Potter Subcommittee.

NEW ORLEANS, July 22.-Chief- Clerk
Thompson, OF the custom-house, produced
roll OF employees in customs service since
Kings appointment. Would not swear it
was absolutely correct.
The object Of calling for the list, Black
burn stated, was to get the name OF a par
ticular individual, but he did not think
they were any nearer to it than before un-
less the list was absolutely correct.
Among several witnesses who testified
to-day was Senator Alain (colored), who had
received two thousand dollars for having
the names OF several electors omitted from
the Republican tickets which were fur
nished to voters Of the parish.
Mr.. Ray, counsel for Mr.. Sherman, in
forms the committee it has become necessa-
~ for Mr.. Sherman's counsel, in conse-
uuence of the delay Of the committee in
granting the request to examine witnesses
concerning intimidation, to adopt line Of
investigation emitting that OF intimidation
of which Mr.. Sherman's principal counsel
at Washington has been advised. So that
at present Ray does not wish to depart
from that line until he can communicate
with Sbellabarger.

Fauquier solid for Hunton.


WARRENToN, July 32.-Generai Eppa
Hunton has carried every district in Fau-
quier county, and will be allowed in the Con-
vention at Alexandria the entire Fauquier
delegation. His triumph is complete. At
Bealeton, CatIett's, and the Plains there is
no contest. After the adjournment of a
meeting in Warrenton Of fully three hum
dred persons twenty-five persons or less
tried to get up division at Salem. Neale
majority claim that they seeded from a
Hunton minority, as the contest at Salem
was close, and some twenty Neale men re-
fused to secede, and ce0perated with the
Hunton meeting. There can be no doubt
that Hunton delegates Of Salem will be adj
mitted.

The friends of Colonel Coleman have
been inundated with letters from all parts
Of the Fourth District expressing sympathy
within candidature.
There Is a general feeling expressed that
Captain Hinton, BY delaying to announce
himself until Colonel Coleman was in the
field, is now acting unfairly in opposing the
latter. I 3, a.
Without affirming that Colonel Coleman
will be nominated, it may safely be said that
il he Is not he will have very narrow es-
cape indeed. No objection W hateyer has
been urged against him save and except the
nnjnstitabie one that he is not sufficiently
known, and to this his friends retort that
nobody knows any Ill OF him.

The regular meeting OF the Sunday
School Association OF the Methodist Epis.
tcopal Church South in this city was held
yesterday afternoon. Addresses were de
liyered by several gentlemen, and the exer-
cfses were generally OF an Interesting Char
acter. There are seven schools belonging to
the Association, and the aggregate organizes
tfon (minIis one school), as reported yes
terday, is ], 139, with an average attendance
OF 9S5 for the past five Sabbaths. The amount
OF money collected was $500. =,
In the Hastings Court to-day the Com

travel being such that they can go TO and
return from the Point at very convenient
hours. q
Some eight or ten members Of the Vir-
ginia Press Association arrived in this city
this morning and left at g O'Clock Uia the
Atlantic, Mississippi and Ohio railroad for
Norfolk. They have their annual retinion
at Hampton tomorrow. The members eX-
pressed regret that the Association was not
more largely represented.
1t is stated that $4,000 has been spent
this year in building and rebuilding bridges
on the Atlantic, Mississippi and Ohio rail-
road, and 5000, 900 in new rails. The neces-
sary expenditure of such large sums has no
doubt been the main reason why the re-
ceivers ceased the payment OF the back
wages Of its employees.
MIR. B. F. Eckles and Mr.. Irving Jones,
two well-known citizens, are both reported
seriously i'll.
Several ladies and gentlemen who were
dining together yesterday were made quite
sick by eating OF ice-cream, which had been
imprope: " prepared. None OF them, l am
glad to state, are seriously affected.
The Atlantic, Mississippi and Ohio pay
train arrived here this afternoon. The em-
ployes along the whole line are receiving
their pay for the month Of June.

vention resolution to appoint delegates
opposed to Hunton was adopted by vote
OF 1GO to 1919. Hunton's friends then Sc

solid for Neale, his opponent.
The Gazette this evening publishes Alex
ander's reply to Hunton's last card. He
denies that be declined to accept a challenge,
but contends that he had US much right to
fear the police OF Alexandria as HuntOn
had those Of Washington. He accuses
Hunton Of being friend Of all the District
rings, and concludes by saying that he was
never known to be wanted and not found.
Hunton is at Orange Courthouse to-day.
