Members In Reference to Hili
ana Cleveland.

The State Democratic Committee will
meet at the Exchange Hotel at noon to-

committee. Richmond. Norfolk. Roanoke.
and Lynchburg will urge their respective
claims as the place of meeting.
But five of the members of either CON-
mittee had reached the city last night. but
pretty full representations are expected IN
the morning. So far as the sentiment has
yet been asoertained it is in favor OF
large convention.
Last night a DISPATCH reporter conversed
with several members of the committee re.
garding the popular choice for presidential
nominee in their district as between Hill
aud Cleveland.
HILL GAINING GROUND.
Mr.. Harry Wooding. member of the State
committee from the Fifth District, and
who resides in Danyille. said that Hill was
gaining ground with his people and that
the Senator's southern tour had greatly
strengthened him. Mr.. Cleveland, has.
he added, many strong friends. but Hill is
forging ahead.
State-Senator Hatcher, Of Franklin, in
the same district, said 'Hill is appreci-
sting and Clevelsnd is depreciating. The
people in my county want the man that
can win, and they think Hill is that man"
Mr. Wooding and Senator Hatcher both
expressed themselves in favor OF large
convention 40 that the voice of the people
might (be fully represented. and the latter
gave IL "a his opinion that the convention
should send uninstructed delegates. Let
thcm." he concluded. go to the national
convention and do the best they can with
the lights before them"
FARMERS FAVOR CLEVELAND.
State Senator Echols, who is member of
the committee from the Tenth District,
said he thought the people of that district,
particularly the farmers, were tor Cleve-
land. but that he also thought Hill was
gaining ground. =,
Mr.. Lloyd L. Smyth. of the First, and
Mr. j. f. Ryan. of the Eighth District,
also arrived last night, but could not be
| found by the DISPATCH man.
Mr.. James X. Fisher, secretary OF the
State committee, reached the city yester-
day morning, and Dir. l.. q. Washington
arrived last night. Senator Barbour Will
| not be here.
MAY NOT DE EITHER.
Mr.. W. T. Atkins, of Boydton. member
| of the Executive Committee, in referring
TO Hill and Cleveland, said there was a
time when Hill could have been elected.
| but since the recent attacks upon him be
questioned the advisability of nominating
| him. For Cleveland. he continued, he en-
| tertaiued o high respect. but doubted
| whether he could get the Farmers Alliance
vote.

WANTS PAY FOR HIS WIFE
Carl Barth Threatens Murder If
Not Compensated For Mrs.
BIS Lost Affections.

In the midst of the proceedings in the
First Police Court this morning Justice
ODonnell was made the recipient of a
address was in German, and upon open
ing it he also discovered to
his amazement that the lengthy
episte enclosed was written in the
same language. The letter Was finally
interpreted and it disclosed the fact that
one Carl BarGh, of No. 1928 Spencer street,
Syracuse, desired the assistance OF the
Court in locating aud Furnishing his wife,
who had eloped with well-to-do tailor
named Frederick Schumann. Schumann
has wife and family residing at No. 634
North Saline street, Syracuse.
Barth in his letter states that unless his
injured feelings are repaired he will be-
come insane and seek the lives OF his un-
faithful wife and her companion in crime.
b rth alleges that Schumann was an
intimate friend of his and was n frequent
caller at his home. Prior to July last he
noticed that Schumann and his wife were
becoming dangerously intimate and ac-
cordingly demonstrated with her.
AsSAILS HIS wIFE'S FAIR NAME.
Barth accuses his wife of having an uu-
savory reputation. and states that with
in the past year she reduced him almost
TO begsary by her disgraceful esoapades.
the last one of which cost
him $1,000. He watched his
wife continually and learned
that she was continually meeting Schu-
mann. He threatened to do Schuman
bodily harm, and as result on July %
the couple disappeared and he ascertained
that they came to Jersey City and were
living on North street.
Barth declares that Schumann not
only robbed him of his wife. whose loss
he does not mourn. but he also appropri-
ated his wearing apparel and household
goods.
DOUBLE MURDER THREATENED.
He wrote letter in strict confidence,
hoping that the Court would cause the
arrest of the elopers and compel Schu-
mann to pay him good round sum OF
money for damages done to his life and
happiness.
Barth wants money, and if he is not
aided by the police in getting it, he
intends furnishing the newspapers with
sensation by numbering his wife and
Schumann in wrecking his home and
happiness.
Justice O'Donnell is unable to take any
action in the matter until a complaint
has been made in his court.
Barth's arrival with gattling gun II
anXiously awaited.
