POETS IN THE HOUSE.
Joaquin Miller ard Riley Enthusiast
ticaIIy Received.

A pretty little episode interrupted the
proceedings of the House yesterday after
noon while the medical bill was under con-
sideration. The figure of Joaquin Miller,
the picturesque old poet of TIE Sierras,"
appeared in the speakers pulpit and was
recognized by one or two members. Speaker
Petit raped for order and introduced him
in a few words.
Where's Riey?" asked Miller as soon
as he had addressed the House. A door
keeper fished the modest HoOsier poet out
of the crowd in the lobby and he also was
dragged up into the pulpit where his APP
pearance was the signal for applause. we
started out half an hour ago. said Mr.. Nil
Ter, Ito campaign this Capitol. but he fell
by the wayside. | want TO thank you for

there were loud calls for Riley. Mr.. Riley

THE PHILLIES GET RUSIE
THE QUAKERS- CRACK BATTERY
GIVEN TO NEW YORK IN EXCHANGE.
Hawkins. Who Did Not Know
What Rusfe Would Say.

An Associated Press dispatch from Phil
adelphia says Philadelphia and New York
have made a trade whereby Amos Rusie
goes TO the Quakers.
Senator r. o. Hawkins who has been
Rusies attorney in his efforts to make a
settlement and get released by the New
York club. was surprised last night when
told of the deal. He said he had heard
nothing of IL before and thought il was not
known TO Rusie. He was not prepared to
say. without consultation with Rusie.
what effect the trade would have on Rusie's
present suit against the New York club. in
which he demands his release. but thought
that If the trade had been made it was like
ly that Rusie would accept 1t and play ball
with the Phillies this season.
1t is barely possible that New York has
been brought TO this trade by the fear that
Rusie might win his suit in New jersey.
which would forever break up the present
practice of reserving players for his bill
of complaint charges that the agreement of
the National League is against public poll
icy and prevents free and open competition
among the clubs and players.
The dispatch mentioned above is as fol-
lows: The Philadelphia Baseball Club has
made a deal with the New York by which
SdCE IdyiOT JOnn Clements, the star
battery OF the Phillies, will be exchanged
for Amos Rusie. the Giants twirer over
whose services there has been so much liti-
CATION. The exchange is the result of con-
ferences held I'm this city last week between
Managers Rogers and Reach. of the local
Club. and President Andrew Freedman, of
New York.
Colonel Rogers announced the consumma-
ton OF this important deal tonight and
added that another trade was contemplated
which would concern one player of both
clubs.
The Clements-Taylor-R usie deal has been
hanging fire since last year. when the local
club made Freedman proposition for a
trade. AT that time the New York president
refused absolutely to be party TO the
agreement. 1t will be remembered how
ever. that he said at the time that the
philadelphia club was the only one TO which
he would let Rusie go if matters took a
turn that way. and rather than give any
other club the services OF the big fellow ne
would let 'Rusie rot The deal comes as
big surprise. as il was generally conceded
that Rusie would agree 10 play with Louis
VILE.

SCANDAL OVER GARBAGE
CHARGES OF ATTEMPTED BRIBERY
INA CONTRACT TO BE PROBED.
Councilman ShaGer Asks an Investi-
Back TO Board Of Works.

One of the surprises at the Council meet
ing last night resolution, introduced
by Councilman George w. Shaffer, calling
for an investigation Of certain innuendoes
which had appeared i'm the daily press TO the
effect that there was attempted bribery In
connection with the garbage contract This
resolution was unanimously adopted and
President Costello will appoint committee
of five to probe the matter

a councilman and intimated to him that
there was money i'm II for him. 10 see that
the Council approved the garbage contract

Co, as the contractors were going TO make
a big profit out of the contract. The coun-
Gilman says that another party heard this
conversation. This attorney has been active
in pushing the matter I'm the Council. but
the councilmen had their suspicious aroused
as TO the actual purport of the contract,
and il wiz now go back to the Board OF
Works with the request that certain things
be explained. The resolution offered last
night by Mr.. Shaffer was not discussed at
any length, the only talk being upon the adj
visibility OF having investigation by the
Council as a whole. IL was decided best.

hand and the Senate chamber was packed.
The street-railroad company had all its
friends on hand and the city administration
had appointed a committee of one hundred
citizens who were there to help the bill.
The whole morning was spent upon an
amendment offered by Senator Wood,
which seemed very fair upon its face, but
would have had the effect of making the
measure unconstitutional. Ii was argued
all morning and a roll call upon the amend
ment was taken at noon. 1t resulted in
tie vote of % to % but just as the presi-
dent of the Senate about to cast the
deciding vote Senator BoZeman appeared
