VIRGINIA DAY.
Mr.. HARRISON SEES MAHOEE'S MEN.
The Machine Of Virginia Anxious for His
Appointment.
HR. CRAIG'S BONBASTIC ADDRESS.
Mr.. Harrison Proves Himself "An Attentive
Listener" as Usual.

IND ANNAPOLIS, IND, January 12.-
This was Virginia day with the President
elect, his principal visitors being the large
delegation Of prominent Republicans from
the ten Congressional districts of Virginia
who came to urge the appointment of
General William Malone to a place in the
Cabinet. The delegation came az dee
CATION appointed by the Repub-
lican Committee, of ViTginisn at
its last meeting on December -, to
convey to President-elect Harrison certain
resolutions adopted at that meeting in the
interest of the appointment of General
Malone. They also brought q memorial
signed By the Republican memhers-elect
of the Virginia Legislature 10 the same
effect. 1t was two o'clock when they
reached the Harrison residence. General
HarrisOn received them in the back p3r-
lor. Judge Waddell introduced the mem
bers and Colonel Craig presented the reso-
lutions. 10 his address to the President
elect, Mr.. Craig said they came by author
ity and appointment of the Repub-
lican party Of Virginia and for
the best interests Of that party
not as advocates of the personal claims Of
any man. That they asked the appoint
ment Of Gen. Malone to the cabinet be-
cause that was the almost unanimous de-
sire of the party in Virginia, and because
it would insure Republican success, thereby
invigOrating the Republicans and striking
terror to their opponents. That if there was
cabinet Office given to the Southern States,
Virginia should have it by reason of her
past prominent placs in the Union and of her
present position as the foremost State OF
the South.
DR.. Webb ther presented the memorial
Of the Republican members-elect Of the
Virginia Legislature. His remarks COW
cred much the same ground as Colonel
Crsig's.
Gen. Harrifon was
AN ATTENTIVE LISTENER
to all that was said and after cordially
welcoming the visitors to his home and
expressing his pleasure at MEETING them
he briefly stated in substance that~the
matter presented should receive his careful
consideration.
1t cannot be learned from any of the
visitors that the President-elect dropped q
single word of any Significance as bearing
on the object Of their visit.
