piled that Mr.. Wise had said the same
thing some years ago and soon after was
defeated for Governor by $4,000 majority.
Continuing, the Senator said that he
went 10 Chicago Tor the purpose Of try

hone called upon him there, and that he
had returned the call here He said the
anti.Mahone delegates at Chicago had
first elected him the Virginia member of
the National Republican Committee. but
subsequently reversed their action and
chose Mr.. Brady. The fact, he said, that
the National Republican Convention adj
mitted the Malone delegates at large
showed that the convention recognized
the regular Republican organization in
Virginia, and would recognize the cleo.
toral ticket appointed by that organiza-
ton, and that that ticket would
be endorsed by the Republican Con
gressional Convention to be held this
summer and fall. Revertng to Mr.. Wise,
he said he would be prepared to meet Mr.
Wise on the stump four weeks hence,
and il such meeting should take place,
he would guarantee to prove that MIR.
Wise has been doing his political trading
upon such capital as Is afforded by his
name, and not upon that which is in
trinsically his own. He also says that
no matter how much Mr.. Wise may have
desired to re-establish friendly relati ions
with General Malone, be Is satisfied that
the General neither wants nor will have
anything further to do either with him
or MIR. Brady, though the General Ia per-
fectly willing TO be on good terms with
