Third Party Fusion With Republicans in the
South,

JACKSON, Misc, March 1.-Repre-
sentative Me- lister, chairman Of the
national committee of the anti-sub-
treasury Alliance this morning was
asked by reporter what he thought
of the recent labor conference in St.
Louis, and it's bearing upon the poll
tics of the South. He said: "Thepre
tended opposition of the Southern
delegates is the merest sham. Thry
adj in full sympathy with it, possibly
with the exception of Livingston of
Georgia, who is in doubt as
to whether his state is ripe
for the movement. There is no
question but that the subtreasury
element in the Southern A lliance will
join the movement. The Third party
ties adopted the Ocala platform and
this element believes their political
salvation depends upon the success of
the subtreasary and land loan
schemes. The movement is fradght
with danger to Democracy in the sew
eral Southern states, notably North
Carolina, Alabama and Loui lana.
The fusion of this element with the
Republicans would seriously imperil
Democratic success. Republican man
ayers recognize the waning fortunes
of their party in the northwest grow
ing out of this movement and will
eagerly embrace any fusion in the
South as an Offset"

FAMINE AND CRIME REIGN.

LONDON, March IAN English

ing in the famine districts of Russia,
writes from Saratov: Crimes and vio-
lence in the valley of the Volga are of
frequent occurrence. Clergymen's
houses have been robbed and the
bodies of murdered men are found
on the high roads. The cores
pondent as warned of the dangers of
travelling about the country and sell
dom drove at night.
Caravans of merchandise are escort
ed by armed forces. The correspondent
says while he was sleighing on the
Volga one evening he was tracked for
half an hour by a ragged, i'll looking
peasant armed with musket and
cudgel. 1t was his intention to sig
nal the approach of the CORES
pondent to an ambush prepared by
he robbers who infest both sides of
he Volga! The correspondent showed
his revolver and the peasant retired.
The correspondent adds the villages
| in the government of Samara, which
were prosperous in 1886, are now
| plunged into the deepest misery. and
their population has been decima:ed.
In one village of 2765 1856 of its in.
habitants have migrated. OF those
the remaining 1851 are dependent
upon charity. In three months the
people of this village lost 4038 head
live stock. They are indebted to the

Similar conditions prevail in many
other villages. Forty thousand acres
of land are idle in the province o.
Samara, owing to the lack of seed tC
plant. A large number OF people live
in holes in the earth for warmth
They eat bread made of wild hemr
and the carcasses of horses. This
diet causes severe and often fata
nausea. Famine is changing the peas
ants into wild beasts. In one case {

in begging. A loaf of bread was givei

Judge Turney's opening campaign
speech at Winchester Monday was an
arraignment of the st. Louis de-
mands and Gov. Buchanan's
policy on that question. 1t was well
tempered and strong and not often
sive IN better language, but rather
an appeal to the bitter judgment and
reason OF men. The whole OF his
speech was taken up in the discuss
ion of this question, which seems to
furnish the issue between him and
Gov. Buchanan. He did not discuss
national issues, or State policy to any
extent and did not say a word on
either the tariff or silver question.
