State Convention to be Held In Lynchburg
To-day.
The State convention Of the National
Prohibition party will convene in Lynch
burg to-day. Col. j. r. Miller, chair
man of the executive committee, in his
call for the convention says:
Gas the party organization is not com
plete in the State and some difficulty
would arise in attempting to fix basis
of representation to the convention, it
is ordered that any citizens of the State
who have at any election voted the Pro-
hibition party ticket or any persons who
will pledge themselves to vote for and
support the party nominee may become
members and participate in the action
of the convention"
Acting on this, several gentlemen
from Roanoke will go to Lynchburg to-.
day to participate in the deliberations
of this meeting. One OF the chief OBJ
jects of the convention is to elect dele
gates to the national Prohibition con-
vention. which will bring out candi-
date for president.

The final examinations are in progress

A report was sent out from Lexingto n
several days ago by tho Associated
Press correspondent stating that a
violent hail storm had passed over this
county doing great damage to the grow
ing crops, especially the wheat crops,
which was just in bloom. Your CORE
spondent had occasion to take a trip
through that section of the county, q
few ago, where the storm is said to have
prevailed to greater extent than any
other section and special observations
were made Of the wheat corn and grass
stands and they were found to be in
hrst-class condition. During the past
two weeks there has been considera-
Bile amount of rain here, but not enough
to damage the wheat or other growing
crops.
Quite number of our citizens will at
tend the decennial celebration in Roa-
noke on the 18Th. The cadets of the
Virginia Military Institute, two hun
dred strong, will attend in body. The
occasion is anticipated with great in
terest here, and the day will, no doubt,
be one OF much enjoyment to the boys,
as they seldom have occasion to leave
their own parade ground. Arrange

Roanoke baseball club and tho Stone
wall club of Lexington for game on
that day. The old Stonewall has fine
reputation and are huStlers, and unless
the Roanoke boys get n move on them

end of the horn.
Today was observed in Lexington as
Memorial day, and the graves Of all the

fully decorated. The vault of Gen. Lee

Distribution.

Secretary Tracy In Douns as to Its
Distribution.
WASHINGTON, Dec 2S.--The SIS 900 ac-
cepted by this government from Chile In
settlement of all damages in the Baltimore
riots at Valparaiso are now in the United
States treasury awaiting determination Of
the doubts in the minds Of officials as to their
authority TO disburse it In way that would
fully and effectually protect the government
from the demands OF such of the claimants
as might be dissatisfied with their allotment.
Secretary Tracy has expressed grave doubts
on this subject himself, and, therefore, hesi-
tates to assume the responsibility naturally
placed on him. IL was at first thought that
be would appoint board of naval officers
to consider all the claims on file in conneo-
tion with the Baltimore affair, and to re-
port plan for an equitable pro rata distri-
button Of the fund. Discussion of suoh a
course developed all sorts of posi-
BILE legal complications and technioali-
ties, with the result that it has
been temporarily abandoned and the
secretary has practically concluded to ask
the President TO refer the matter to con-
gress with o view 10 the enactment of
special legislation which will insure the dis
tribution OF the award in proper legal form,
and at the same time reduce the prospects
OF future litigation In regard thereto TO o
minimum. There are said to be no preos-
dents to guide the navy department in this
matter
