charged with participating II the riot IN

day, but the evidence against them was
very weak, and they were discharged.
Others supposed to have been connected
with this affair will be arrested within the
next few days.
The testimony already heard in these
cases shows that the negroes made most
insolent threats against the white people,
and that the assembled multitude became
so boisterous that IL was necessary for the
county officers TO draw their weapons and
show that they were determined to quell
the disturbance before any sort of order

that temporary organization had been

ton decided upon by the Peoples party

FUSION TALKED OF.
From what was heard by DISPATCH re-
porter Just before the meeting was opened,
there is reason TO believe that fusion ~
contemplated. or at least talked of, where
by the Republicans are to vote for the
People's-party candidate for Congress this
fall, and the latter organization in turn
is to give its strength to the election of the
Republican county ticket when the contest
in Henrico comes of next spring. This in-
dictates that there will DO no Republican
nomination for Congress IN this district.
