about 200 delegates will participate
il The proceedings of the convention.
These delegates were elected some
time ago, and with scarcely an eX-
ception are expected TO east their
votes for Paul g. Edmunds.
There is not Il doubt but that he
will be the candidate nominated by
the convention. No other is i'll the
field. For Il time Major Gaines was
thought to be formidable candidate
and it was thought he would receive
the support of the Farmers Alliance,
but the movement fell through and
the jor retired.

ABOUT THE HOTELS.

Every hotel in the city tdrned away
people last night. The city is crowded
with strangers, and what to do with
them is becoming a serious question.
\ number of visitors set up last night
in the hotel corridors and snatched Il
wink or two of sleep. OF course the
dentists convention had something
TO do with this state of affairs, and
also the lateness of the train from the
West. 1t missed connection with the
Shenandoah Wiley train, ard all
passengers going north by that route
had to sperd the night ir(the city
But this crowded condiE zion of the
hotels is by no means IAN unusual
thing. People having jspare rooms to
rent might take the c9e from this and
advertise then in jTHE TIMES. 1t
