Every KIND of scheme has been resorted

citizens of Mexico. The promoters Of Chi
nese immigration are now arranging for a
direct steamship line to Mexico to land at

Effect on Senator Burrows Seat.

The election of successor to Senator Nc
MILAN Will mean much for Senator Bur-
rows. who hopes to be his own successor
when his term expires. If VIII Mcmillan
and the old machine win out this time his
chances Will probably be as good as ever,
but If some other candidate is elected there
will be a heavy cloud upon his prospects.
Senator Burrows will back VIII Mcmillan
with whatever influence he has at COM
Inand
The next legislature from present indi-
cations. Will not be as overwhelmingly re-
publican as in recent sessions. The demo-
Gratis VIII have larger representation IN
Doth houses and this will complicate af-
FAIRS for the republicans in the senatorial
election n fewer number of votes will be
required to create a deadlock and there will
De greater possibilities OF combinations
The chances are very slim that the next
legislature will be democratic. however
About half the republican candidates for
the legislature have already been nominat-
ed, many of them with no reference TO their
senatorial preferences and unpledged. This
Will introduce a larger element OF uncer-
tainty in the legislature than usual and
VIII be the occasion for great deal of
hustling between now and election to Sc
cure assurances for one or another of the
Candidates. subject. OF course. to the results
OF the election. The services OF the old ma
chine Will be especially valuable for VIII

May Have Been Imposed Upon.

This fact leads the auditor to believe
that quartermasters may have been i'm
posed upon by the owners of lighters. At
any rate, this official, while declaring that
the responsibility will have to be borne by
the quartermasters, does not believe that
any coliusion has been practiced The
dffhcuities they have to encounter in know
Ing just how to audit bill for lghterage
are many. A transport leaving San Fran
cisco may have cargo of bulky, but light
weight goods, these goods, when trans
ferred to the lighter, may be charged to
weight the full tonnage of the lighter, but
In reality weigh much less.
In this way a decided discrepancy would
be seen between the tonnage of the cargo
of the transport when 1t left San Fran
cisco and the tonnage for unloading the
same at Manila.
Although the investigation has been in
progress for several weeks. no conclusions
have yet been reached, and may not be for
some time.
