AN UGLY RUnOR
About Humc's Independent Candidacy
Gen. Lees Election Assured Anyhow.
Correspondence OF tho Richmond Di.patch.l

Correspondence OF tho Richmond Dispatch.l
ALEXANDRIA. Va. July &c, 1890.
II il rumored on the streets here that Mr..
Hume's card in the CARTE of q day or two
ago, declining to become candidate
for the Democratic nomination to
Congress from this district ia but
q preliminary move TO announcing him.
self as an independent candidate for the
lower house of Congress. If he does so
the Republicans will put in nomina.
ton Hon. Payk Agnew. the postmaster OF
this place, who was defeated by General
Lee two years ago. They hope to elect Mr..
Agnew this time on account OF the split
Democratic vote. II is said. however, that
even ii Mr.. Hume does run as an
independent candidate General Lee will
be elected, as the Democratic majority in
this section is large enough TO stand two
tickets in the field. and that the extra OPP
position would only have the effect OF
bringing out larger vote.
HUME GETS LEFT.
The outcome Of the affair is looked for
with some anxiety by the party leaders IN
this section.
A number of the friends of Mr.. Hume
have declared that while they would vote
for him were he the regular Democratic
nominee, they will not follow him out of
the party.
SIZZLING FACES.
The faces of the country people coming
into market here this morning were all
wreathed in smiles from the good effects
brought about by the three days Of rain
that ended this morning. They say that
everything looks as bright and fresh as
could be wanted and that plentiful crop
of vegetables will be in the markets IN a
few days.
NEGLECTED WARDS.
Nothing has yet been done by the United
States Government TO improve the condi-
ton of the negroes on the Arlington re-
servation, between this city and George
town. The negroes up TO few years
ago were looked after by the coun.
ty of Alexandria authorities, but
since the withdrawal of the county
funds the negroes have no schools, and
are growing up ignorant and lawless.
Efforts have been from time to time made
to induce Congress TO do something tc
relieve them, but without avail. and they
seem as far of from any assistance now as
they were when first the county refused to
look after their interests.
BRANCH ROAD.
It is rumored here, and the rumor seems
| to have some foundation, that the Alexan'
dria and Fredericksburg Railroad Com
pany are about to build a branch road from
near Fredericksburg to Colonial Beach, or
| the Potomac, about sixty miles below thi:
place, and from there to Piney Point.
The object of the new road is to shorter
| the time taken to travel from Washington
| to Norfolk. 1t now takes about fourteen
| hours and 1t is claimed that the new road
will shorten the time TO about seven Of
| eight.
DESPITE tho cool rain of the past three
| DAYS the weather is very warm, the thor
mometer standing at SO degrees in the
shade.
