THE TERRA GOTTA AFFRAY.
Michael Claffy Fined $50 for Assaulting
George Oswald.

The case of Michael Claffy who was arrested
for assaulting George Oswald at Terra Gotta a
week ago last Sunday (as published in The
STAR at the time), was tried in the Police Court
this afternoon. The assault was committed with
q Ratchet
The defendant admitted the assault, but
thought he was justified in what ne did. He
said that he was at work at the time when the
defendant fired pistol shot. "Oh, Nike" his
(C.'s) wife cried, and thinking that Oswald had
shot, or attempted to shoot her, he ran with
the Ratchet in his hand and struck Oswald on
the head
Messrs. Campbell Darlington and John A.
Moss argued the case for Claffey and referred
to the fact that the wife and little ones of the
defendant would have to suffer if he was sent
to prison.
THE SENTENCE.
The judge referred to the testimony and said
that the defendant had time to cool down after
the shots were fred and that fact made the as
sault without justification. The Judge said he
recognized the fact the defendant was not an
ordinary criminal, and after mentioning the
fact Of the defendants wife and little ones hav-
ing been about the court several days anxious
as to the result of the trial of the husband and
father the court imposed fine of $50 or ninety
days In jail. The fine was paid.

MALONE CONFIDENT.
Another Republican Conference at His
House Last Night.

Special Dispatch TO THE EVENING Stan.
PErERsBURa, Va, Sept. 5.-The republican
conference was in session at Gen. Malone 8
residence again last night and an adjournment
was not had unit, an early hour this
morning. The list Of speakers who are
to canvass tho state is . very long
one, and il was not completed
until this morning just before adjournment.
The principal speaking OF the canvass will be
done in the counties on court days, as the
county courts are always largely attended by
Malone has completed his schedule Of places
and time where he will speak during the
canvass. His first speech of the campaign
will be made in southwest Virginia and
not in Petersburg as first intended. He pro-
poses to make the fight for governor the effort
of his political career and from now until the
day of election will allow no grass to grow
under his feet.
HE Is IN EXCELLENT SPIRITS
aad feels confident that he will defeat the dem
ocratic candidate for governor, Capt. Phil
Mckinney. Mahone's followers say that a large
number Of confederate soldiers will support him
for governor on account of their love for him
as a confederate general. Yesterday and
again today Gen. Malone gave the members OF
the conference fine dinner, which was served
at his residence on Market street. To
versed fully and frankly on the political situa-
ton in the state, and from what he said he APP
pears to believe that
THE OUTLOOK Is VERY ENCOURAGING
for republican success next fall. The commit
tee of ten on plan of organization, appointed at
the republican state convention held at Nor
folk, were in session at Gen. Mahone's until
late hour last night discussing the ques-
ton whether or not any changes should be
made In the present plan OF organization.
After full and free discussion Of the question
it was decided to make some few changes, but
these have not been made public.
JOHN M. LANasToN,
who has publicly signifed his intention of sup
porting Malone for governor, arrived here last
night and today he has talked
freely with his friends in regard to
public meeting of Langston's supporters will
be held in few days, before which he will de-
liver an address. 1t is understood that before
Langston came out in print that he would
support Malone for governor, he was
in receipt Of letters from some of the most
prominent republicans in the country, includ-
ing members of the national committee, that he
should not allow his feeling toward Malone
for not supporting him for Congress
from this district to deter him from support
ing the republican state ticket, as there was
too much involved for him to do so.
Langston says that he thinks the state
debt question will be an important action in
this campaign, and that it should be fully
explained, as it was not exactly under
stood by the colored people in
the state, many of whom are of
to pay any part of the debt, inasmuch as they
were in slavery at the time il was contracted

THE COLORED HIGH SCHOOL.
More Money Will Be Asked for the New
Building.

There will be no colored high school building
erected under the current appropriation. Con-
gress provided 100000 for site and building,
and S25, 900 has been expended for a site, ON NJ
street between LIST and I'd northwest
The remaining $4,000, it is found, is far too
small a sum to construct building such as the
size and rate of growth Of the high school re-
quires.
Plans have been made in the Office of the in
spector of buildings for the new building and
have been approved by the District Commits
sioners.
The plans, however, call for an outlay of
csc, 900 and it is claimed that to build smaller
structure would be an expensive thing to the
District as it would soon have to be replaced or
enlarged.
Congress will be asked to add s5o, 900 to the
money now in hand, and meanwhile the mat
ter will be held in allegiance
