THE NEW SENATOR
Cheering Los AngelenOS Meet Flint
at the Depot and Escort Him
to His Law Offices.
Fau1lIy Reunion on the Tram
Special Dispatch to The Call.

LOS. ANGELES, Jan. 19.-The home
coming of Senator-elect Frank b. Flint
to-day was nothing less than a tri-
umphant entry to the city which he
had left not many days before as
private citizen. The reception accord
ed him was indicative of not only his
extreme popularity, but great civic
pride in the fact that Los Angeles will
have favorite son in the highest law
making body of the natiCn. Early in
the morning fifty men prominent in
city affairs boarded a special train to
meet the Senator at Santa Susanna.
Early as were these citizens there were
three persons who were before them
and who left the city an hour ahead.
These were Mrs. Flint and her little
son and daughter. 1t was one of the
incidents not the least significant in
day that Will be long remembered by
the new Senator. Those who journeyed
far to be the first to greet the Senator
were those who would have felt none
the less tender had he returned unladen
with honors. There was a happy fami-
ly reunion On the train long before any
body else saw Senator Flint.
At the Arcade depot there was a sue
cession of ovations as the Senator,
looking the picture of health and hap
piness, bowling to the plaudits of half a
thousand admirers. stepped from the
second section of the coast line limited
just before noon. A band played Hail
to tie Chief" but cheers and repeated
cheers drowned the music. Then
through the streets lined with citizens
began the parade. In the leading car
riage were Senator Flint, Judge Slau-
son.. Major Klocke and Mayor McAleer.
Just behind fittingiy came the men
who dia the real work of electing Flint
Senator-Waiter Parker, John Mott,
Oscar Lawler and Leo Youngworth.
Then came carriages with others who
represented different social factions, all
united in the common purpose of doing
Flint honor.
The new Senator was escorted to his
old law offices, just as reminder of
the greatness of the leap he had taken
into official life. Not every United
States Senator spans the breach be-
nWeen practicing attorney and a high
hee with a single bound.
This evening public reception was
rendered Senator Flint at the Chamber
of Commerce, when Los Angeles Off.
cially expressed its pride and congratu-
lations. Many hundreds of citizens fe-
licitated the guest of honor.
Senator-elect Flint says that in a few
days, as soon as he has arranged his
personal affairs at home, he will visit
the navy yard at Mare Island and the
Sacramento River to learn what is
needed in those localities in the way of
Government appropriations. He will
endeavor in the early stages Of his Sen
atorial career to obtain funds for
public building for San Diego and other
cities of the State of similar size, and
will hasten work on the new postoffice
in Los Angeles by insisting that con-
tracts for the, building be let at once,
instead of waiting for additional appro-
priations.
Flint is outspoken in his promise to
uphold Roosevelt in the attempt being

other house by Assemblyman King Of
Napa.
A bill was introduced in the Senate
prohibiting the sale of liquor within
one and a half miles of the home
grounds. The canteen was abolished
by act of Congress and In order to
make the national legislation effective
it will be necessary to close up the
saloons in Yountville. The politicians
who were so earnest in their efforts to
close the canteen are lending no aid
to the movement to close the saloons
adjacent to the reservation.
Vigorous efforts will be made to keep
the home management out of Napa
County politics and 1t is said that the
Governor and the Legislature will make
special efforts to lift the Napa State
Asylum out of the slough of politics.
Among the bills introduced were the
following:

suggestions regarding needed legisla
tion from Rufus P. Jennings and
Messrs. Ferris, Woods, Frankenheimer.
Van Loben Sells, Patterson and other
members of the River Improvement
and Drainage Association.
A bill was presented by Jennings for
the consideration of the committees
providing for the appointment by the
Governor of committee of three to go
to Washington to secure the appoint
ment of a Government board of en-
gineers to examine and report upon the
improvement of the Sacramento River
and to confer with the committee of
three in event of it's appointment. He
also submitted a. joint resolution me-
morializing Congress to appoint the
desired board.
In connection with this bill comes the
interesting information that in reply to
a letter of thanks sent by Governor
Pardee to Major H. M. Chittenden, one
of the eminent engineers that recently
reported upon the problem Of restrain
ing the waters of the Sacramento and
San Joaquin rivers, the last named
gives 1t as his opinion that the recla-
nation of the rich farming lands now
subject to overflow need not of neces-
sity await the work of rectification of
the river channel to insure their recla-
nation.
Major Chittenden in his letter says
that 1t will take many years to COM
plete the channel work, but he says
that as soon as the channel work Is be-
gun and the work of building and re-
inforcing the levees is under way a
short time at least nine-tenths of the
lpwlands can be reclaimed, and it Is
suggested the increased income derived
by the State from these reclaimed
lands can be used to carry on the con-
struction of the permanent works, that
will forever keep the big streams with
in their bounds.

BODY OF LOUIS
BADLY BRUISED
Coroner of Napa Tells Of
Condition of Lunatic Slain
in Fight With Attendants
NINETEEN RIBS BROKEN
Physician Gives Important
Testimony at Hearing of
Men Charged With Murder
NINETEEN RIBS BROKEN

NAPA, Jan. 13.-The preliminary ex.
animation of Attendants T. d. Shana-
han and Oscar Retzman of the Napa
State Hospital for the Insane on the
charge of killing Patient Joseph r.
Louis at the institution on December
20. 1904, was resumed before Justice
Mcknight this morning. District Attor-
ney Benjamin conducted the case for
the prosecution, and Attorneys F. z.
Johnston and l.. e. Johnston appeared
for the defendants.
Coroner r. M. Kyser testified that he
was at the hospital at 10:30 o'clock on
the evening of December %. and that
he saw the body Of Louis lying upon
the floor OF room four of ward B, the
body being without clothing. The Cor
oner said he examined the body and
found marks of violence-two E-shaped
bruises on the right abdomen. He said
he placed a buckle on a leather strap
over the bruises and judged that the
wounds had been made by the buckle.
Kyser further said he thought that sew
eral of Louis ribs were broken.
DR.. L. A. sFrary, who conducted the
autopsy on the body of Louis, testified
that he found many wounds and
bruises on the body. There were sew
eral bruises over each eye, he said.
eight or ten bruises on each arm and
five or six wounds on the abdo-
men. The latter, said DIR. Frary, were
probably made with buckle at the
end of strap used to retain Louis.
Ten ribs on the right side Of the body
were fractured, the witness said, and
nine on the left side. There was also d
severe dislocation of the spinal column.
DR.. Frary stated that the death of
Louis was caused principally by the
dislocation of the spinal column. THE
ribs" said DR.. Frary, could have been
broken by the attendants using their
knees on Louis while he was PROSTATE
upon the floor"
Sheriff Dunlap testified that Retzman
told him on December 26 that while he
was feeding Louis in room four on De-
cember 25 Louis made a vicious attack
on him. Retzman, said the Sheriff, tes-
titled that he struck Louis once and
then called to Shanahan for assistance
Louis then went off into a fit and soon
died.
This afternoon the prosecution closed
its case. The defense presented no tes-
timony. After argument by the attor-
neys Justice Mcknight took the case
under adyisement.

SACRAMENTO, Jan. 13.-A concur
rent resolution was introduced in the
Assembly this. morning asking that it
be set forth by resolution that it was
the sense of both the Assembly and
the Senate that measure should be
submitted to the voters at the next
general election calling for a convention
to revise the State constitution. 1t will
require a two-thirds vote of both houses
to bring about the submission of this
matter to the electors
The present constitution of California
was adopted at Sacramento by a con-
vention that sat from September, 1878,
to March. 1879. 1t was approved by the
people the following November and
went into effect in July, 1879.
The State has outgrown it's consti-
tuition in many leading features" said
a legislator, who is interested in the
adoption of the Goodrich resolution.
The constitution was expected es-
pecially to limit the expense of the
judiciary, but that is becoming greater
than ever. An effort was also made
through provisions incorporated in it
to make the Supreme Court decide
cases faster by holding back the sal
aries of members as long as there was
anything upon the docket, This plan
did not succeed. 1t was attempted to
govern railroads through a commission
and this was a failure. 1t was hoped
through it to abolish most all other
commissions and this also failed. There
are more commissions now than ever
and Legislatures are constantly Great
ing new ones to the great expense of
the State"
The Assembly received another batch
of bills and after transacting some
minor business adjourned until 1870
Monday morning. A majority of the
members took the first trains out of
town and tonight there is but little
life In Sacramento. Next week the
legislative pot will get to boiling in
earnest.
Speaker Pro Tenn. Atkinson took his
first try at the chair this morning and
showed satisfactory speed. Speaker
Prescott took the floor to second the
acceptance of the report of the speciaI
committee appointed by the last Leg
islature of which he is chairman. and
did not resume the reins for the rest
of the session, giving Atkinson a try-
out. Assemblyman McKenney sub-
mitted the report, the gist of which
has already been published in The

was made the special order for Tues
