struction in Japan.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 1.--Advices
from Yokohalna under date Of october
18th were received here to-day per
steamer China Some dissatisfaction IS
expressed by the foreign residents of
Japan over some Of the decisions rem
dered by the Japanese courts under the
new treaty Revision Act. Several ar
rests have been made and great dis
content prevails.
Inc great storm, the center Of which
swept over Toxic and Yokohama on
the 1th inst, has proved to have had
q wide belt Of destruction Beside the
terrible railroad disaster on the north
EN- line beyond Utsunomya, where a
whole passenger train was blown from
a bridge into the swollen river beneath.
with loss Of twenty killed and forty
wounded out of total Of eighty pas
sengers, the damage to the south line
between Yokohama and Kobe has been
very extensive.
The great tidal wave which accom-
panied the storm in the south has piled
up mountains of sands and shingle
across the mouth of the Usui River.

all the back country Thousands of
laborers are at work seeking to cut an
outlet through the embankment, but
thus far without success.
In spite of the peculiar difficulties
with which railways in Japan have to
contend in the way Of earthquake and
flood, the work Of building new ones
is progressing with great rapidity. The
increase In mileage during the last year
has been 40 miles, making a total
length now finished of J, ,42O miles, while
those under construction or charter will
make grand aggregate of $50 miles
The impending war in the Transvaal
is arousing the liveliest interest on the
part Of the Japanese, the conviction
being very strong among them that
Russia will seize the opportunity to
carry things in Northern Asia with all
even higher hand than usual. In the
meantime, there is much glee over the
way in which the islanders have check
mated the Russian designs on Masam-
pho, port with a magnificent harbor
which the Russian Admiralty recently
visited, finding it just the place for the
establishment of dock yard and coal
ing station. An application made to
the Corean Government was readily
granted, but meanwhile Japanese pri-
vate parties had bought practically the
whole site from the Corean owners, and
cannot now be dispossessed. 1t appears.
however. that the Russians, as a count
er move, are to demand as compensa-
ton an island midway between Masam
pho and Tsushima, the latter island
commanding the channel, being now a
strategic point of the highest import
ance to the japanese.

CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA-
MENTO, Feb 17.-The way of the
transgressor is hard. Poor old Senator
Simpson slept and wept all afternoon
in his seat in the Senate chamber. Be
fore sundown he was carried by two
touts to his room at Gil K street.
His condition was pitiable in the ex-
treme Before he was completely over
come he opened and read many tele-
grams from his former friends in Los
Angeles County. The rebukes admin
istered must have been scathing and
racking, as he destroyed many of the
kilograms without permitting his fam
lily to perceive their contents At mid
night his condition was deplorable If
not critical. Attendants were at his
bedside to do whatever could be done
to mitigate the physical and mental
distress of the disgraced and suffer-
ing man. 1t would be no surprise If a
complete collapse of the Senator should
follow. Physicians and nurses NAV
be able to get him on his feet again.
but his usefulness in public and pro-
fessional life is at an end.
Tonight in every Senatorial camp
other than the corral of touts there are
words of contempt and cenSure for the
methods employed by Burns to aug
ment his strength. 1t is regarded as
shameful that Burns should have taken
advantages of the infirmities of a weak
old man to induce him to betray his
neighbors and forfeit the respect of his
associates. The history of the Wright
case is repeated, and Burns has weak
ened rather than strengthened his
cause by the employment of heartless
measures to bring men into line. When
the protest was lodged against the ex-
treme cruelty of forcing Wright into
the corral Burns exclaimed:
THE vote belongs to me and I will
have it,"
In the Simpson case the vote did not
belong to b-rns. 1t belonged to a
Southern California candidate, and the
method employed by the touts to get
it were no more creditable tan the act
of rolling a drunk and robbing him.
Burns has fallen several degrees in the
estimation of the reputable members
of the Legislature since he accom-
plished the undoing of Simpson. In the
minds of decent and respectable Sena-
tors and Assemblymen there is a SEN
timent that such measures as Burns
employed to win the vote of Simpson
are degrading, and should be rebuked
