Charge That U. s. Grant Jr. Used
Money I'm Senatorial Fight Denied

Charge That u. s. Grant ,Fr. Usad
Money i'm Senatorial Fight Denied
SACRAlM ENTO, Cal, Jan. 16.-Tbe
contest for United States senatorship
is growing sensational. D. M. Burns
and U. S. Grant Jr, the leading cam
dldates. are holding their votes, but no
gains are being made. The statement
published in San Francisco that How
ard Wright, speaker of the assembly
mad been offered money by u. 8. Grant
mas caused considerable excitement
wright alleges that he borrowed $3.50
from Mr. Green, who acts as Grants
political manager. but says he is in
no way bound to Grant. and will paw
the money back. Wright says the
money was borrowed last August, be-
fore the campaign commenced. and
that he never promised to vote for
Grant. and did not intend to do so.
On the first ballot Tor United States
senator Wright voted for Bulla. but
later changed to Burns, and on the
subsequent ballots has voted for him.
Green says that the money was lent
to Wright who is an old friend, and
that there was no understanding that
he was to vote for Grant. Speaker
Wright has threatened to bar repre-
sentat1ves of newspapers who have at
tackled him from the house. Exciting
times in the assembly are likely to oc-
cur There may also be an investiga-
ton by the assembly as to the nature
OF Wright's transactions with Green.

In fact 1t is pretty we'll assured that

Under the present circumstances the

this may be done.

PIERRE. S. d, Jan. 16-(Special)-
In the senate today joint resolution
Was introduced censuring the railroad
