THE VIRGINIA DEMOCRATS.

The Virginia Democratic Sta ate
Committee met i'll Richmond
Wednesday, and after hearingre-
ports from the various sections
of the State determined that the
best policy for the party to p pr7
sue in the present campaign was
to leave. to the local organi ga
tons the question Of nomi ha-
lions of legislative candidates.
The meeting was presided oyer
by the chairman, Hon. J. Taylor
Ellyson. Each of the ten dis
tricts in the State was represent
ted except the sixth. All five of
the members from that dist bet
were absent. Senator Daniel
was expected, but did not come,
being prevented from doing; so
by business. Among those pres
ent who were not members of the
committee were Governor Nc
Kinney, congressman w. A.
Jones, of the first and James E.
Epps, of the second district. The
Governor addressed the commit
tee briefly. He said that the
democratic party in Virginia is
in first-rate condition, and the
outlook was never better.
However earnest may be the
disciples Of Malone in distribut-
ing his circulars and however
well marshalled may be the Re
publican forces of Virginia,
Democracy will hold its own and
be felt in the coming elections.
The Democrats and Alliance in
this State are principally united.
1t is Democracy first, Allia nee

TRADE REVIEW.
The Condition of Business is More
ENCOURAGING.

r. G. Rum & Co.'s weekly review of
trade says: All the returns of the
condition of business are. encourage
ing. There is no room for doubt
about the improvement in trade.
From nearly every city reported
there comes the same cheering in
formation that business is better and
the prospects brighter. The govern
ment crop report is one of the most
favorable ever issued. 1t is not i'm
possible that some injuries are sus-
tanned since the detailed reports were
forwarded from the different counties
may reduce the yield somewhat be-
low the Indications of the official re-
turns. p
At the South the improvement is
general, especially at Louisville,
Memphis, Savannah and Atlanta,
and at New Orleans trade is more
active, rice being especially strong
and money in good demand. The
enormous receipt, of wheat have de-
pressed the prices, exports continue
large, but the belief is growing that
foreign crops are not quite so short
as has been reported, though short
enough to cause an unprecedented
demand from this country. Thus
the price of wheat has fallen SIC dur
ing the past week, with sales of only
Twenty-Five million bushels.
Corn. declined but little and oats
| only 1 cent. Pork products are
higher, and oil about 5 cents lower.
The great Industries are making
satisfactory progress.
1oI IL
while the shipments of gold from
Europe were not strictly upon an ex-
change basis. The rate of sterling
exchange has fallen to 4,S3X during
the week and exports ofmerchandise
from New York for the past two
weeks have exceeded those of the
same week last year by more than so
per cent, while in imports there APP
pears b decrease Of about 20 per
/ cent.
The Government has paid out over
$40, OOO, 900 for bonds notextended,

same account are expected, though
the treasury is restricting other pay
ments for time as far as possible.
The opening of Germany and Den
mark to American pork productshas
lifted the price of pork so cents per
barrel. With the greatest crops ever
grown and an unprecedented foreign
demand for grain and meats, the
prospects must be considered unusu-
ally encouraging.
