A startling rumor that found it's way

rumors it is still growing and there is

Wednesday night, at which the guests
of honor were Lord Athlumney and his
friend Mr.. Ansil of London, some awful
things occurred. 1t is said that cer-

there was a row and the whole outfit

GAME LAW PASSED.
Usual Debate Takes Place in Regard
TO the Measure.

W -slCuS0IC.
SACRAMENTO Feb. 24.-Though
nearly all members of the Assembly
who had any amendments to the ex-
listing game law gathered and agreed
on a committee substitute for the vari-
Gus bills introduced the general mea
sure could not get through without
some debate. The plan of a composite
bill, representing as nearly as possible
all sections, prevented, however, any
such continued wrangling as previous
sessions have witnessed.
Creighton of Redding offered an
amendment providing that the open
duck season begin on October l instead
of October Is. He said such an amend
ment was necessary to give the peo-
pie in the duck-breeding fields of the
north chance to kill some of the
birds.
1T has been practically said to US
by people down this way" he said,
that all we want you people up there
to do is to raise the ducks SO they may
come down to the central part of the
State for us to shoot. If the season
remains as it is the people of my sec
ton viii violate the law openly, for
no jury can be found there to convict
them for what is deemed in that To-
cality an unjust law.
THE youth of that section see their
fathers violate the law and they fol-
low the example. Taught by this ex-
ample to violate one law of the State
they will violate others"
Rolley spoke in favor of Creighton's
amendment, saying the law was
changed two years ago for the express
purpose of giving the sportsmen in and
around Sacramento and San Francisco
two weeks extra hunting.
Creighton's amendment was defeated
and the bill was passed. The para
graph providing that no ducks shall
be killed from a sneak boat had been
eliminated. 1t was argued that this
worked too much in favor of the rich
and leisure class, who could practice
q great deal at the traps and become
expert wing shots, While the average
marksman would have much less
chance of securing the bag of fifty,
which is retained as the limit.
Bills were passed by the Assembly
to-day as follows:

YAQQI CHIEFS
Put TO DEATH
Special Dispatch to The call.

TUCSON, Ariz, Feb. 24.-Passengers
arriving from Hermosillo report that
as the train left that city a CHASTITY
sight met the eyes of the passengers.
Six Yaqui chieftains, part of the band
of Indians who took the warpath and
were captured near Ures, were taken
to an old graveyard, about a mile from
the city, and strung to the trees. The
bodies of the Indians thus executed are
allowed to remain hanging to trees and
telegraph poles for days and sometimes
weeks as an example to others of their
tribe.
Hermosillo is full of troops which will
be sent into the districts where the In
dians are upon the warpath. Several
thousand men have already been
brought into Sonora through the port
of Guaymas and from Chihuahua.
Governor Ysabell has received a let
ter signed by five Seri chiefs. offering
to take the field against the Yaquis
with a force of five hundred archers.
but the Mexican authorities are not in
clined to trust these bloodthirsty in
habitants of Tiburon Island. who
themselves have given the Government
much trouble in the past
Minor depredations are reported from
every section. A trader, who ventured
to make trip from La Colorado to a
neighboring town without a guard,
was murdered and his wagons plum
dered. The authorities have made no
concerted movement recently, prefer
ring to await the arrival of reinforce
mentS.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 24-Consul-
General Hanna telegraphed to the
State Department from Monterey to-
day that the Mexican Government has
been Furnishing the Yaqui Indians who
recently murdered prominent Ameri-
cans in Sonora, and that more than
twenty Yaquis have been collected and
more than two hundred have been

TO LIMIT EXPENSES.

SACRAMENTO, Feb. 24.-After an
interesting debate the constitutional
amendment affecting sessions of the
Legislature, as proposed by the Senate
Committee on Constitutional Amend
ments, was amended this morning and
sent to the printer. AS it now stands
il reads.
The sessions of the Legislature shall COM
nence AT - o'clock m on the first Monday
after the first day of January next succeeding
the election of its members and after the cleo
tion held in the year 1850 shall be. biennial,
unless the Governor shall, in the interim, con-
vene the Legislature by proclamation No bill
shall be introduced in either house forty days
after the commencement OF each session with
out the consent of three-fourths of the MEM
bers thereof.
The members of the Legislature shall receive
for their services the sum of $1,000 per session,
to be paid at such time during the session as
may be provided by law and mileage to be
fixed by law and paid out Of the State treas
ury: such mileage not to exceed 10 cents per
mile and contingent expenses not TO exceed
$25 for each session.
The Legislature may also provide Tor ad,
dtional help but in no case shall the total
expense for employees or attaches exceed the
scm of $500 per day for either house. nor shall
the pay of any attache be Increased after he
is elected or appointed.
During the debate Senator Carter
proposed a further amendment to the
bill limiting the sessions to seventy five
days. but he withdrew it when it was
pointed out that if sessions were linn
tied a strong minority might make
such combinations that legislation
would be effectively blocked.
Carter's proposed constitutional
amendment providing for the deposit
of State, county and municipal funds in
national and State banks was adopted
and sent to the Assembly. Reconsider
alton of Sanford's bill to establish deer
reserves and Carter's bill providing for
the appointment of Interpreters of the
Italian language in cities and counties
of 1O0,00 inhabitants was denied.

OPPOSES VOTING
BY The RED MAN

WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.-Efforts to
harmonic the differences over the
statehood bill continued fruitlessly In
the Senate to-day. There seemed to be
no disposition on the part of the
friends of the proposition for two
States to be made of four Territories
to accept a compromise permitting Ok
and Indian Territory to come in
at the present session and compelling
the other Territories to wait.
Morgan intimated that the pressure
to secure the passage of the bill was
due to would-be officehoIders. Speak
ing OF the provision for voting by the
Indians. he said:
The pettifogging politician could have no
better neld than this With bottle Of whisky.

He predicted that the scandal that
would come out of these elections
would adhere not only to the new
State, but to the people of the United
States.
Morgan read a magazine article
quoting Governor Garvin of Rhode ISL
and on political corruption in that
State, and said:
That is the cultured State of Rhode Island:

a jug of whisky. Otherwise, he said.
the Indians all would be drunk before
election and remain so as long as
there was whisky.
Foraker interrupted to move to ad-
journ, but before doing so he yielded
to permit a motion to appoint confer
ees on the Panama canal bill. Bailey
objected, saying that no more confer
ences could be had until the statehood
matter was settled.

ADJOURNMENT CoNsTDERED.

Atkinson moved that the concurrent
resolution providing for the adjourn
ment of the Legislature on March A,
which is in the hands of the Ways and
Means Committee, be withdrawn at
once and placed on file that it may be
acted on at any time. The motion was
adopted Members who have appro-
priation bills pending are fearful that
the resolution will be adopted and that
their measures will not receive atten-
ton. There are many who will fight
adjournment before March IL, unless
the Assembly gets much further ahead
than it promises to be on March A.
The bill providing that the statute
of limitations shall run against a claim
only from the time the last payment is
made was passed. Assemblyman Pyle
made speech in favor of 1t, saying it
would prevent the merchants of the
State from being beaten out of thou
sands of dollars that they now lose.
The grade crossing bill came back
from the Senate that the amendment
excluding its operations from cities
and incorporated towns might be con-
Cured in, and that 1t might be passed
as amended and sent to the Governor
Walsh moved immediate action, but
Cromwell and Espey asked for time,
saying that the members should be
given time to study the new amend
ment. Walsh himself finally consented
that the matter should go over for
special consideration on Monday aft

CLEVELAND, Ohio. Feb. 24-Mrs.
Chadwick when placed on the stand
in the bankruptcy proceedings to-day
before Referee Remington refused at
first to be sworn. After a consultation
with her attorneys she finally con-
sented to take the oath. She was then
asked to state her name. She refused
to reply and similarly treated many
of the questions that followed.
My financial affairs are so closely
allied with the case in the Federal
court that anything affecting the one
must necessarily the other" said Mrs.
Chadwick. and the referee declared
that that explanation of her position
was as admirably expressed as it could
be.
The referees examination was a Sc
ries of wrangles and disputes Mrs
Chadwick answered a few questions.
but her answers were remarkably free
from information. Finally the court
and counsel on all sides agreed that
the examination might just as we'll
stop abruptly because there was no
hope of securing any information from
the bankrupt. Accordingly March IL
was set for resumption of the hear
ing, with the understanding that Mrs.
Chadwick would testify freely on that
date if the criminal cases against her
had been disposed of by that time
Mrs. Chadwick to-day paid SO from
her own funds for a carriage to con-
yey her from the County Jail to the
bankruptcy court, a distance of one
block. She did this after unsuccess-
fully attempting to compel the Federal
authorities to furnish carriage. ON

special Dispatch to The Cali

SACRAMENTO. Feb. 24.-The AS
sembly Committee on Building and
Loan Associations, Waste chairman,
to-day reported without recommends
ton the bill that has resulted from the
Joint conferences of the committees OF
both houses and the Woodward inVesti-
eating committee of the Senate There
seems 10 be a disposition on the part OF
the Assembly committee 10 handle the
joint bill which il presents as Subsu-
tute for all building and loan bills pre-
Viously introduced in the Assembly. as
gingerly as il il were a hornet ready TO
sting. The members submitted it with
the reservation that they have the full
right To amend it on the floor or to
fight any portions shown TO be bad, or
the whole OF it, if deemed advisable.
This substitute bill contains many
provisions suggested by Clarence
Grange. who has sprung into fame in
legislative circles, not alone by his con-
nection with the bribery cases, but be-
cause Of his remarkable keenness in
building and loan matters. So many of
his ideas were advanced in connection
with the substitute measure that il is
jocularly known as the Grange bill ="
IL will produce a great deal of debate
when il comes up.
1t is alleged in some circles of the
Legislature that the measure really
gives the large companies more lati-
tude than they enjoy at present. Those
companies known as the locals" are
displeased with it, and a building and
loan row may be precipitated by the
bill Frank Otis, secretary and mana
ger of the Local League of San Fran
cisco, is reported as having said:
The changes in the new bill in real
ity VIII give the nationals more scope
than heretofore. while the locals will
be more hampered than ever, the for
nation of new locals being practically
strangled. There seems to have been a
misunderstanding of the two classes of
building and loan and a blow is being
struck at true cooperation"
The Assembly committee was given
but one typewriter copy of the bill
and had no time TO study it, for if any
thing is TO be done with it during
this session il was necessary to intro
duce ii at once.
