before his departure. eyes, we,ye been
over considerable territory, and kept
pretty continually on the move, but l
do not feel particularly fatigued and am
enjoying excellent health. We found
the various railroads throughout the
State in good condition, and nearly all
OF them making more or less permanent
improvements. There has not been
very great increase in mileage this
year, so far as taxable property
is concerned, owing largely to the fact
that there are quite number OF uncom-
pleted roads, and as they are not sub
jected to taxation until the first OF Jan
uary after completion, they are out OF
the list this year, although they repre-
sent considerable progress and prosperl-
ty. For instance there is the Norfolk
and Western which is now running as
far Us Powhatan, bat now awaiting the
completion OF large tunnel which will
not likely be completed before next
summer. We went over the Terminal
system here to-day, and / was agreeably
surprised at its magnitude and solidity.
I congratulate Wheeling on this grand
achievement.

Work on the hull of the Texas has

of want of material have been entirely

Indiana, Massachusetts, and Oregon is
going on rapidly, the two former having
their frames erected up to the armor
belt. According to present possibilities
they will be ready for service early in
1894.

McMillin withdraws.
The most exciting incident of the day
happened then. Before the calling Of
the roll on the thirtieth ballot was be-

sultation with some of his a6herents,
entered the chamber of the house, and
announced his withdrawal from the
contest. Tt, announcement came like
thunderbolt from clear sky, and for
moment the members present were
taken back. The McMillin men divided
between the two leaders-seven going
to Crisp and eleven to Mills. Mr.. Nc
Millin also voted for Mills, and he was
loudly applauded by the Texans follow
ers. When the last vote had been
called it was found that Crisp had 113
votes-lackmg one of nomination. Be-

This was the signal for
An Outburst of Applause,
and when the clerk had called Mr..
Springer's name and he had responded:
81 vote for Charles L. Crisp" the Crisp
men broke loose in one wild, unre-
strained yell. They mounted on desks
and chairs and yelled at the top of their
voices. Books, handkerchiefs and
pieces of paper were thrown into the
air and for few minutes pandemonium
reigned supreme. Crisp men hugged
each other in joy and shouted out
words of congratulation that were lost
in the wild uproar of voices. Cheer

the news of his election quietly.
The withdrawal of Mr.. Springer
caused some change in the vote that
was about to be announced. Four of
Mr.. Springer's supporters allowed their
names to stand recorded in favor of Mr..
Springer. The vote was then announced
as follows: Crisp 119, Mills 105, Spring
