acting, while Miss Coggswell as Anne

Travel on Thursday.
Since the tracks OF the Manchester
Railway and Improvement Company
have been connected with those OF the
City railway at Fourteenth and Main
part OF the cars on the former road are
being run over the City railway tracks
up Main to Ninth. thence to and up
Broad. and rice versa. 1t looked odd
yesterday to see the small cars
being drawn on Main street by
mules. 1t was the first time
that any other than an electric car had
been seen on this thoroughfare since the
the introduction of electricity on tho
Main street line. For the present part
Of the cars of the Marshall-street road
are being run on Broad and Main, and
the Others on the Marshall-street route.
A first-rate service WAS being given on
the Southside electric road yesterday.
The cars ran with great regularity. were
almost entirely noiseless, and received
liberal patronage. Though their color
is not attractive to the eye the cars are
the incest and most comfortably ar
ranged that have ever been seen IN
Richmond. A great many people
rode on them to Manchester and
Forest Hill Park. While at the park n
Richmond lady in striking her arm
against a bush lost her bracelet and her
watch and chain, also. A somewhat
lengthy search was made, and when all
hope was about to be abandoned the valu-
abies were found and none OF
them were injured. Several of
the officers OF the company
we're on the grounds during the after
noon and took pleasure in showing the
visitors around, and gave them oil a
hearty welcome. The motormen on this
road have received orders TO stop their
cars whenever they see horse ahead OF
them that seems at all timid. Especial
care is being taken to prevent accidents
on the bridge, where horses are most
likely to become frightened.
An officer of the Union Passenger
Company in conversation with Dis
patch reporter last night said that about
5000 passengers were carried by that
company on Thursday. He explained
that in stating Thursday night that the
number was 200 he only meant to refer
to the business done after 3 p. NJ. The
service on this road yesterday was not a
all satisfactory. The intervals between
ear. were at times at least twenty-five ol
thirty minutes, possibly longer.

The Cerman-day has passed by,

celebrated in such manner as may seem
fitting to them. This was also adopted
THE LIBERIAN MINISTER.

THE LIBERTAN MINISTER
The ex.Minister TO Liberia, John II.
Smyth, was introduced TO the conven-
ton. There was some discussion as 10

gates calling him Smith and the remain,
der Smith with the accent on the ]:
Smytb said il was entirely too late IN
the day (4:50 p. NJ to make speech.
lie started to leave the platform, but the
delegates wouldn't have it that way.
Seeing that he was compelled to speak
Smyth began by saying that he enjoyed
the distinction, if any there was, OF
having been born in Richmond. Ihe
movement set on foot was really Color
ed Thanksgiving day, as the whites IN no
part OF the country had any inter
est whatever in it. Had God not hard
ened the hearts Of the southern people.
and made them deaf to the overtures OF
Lincoln, tho Liberation OF the slaves
would have been deferred for many
years. So really the southern people
were to be thanked to certain extent
for the freedom of the black.
COLD REPUBLICANS.
The speaker complained OF coldness
on the part of white Republicans who
formed clubs of which no negroes could
be member. He alluded TO lOO,OOO
negro voters being "offered on the altar
of peace" in Mississippi, to drown the
old cry of negro domination.
The colored man had been faithful IN
the past and he would pledge his best
efforts for the country's good in the fu-
ture.
The negroes OF the United States were
said to be worth 1868, 900, 900, one hall
of which is held by the colored people
of the South. They are carrying on
banks which will not fail, for colored
men are conducting them. The negro
would not only equal the white, but
would go beyond him.
THE COMMITTEES PARADED.
The Executive and General Committee
were drawn up on the front OF the stage
and the Chairman delivered an eulogy on
them and the work they had done
A vote of thanks was rendered the
committees by giving them three cheers.
The newspapers, railroads, police, city
authorities, exposition officials, and
others were thanked for courtesies ex-
tended.
Delegate Downing offered set OF
resolutions in regard to the hopes and
intentions of negro citizens. There was
some reference to religion, which was
strenuously objected to by Rev. Splller.
The resolution was read second time
and the objection withdrawn. 1t was
then adopted.
A North Carolina man got the floor
and spoke until 5:45, when the conyen-
tion Adjourned. =,
Shortly before adjournment a card
was read from John L. Jones, OF Hen
rico, inviting negroes to locate IN that
county.
