RICHMOND, September 16th.-It is gener
ally known that the plan of compromise sub
mitted last night by the regular Conservative
Committee to that of the Readjusters, pro
vides for the formation Of mixed Electora
ticket, to be made Up of FIVE of the Conserva
tive Electors and five of the Readjuster Elec
tors, the eleventh Elector to be named b.
the National Democratic Committee, o
chosen by lot. The Reac justers remained il
session all night, and finally agreed upon tn,
following reply: They reject the plan pro
posed by the Conservative Committee, no
out of any indisposition to unite the support
ers OF Hancock and English, but out of a be
lief that the proposed plan is not calculated
to accomplish the object sought ; yet in con
sideration of the apprehensions which exist
outside that division in the party may re
suit in the loss to the Democracy of the cleo
toral vote of Virginia, which apprehension il
not shared in by the Readjusters, they pro
pose that the electoral ticket question be set
tied By the people at primary election to b.
held on the 10th of October, at which all per
sons shall be allowed to vote who pledg,
themselves to vote for Hancock and English
The reply will be submitted to the Conserva

Maud 5. at Chicsso.
CHICAGO, September 16th.-A large audi
ence assembled at the Jockey Club grounds
| this afternoon, on account of the attempt O.
Maud S. to beat the record of 2:114 Th,
weather was pleasant, but there was a strong
east wind. The appearance of Maud S. OF
the track to trot against time for 81, 800 was
the signal for hearty applause. The first heal
was merely made to warm up, and as she lef
her feet several times it was made in 2:264
| The first quarter of her second heat was made
steadily in 81 seconds, and then she was cut
loose for her best speed, making the half il
| 1:044. Her driver sped her at an undimin
ished gait to the three quarter pole, which
was reached in 1:364. Coming home there
was scarcely less excitement than when the
record was lowered in the summer meeting
for it seemed certain that she would make
the mile in 2:l1 at least but she left her fee
when but few yards from the wire, and the
| heat was spoiled. However, the watches die
not seem to agree, those outside of the stanC
making her time 2:10a to 2:11, while the time
announced by the judges was 2:115. Or
Saturday Maud S. will be exhibited on the
track, and may possibly be sent for fast
mile. All prominent horsemen will, on tn,
conclusion of the meeting, go to Louisvill,
and Cincinnati.
