NO SUCCESSOR TO WHITE.
California Legislature Adtourns
without Electing a Senator.

SACRAMENTO Cal. March 19.-At H:l5
q. m. to-day the Legislature of California
adjourned sine die without a United States
senator to succeed Stephen NJ. White hav-
ing been elected. When the hour for ad-
iournment was extended from midnight un-
til AS this morning at last nights session
IL was expressly understood that the sena-
torial matter was settled and that the ques-
ton of the election of a senator was not TO
be broached to-day. Nevertheless, just be-
fore IL o'clock Governor Gage sent a mes
sage to both houses, in which he charged
the LEGISLATURE with having left its duty
unperformed. In the message he impiored
the members to no longer delay, but to pro-
ceed to the election of a senator at once.
The message was received with cheers In
the assembly, but Republicans as well as
Democrats stated that it came too late. In
the Senate it was received and read amid
the greatest confusion. Senator Boyce, a
Grant Republican, took the floor and in
an excited address moved to lay the mes
sage upon the table. His voice was drowned
In the uproar When order was restored
Boyce renewed his motion, another motion
was made to have the message printed in
the journal which prevailed. AT AS a. m,
fifteen minutes before the hour that an
other ballot for senator would have had
to be taken, Lieutenant Governor Neff's
gavel fell and the Legislature was declared
adjourned after one of the longest and most
excited sessions in the history of the State
of California

ATTACKED BY MEXICANS.
Officers Unable to Remove All Small
pOx Patients to PesthOuse.

LAREDO, Tex, March 19.-The work Of
removing smallpox patients to the pest
house under direction Of State Health Of
ficer Blunt was begun this morning. After
ten had been removed the officers encoun-
tered on East Matamoras street mob Of
them in such a manner that the chief OF
police was telephoned for. Marshal Joe
Barthelow and Assistant Marshal Nye Idar
hurried to the scene and when they at
tempted to arrest the leaders of the dis
turbers they were assaulted with stones and
fired on. Idar was knocked down and Sc
verely beaten about the head before he
could be rescued. One of the rioters was
shot, but, aided by his friends, managed to
escape. About twenty shots were fired, a
dozen arrests made and the mob dispersed.
The health officers resumed their work, but
were soon met by another mob Of 500 or GOO
Mexicans many Of them armed. AS they
could not contend with this force, the health
officers desisted and DR.. Blunt opened tele-
graphic communication with Governor Say
ers. AS a result he was instructed to call
on the United States military authorities
at Fort Mcintosh in the name of the Gov
ernor for such assistance as was needed
and later he was informed that the War
Department had telegraphed authority to
use troops. The Mexicans are much excited
and express contempt for the negro United
States soldiers.

While man was trying to draw the load

others and blowing up the house.
There have been several cases of brigand-
age during the last few days in the neigh
borhood of San Luis and thus far none Of
the bandits has been captured, though many
of them are known to have been working
on the roads last month. AS the March
estimates have not yet been approved from
Havana, there has been a reduction In the
number employed in that way and those
discharged steal rather than starye. Only
$4,000 is allowed for neighborhood de-
manding 100000 and until his estimate is
approved Major General Wood will be un-
able to carry out the projected improve
ments, as there is virtually only next month
left before the setting in of the rainy sea-
son. The Cuban officials complain bitterly
of the delay in the approving of the esti-
mates for March, pointing out that poor
men, with no work, are compelled to be-
come bandits, thus placing the province in
a false light. The customs receipts for
Santiago will probably be $4,000 this
month

1.-The meat was supplied in the morning
and it smeled bad and had a bad appear

it, said: That is preservaline. That is the

He came up from Tampa

that in my opinion ii was"

II called the attention Of my commissary

BY Gen. George w. Davis: did all the
meat you got at Lakeland appear to have
this glossy surface like paraffine?"
Yes, SIR
did you say that 1t looked like paraffine

.All the car meat we received had that
appearance"
How about the beef you received late
in Cuba?"
ssThe m a iorify of the meaI we received in
Cuba spoiled on us; il was the fault of the
climate, as l thought at the time

II think he was probably a Chicago man"
What was his appearance?'
"He was a short, heavy-set man. In fact,
Armour had two agents there-one a young
man of twenty-five, the other decidedly
Jewish in appearance. The one l refer to
