a few minutes after IL o'clock Hon. John S.
Barbour, chairman OF the state committee, ap-

greeting, called the convention to order. In
his remarks he alluded In complimentary
terms to President Cleveland and his admins

ingly of the prospects of success of the demo-
cratic party OF the state in the present campaign

action.

concluded by announcing that the convention

RICHMOND, July 29.-As the hour of noon
arrived, delegates, wearied with the work of
last nights numerous caucuses, slowly found
the seats allotted to them in the theater. The
work of last night and this morning has made
little change In the situation as it stood twenty
four hours ago. Lee is still far in the lead of
all other candidates, and his friends clai n an
easy victory. They claim the entire vote of the
fragments Of delegations. They also claim the
substantially solid support of the delegations

admit weakness only in the southwest, though
even In that section they say they are as well
SITUATED as are the friends OF OtEei candidates,
since all efforts to concentrate the southwest
upon candidate of its own have 81 nally failed.
The he, effort fort t" unite the southwest upon ex.
commander of the StOneaa brigade, seems to
have failed, and the southwest Is at sea as to
candidates.

PARsoN MASSEY ACTIVE.
The old readjuster element, represented by
Massey and Fulkerson, is exacting and mena-
cling. Mr.. Massey has been unceasing in his
on Monday, and though he is listened to, he
has made no impression upon the sentiment
OF the convention. The element which he rep
resents and the delegates from the heavy negro
districts, who apprehend ignoring OF all their
claims are the sources of threatened trouble
which may seriously mar the work of the con-
ventiOn.
NO NoMINATIoN PROBABLE TODAY.
A nomination to-day is improbable. The
platform will be adopted before the balloting
begins. Lees opponents are confident that they
can prevent a nomination on the first ballot,
and believe that prolonged struggle will de-
efat him. 1t may be assumed on a certain re-
suit that Staples can be nominated if he will
yield to the pressure upon him that is hourly
increasing.
