WILLIAM T. HARRITY.
HOW TIE NEWS WAS RECEIVED.

The news OF Mr.. Harrity's action soon
spread among local Democrats and was
the subject of O. good deal of discussion
this afternoon. So far as Star reporters
could ascertain, it was generally very
well received, and the list of names as
selected came in for great deal of IA
vorable comment
From the list of names included in
the letter it will be seen that all the ele-
ments that previously were working
along different lines are represented, and
this is regarded as all the evidence
necessary that from now on all will pull
together. Mr.. James l.. Norris, who,
as member of the National Committee
for the District of Columbia, appointed
the first Inauguration committee, is a
member of the new committee, as is
also Mr.. Martin I. Morris, who
was made chairman of the execu-
tive committee by those associated
with Mr.. Norris. Colonel Berret, it
will be remembered, was named by Mr..
Norris as chairman Of the general COM
mittee. Mr.. Barnum, who was then chair
man of the National Committee, and
Senator German, who was chairman OF
the National Executive Committee, APP
pointed the Inaugural Committee for
the first Inauguration OF President
Cleveland, and with this as precedent
the latest move of Chairman Harrity is
looked upon as both authoritative and
final, and it is thought that from now on
all will be harmonious and smooth.

unjust discrimination.
Hallway corporations will be made la

NORFOLK AND WESTERN.
The Bill for It's Entry Into

[By telegraph to the DIspatch.l

w hNANhA-RA W wv fSa'f
WASHINGTON, December 13.--The OPP
ponents of the bill granting tho Norfolk
and Western railroad the right to enter
this city are seriously menacing the bill.
There is imminent probability that the
influence OF the rival railroads oppos-
ing this important legislation will secure
ection tomorrow, which will be fatal to
the bill for the present session. 1t
is learned that a considerable por-
ton OF the House District Com
mittee, possibly majority. have
petitioned Chairman Hemphill to with
draw the bill from its place onthe House
calendar and recommit it to the commit
tee, where, of course, it will find grave.
Chairman HemphIll was asked to take
this action out OF hand, but he decided
not TO do so until he had laid the matter
before the full committee. A meet
ing OF the committee will be held
tomorrow, and, OF course, if n majority
of the members ask to have the bill re-
committed Mr.. Hemphill will have to
put the request to the House.
