BLOW OR HEART FAILuRE7
Jury Will Decide the Cause ofTy-
Ier's Death--Case on To-day.

Thomas Foley, one of the principals IN
fight which resulted in the death of
George Tyler is being tried in the Cen
eral Sessions Court today for manslaugh-
ter The fight took place about z P. M.
on January of this year. The trouble
which led up to it occurred in the pool
room of the Boulevard Hotel in Mont
gomery street. near Bergen avenue, on
New Years eve.
Foley, Tyler and some others were
playing pool and dispute arose which
resulted in Tyler and Foley getting into
clinch and striking each other. The
bartender separated them. The two
young men afterward arranged to fight
it out and determine which was the bet
ter man. Friends of the principals and
the principals themselves arranged to
have the fight take place on the evening
Of the 4th, in a barn at Summit ave-
nue. and Rock street. Foley and Tyler
selected five friends each, seconds were
chosen and the preliminaries were ar
ranged just the same as in a regular
prize fight.
When the party arrived at the barn
where the event was to be pulled off, y
decided that the fight could not take
place there. After consultation between
both parties it was arranged to go down
to Cornelison avenue, under the Mont
gomery street bridge, and have it out.
The place was illuminated by an electric
light under the bridge. The men pulled
off their coats and went at it,
Tyler seemed to have the better of the
fight for the first few rounds but sud-
denly he reeled and fell to the ground.
Foley it is, alleged, had struck him on the
Adams apple. The blow killed him. The
witnesses of the battle were:-John Green,
of No. 713 Montgomery street; Walter B.
Bailey, of No. 1854 Baldwin avenue; John
Mullins, of No. AZ Orchard street; Peter

TEMPORARY INSANITY.
DR.. Carton Says That was the
Cause of Miss Walters
Attempted Suicide.

The case of Miss Walters, of the Bay
onne Hospital, who attempted suicide on
Friday last by jumping from a Central
Railroad ferryboat, has been partially
cleared up. 1t appears that about week
ago the matron handed in her resignation
to DR.. Donohue, saying that she was go
ing to Europe, but would remain until her
place had been filed. She began packing
her trunk Wednesday, but she became
hysterical and requested a nurse to COM
plete the job for her.
She went to Police Headquarters Thurs
day and began talking in an incoherent
manner. She was sent back to the hos
pital.
She left the hospital Friday and the
next heard of her was that she had been
taken to New York after her rescue from
drowning.
DR.. Corwin of the Bayonne Hospital
brought Miss Walters back to the hos
pital on Saturday. He says she is suf-
fering from temporary insanity but is re-
covering rapidly.
Miss Walters was one of the best ma
irons the hospital ever had.

MENTO, Jan. Ex-senator BulIa has re-
ceived assurances from the eleven legisIa-
tors who are casting their ballots for
him that they will continue to vote for
him until they notify him that they have
decided to change their votes to some
other candidate. No such notification was
given this evening, so for that reason he
feels confident that the eleven votes he
had to-day he will have tomorrow, with
possibly one or two more. The Bulla men
do not expect to accomplish anything
very much in the way of additional votes
until after the break comes. They do
not look for any break tomorrow, but
they are working to bring one about. They
have a hard job on their hands and they
realize 1t. They are still laboring to Sc
cure all the pledges they can for Bulla as

He had decided to drop out of the con-
test for three or four ballots. But to-day

sufficiently strong to not only change
Nolfe's vote, but also to induce him
to place Burns in nomination before
the Legislature.
Judge Dibble votes for Burns in a.
clear tone of voice and he is ready at
any time to engineer a caucus for the
colonel, but the oratorical voice OF
Dtbble had not been heard in behalf OF
Burns, and therefore lamentations may
be heard where the touts congregate.
Assemblyman Clark of Santa Clara
was told directly that he could not ex-
pect to pass a bill or do anything in
the Legislature for his constituents If
he did not at once get into line TOR
Burns. The Assemblyman signif1ed
that he had only one important meas
ure to pass. but if necessary he would
sacrifice his prospects of its success
rather than vote against the will OF the
people who sent him to the Legislature.
He reasoned that he had only sixty
days TO live in Sacramento, whereas he
expected to pass the rest Of his life in
Santa Clara County. He preferred,
therefore, to so conduct himself in the
Legislature that he could go home to
his friends and neighbors and continue
to enjoy their confidence and esteem
The readiness of the Grant men to
take a second ballot in joint assembly
to-day seemed to outsiders as an indi-
cation of confidence upon the part or
Grants managers. 1t was a bluff
rather than a display of confidence. 1t
was known in advance that Burns was
not willing to go ahead on another bal
lot, because his touts failed to con-
meet last night on several important
engagements. Burns calculated on ad-
ding four votes to his black list, but
those who were staked out to be listed
withheld consent. Green and Brown.
the Grant colors, then came to the
front, challenging another test Of
speed.
The Burns oratory to-day was dis
printing to the touts. Wolfe was lame
and Pierce was silly. The Senators
and Assemblymen who have consented
to stand for Burns were not willing to
go ahead with another ballot. Some of
them cherish the hope that they will
be released from the peculiar obliga-
ton to support Dan before the dawn
of another day.
There is no doubt tonight that Judge
Dibble, Grove Johnson and several
others Of the Legislature would like to
have a close heart to heart talk with
Herrin to convince him of the utter
folly of prolonging the contest on be-
half of Dan Burns. They do not say
so. but actions sometimes speak louder
than words.

NO MORE JILS0NS
IN THE GRANT CAMP

CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA-
MENTO, Cal, Jan. 1.-THE twenty-seven
Senators and Assemblymen who voted for
L. S. Grant on joint ballot to-day will
vote for him again tomorrow. This is
what they decided TO do in caucus to-
night There are no more Jilsons in the
Grant camp just now, and Governor Gage
and the State patronage club cannot be
used for the present to drive any more
of Grants supporters into the Burns
camp.
All but three of the twenty-seven Grant
men were present at caucus this even
ing Assemblyman Crowder of San Diego
County was sick. Assemblyman Cheyno-
with of Orange County was detained on
account of sickness in his family. AS
semblyman Merrill was not. there, but he
sent word that he would be bound by the
action of the caucus.
The whole situation was thoroughly dis
cussed by the twenty-four who were pres
ent. Not one of them seemed to be at all
disheartened at the situation as it exists.
After some considerable talk a resolution
was offered and unanimously adopted that
those participating in the conference
would continue to vote for Mr. Grant I'M
til another caucus was called. If al any
time any of the present supporters Of
go TO the support of some other candidate
notice is TO be given. Il caucus will be
called ana the ISSlSldlOE ueSlTlIlS TO leave
Grant will be released. Mr.. Grant ad-
dressed the caucus, briefly expressing
himself as highly satisfied with the re-
suit of the first two ballots. He thanked
his friends for the support they had given
him, and added that he did not propose
to ask any one to vote for him any longer
than he thought there was a prospect for
him to be elected. If the time ever ar
rived when it was deemed advisable to
withdraw his name. Mr.. Grant stated that
he was perfectly wiling to step aside and
permit any gentleman they might select
to take his place.
Mr. Grants remarks were received with
satisfaction by his supporters, and they
all reaffirmed their loyalty to him and
their intention to remain true to his
standard.
The caucus decided to make an effort
TO secure an expression of some kind from
the Republicans of Siskiyou county as to
whether or not the action of Assembly
man Jilson is deserving Grant and going
over to the support of Burns met with
The caucus then adjourned, to meet
again on the call Of any of Mr.. Grants
supporters. His managers were very hap
py at the results accomplished by the
conference, for it was an assurance to
them that their strength is not to be
broken for while at least, and any ad-
ditional votes they get tomorrow will
be a net gain. There will be no off,
sets by deserving.
