The Press Gallery at Washington Capitol
Special correspondence from Washington describes the press gallery as a two-part hub above the House and Senate where about 140 correspondents from U.S. and foreign papers work. They rely on peers, clerks, and telegraph links to file quickly, while maintaining independence and sharp analysis. Notable veterans include Gen. Boynton Col. Carson and Mr. Wight, with many younger reporters rising as the Capitol’s news cycle intensifies.

Mulford Finds San Francisco Not So Changed
Prentice Mulford speaks in San Francisco about his long absence, noting little social change since his last visit. He jokes about aging, plans, and the city’s mix of old companions, contrasting memory with present life while joking about death and the barroom scene. He mentions plans to wash four shirts and read a newspaper tomorrow as a light, ironic forecast.
