Tho mass nesting of the Republicans
of Virginia recently called by tho
meeting in Washington meets to-day in
the Opera House. Whether the attend
ance will be as largo as tho party
leaders claimed is unknown. Certainly
they were disappointed at the small
arrival of delegates last night.
1t was expected that the afternoon
and evening trains would bring in hun
dreds OF Republican delegates, but such
was not the case. The trains came in,
but tho delegates remained behind and
when the last train rolled into the depot
not more than fifty Delegates had ar
rived. Still it is quite probable that q
large number will come this morning.
Lynchburg will send strong delera-
ton as we'll as tho other towns alonr
the line of the Norfolk and Western.
1t is expected that number of pro-
minent speakers will be present, among
them being Senator Higgins, of DoJa-
ware: Col. Parsons is already here, as
also Hon. Wingfeld Scott and G.. e.
Hermans, both of Floyd county.
The meeting will commence about
o'clock this afternoon and will be called
to order by Col. Parsons. Officers will
be elected and the committee of 100
elected, who will have power to appoint
tho executive committees of the differ.
cnt counties.
Col. Ii. G, Parsons, of Natural Bridge,
is at the Ponce do Leon. In CONVERSE
ton with TINES reporter last night he
SAID that he did not anticipate large
mass meeting to-day. There has been
no concerted effort" said he, "to bring
out large attendance. Whatever there
is will be spontaneous, and havo tho
added value Of sincerity and honest pur-
pose The Republican party must have
an organization in Virginia. and its
mombers are bound to declare them
selves FREQ from one mans power"

SITUATION IN CHILL.
The San Francisco Ordered to
Return to Valparaiso.

WASHINGTON, Sept. O.-TSpecial1-
There were no developments in tho
Gillian situation this morning. The
published stories of naval demonstra-
tions to be made in Chilli by our vessels
were received with amusement at the
Navy Department. There are no avail
able vessels in tho Pacific that would
suiiice to make an imposing demonstra-
ton rs to number. Tho San Francisco.
which was on her way northward from
Chill, was communicated with by cable
at Payta, Peru, by the Navy Depart
ment, and ordered to remain there until
receipt of further orders.
During the afternoon Commodore RAM
say was in consultation with Secretary,
Tracy and the result, as announced later
IN the day, was an order for the cruiser
San Francisco, then at Payta, Peru. to
proceed immediately to Callao and
thence to Valparaiso. If necessary fur
Their instructions to govern tho course
OF tho vessel when she arrives at VAL
paraiso will be sent to her when she
touches at Callao.
Secretary Tracy declined absolutely
to give his reason for sending the shin
back to Chilli, and refused to discuss the
case. Acting Secretary Wharton was
pcsougnt 10 make statement of the
actual facts in tho present complica-
lions, or at least to give the public
some assurance that the situation is
not as critical as it is represented to be
in some publications.
Tho acting Secretary, however, did
not feel at liberty to say one word upon
the subject. Still there is reason to be-
iieve that no further overt acts have
been committed by the Gillian Junta,
and that tho return of the San Francisco
to Chilli is simply in pursuance of tho
intention formed several days ago, to
give moral effect to Minister Egan's
position by tho presence Of Admiral
Brown and his flagship at Valparaiso.

SOMETHING In A NAME.
A Stranger Who Tried to Sell Clothing
to tho Wrong Man.

A Stranger Who Tried to Sell Clothing
to tho Wrong Man.
A man giving his name as j. o. Car
roll and hailing from Marion, went to
Joe Franks clothing store Tuesday and
stated that he had lot of clothing
which he would like to pawn for 5000 or
would sell for $50.
Mr. Frank questioned tho man pretty
closely. and found that one box of the
goods had been shipped from Baltimore
10 Vintnn. whore Carroll said no in
tended to open store. the other box
had been shipped to Marion and thence
back to Roanoke. lie said the goods
were billed to him at S42l, and were
then at Nyburg's pawnshop on Railroad
avenue.
From whom did you buy tho goods?"
asked Mr., Frank
From n. Frank & Co., Baltimore"
answered Carroll.
mir. Frank began to open his eyes,
but said nothing to arouse suspicion
II told Carroll to call around next day
and he would buy the goods
In the meantime Mr.. Frank tele-
graphed to his firm. N. Frank & Sons,
baltimore. for advices and stated tho
circumstances.
On receiving the telegram the Balti-
more firm went at once to their at
torneys, who communicated with
Phlegar, Berkely & johnson, this city,
to take steps to recover tho goods.
Yesterday morning Captain Berkeley
went to Mr.. Frank, and after consul
tition decided to attach the goods, and
she writ was served by the constable.
When Carroll called yesterday morn
ing he asked Mr.. Frank what he in
tended to do about tho goods. He was
told they had been attached and asked
If he knew he was trying to sell Frank
Franks own goods as less than half
price. Tho stranger was bewildercd
and said no though. there might be
something in name.
1t developed that Carroll had bought
the goods on four months note, en-
dorsed by his father. who would be tho
real loser. and who was saved by Mr..
Franks action.

BRussELs, Sept. 30.-LSpeciall- Cen
eral Boulanger committed suicide to-
day on the tomb of Madame de Bonnie
main, who died recently in this city.
Madame dc Bonnemain has been known
as the mistress Of the dead general.
She accompanied him to England after
his flight from Franco, and early in
July last she was dangerously i'll in
Brussels, suffering from consumption.
y Paris physician won't expressly to
treat Madame do Bonnemain by the
new system of treatment, consisting in
innoculating the person affected with
germs of phthisis with ogayacol, which
is obtained from creoSote. However. in
spite of the efforts made to save her,
Madame dc Bonnemain died during the
evening of July It.
Madame de Bornemain, at the height
Of General Boulanger's career, two or
three years ago. lived in Rue do Beeri,
Paris, whore She was continually visited
by the general. Spies kept track of
their movements and soon discovered
that tho two persons referred to were
very intimate. Madame Boulanger was
informed Of these facts but refused to
apply for n divorce. 1t was greatly
through Madame do Bonnemain's favor
that General Boulangcr was able to
carry on his political intrIgues, for the
madame had inherited a fortune OF
$1,000, 900, all of which sum She devoted
to the cause of the then popular leader.
To such extent did General Boulanger
carry his infatuation for Madame do
Bonnemain that when tho French gov
crnment determined to arrest him he
could not be persuaded to pose as
martyr before tho French people by
going to jail, prefcrring to fly with his
mistress from Franco to England and
eventually to Brussels, whore they have
both met their death.
General Boulangcr committed sui
eide at about noon He stood alono by
tho grave OF his mistress for some time,
appearing to be deeply affected by sor-
rowful rccollections. The attendant OF
the general who had respectfully re-
manned ut some distance from Madame
do Bonr cmains tomb, su denly heard
a sharp report in that direction. Run
ming to the spot, the attendant found
General Boulanger lying dead upon the
ground, with revolver clencned in his
right hand.
y hasty examination OF tho body
showed that tho dead man had placed
the weapon to his right car and fred
tho fatal shot. Tho affair has caused
great excitement in this city and some
commotion among tho generals fol-
lowers in Paris. Tho police and the
dead mans friends here havo taken
possession of his lodgings and they havo
not yet announced if he left any state
mcnt.
The generals position, financial and
political, has, it is generally admitted,
been getting blacker and blacker of RAJ
cent months. lie had no hopes for the
future and his remaining friends wero
few and becoming colder as tho once IA
nous general dropped moro and moro
out of public notice. There is no doubt
that the general was conscious of these
facts and that they preycd upon his
mind. Coupled to this was tho morbid
love OF infatuation which he had for lis
dead mistress to whom undoubtedly no
was greatly attached, rs evidenced by
his renouncing what might have
been an important political career in
order to fly with her from Fraucc.

Notwiths landing tho hard fight Arson

had won twelve consecutive games.
Chicago has also played strong game,
ard dispite tho earnest endeavors of
tho beaneaters, led them by two
points, provided the protested game
with Pittsburg should be counted in
favor of Chicago, as it undoubtedly
will be.
But yesterday Boston forged ahead.
Tho Hubbites had postponed gamo
with New York and played two games
yesterday, winning both. Chicago
played one game with Cleveland, and
the Spiders compelled Arson to bite
tho dust. Boston now leads the league,
having percentage of .631 to Chica-
COS .621.
There are three games yet to be
played before the season closes.
Chicago ends the season at homo with
Cincinnati. and Boston winds up with
the crippled Philadelphia. Should
