RICHMOND VA, Sept. 27.-The politi-
cal situation in Virginia grows more
interesting and exciting as the day of
election draws near. Blaine's views upon
Virginia, expressed some days since, had.'a
stirring effect, whether or not he SO intend
ed, and the Malone negroes here have begun
on him and are doing all they can to be-
little him and his views. A number of
Republicans who began acting with Ma
hoDe observed more caution in this dis
trict. John Amber Smith, a Republican
Malone candidate for Congress, when
asked whether he was a Blaine or al
Arthur man declined to answer, and to-
night it is rumored that Smith is to be
Withdrawn by Malone and a strong
Arthur man put in his place. 1t is stated
on high authority that a prominent
colored Republican from Washington will
soon stump the State with Blaine. 1t is
understood that Fred. Douglass is the
party, and he warns his race that il they
affiliate with Malone they need expect no
sympathy from the true Republican party,
which be predicts will be dominant in this
country within a year. Whether or not
| these reports are well grounded, certain it
| is thst Malone is using diligence to get
only stalwart candidates, and is assiduous-
" wedding ont all the weakened ones.
He has evinced the determination to draw
a line sharply between Blaine and Arthur
sympathizers, and all of the former will
be forced to retire. The Fourth District
is supposed to be tainted with Blaineism,
which was not offensive to Malone until
Blaine recently so unequivocally declared
himself against the Coalition party in
Virginia. In the meantime the straight
out Republican party in this State is gain
ing accessiOns and perfecting its organ
i~zation. Whether or not they will be
strong enough to elect their ticket is q
matter for conjecture, but the fact thai
there are aspirants for straight-out nomi.
nations in all the districts would seem tC
indicate that they are encouraged, with
strong hopes of success. Blaine is I'M
doubtedly strong in Virginia. He has
intimated that he will gain many acces
sions to his ranks and give Malone mucl
trouble. 1t is certain that the Readjustel
leader is more disturbed by this BLAINE
apparition than by anything which has ye
come in his way.
Enfounded Rumoss.
New YORK, Sept. 27.-The World says
By way Of ascertaining what basis, if any
there might be for certain tales which hav
been set forth of late with a tremendou
rubadub in two or three local newspapers
a reporter Of the World yesterday fount
Jay Gould in his Office and interviewet
him on the subject of his alleged attemp
to buy up the Associated Press.
Mr.. Gould, said the reporter, it is STATED
in sundry quarters that you have been try
ing to purchase the New York Journal o
Commerce. Have you any objection tt
say whether it is so or not?
1t is ridiculous, answered Mr.. Gould
The only grain of truth in the story il
that a gentleman closely connected will
the Journal of Commerce, in fact, one o
its editors, sought an introduction to nj
at a private house, where we both hap
pened to be. and stated that he was think
ing of making up a syndicate to purchast
the Journal Of Commerce, and wanted
to know if I would go into the operation
How did you receive the proposition?
I naturally asked the editor to let m,
have q copy of the trial balance Of tn
concern, that I might see what its ~fnaucia
position was. The trial balance was neve,
sent to me. This is the whole story of my
attempt to purchase the Journal of Com
merce, and this is as near as l ever came O.
am likely to come, to being the owner O
that great journal.
Is there any more truth in the stor,
which seems to be flying about in a lively
manner that you called on Mr.. Jones O.
the Times and offered him in vain a millio,
and a half dollars for 81 shares in tina
paper?
There is, If possible, rather less truth il
that legend. I have had no financial deal
ings of any kind with Mr.. Jones of tn,
Times.
