Grand Jury of Sacramento Is Probing Into Capitol Removal Matter-Coercion Is Alleged on Part of Railroad.

SACRAMENTO, Calf. March H. The grand jury of Sacramento, which has under investigation the means and methods alleged to have been used in securing the passage of the capital removal bill in the legislature, tonight examined three assemblymen as to whether coercion or intimidation was used by lobbyists in trying to get votes sor the measure. The action of the grand jury is based upon a letter published in Fresno paper which purported to be from Assemblyman Drew, and in which the latter is al legged to have stated that George F. Hatton came to him and declared that if Drew would support the capi- tai removal measure, he (Hatton) would have McGuire's Fresno county division bill killed in the senate. Drew was at the time making a bitter fight against McQuire's measure.
 When the assehmbly convened this afternoon Drew, Devlin, Chandler and McGuire arose, announced that they had been subpoenaed to appear be- fore the grand jury and asked to be excused in order to answer the sum- mons. The house refused to grant them permission to be absent but at 5 o'clock Drew. Chandler and Devnn appeared before the grand jury and were closely questioned. Mcclure will be examined tomorrow morning and it is understood several made legislators will be subpoenaed tomor- TOW.
 Drew stated that he had been in being contemplated for all who are suspected of having resorted to methods in attempting to get votes for the bill. He declared that he would stand by the statement made in his letter. but he did not be- lieve Hatton's action constituted a violation of the law.
 The three superior judges of Sacra- mento met with the grand jury this afternoon and Judge Post pointed out to the grand jury & section Of the penal code under which they could proceed at length. This section reaos:
 Any person who seeks to influence the vote of a member of the legisla- ture by bribery, promise, or reward. or any other dishonest method, shall be guilty of lobbying, which is described as a felony"
 Judge Post said:
 If the declarations made by Hatton

others when the work of the fity-ninth congress- is reviewed. More has been accomplished in its two years, more drastic, reformatory Legislation has been enacted than was true of proceed ing congresses within decade. ,
 Seoondarily. the minority, the small est minority. of years, must be cred Isted vfth having been an allimportant inauencs in bringing about this re- suit,
 The latter statement is Rot made in political spirit. As a matter of fact it Is doubtful whether the democrats will reap material pol5csl advantage from the literal record of the fifty ninth congress unless 1t be by point ing to the enormous expenditure Of public money during the last two years-almost two billion dollars.
 But the question of appropriations is apart from that of legislation af- fecting the general public interest
 Democrats Forced Legislation.
 The keynote of the whole course of events here has been that in all the acute crisis affecting bills of great moment the minority on both sides of the capitol backed President Roose- welt and a small group of republi- cans. The upshot in almost every in stance was that, in order to prevent an outright party split, the republi- cans had to get together on some proposition that at least approximated genuine legislation of the desired kind. .r-
 When the republican orators get out upon the stump they will point to the official record They will refer to the fact that very generally the repub- Iican senators and representatives voted for the railroad rate law, the pure food Jaw, the meat inspection law, the non-immunity act, the em- ployers' liability act, the criminal ap- peal bill, the corporation contribution bill. and so on.
 Thus, politically, the democrats are up against the difficult proposition of assailing the majority party, not be- cause it's representatives voted aginst the railroad rate law-taking this for an illustration-but because they did not vote out of sympathy for it, but because they were forced to act as matter of political expediency.
 The democrats have shown what a quick-thinking and cohesive minority can do.
 The railroad law Is the most con spicuous testimonial to their services.

GREENECOWBOYS OBJECT ID
 NEGRO
Resent ForCibIy Action of the Ranch Superintendent In Hiring BIack-Are Now Out of Jobs and Angry.
Special to Reyiew.)


 TOMBSTONE, March ll.-Parties coming up from Hereford today state that tS1re came near being serious trouble at that place on Saturday even ing between Superintendent Martin of the Greene Cattle Company and the cowboys that had been in the en- ploy of the company. The trouble started over the employment of a ne gro by Superintendent Martin. He en- tered the employ of the company on Saturday and at supper time was told by Martin to sit down at the table and eat with the cowboys. They most seriously objected, most of them being from Texas. They stated their obiec- tions to Martin, but he refused to list en to them, and as 6 consequence the entire force, including the range fore man as well as the ranch foreman. jumped their jobs. They were very bitter in their denouncsations ct Su- perintendent Martin and trouble was only averted by Martin keeping away from the enraged cowboys. The re- suit is that the cowboys are now hunt ing a new job, while the Green Cattle Company Is looking for another bunch of cowboys.

In the afternoon l drove with a par

were several other guests, all unknown

graft, corruption, dissatisfaction

Canal Zone has been sprung and
has met with more than usual
ly prompt and emphatic denial
from Mai. Goethals, the engi-

from an army officer is the ma

speaks at all. An engineer Cffi-
Ger who was sent to put a fire

promptly say that the job just
suited him, if there were any
question raised by outsiders.

Notes From w ashin gton
From Our Regular Correspondent.


There has been a lot of talk in
the past week over the report
that the government was going
to send large section of the
battleship squadron from the
Atlantic to the Pacific coast to
strengthen the naval arm there
and be ready for any aggression
on the part of the Japanese.
There is just truth enough in
this story to make it interesting
The immediate reply of the navy
department was that the story
was made out CT whole cloth.
This might have been good
enough for lay consumption,
except for the fact that the de-
partment admitted that the bat
tleships were going. But it ex-
planned that the arrangements
for their departure had been
made years ago, and that the
government had been waiting
to make the move only till we
had enough ships to spare some
more for the Pacific Coast. This
was true enough in a way. but
we have not added any battle
ships to the navy in the past
few weeks, and the move would
not have been made now except
for the fact that the Japanese
situation has been strained
enough to warrant considera-
ton, if nothing more. No fleet
that we could spare for Pacific
service just now would be effect
i've against the navy that Japan
could send from her home ports
for she has all her navy in the
Pacific. There is ms immediate
prospect of our needing an in
creased naval force out there,
but the move merely indicates
how the wind blows. 1t will
look good deal less pointed to
send some battleships to the
coast now than it would if the
situation with Japan were really
acute.
