that he wanted to get thirty days leave without

He was told that II he had any good reason for

Gov. Cameron, Of Virginia. has written a letter

be controlled by the machine. This is direct shot
at Malone, and has created considerable excite
ment at Petersburg.
Richmond. Va, special to the Baltimore Sun
says: "The effect OF the movement begun Monday
homes methods will be felt in this campaign A
systematic fight was made by the Cameron faction
at Mondays meetings In ali the congressional dis
trcts to select delegates to the republican conven
tons to be held on the 29th instant. With all Of
the party machinery under his CONTROL it is proba-
BILE that Malone secured enough delegates in the

nate his candidates, Libby and Brady. The light,
however, Will be renewed in the convention, and
the result may yet be unfavorable to these two as

thoroughly in earnest in this fight, and show de-
termination to prosecute ii TO the end. The demo-

that the present discord in Mahone'S ranks will re-
