VIRGINIA REPUBLICANS.
Meeting of the State Committee
Call for q Liberal Conven-
ton Agreed Upon.
by Telegraph to tho Herald
RICHMOND, juno 28, 1881.

RICHMOND, juno 25, 1851
The session of the Republican State
Committed lasted the entire day, and the
proceedings were at times intensely eS-
citing. Both the contonding factions
were present in full force headed by their
respective leaders, ex-senator Jno. Il.
Lewis and Gen. Wm. q. Wickham. The
press was excluded and only q few priv
ilegod persons were admitted to the
floor. Lewis, as chairman, called the
meeting to order, and after Il few OK
planatory remarks vacated the chair
lie ignored the action Of the Wickham
faction of week ago in doposing him
and electlng Wickham in his stead, and
stated that IL was his intention to resign
whenever full meeting of the commit
tee could be had. Lewis then called Mr..
Everett w. Early leading Republican,
who favors the Malone political pro-
gramme, TO the chair. The Wickham
faction by participating in the proceed
ings thus taotily recognized Lewis ~ the
Chairman, notwithstanding the fact that
they had dcposcd him on Tuesday last aud
elected Wickham IN his stead. This was
the first victory for Lewis, Malone ~
Co. The best portion Of the day was
consumed with long speeches, some
OF them very windy, and only few eff
fectual. WiclSham and Lewis, who are
personally very friendly, though oppos-
ed politically, had long and quiet con-
sultation, during which they talked the
whole situation over, hut without nrriv-
Ing at any satisfactory understanding
A conference committee OF three from
ench faction resulted similarly report
iur that it was unable TO agree upon any
plan that would adjust or readjust tho
nendlng difficulties, lnnumorablc prop
oeItions were made and rejected, and late
i'm the evening matters camc to q crisis.
