THOSE WHO ARE SUPPOSED TO
KNOW SAY THE PRESIDENT
HAS MADE UP HIS MIND
To Convene Congress About Nov. 11th
1.-The Main Purpose is to Pass the
Election Bill-.And the AppOrtiOn.
ment Bill.
[BY United Press. 1


WASHINGTON, Oct. ia large mum
ber of political gossips in Washington
are of the opinion that the President
will call an extra session of Congress.
While it is known that the Republican
leaders are not of one mind on the extra
session question, it is believed by many
of the men who are supposed to know
what is going on, that the President
has already made up his mind
to issue a proclamation before the
Congressional elections, convening Con
gress about November 1st. 1t is said
that a number Of conferences have ia
ken place between Republican Senators
on the subject, and that it has been
talked OF in cabinet meetings. At
these discussions the majority ct those
IN attendance were in its favor, so re
port says, of convening Congress at an
early day. Should an extra session be
called, its main purpose will be the pas
sage of the election bill and the Con-
gressional apportionment bill.

THE EIGHTH DISTRICT.
MaJ. VIM. A. Graham will Support
CoWles---Dr. Sanderlin Believes that
COWles will be Elected.

Especial Cor. STATE CHRoNICLE.1
RALEIGH, N. c., Oct. 13.-I met Maj.
VIM. A. Graham last Friday. the day I
spoke at Lincolnton, and he authorized
me to publish statement of his posi-
tlon in the present campaign in the fol-
lowing words written by himself 81 am
not an independent candidate for Con-
gress and do not intend to be. / shall
vote for Col. Cowles and the Democratic
ticket throughout, and think the inter
ests of the country demand that the con-
troll Of tho affairs of the State and nation
should be in the hands of the Democratic
party
There is no better citizen nor purer
patriot than Maj. William A. Graham,
and it gives me pleasure as his friend
Of many years standing, to be the
medium through whom his statements
reaches your columns for full informa-
tion to all whom it may concern. Hav
ing recently canvassed a good portion
| of Cowles district, l am convinced that
the contest is really between him and
York, and votes cast for any other can
didates will surely result only in help
ing to beat Cowles and elect York, who
is to be brought out shortly before the
election. The condition of things in
Cowles' district has changed very much
for the better, and Cowles is going to
be elected, provided the Democrats in
that district will stand true to their col
ors, and this now think they are going
to do. 1t is we'll, however, to take moth
ing for granted, but let every man work,
and work hard from now until the day
of election to secure the success of our
whole ticket, State, Congressional and
county. Yours truly,
G. W. SANDERLIN.
| We are glad to publish the above.
Without hearing anything direct from
MAJ. GRAHAM, we have known all along
that the report that he would run u, AZ
independent or refuse to support Col.
CowLEs did him gross injustice. He is
Democrat and man of honor. DR.
SANDERLIN's letter has the right ring anC
will do good. d.-ED1ToR.

To- day he delivered most powerful
and admirable speech of one and three

A mounted escort of two hundred

speech, and frequently an enthusiast
would call out "God bless Zeb. Vancep
The people love Zeb. Vance, and they
showed it to-day when hundreds march

THAT DEPOT.
$50 Many Obstacles that the Matter
will be Delayed''--D Delay All Around
--And "a Small Probability of Ever
Getting There.

Ofcourse everybody knows that every
body is very anxious that Raleigh should
have new union depot. In fact some
thing has been said about this matter
for two or three times perhaps more
times than that. And there have been
meetings Of railroad magnates, and
there have been conferences, and there
have been official promises and nearly
everything else, and the people have
beer led to believe that they would
e., joy d~ tcnefts OF that much-needed
structure 81 ~ a1r'v day
Well, theg iast woa That al.
Everybody 0aS been expecting % hear
tnat the contract for the new jer0t
woald be let out soon, but it won't.
There is not even plan before the com
mittee which is acceptable, or has been
finally accepted.
1t took that committee a whole wear
to get plan it didn't like, and when it
comes to getting one they do like, there's
no telling, on this earth, how long it will
take them.
Some gentlemen were talking together
Of that committee was read. After the
reading Of the letter, q citizen fairly
whooped with disgust, and his indigna-
ton made him wicked. 1t made him
say such words as =! =! -? =. and
all that sort of thing.
The CHRoICLE doesn't say such words
as these, but at this particular time it
lifted its hat and returned t proundest
thanks to the man who proved 50 nearly
equal to doing the situation justice.
That letter was in rely to one written
| to the railroad men asking for certain
information. The city wants to proceed
with street paving operations, and was
on the verge of paz ng the street leading
| to that place where it has been generally
supposed the depot would be built, and
then on the freight depot. But just to
see how this would do, the street com
mittee had a letter written inquiring
about the probabilities, &C., Of the
new depot"
The reply was to the effect that the
railroads intended to build new depot,
but there were SO many obstacles to the
present plan, &C., &C., that the matter
would be delayed, &c, &c. That vii
delay the street paving, and that vii
delay something else, and there will b.
an epidemic Of delay hereabouts.
Well, the people Of this town and sec
ton have stood the war; they have stoo(
reconstruction; they have stood radical
ism; they stood cyclone once and al
earthquake another time; and they hav
stood the Hhooping cough and tn
measles, and have stood the grip;
and the CHRONICLE supposes that th
people of this town CAN stand that oil
hulk Of depot down yonder for anotl
er decade; and if they wont do anythin
to remedy the matter, they ought
HAVE TO endure it. That's all.

ANCIENT BONES FOUND.

The skeleton of Man Found in an
Attic.
New YORK, Aug. 1O.-The discovery of the
skeleton of man in the darkest corner of
the attic of No, 5 st. Marks place created
comment and some sensational rumors in
the neighborhood yesterday. The house is
a three story brick building, dating back
to the first decade of the century. On
Monday morning Mr.. Southland, dealer
in secondhand building materials, set
gang of men to work tearing it down.
James Kane, who had been rummaging in
the attic, picked up human bone. He
called the other workmen, and they dragged
out an old and time-stained champagne
basket. filed with bones thrown in loosely
and half wrapped in yellow copy
quirer of February %, 1887. The
skull was there and bore evidence of the
surgeons saw in a hole three inches across
cut on the right side. There was found in
the attic = dozen or more of the long sand
bags, covered with bed-ticking, which are
used by surgeons in the setting of fractures.
1t is probable that the bones have lain in
the attic since 1887, when the Doctor tum-
bled them into the basket and forgot all
about them. Policeman Kilcline had the
bones taken to the morgue, where they now
await the next consignment to potter's
field.

HURLED DOWN A PRECIPICE.

The Mangled Body of q Woman Found at
Niagara.
New York. Aug. 1O.-The Herald's Nj.
agara Falls special says: 1.-TWO Rochester
detectives, accompanied by Mrs. Quigley,
wife of Chas. Quigley, arrived here this
morning. The detectives notified the au-
thorities they were in quest of the body of
woman supposed to have been murdered
July %, by her husband.
The woman was accused by her husbands
sister and had come to point out the spot
where the crime was committed. The
party proceeded toward the whirlpool and
when about 200 yards below the elevator
leading to the rapids, the woman exolaim-
ed: "There is the spot. Under that
preoipice lies the body of Arthur
Days wife, The officers, after an
hours hard climbing, reached the spot
indicated where the body of the unfortu-
nate woman was found mangled on the
rocks. From what few particulars are OBJ
tainable it appears that Day had commit
ted the crime, and is charged with having
hurled his first wife down precipice. It
appears wife No. became acquainted with
this fact and notified the police.
