DEPUTIES
IN AN UPROAR
Statesmen Talk of the
Portfolio Changes.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

PARIS, May SIN the Chamber of
Deputies to-day NJ Georges Berry,
Nationalist, representing the Ninth
ACCOMPLISHMENT of the Seine, questioned
the Government as to whether the
resignation of the portfolio of war by
M. de Freycinet was due to a disagree
ment by the Minister and his col
leagues, or if M de Freycinet had re
signed because he wished no longer to
protect the chiefs of the army.
NJ. Berry also asked why the port
folio of public works had been given to
M. Monastier, who had voted against
transferring revision of the Dreyfus
case from the Criminal Court to the
whole Court of Cessation.
The Premier, NJ. Dupuy, replied that
the motives which NJ Berry alleged
were purely imaginary. There was not
a shadow of disagreement, he said
within the Cabinet. Regarding Monas-
tier, NJ. Dupuy said his appointment did
not indicate any change on the part of
the Government regarding the revision,
which, moreover, could not be regarded
as the privilege of Republican policy.
NJ. LavaYe, Nationalist, inquired if
discord in the Cabinet was not due to
the exchange of sharp letters between
NJ. de Freycinet and the Minister of
Foreign Affairs, NJ. del Casse, concern
ing the Palealogue incident.
Amidst a great deal Of uproar NJ.
Dupuy replied that the suggestion was
unfounded.
NJ Lavaye interiected that NJ. del
Casse was the possessor of cheeks in
capable of flushing, even from smacks.
Great uproar and excitement ensued.
Finally NJ Lavaye was formally cen
sured and the subject was dropped for
the order Of the day, which the Govern
ment accepted. The vote was 444 to g..
NJ. del Casse entered the Chamber Of
Deputies after the vote on the order of
the day had been taken and made
statement corroborating what had been
said by Premier Dupuy, adding that it
had needed all his self-sacrifice and
patriotism to accept the management of
foreign affairs in the circumstances un-
der which he had taken office. He be-
lieved, he said, that he had served the
country well. The statement was re-
ceiyed with hearty cheers.

ANDERSON SPEAKS OF
TACTICS OF FILIPIN0S

CHICAGO. May S.-General T. NJ. An
derson, who led the first military eXpedi-
tion to The Philippines, formally assumed
command to-day of the Department of
the Lakes, relieving General Sheridan.
who will serve on General Anderson S
staff as adlutant general. In speaking of
the situation in the Philippines, General
Anderson said he was confident that the
backbone of the Philippine rebellion will
ultimately be broken but perhaps not so
Gus character of the country and the
Businesses of the interior affording nu-
merous refugees for guerrilla parties and
bands of outlaws, he says there is every
inducement for the F'ilipinos to keep up
harassing campaign against the Ameri-
can troops
The leaders of the Malolos government
are ambitious and unScrupulOuS, said
General Anderson.
THE reason they wish for independence
is that they desire to gain control OF the
forfeited church property of the Spanish
Government, which is very valuable, and
of all Spanish concessions and dispose of
them TO their own advantage. By Spanish
concessions / mean charters for water
works, tramwaYS, electric lights and other
corporate interests They know that the
treaty with Spain cOmpels our Govern
ment to respect all corporate and treaty
rights.
ALTHOUGH Aguinaldo has the confidence
Of the DeOple and commands a large fol-
lowing among the natives, yet he is not
the real head of the rebellion there. He
is pushed forward and his popular char
acteristics made use of by the Malolos
Junta. l personally often came in con-
tact with Aguinaldo when l first estab-
lished headquarters at Cavite, and l can
not believe him entirely sincere IN his
struggle for Filipino independence.
General Anderson would not discuss the
anti-imperialist movement. He also re-
fused TO express his views on the policy
the Government should assume toward
the Philippine Islands.

SUITS AGAINST
YUBA OFFICIALS
The Grand Jury Advises
Prosecutions.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

MARYSVILLE, May S.-The Grand
Jury of Yuba County, which, aided by
an expert, has been making official in
vestigation of the books and records
of the county officers since November
last has filed second partial report
and adjourned to meet at the call of
the foreman. AS it became mooted
about that there would be some start
ling disclosures in this report, it's filing
was looked forward to with much in
terest. The report of the expert, H
II. Love of Palermo, accompanies the
document, which is quite lengthy.
Love reports that during the years
1895, 1896 and 1897 the sum of $l2, ,952 15
has been paid out of the county treas
ury without authority of law. In this
amount is included $7437 so paid for the
service of agents of the Anti-DebriS
Association, an institution that looks
to the interests of the valley counties
in the fight against hydraulic mining.
He charges that the members of the
Board of Supervisors are in debt to
the county of Yuba in the sum of
$3903 SO for money drawn from the
treasury on personal claims and on
claims allowed various livery stables
for livery hire for the Supervisors per-
sonal use He finds that the Supervis-
orS have been allowing several county
officials to present claims for extra
services rendered, especially for work
connected directly with their Offices
These claims aggregate $735 so.
Demands presented by the Horticul-
tural Commissioners he declares
doubtful from a legal standpoint, as
the commission was, in his opinion
not legally created.
The Board of Supervisors is accused
of having allowed claims that con-
tanned errors, overlooking the errors
through carelessness.
The jury recommends that the Dis
trict Attorney be instructed to COM
mence suits for the recovery of all
money illegally paid out. 1t denounces
the practice of the Supervisors in al
lowing demands to themselves for sew
eral different services on the same
day; also of allowing their own per-
sonal claims without submitting them
to the District Attorney as required
by law.
The Supervisors are censured for the
discourteous manner in which certain
members of the board treated the eX-
pert during the time of his investiga-
tions, by turning off the gas so that
he would not be able to work during
the night and by refusing to pay his
claims presented monthly or entering
on their minutes their reasons for do
ing so.
A change in the management of the
hospital is recommended.
The report of the expert is to be
printed and circulated among the tax

meeting of the California Congressional
delegation that is to be held in San Fran

Senator George c. Perkins, who is seeking
to have the State delegation organize for
harmonious and united action in Wash

owing to seniority in service, be elected
chairman. One of the first matters to
be considered is the question of census
patronage, as the bureau has taken the
southern counties Of the Sixth and Sew
enth districts and punched them into the
Sixth census district, creating the Seventh
census district out of the counties north
of Tehachapi in both the Sixth and Sew
enth Congressional districts.
