COMMITTEE REPORTS.
De Lancie's Education Committee ra-

amendment No. 2, with reeommenda-

ordered.
County and Township Government,
Valentine Chairman. reported a resolu-
ton, asking that eighty-five copies Of
the County and Township Government
Act. with Henning's annotations, be
purchased for the House.
Huber moved the adoption of the res
olution. The purchase was opposed by
several members on the ground of eS-
pense, and for the reason that. as
amendments to that Act were sure to
be made the Act as printed would be Of
little USE Mellick offered as an amend

ONE BALLOT YESTERDAY.
No Change In the Vote for United
States Senator.

When the joint session of the Legis-
lature met yesterday with the ostens-
1ble purpose of electing United States
Senator nobody cared to make q bluff
at forcing matters to a conclusion In
the early days of the trouble a great
cry went up against adjourning, until
at least four ballots had been taken;
and even. when that much had been
to decide whether or not there should
be more.
No such condition existed yesterday.
and had there been any other way out
of the difficulty it is doubtful whether
even one ballot would have been taken.
There was no change in the lining
up of the peoples representatives,
though a number of absentees and
pairs cut down the vote, and scarcely
had the result been announced when
Senator Bettman moved to adjourn un-
til Monday noon, and not one single
voice was raised in opposition.
With Bulla not voting, and with
Boggs, Dwyer and Langford Demo
crats) and Jones and Stratton Gre
publicans) absent, the Senate's strength
was severely tried, while in the Assem-
bly, Kelsey, Burns man, paired with
Clark, a Grant man, who was absent;

Pierce, a Burns man, and Rickard, one
of Burns adherents, was paired with

IN THE UPPER HOUSE.
Senators Introduce New Bills and
Glance at the File.

The Senate met at the usual time yes
terday morning, President pro tenn.
Flint in the chair.
Boyce offered a resolution, which was
referred to the Committee on Attaches,
Contingent Expenses and Mileage, pro-
viding for the purchase of ten dozen
extra globe files and one dozen perfor-
ators, for use in the Senate.
Flint, for the Committee on Att
taches, Contingent Expenses and Mile
age, reported back the resolution for
the purchase of nine copies of Hen
ning's County Government Act, for use
in the Committee on County Govern
ment; seven copies of Finlayson's IS
Street and Road Laws, and five copies
of MCGEE on Banks and Banking, also
for use of the committees, recommend
ing that it be not adopted. The report
was adopted by unanimous vote. and
the committeeman will worry along
without the books.
The resolution providing for a re-
volving fund of $15 to be used by the
Senate Postmistress for the purchase
of stamps, envelopes and wrappers,
was reported back favorably, and was
adopted.
on Attaches, Contingent Expenses and
Mileage, the. resolution providing for
the payment of bills for supplies, in
cluding lamps, repairs. ETC., aggregat-
ing $154, was adopted.
A message was received from the
Assembly announcing the adoption of
S. J. r. g. by Luchsinger, relating to
the construction of navy yards and
shipbuilding. On motion of the author
of the resolution, the Secretary was
instructed to notify by telegram Sen
ator George C. Perkins and Congress
man Hilborn of the joint action of the
Legislature.
CANAL RESOLUTION AMENDED.
S. j. r. 10, by Currier. relative to the
construction and ownership of the Mic
araguan Canal, being a special order,
was taken up, and the author moved
its adoption.
Braunhart moved to amend the
clause providing for absolute owner
ship by the United States, by striking
out the words ''if possible
Braunhart, Simpson and Davis IA
vored the resolution; Smith, Short
ridge and Bulla opposed it, and it was
adopted by a vote of IL to 16, and as
so amended was ordered printed.
FOREST RESERVES.
S. J. r. 8. by Davis. to abrogate
those portions of the Stanislaus Forest
Reserve in Alpine and Tulare Counties,
or, in lieu thereof, to grant permission
to pasture sheep in said portions there
of, for the year 1890, was taken up,
ard Davis moved its adoption. He ex-
planned that the resolution was the re-
suit of a petition by the Board of Su-
pervisors of Alpine County, strength
ened by the concurrence of the Senator
from Tulare County.
On motion of Bulla, the resolution
was re-referred to the Committee on
Federal Relations, to retain its place
on file. the committee being instructed
to give notice when it would be con-
sidered

as for any understanding among the
Grant men that none of them should

ANOTHER BOMB.
Works of San Diego here arose and
flung a bomb into the arena which went
off, apparently, with more force than he
expected He offered a resolution in
structing the Special Committee on In
vestigation to report to the House on
Monday, January 23d (to-morrow). In
support of his motion to adopt the res
olution Works claimed that it was the
general opinion that the work of the
committee was not being satisfactorily
performed, that, according to the views
he had heard expressed, its work was
satisfactory neither to the public nor to
the members of the House. He thought,
therefore, that they should be required
to give an account to the Assembly OF
what they had done thus far.
Valentine hoped the resolution would
not be adopted. He believed it was un-
just and unfair, unnecessary and pre-
mature to recall the committee at this
juncture. They had had neither time
nor opportunity to present anything like
a finished report.
Belshaw asked Works rather tartly
what he meant, anyhow? Who was
it that he meant when he said there
was general dissatisfaction?
Works replied that his resolution was
based on what he had heard from many
members and from many people outside
the Assembly.
Belshaw was very hot. He said he
did not believe there was general dis
satisfaction, he believed it would be
exceedingly unfair to call on the COM
mittee for q report at this time. He

announced that Mr.. Grant had ex-
pressed .a<willingness to appear at any
ume. Burnett's request embodied the
information that he expected to prove
that an attempt had been made to in
nuence the vote of an Assemblyman
by the issuance of railroad passes. Mel
lick also made request for subpoena

requests were granted.

had tried his best, he said, to get a
Grant man and a Burns man on the
committee, and so had other Bulla men,
but not one would consent, and now
the Grant men were finding fault with
the committees work. He hoped the
motion to adopt would not prevail.
Clough opposed the. resolution. Let
US show our confidence in the commit
tee," he said, "and stand by them Any
man appointed by the Speaker to a
committee Mght to act; especially on
a committee Of Investigation. No man
ought to be in such position that he
cannot serve"
Radcliff as a Grant man, opposed the
resolution. He believed the committee
was doing all in its power, and he wish
ed to see them keep on as rapidly as
possible with their work in order that
the whole matter might be settled
Works defended his resolution. He
claimed that the very fact that the
House was attempting. to add two men,
bers to the committee was proof of
its dissatisfaction with existing condi-
tions.
Clough moved to lay the motion to
adopt on the table There was swift
second, but Works was swifter and
withdrew his resolution before the mo-
tion could be put.
TRIES 1T AGAIN.
Valentine was next with a motion
that Cobb (Burns) and Radcliff (Gran)
should be added to the Investigation
Committee
.Radcliff arose and with considerable
emphasis declared that after his clear
ly expressed opinion as to the impro-
priety of adding new members who had
not heard the bulk of evidence before
the committee, and after he had clinch-
ed it with his vote, he certainly would
not serve as a member of it. you may
drive a horse to water" quoted Rad
cliff, "but you can't make him drink"
johnson, with the exasperating man
ner of which he is master, remarked
that while Radcliff had disavowed any
agreement among the Grant men, he
was very prompt to decline to serve
himself.
Radcliff was on his feet in a second; (;
Johnson asked himi if he had not claim
ed there was no such agreement.
Il did," retorted Radcliff, 'and I re-
peat it, and my word is as good as
yours, Mr.. Johnson"
johnson declared that ''his young
friend was too hot, and that he must
withdraw the insinuatiOn.
This Radcliff promptly did, as was
becoming, the Speaker hammered with
the gavel and peace was patched up.
Cobb declined to serve also. Valentine s
motion was tabled. and the Committee
on Investigation remains as it was
"befo' de wah."
SOME FILE WORK.
In the interstices between skirmishes
some little work was done on the sec
Lond reading file, and a good many bills
were introduced. The two Nicaragua
Joint resolutions, Mellick's and Cami-
netti's, were patched together into one
and sent to the printer.
Atherton's 125 and 126, concerning
deception in sale of renovated butter
and deception in sale of short weight
butter, were read the second time and
went to the third reading file.
E. D. SulIivan's A. J. r. ., relating
| to the establishment of a national leper
colony and hospital on Molokai, was
adopted.
