VIRGINIA FINANCES.
Report Of the Debt Commission.
[special to THE WdnLpl


RICHMOND, VA, Sept. 26. Hon. R.
H. Cartlwell and Henry T. Wickham,
members Of the Virginia debt commits
sion, had long talk with the Cover
nor, it is believed, on the subject of
the debt. Mckinney received from the
Olcott committee communication I'm
which was indicated what might be the
general outlines of another proposal
for settlement. The Governor, how
ever. has not thought proper to give
the substance Of the letter to the news
papers. 1t was understood that he
would have conference with the resi-
dent members of the commission with
whom the matter would be discussed.
In the event these gentlemen did not
consider the terms of the letter suffi-
GENTLY encouraging for him to do so,
the executive would not call the com
mission together. The visit to-day tof
Messrs. Cardwell and Wickham,, of
Hanover, the adjoining county, was
probably for the purpose named. Gov
ern6r Mckinney replied to the letter
of the Olcott committee, but if Ne has
received any response to his answer it
was not known to-day at the Capitol.
Second Auditor Ruffih does not expect
to see any settlement on any basis
other than that of the Riddleberger
bill.

entered the army MS a simple private.
He was born in 1880 and became a
cavalry trooper in 1913. He is rich,
elegant, distinguished and as gallant
and adventurous at 81 as lie was at 30.
Since 1913, wherever French troops
have taken the field, Gallifet has been
with them. In Mexico he was shot in
the stomach and left for dead on the
field, 50 terrible was his wound.
Thanks to his iron constitution he
recovered. At Sedan in 1870 as a
General Of brigade he led that superb
charge which drew from William I. the
exclamation, "Ah what brave fell
lows" He begged to be exchanged
when made prisoner promising to re-
enter the ranks as a private, and served
as such to the end Of the war. Gallifet
has commended himself to the love Of
Frenchmen by recognizing the cavalry
and molding it into most formidable
branch of the service. He is member
Of the Council Of War and Inspector
General of the army. He wears the
cross Of the Legion Of Honor and a
number of other decorations.

NEWARK, N. j., September 26.--
Alphonso Herio, an Italian saloon
keeper, celebrated the Feast Of ST.
Rocco in this city with fireworks and
other attractions. While the stand in
front of his house was surrounded by q
crowd, lie set off bomb, which ex-
ploded, killing eleven persons and
wounding thirty. The killed were
Frederick Weiss, Antonio Ghetto,
Michael Anzalona, Pasqnale Bezilina,
Michael O'Neill, Charles Stewart Caro-
line, Frank Miller, Arthur Flynn,
Lizzie Hughes, Lizzie Murphy and
Henry Burgesser.
A big copper casing mortar was used
for the bombs. These were filed with
colored fire and shot into the air, where
they burst, throwing out shower
Of vari-colored sparks. 1t was this
mortar that exploded and caused all
the harm. The bomb casing, is about
five inches in diameter and thirty
inches long. About II P. M. q large
bomb was put in the mortar and light
ed. 1t is supposed that the bomb ex-
ploded in it. There were hundreds Of
men, women and children standing
around watching with great expect
apcy. When it exploded the air was
filed with the shrieks Of the injured
and dying. Many Of the people were
frightfully wounded. Intense confusion
followed.

Lively CAMPAIGN ~ LOUISIANA.
The Louisiana Lottery Figures Very
Prominently.
Especial to Tnr wonLp.l


NEw ORLEANS, La, September 20-
The lottery campaign IN tins State
is becoming decidedly warm. II win
be remembered that some time since,
at an anti-lottery meeting in this city,
the Rev. DR., Palmer, one Of the most
prominent Presbyterian divines In the
South, advocated violence, IN case the
lottery could not be defeated by the
ballot, in its efforts to secure the re-
newal Of its charter. The advice is
now beginning 70 bear fruit. News
has been received from Bobeline, the
parish seat Of Sabine parish, which Is
overwhelmingly anti, and at which
place pro-lottery meeting and barbe-
cue was to be held to-day, that the
people had notified the lottery leaders
Of their determination not to allow the
said meeting to occur. Should the
latter persist. trouble is bound TO fol-
low. 1t il thought, however, that the
lottery advocates, rather than risk q
conflict, will forego the meeting. The
fight between the two factions has be-
come so bitter that personal journal
ism throughout the State is rather the
rule than the exception.
Yesterday an article appeared ii the
Daily States, a pro-lottery paper, COM
menting rather severely on publica-
tons in the new Delta, the chief anti
organ, in regard to the standing Of thes
former on the Blair Educational bill,
in which the lie was given direct to the
Mem Delta. The latter replied III d
double loaded editorial this morning,
signed by John G. Wickliff, editor,
who il will be remembered, was Mr..
Parkerson's lieutenant in the citizens
movement against the Hennessy MUIR
derers, in which he excoriates Mr.. G..
w. Dupree, the editor Of the States. The
hitter in the States this evening replies
in equally forcible language. Here Is
a sample.
John G.. Wickliff, a cross between d
shyster, mendicant and q tramp,
prints this morning personal card in
his paper, called the New Delta, in
which he makes cowardly and lying
attack in his customary style Of rheto-
rio on one Of the editors Of the States
Mr.. Dupree. Wickliff takes especial
pains in his card to assure that he will
neither fight duel with the gentle
man hesingles out to bespatter with
his filthy mouthings, nor engage with
him in a street encounter This tramp's
assumption Of the airs Of gentleman
for the purpose Of evading responsible
ity for the language Of a blackguard,
is positively ludicrous in its presump-
tion and audacity.r Chief Of Police
Caster, fearing trouble would result,
had an affidavit made against them,
and they were arraigned before Re-
corder Bringier, and each put under 4
$3.50 peace bond.

DRuGGED AND ROBBED.
A Strange Woman Causes Much Excite-

Especial 10 THE WoRtp.l

/ WHEELING, WA, September 90
The citizens of Terra Alta, a station on
the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, a short
distance east Of Wheeling, are excited
over very mysterious case. To-day
on the east-bound Chicago express ar
rived woman apparently fifty years
Of age. She was put off by the con
.ductor.
After the train had departed it was
noticed that she appeared tie be in a
bad condition. On the examination
she showed every evidence of having
been drugged. She was unable to tell
her name, residence, or destination.
She had little change in her posses
sion and card, on which was printed
the name, "Mrs. Charles Gassler,
Springfield, ILL.,"
She was well dressed and carried a
lunch basket. To all questions she
simply shakes her head in an absent
way and murmurs, Robbed robbedI' p
She has been taken in charge by
some kind-hearted people, and is now
under medical care. It9is hoped that
the card she carries will afford some
clew to her identity.
