RICHMOND, VA, August SIT Is
stated by Mahoneite leaders that State
Senator Samuel II. Newberry O. Bland,
who wss one of the prominent members
of the quartet of Senators who lett Ma
hone at the session of 1882 and returned
to the Democrats, will support Malone
this year. Dir NewbeFry acquired con-
siderable notoriety by his bold and de-
fiant attitude toward Malone at that ses
sion of the Legislature. He denounced
him in the severest terms, and declared
his determination never again to wear
the collar of the political tyrant. At the
session of 1882 Mr.. Newberry left the
Mehone caucus and declared his inten-
ton never to re-enter II. Riddleberger
was present OH that oeca sion: An at
tempt was made by some Of Aahone' S
friends to prevent Newberry from pass
ing out of the door. Newberry cried,
This way, freemeni' and dashed out Of
the caucus-room, followed by several Re-
adiuster members. Newberfy was the
author of the resolution passed by the
last Democratic Legislature asking Ma
hone to resign his seat in the United
States Senate. Tie Democrats say that
even if this report is true the loss OF
Newberry will be offset by the detection
of several prominent Mahoneites in kew-
berry's district.
