the charge of contempt that has kept
Ulysses S. Grants unique political man
ager close in the seclusion of his bed
chamber these past two weeks.
AS a matter of course, the usual certif1-
cate bearing tidIngs of Mr.. Green's Ill
health came to hand to explain his non
appearance and pave the way for his most
remarkable signed statement. 1t was duly
attested by Dr. Hatch, as have been the
bulletins that have preceded it, and was
read in the usual manner from the Clerk s
desk and attracted little more than ordi-
nary interest, although from the moment
it was announced it became patent to
those who have been close in this late pro-

Self-Codifving Laws.

CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA-
MENTO, Feb 7.-Senator Bulla submitted
noon the effect of which bids fair to be
far reaching should his efforts in its be-
half prove successful. His amendment
provides that all laws general in their
nature shall be introduced in the Legis-
lature in the form of amendments to pres
ent sections or additions to one of the
four codes of the State. In this way he
believes that before many years have
passed the laws will codify themselves
and the work of Code Commission will
be unnecessary.
At present measures are introduced as
acts, and these acts, when general, must
be taken by the Code Commission and
made part of the code. but under Senator
Bullas plan the bills would be introduced
in such a manner as to make the act part
of one Of the codes Immediately upon its
passage.

SENATE ROUTINE
WITHOUT INCIDENT

CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA-
MENTO, Feb. 1.-THE Superior Courts
were the subject of some more legislation
in the Senate to-day. Senator Stratton,
who yesterday fought for an amendment
allowing Judges of the Superior Court of
San Francisco salary of $5200 year,
introduced a bill extending the term of
service to twelve years instead of six.
The bill was referred to the Judiciary
Committee.
Senator Dickinson's bill to prevent the
maintenance of any action against any
county or county officer for services rem
dered in the assessment, equalization. au-
diting and collection of ad valorem taxes
was taken UP on third reading and was
passed. Another of Dickinson's bills, one
to relieve the bondsmen of j. N. b. Will
son, eX-inSurance commissioner, from la
bflity for money deposited. in the Pacific
Bank and lost when the bank failed, was
also passed.
The Judiciary Committee returned Sen
open season for editors and reporters
without recommendation.
The bill introduced by Senator Sims pro-
viding four-year terms for notaries, the
act to take effect Immediately, was
passed.
Assembly bill 100. introduced by Amer
ich appropriating S10,0 900 to pay the ex-
penses of an expert to be sent to Austria
LA and New Zealand to collect parasitic
and predaceous insects was brought up
when the Senate chamber was practically
empty. There were not sufficient num-
Der of the Senate present to pass the bill
and a call of the House was demanded
and was ordered. The sergeant-a arms
managed to find Senator Curtin and SEN
ator Gutter somewhere around the CORR
doris and they were brought to the bar
Of the House, where they voted aye, and
the bill passed.
Senate bill S25, approprating ssS,5OO for
improvements to the State University
was passed to third reading after some
objection by Shortridge, who said II the
institution needed any money it could get
ii from Mrs. Hearst. He wanted the bill
withdrawn, but it went over.

MENTO, Feb. 7.-Assemblyman Jilson Of
Siskiyou County has introduced the reg

1t was offered in the Assembly this
morning and reads as follows:
Resolved BY the Assembly, the Senate con-
curing that the Legislature of the State of
California at it's regular session, commencing
on the second day of January, Ammo Domini
1899 two-thirds of the members elected to each

ished, and fiout with impunity his disre-
gard for Legislative dignity in the faces
of every one present, had the combined
forces of Burns Barnes, Bulla and Mr..
Grants little lightning rod men lined
up solidly against them.
Particularly did this opposition to Mr.
Green's release become noticeable after
young Mr.. Works of San Diego had of
fered and had read Mr.. Green's signed
statement. A good deal of sympathy has
gone out to Mr.. Green these last few days
from the members on the floor and for
one reason and another there has been a
growing tendency to give him just shade
the best of it when the inevitable climax
should come and that same sympathy, the
reason for it still operating, might have

which shall be within the limits above pre-

protested and so did Judge Dibble and
Assemblyman Kelly of Oakland, and
finally Valentine settled it by moving that
the whole second section of the resolution

Mr.. Kelly offered a resolution directing
the Speaker to appoint a select committee
of three reputable physicians and three
members of the Assembly to call upon Mr..
