UNSUCCESSFUL ATTEMPT TO CAPTURE GILES
GIE's BAND-OUTRAGRs BY THE DKSPERA-
DOEs-TERRORIsM IL FRANKLIN COUNTY, &C.
WAsHTNGToN. May 3.-lnternal- Revenue
AGENT Tracie, who has been conducting
raids upon illicit dstiIlers in Franklin
county, Va, has forwarded 10 Commits
sioper Raum a detailed account OF the re-
cent unsuccessful attempt TO capture the
notorious David Gillespie. Agent Tracie
has offered one hundred dollars reward
for Gillespie's arrest; but he says: Few
seem anxious to undertake the capture OF
this notorious desperate. Since my raid
on the both Gillsple and his crowd OF sup
porterS have committed shameful outrages
upon innocent colored people in that neigh
borbood, whom they charged with giving
information 10 the revenue officers. They
went IN disguise, with faces bIackencd, and
whipped men and women; robbed one or
two OF money; destroyed their property !;
drove them from their homes, some OF them
half naked, and formed thirteen Of them into
one party on the road to West Virginia and
ordered them to leave on penalty OF death II
they returned. These Outrages have not
disturbed in the sill ,test degree the officials
~ Franklin county. This revival OF ku-
kluxism by Illicit dstiller9 and their friends
IN the mountains OF Franklin has terroriZed
GOOD citizens TO such az extent that they
are afraid to even speak OF the outrages,
much less condemn them. There is no such
thing in Franklin county on the part OF re-
snonsible citizens as sympathy for the en-
forcement of laws, either State or national,
REGARDING the making or selling OF spirits"
The agent expects soon to make another
attempt to capture Gillespie.

Forty seventh COngress-speciaI SEES
sion of the Senate.
WAsHINGTON, Nav 3. 1881.

WASHINGTON, May 3. 1881.
The President laid before the Senate
as unfinished business q resolution for the
election OF officers Of the Senate.
Mr.. Davis, Of West Virginia, then took
the floor with a speech upon the debt ques-
ton between the Nirginias, promising his
remarks with an expression OF regret that
The speeches made by the Senators from
Virginia and Ohio (Mahone and Sherman)
should have compelled him to discuss in
| this chamber what he considered TO be
| purely local matter. The debt question in
West Virginia had never been made po-
| ltical one. and he regretted that the Repub-
lIcan senators should make statements re-
| fecting upon the action OF the Democrats
Of that State on that question.
Little or nothing had been done looking
to the adjustment OF The debt question be.
tween Virginia and West Virginia until
1871. In The early part OF that gear the Le-
gislature OF West Virginia had upon his
motion agreed TO resolution for the APP
pointment OF commission TO treat uDon
that subject. Those commi. sioners had pro.
ceeded to Richmond, but had met nobody
with whom TO treat. Since that time no.
thing had been done, TO the best OF his
know ledge, by either Stale officially with
reference TO the veXed debt question.
In 1871 Virginia had passed what was
! known A. the "fundng BILL" which had
arbitrarily set aside two thirds OF the debt
Of the old State and one third TO The new
state. The Governors Of Virginia bad
uniformly since the passage OF that act held
thar they bad no power TO answer the calls
of West Virginia for the settlement OF the
debt question.
The commissioners appointed BY the State
Of West Virginia had reported the follow
Ing facts: That nine tenths OF the improve
menis for which the debt had been created
had been located within the State OF Nir-
ginia; that Virginia had contained 4l,00C
SQUARE miles, West Virginia but 10000
that at the time OF the separation Virgins
contained population OF 1,l22, 600, West
Virginia, 374, COOLIES than one fourth
thai the taxable property in Virginia hac
amounted to $4,000 600. in West Virginia tC
but SEA-, O0O-less than one sixth. In view
OF these facts, could it be cOntended thai
West Virginia was responsible for one thirC
of the debt? Continuing, he said thai
while the whole debt OF the Virginias wa:
large, it was not very considerably less thar
twenty dollars per cdpitq, while the debt OF
The United States was double that. He pre-
dicted that Virginia, with her present pros
pertv, could and would pay her debt IL
The future. Both OF the Virginias woult
nav their debts, and he regretted very mucl
that his friend from Massachusetts (Alr
Dawes) should encourage party IN the OLE
state that does not want TO pay the debt a
all.
After a short debate on the question o
the debt of the VirgiriaS, the Senate ad
journed till tomorrow.
