YOU'RE NO GENTLEMAN"
Warm Words Banded Between an
Acting Police Judge and
an Attorney

The air in acting Police Judge Barry's
courtroom was full of sulphur for a few
minutes yesterday morning while the case

was being heard. Crosby is stall" for
Iemale pickpockets, and had haunted the
Judges courtroom, intimidating a young
girl charged with grand larceny till the
Judge ordered him into custody on a
charge of vagrancy
Attorney Pistolesi appeared for Crosby
and soon he and the Judge began to ex-
change uncomplimentary remarks. The
Judge threatened to put Pistolesi in jaiI.
and the attorney retorted that he could
put the Judge in jail. Then each said the
other was mo gentleman" and from the
loud tones Of their voices people in the
corridor thought q fight was on. The
Judge convicted Crosby and ordered him
to appear for sentence to-day, which led

SOME CREDITORS TO SUFFER
AUDITOR AND FINANCE COM
MITTEE DON'T AGREE.

The Finance Committee Of the Supervts-
ors made determined effort yesterday to
disentangle the knot into which the funds
of the Street Department have been tied.
After a discussion that extended over
several hours the committee decided upon
the following action: The members will
approve Janury bills amounting to $14,-
600. and February bills to the amount of
$1,000 As against this $37 600 there are
bills outstanding to the amount Of Sd, 600.
This leaves $4,000 of February bills I'M
paid.
Although the Supervisors have deter
mined upon this action, they still have
Auditor Asa R. Wells to deal with. Act
ing upon the advice of his attorney, Mr..
Wells has decided that he will not audit
any bills for December or January until
the close of the fiscal year. At that time
there WILL presumably, be a surplus in
some funds which will be available for
any purpose to which the Supervisors
may wish to apply it. He agreed to audit
Street Department bills to the extent of
$34 900 a month henceforth, as that is the
one-twelfth act.
Chief Deputy Donovan represented the
Street Department at the committee meet
ing. He was served with notice by the
committee that the department must be
conducted during the month of March for
$20, 900. This was to include all expenses
other than those specially provided for.
Mr.. Donovan at once threw down the
gauntlet to the committee, saying it was
impossible to do the work for that
amount. He presented the following
statement as to the monthly expenses of
the department.:
Sweeping streets 0t0
Repair of btumen pavements. LIS
Buggy hire head gardener ..,.............. 20

In addition to this he told of material
required, such as pipe, gravel, brick, ce-
ment basalt blocks, lumber and also of
repairs to streets in front of city prop
erty. A low estimate of this, he said.
would be $4,000. This would all have to be
paid before one single laborer could be
employed. He openly scoffed at the idea
as being ridiculous, and said he, would
pay no attention to it. Upon this showing
the committee withdrew it's notice. The
$4,000 a month allowed the department for
labor is said to be the lowest for many
years. AS far back as December, 1877, the
department was allowed under the law
100 men and twenty-five horses and carts.
Chairman Aigeltinger of the Street Com
mittee was present during the session and
seconded Mr.. Donovan'S efforts to pre-
vent what he termed the Gripping of the
denorfmpnt

SENATOR'S BY DIRECT VOTE.

TWO resolutions introduced into the Assembly
by Mr.. Caminetti of Amador relative to the
election of United States Senators by direct
vote of the people have been adopted. One OF them
suggests the preparation of memorial to the Legs
atures OF the several States requesting them pc
ttion Congress to submit amendments to the ma
ona constitution by which Senators may be elected
by the people. The other requests Congress to call
national convention for the purpose. Both
resolutions were adopted by vote of 81 to g.
The positive character of this vote shows that the
same sentiment upon the Senatorial question prevails
among the legislators as among the people When
proposition calling for expression upon the sub
ect was submitted to the electors of this State several
years ago it received a 10 to I majority The beg
CARLY minority OF $1,000 out of a total OF nearly
200 900 ballots indicated that there practically
sentiment in this State against the proposition.
The remarkable thing about the action OF the As
sen1blv however consists in the fact that the propo
stion came before one OF the very houses whose pre-
negatives would be interfered with by the adoption
of the proposed change. Yet the Assembly promptly
registers the sentiment. OF course many As
semb1ymen may have voted as they did believing it
to be extremely improbable that their action would
produce any effect at least in their time; but we
have no right to any such condition upon the
face of the record The fact is that fifty four Assem-
bymen out of eighty, two-thirds OF the most
popular mouse Vi liS legislature Ao'N 'O'NN ~
adopt two resolutions which, if carried into effect,
would put an end forever to Senatorial legislative
scandals.
In the Senate it is quite likely that the majority
will be as great. The Senators older
scrvative and sensible. They certainly know
that the present method of electing United States
Senators is fruitful of scandal and corruption, and
undoubtedly they have long since reached the con-
clusion that change is advisable. Nearly every
fleeing man in the country has reached this conclu
sion and it would seem to be. only question of time
when the reform must go into effect. Even the
United States Senate, the chief beneficiary of the
present system will agree to the change if the pres
sure becomes strong enough.

volunteered apparently advise the United States to

merit OF Arctic GOODNESS and would be very refresh

expense OF revoutionizing this Government and
giving us the position OF wheeler, attached to
the British chariot he suggests that pension list
be curtailed, or in other words that we transfer
large part Of receipts from the American to the
British side of policy, and make our wounded

cost of stealing Asiatic territory and enslaving

attention of people, of their representatives in

colonization, you are taking to it like mothers

occurs to us that this kind OF mothers milk will
probably curdle on the American stomach and that

presented to the lips OF the barbarians she has
sumed the right civize has yielded blood instead
of milk A few more interviews such that
