County Commissioners, Senator Kinkad and
Representative Chatticld should remember

ted TO the General.

A Compromise Plan Adopted and submit
ted TO the General.
WASHINGTON, May 29.-The conference
Of the anti-Mahone Virginia Republicans
this morning wes we'll attended.
At a preliminary meeting held last
night speeches were made, but no definite
action wss taken. About $50 Virginians
attended the meeting to-day. Speeches
we're made by ex-senator Riddleberger,
General Greener, o. D. Clark, Of Peters
burg, and others. The speakers
said that they were willing TO compromise
and form and alliance with Gen. Malone,
but they were opposed TO the recognition
given t. Malone by this administration to
the exclusion of other Republican leaders
in Virginia. These views we're finally form
ulated in an address and committed to
writing. A proposition was made that the
address be submitted to Mr.. Malone be-
fore it was presented to the President.
This was debated at some length and was
finally agreed to.
Shortly before noon an address was sent
to Gen. Malone. II contained a PROPOSE
ton that the State Republican Committee
appoint two representatives to meet two
representatives of the anti-Mahone faction,
and that these four persons select fifth to
act with them. This committee of five is
to be empowered to arrange for meetings
TO a State convention. The Joint com
mittee is 70 have charge of the hall Of
the convention, name the person who
shall call the convention together, and
have charge of all the details OF the scheme
for bringing together the two Republican
factions.

Miss Ella Baker, one of the victims de-
tailed the circumstances of the robbery and
identified Lewis Tasker and the two Sulli-

roughly taken to the barn, twice hung up
to a heam and a lighted candle
placed to his fingers and toes to compel
him TO tell the supposed hiding place OF

bers of that section of the party, met at

The President was unable to hear them
to-day, but said he would meet them at
a future day. He said he would be glad
to have copy of the proposition made to
the Malone committee, and the committee
promised to send it to him. After each
member Of the delegation had been pre-
sented to the President they retired and
returned TO the Ebbitt House, where they

Work on the Scale To-day.
PITTsBURe, May 29.-For the first time
in the fifteen years existence of the Anal
gamated Association of Iron and Steel
Workers, there will be no conference this
year with the manufacturers on the an
nual wage scale. The manufacturers as
sOciation disbanded last year, and in reply
to notice from President Weihe, of the
Amalgamated Association, announcing
that the workers would be ready to confer
with the manufacturers in regard TO the
scale, the former secretary Of the manufae-
turers' association, Joseph D. Weeks, re-
piled that there was no way by which
they could get a committee to represent
the association of manufacturers of iron,
steel and nails as it was not now in exist
ence.
President Weihe appointed the Scale
Committe of the Amalgamated Association
to-day. 1t will meet tomorrow and con-
slider the scale suggestions made up by the
different lodges in the organization. This
work will require several days, but the
committee expects to have the scale reaoy
fer presentation to the ..anual convention,
which meets in this city next Tuesday.
The workmen do not anticipate any
trouble, Notwithstanding the manufactur-
ers will not confer with them. None of
them will venture prediction as to what
demand they will make, but all agree that
it can be safely stated that the present
scale, with some slight notifications, will
be presented.

VA, May 80. Samuel Chester Hsmmett
the oldest son of W. E. Hammett, died
here this evening, aged about eighteen
years, having been sufferer almost all
his life from a malady which seemed to
battle the skill of all the best physicians.
In fact, none of them pretended to under
stand his complaint Although emaciated
to the last degree, his feet which seemed to
be the principal seat of his disease, were
swollen and distorted to enormous size
and would weigh many pounds. He had
also been entirely blind for some time be-
fore his death. Although almost entirely
helpless for the past two years, be bore
his terrible suffering with accomplishing
patience and heroic fortitude, and re-
tanned his mental faculties unimpaired
until death put an end to his suffering.
