STRAIGUTOUT ORGAN.
a Scheme Which VIII Fall Dead Mt the
StRrt

n Scheme Which VIII Fall Dead ut the
Start.
a scheme is oil foot to provide the
straightout Republicans with an organ
in the city Of Roanoke. The plan is to
take the Herald, give it's proprietors
50, 900 in stock for good will GU and put
up $4,000 in cash to back the new en-
terprise.
OF this SIS, 900 in cash S. oeo is to be
devoted to paying off it's debts. This,
however, does not include the amount
which will be taken out of the lIerald's
hide by damages in the libels suit brought
against it by MIR. James A. Pugh for
malicious SANDER.
The best laid plans, however. often
get out OF killer. The gentlemen who
arc expected to furnish tho sinews of
war to back up the enterprises con.
cludcd, after cursory, but satisfactory
examination, that the game was not
worth the candle, and If they were going
to start straightout Republican paper
at all, 1T would DO much better to put
their $4,000 into an entirely new paper
and thus not be saddled with either the
debts or the doubtful assets of the
Herald.

Henry w. Maggss Property on Foote
Street Attached in Consequence of
Injuries inflicted by Him Upon
Peter Mcnamara.
Peter Mcnamara, who it will be remem-
bered was seriously injured in Peter
Lynch's saloon on Foote street on the
evening of July 16 by Henry W. Magg,
yesterday caused an attachment to be.
placed on Magg's property ON Foote
street and elsewhere to recover 5000
damages. Hon. T. J. Fox is attorney for
Mr.. McNamara and the writ was served by
Deputy Sheriff McGann.~ The case is re-
turnable at the September. term of the
| superior court. g. s...- ~. 4 =
The facts, as related by the plaintiff,
which led up to the attachment, are a
| follows: On the evening of July 16 Peter
l & Tuttle as carriage painter, while on
his way home from work stopped in at
Peter Lynch's saloon and ordered a glass
l of beer. While in the act of drinking it,
Magg, who it is said was in state Of
] intoxication at the time, came into the
l saloon and commenced scuffle with Nc
| Namara The latter did not care to
I wrestle with Magg and told him SO,
l whereupon the defendant picked Nc
l Namara up and threw him forcibly to the
floor and his leg, being turned underneath
his body, was broken in three places. he
was picked up and taken to his home,
where he has remained ever since unable
to attend to business by reason of his in
juries. 10
Mcnamara is a man sixty-one years Of
age, and in consequence of his advanced
years it was feared for several days by his
physicians, Drs. Russell and Hunter, that
his injuries might prove fatal. At pres
ent, however. there seems but little danger
of this, but as the physicians state that in
all probability he will never be able to
again use his leg, and that he will be con-
fined to the house probably for some time,
the suit for damages and writ of attach
ment was entered yesterday.
Peter McNamara lives at lie Ashmun
street and Henry W. Magg is pork dealer
| at 67 FoOte street.

ton at that retreat. Last night she was
off on tear of the real genuine kind and
made things extremely lively down on
Officer Powers, but not without struggle
and how she fought. When the patro
wagon arrived she was up on her mettlt
and it took the combined efforts of three
stalwart officers to successfully land her il

FROM GARDINER GREENE.
The CHI airnan of the House Comm

The Chairman of the House Commit
tee ON Canvass of Votes Sends Editor
Porter a Comm n1catfon.
HARTFORD July 21.-A communication
has been received by Editor Porter of the
Post from Gardiner Greene, jr., chairman
of the house committee on canvass of votes
for state officers, which in a clear way set
forth some of the details connected with
the work of that committee.
My recollection, says Mr.. Greene, agrees
with Mr.. Judson's that at a meeting of the
committee held on Tuesday evening, Janu-
ary 20, we were agreed that the evidence
showed no election of governor, or treas
urer; and that if the ballots rejected for
being double, there being no evidence on
the subject outside of the returns before
the committee, ought to be counted, then
the evidence showed no election of secre-
tary or lieutenant governor; and that on
the evidence, Nicholas Staub appeared to
be elected comptroller. AS the committee
disagreed about the double ballots, it was
agreed to refer the question to Messrs.
Case, Cole, Buck and Harrison, whose
opinion was to govern the committees
action.
So sure was at this time of our thor
ough agreement on a report that the evil
dence showed no election of any candidate
but Staub that devoted my available time
| for the rest of the week to preparing o
speech in support of such report and a
| fair COPY was completed by, typewriter
Saturday, January "a
On Tuesday morning, January 81, the
house met and Mr.. Harrison was present
on the floor. went to him at once and
told him that the committee had agreed to
report that the evidence showed no one
elected except Staub, expecting him to be
satisfied with our conduct; but he appear
ed dissatisfied. After the house had taken
it's recess for the day, Mr.. Harrison was
invited to attend meeting of the commit
tee in the labor commissioner room. He
did so and passed the afternoon with US.
He there advocated modification of our
report.
The committee at this session decided to
return to the originally intended form of
report, making only two classes, instead of
three and holding that the evidence showed
no election but that of Staub, who appeared
to be elected.
While out about the typewriting the re-
port, Mr.. Porter remarked that 1t would
be civil to Mr. Harrison to let him know
that we had concluded not to adopt his
suggestions before he learned it from read
ing our report in the papers, and said that
he would telegraph him. He afterwards
told me that he had done SO, but did not
know the words used by him. No i'm
proper influence was ever attempted upon
me or, as far as know, upon any member
of the committee. The report as presented
to the house seemed to me the legitimate
result of the evidence, and I neither needed
nor was subject to any influence but that
of the evidence to make me sign it.

Of Professor A.M.Loomis of this city ,di-
rector of music at Congress hall, Cape May,
the Cape May paper says, speaking of a
recent brilliant hop at Congress hall, at
Which Russell Harrison, son of President
Harrison, was one of the many noted
guests:
Saturday evening the large ballroom of
Congress hall was brilliantly lighted, and
the affair far exceeded any hop given at
that hotel this season in numbers and en-
joyment. The attendance was larger than
at any other Saturday hop SO far given,
and the pretty ladies and gallant gentle
men were there in full force. The dancing
was inspiriting, and the music furnished
by Simon Hassler's superb orchestra dis
coursed grandly the music of the mas
tiers. Prof. A. M. Loomis, the master of
ceremonies, was full of vim, and skillfully
and pleasantly guided the ceremonies.
Pretty costumes and beautiful women
were seen at every turn.
