WASHINGTON, December 8.-An inter-
view between Post reporter and Messrs.
Bcale and Cabeli, OF the Virginia delega-
ton, published to-day, has excited great
deal OF comment among Virginians, and I
| have not met one who agreed entirely with
what General Beale is reported as saying.
The reporter states that be asked him il
General Malone would be elected senator,
and that he replied, I" Such is my opinion.
and think he will come to the Senate as a
Republican" Colonel Cabell Is reported as
saying that he believed General Malone
wouldsbe elected, and that there is not the
slightest danger OF the election Of Repub-
lican Said be, in addition, ssMy belief is
that in case OF lock OF any kind it would
be the duty Of Democratic Debt-Payers
to make some composition with the Re-
adiustcrs, so as to elect senator
who has some flavor CT Democracy about
him." Both believed Virginia could be
relied on for the Democratic. candidate. "a
party OF Virginians were discussing this
afternoon the situation at Richmond, when
one remarked: "It is strange turning
around OF things in politics when the same
wave that lifts Lewis G.. Haryie into Office
carries Robert Hunter into retirement
referring to the lifelong intimacy and per-
sonal and political friendship which has ex-
istcd betWeenthem. Another said : 'tWby,
Haryie first made Hunter senator, and did
more than anybody else for him in the State
Convention which preceded the Charleston
Convention in 1902 Senator Johnston
then remarked that he was member OF
that Legislature, and was one OF the
l,twenty-two Democrats who ucted with Mr..
I HarYie. He gave an interesting account
OF the protracted struggle, stating that
they resisted all offers to. unite on John
Winston Jones, Thomas Fl. Bayly, and otE-
ers. The impression prevails at Washing
ton that General Malone will be the sena-
tor, ard leading Republicans who want a
Republican elected confess that they think
he can get enough Republican votes to beat
pp0r inc a ISf
have stated here that they have no personal
hostility to Senator Withers, and that If
they were in the minority in the LeGisla-
ture they would vote for him in preference
to his Debt Paying rivals. +.
JUDGE RILEY RETURNS FROM RICHMOND-HIS
| INTERVIEW WITH GENERAL MALONE.
The Washington Star of this afternoon
has the following:
"Judge Riley, Of the Treasury Depart
ment, returned from Richmond this morn
ing. He says the union between the Re-
a1iusters and Republicans in the Virginia
Legislature is compact and harmonious,
and that they intend to make clean sweep
of the officers under control OF the Legisla-
ture. The offices are to be divided between
, the Republicans aud the Readiusters, and
, to a remark that the combination was sim.
e ply for the sake Of spoils, the Judge replied,
ooh, Of course He said that General
Malone will undoubtedly be elected United
+ the Readiusters in voting for him. Judge
, Riley had talk with General Malone yes
l terday, and on oil national questions the
latter is Democrat, and will act with the
, Democratic party In Congress"
, SENATOR JONES, OF FLORIDA, AND MR..
BATARD.
] Senator Jones, OF Florida, who is blessed
5 with an abundance OF vigorous common
sense, entertains conservative views in re.
ga,d to the situation, and counsels bis
party to do nothing rash or impolitic
2 Said he to-day, s'Because I differ from
. Bayard as to the weight of silver dollar
it is no reason why should turn my back
upon him and fail to recognize the fact thai
be has the support and confidence OF the
. most powerful elements Of the Democratic
party in those eastern States which we have
: fair chance Of carrying at the presidential
election next fall" He paid handsome
, tribute to the patriotism and ability OF the
Delaware Senator. -
THE SEYMOUR MEN PLEASED.
The Seymour men are elated at the an
) nouncement that their presidential favorlte
will speak at the International Dairy Fair
on Monday, and that there is a prospect Of
!. his having Grant and Hayes .arnong bis
4 hearers. They say Senator Herman was
right when he remarked the other day that
Governor Seymour is enjoying excellent
health. I Eeard several Of them refer tt
the fact that heis not quite three.score.and
ten, and hence is much the junior Of the
Il commander OF the Prussian army and the
Prime Minister Of Great Britain.
TUE CAPITOL LOOKED LONELY.
Only very few senator's or members o.
the House went to the Capitol to-day, aud
General Hunton's District Committee was
the only one at work. The building looked
lonely. and it became SO dark by O'Clock
that Gas had to be lighted in the offices. The
newspaper people generally kept away and
sought information at the Departments and
the White House.
