The Wily Duckworth. Sacramento, Jan, 21.—There was a feeling.of suppressed excitement. ini the air this morning when the’ Assembly opened. Members. of the Assembly gathered together in small crowds in the-corner of the Assembly Chamber or in tiooks in'the lobbies, and discussed the most serious situation that has confronted the Republican party in many a: long day. It was generally known that the attempt to. oust Chief Clerk Duckworth had signally failed. Duckworth had shown himself to be a shrewder man and a brighter politician than he had been given credit for. -He had stated that if the matter was forced too strongly he would whip the leaders.of the Assembly into line and make many who ate against him take water. No sooner was ee informed that he must resign than he decided upon a unique plan. He induced the Democratic and Populist minority to hold a caucus last night and hear his appeal. In his address to the caucus he said that in the matter “in question others were more guilty than he, and that he considered it would be a great injustice to let him out without a hearing. Two of the Democratic attaches who received appointments were recommended by members of the Republican caucus, He said the opposition against him was designed-to cause his ruin, in order’to save others. With the Democrats and ‘Populists iriends agreeing to stand by him, Duckworth hada majority in ‘the Assembly, and when the Republican caucus learned of the combination, they saw it would be useless to press the issue any further. The matter will probably be buried in the committee. As a result of this turn in the tide, Duckworth is today. regarded as the biggest man in Sacramento, the members of the Republican caucus freely admitting that he was too much for them.
