THE FENDER BILL
FAILED TO PASS

CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA-
MENTO, Feb. 4.-Senator Braunharts
fender bill' came up before the Senate
this morning on its third reading and final
passage, but failed to get a constitutional
majority. Senator Braunhart changed
his vote from aye to no and gave notice
that on Monday he would move for a re-
consideration of the vote.
The measure provides that all street
cars shall be equipped with life-saving
tenders and brakes that will stop a car
abruptly in cases of emergency. 1t has
been holly contested from the time it
was first introduced, though the contest
ing element has not been in the majority.
The consideration of the bill this morning
did not bring forth much in the way of
argument but Braunhart was ready and
made hard fight to change the result.
After the first vote he called for a call of
the absentees, of which there were eight,
and finally demanded a call of the house
and the doors were closed. Only two
votes were gained by it, however, and
the bill failing to get the necessary
tWenty-one was declared lost
Its author is confident. however, that
when all of the eight absentees are again
in their seats and his bill comes up on re-
consideration it will be passed.

Beat Them ALI Out Of Their
Money.
A MilliOnaire's Subterfnge to
Save the Payment of His
Board Bill.
Possible Answer to the Anxious Query,
where Are the Lost Books OF
the E1.Secretary Of
State?"

T Is possible to show some intellect
and perhaps courage in robbing the
rich-in filching mine or looting a
i State-but to steal from a poor
man is petty larceny. and of that
do the miners Of the old Centennial
convict Dan Burns.
1t was the pettiest Of petty larceny
that they charge against the aspirant
for a seat in the Senate-the common
est trick Of the professional beat. He
took their work and defrauded them of
their pay, and in his hurry to escape
their demands he Jumped his board bill
like a penniless tramp and rode out Of
the country with sack full Of gold.
The Centennial mine was near Yam
kee Jim, one Of the old mining towns of
Placer County, and in 1883 one of the
liveliest. It was an old mine and two
companies had tried to make something
out Of 1t, but they ended in turning it
over to the Napoleon Mining Company
in 1879. The company was capitalized
for S10,000000, and Dan Burns owned
24700 of its $4,000 shares. 1t took hold
OF the mine, and under T. H. Reynolds
1t was run for three years. Then
Burns was made superintendent about
the beginning of 1883.
Burns lasted just as long as he
thought he could beat the men out Of

IMPORTANT CANAL.
Its Completion VIII Prove of Consid-
cradle benefit to the Wheat
Growers Of Our Country.

Canada has begun the construction
of canal which is likely to have an im-
portant effect on American commerce
and the interests of American wheat
growers. The canal is TO be a short
waterway from the ST. Lawrence 10 the
upper lakes avoiding lakes Erie and
Ontario. The canal already built be-
tween Montreal and Ottawa is TO be
extended along the line of the Ottawa
river to Lake Nipissing. Thence the
route will follow French river to
Georgian bay and Lake Huron.
When this canal, which is TO be twice
the depth of the Erie canal. is built.
grain laden barges and steamers will
be able to pass directly from Duluth,
Port Arthur and other points on the
upper lakes 10 tide-water. Later it is
intended TO deepen the canal so as TO
allow the passage of ocean steamers.
When this is done, steamers may be
loaded with grain at Duluth and pro-
coed to Liverpool without breaking
bulk.
From Chicago to Liverpool by the
new route will be 700 miles shorter than
by way of the Erie canal The saving in
time will be even more than this COM
parison Of distances indicates; for The
artificial waterway by the Ottawa
route will be only 30 miles as COM
pared with 500 miles by the Erie canal.
When allowance is made for the delay
in transshipment, it is probable that
grain will reach Liverpool from Chi
cago by the new route a week sooner
than by the Erie canal. The new water
way will somewhat disturb American
commerce. On the other hand, 1t will
be of-great value 10 American farmers
