hearts of
those Republicans who are anxious for the
good of the party and honesty in admis-
tering affairs of State.
Judge Spencer also made a gallant fight
in the direction of purity, but is almost
willing to admit that he has been out

They will then undertake to put every
man on record by call of the House.
Weyse of Los Angeles is chairman of the
Committee on Attaches. He is warmly in
sympathy with the movement to reduce
the working force of the Assembly to a
business basis. He has not as yet been
able to get together quorum of his COM
mittee to consider the resolution, but it is
expected that if the members of the COM
mittee successfully avoid a meeting he
will, early next week, report the resolu-
ton back to the House with the informa-
ton that quorum of his committee could
not be secured.
Phelps of San Mateo says the fight for
retrenchment is not yet done. He was
surprised when the resolution was referred
to the Committee on Attaches, because the
understanding in the caucus was that the
ayes and noes were to be called. Thinking
that this agreement was to be kept he was
not prepared to enter any opposition.

DISCUSSED CLEVELAND,s SCHEME.


No Action Taken on the Special Bond
Message.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 9.-The House Ways
and Means Committee took up the Presi-
dents special bond message at the end of
a long session to-day. So much difference
of opinion made itself manifest immedi-
atelv that business was postponed until
o'clock Monday.
The discussion was entirely informal,
and the Republicans bore the leading part,
particularly Mr.. Reed, whose comments
were numerous. By the Democratic
friends of the party it was argued Con-
gress was confronted with the specific
question of saving for the Government
some $4,000, 900. The Republican adver-
saries contended that thirty years loan
to meet what the administration accord
ing to their construction of its utterances,
represents to be temporary necessity,
was inadvisable. They questioned the
policy of negotiating with individual finan-
ciers for bond issues, and advocated a
popular loan of short-term bonds in small
denominations, which could be taken by
the people of the country.
Mr.. Bynum's resolution contemplated
bonds payable after one year and within
ten years, but was changed to the form
given in the foregoing to apply to the
thirty years issue just negotiated. There
was an informal ballot taken on it, but
several members did not vote.

approval of the law appropriating $4,000
for furnishing new ward of the Highlands
Insane Asylum.
Senator Seymour, chairman of the Com
mittee on Retrenchment, reported back
with favorable recommendation the bill
appropriating 100000 for State public
building in San Francisco.
A large number of bills were taken up
and advanced on the calendar to second
reading.

Grand Jury, and new effort will be made
to find Gregory.
One OF the main witnesses before the
Grand jury to-day was District Attorney
Frank D. Ryan. Mr.. Ryan was the legal
adviser of the Supervisors at the time the
peculiar resolution was passed giving the
railroad company $4,000 for building q
bridge without any specific contract.
II did not advise the Supervisors their
act was Legal he said last night. Eyes, l
understand they say that l gave them I
written opinion on the matter. This is not
so. Ibid advise them that they had power
to make contract with the railroad COM
pany to build a bridge, but that isall.
rs there not an opinion in your hand
writing pasted in the minute-book?" he
was asked.
"No," was the response. "That is a
resolution by which the Supervisors appro-
priated $15, 900 to be advanced the railroad
company on condition of their building an
overhead bridge. 1t provided also that an
additional $4,000 should be paid on the
completion OF the bridge, but if the bridge
were not finished by December 81, 1895,
the $4,000 given was to be returned.
81 do not know whether that resolution
is in my handwriting or not" he added.
1T may be, but it is so long ago that the
thing occurred that have forgotten. OF
course, if l wrote the resolution must
have advised the Supervisors about the
matter.
Mr.. Ryan said he had heard talk OF
$4,000 being returned from San Francisco
by the railroad company.to be distributed
among three of the Supervisors. These
men were said to be ]. NJ. Morrison, J. w.
Todd and Thomas Jenkins. Mr.. Ryan

LET THE INTEREST GO.

Probable Action as to the Debts of the
Pacific Roads.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 9.-The House Com
mittee on Rules will positively not grant
any more time for the consideration of Pa
ciic roads debts legislation. Mr.. Outh-
waite so stated to the CALL correspondent
to-day, and this agrees with what Catching
said several days ago. The matter will,
however, probably be tackled on to the sun

This will be proposition authorizing the
Secretary to accept the amount of the prin-

ASSEMBLY BILLS AND RESOLUTIONS.
Hatfield Of Sacramento Asks for a Strong
Sunday Law.

SACRAMENTO, Feb 9.-An attempt is to be
made to have the next national Republi-
can convention in 1896 held in some State
west of the Rocky Mountains. A Joint
resolution urging that such step would
be advisable was presented by Hatfield of
Sacramento. He urged that the Governors
of the Pacific Coast States. Utah, Nevada
Arizona New Mexico and Colorado, should
each appoint a committee of three, and
that these committees should meet at an
early date at San Francisco or Sacramento,
and devise plans for bringing about the
holding of the convention at some con-
venient place which they should agree
upon.
After spirited debate, the bill regulat-
ing the hours of labor in logging-camps
and protecting the hands was passed.
Twenty-three bills were introduced to-
day. many being OF special interest to San
Francisco. One by Wilkinson of the
Tbirtv-first District gives the Supervisors
power to appoint 100 special policemen, to
be paid in the same way as the present
police force.
A Sunday-law bill, making it a misde-
meanor to work or to employ laborers to
work on the Sabbath, was introduced iy
Hatfield of Sacramento. The bill forbids
the ''hawking and sale of Sunday news
papers" and makes men who Ego a-hunt-
ing on the Christian Sabbath" guilty of a
misdemeanor. The punishment is made a
fine or imprisonment or both. 1t provides,
however, that Seventh-day Adventists,
Seyenth-day Baptists and Hebrews, who
really observe Saturday as the Sabbath
and keep it holy shall not be affected by
the act.

The robbery of S. L. Stolen, the Treasurer
of Sonoma County, was called up by Staley,
who introduced bill relieving that gen
tleman's bondsmen from responsibility Tor
the $7770 80 taken from him by force.
Barker OF Santa Barbara introduced
bill to solve the road question which was
being discussed by members from all parts
of the State. His bill provides that fifty
or more property-holders may call for an,
election to decide whether people in a GER
tain defined territory want TO form a road
district If they do five trustees are elected,
one from each of five divisions OF the dis
trict, and these men act as would the trus-
tees of a corporation. The only salaried
officer of the board is clerk, who gets 500
a year. The district may vote bonds and
make any road improvements it deems
necessary.
Another bill providing for the investlga-
ton of the various ills the State at large
seems heir to was introduced by Waymire.
These corruptions are to be Investigated by
a commission of three, one of whom is to
appointed by the Governor, one by the
President of the Senate and one by the
Speaker of the Assembly. The bill pro-
vides at length for the investigation of
election frauds, and, while it embraces an
investigation of the Police Department and
other offices of the city, it does so only in a
general way. Mr.. Waymire also intro
duced a bill providing for civil service
commission for the State.

assumed during the last few days.
The calling of the roll of the attaches is
said to be an utter farce at present. It was
designed to prevent any man not in at
tendance on the Legislature from drawing
his pay. But the roll consists of 132 names,
and the friends of absentees have kindly
answered to the names of the missing ones
when they were called by the clerk, and at
the end of the week the worthy though
not overworked attaches would turn up
and receive full weeks pay.
