THE VIRGINIA CAMPAIGN.
Democrats Will Win, Says Mr.. Ryan of the
Richmond State.
They Have Been Scared, Though, He
Says-The POpulist Strength and
Effect of the Prohibition Vote.

THE democrats Of Virginia will pull
through next Tuesday, but they have been
worse scared in this campaign than in any
since the overthrow Of Mahoneism in 1885,"
said Mr.. William Ryan. president of the
State Newspaper Company of Richmond
and collector of the internal revenue when
stopped by Star reporter today. Eyes, the
democrats have been scared, and no mis-
take"
In response to interrogatives, Mr.. Ryan
said that the populists were very strong
In virginia. The new party included among
It's leaders some men, who had been promi-
nent 10 democratic councils in former cam
pagns- 1t had on its side considerable
dash and deal of enthusiasm. 1t had also
ample campaign funds. And the lack of
campaign money has been seriously felt by
the democrats.
The Virginia democrats, continued Mr.
Ryan, were apathetic until about a week
or ten days ago. Now they are aroused
ana OFerran. 1t is believed will win by a
majority OF ten or fifteen thousand. This
would be far below Gov. McKinney's ma
jority, which was over forty thousand, but
when Mckinney defeated Malone for gov
ernor, the democratic majority was phe-
nominal on account of the detection in the
republican ranks
Speaking of the legislature Mr.. Ryan said
the democrats would have a majority, but
II would not be large. They would prob
ably have 10 out of the loo members of the
house of delegates. He says Gen. Fitz Lee
seems to have the inside track for United
states Senator, though his chief opponent.
Mr.: Thomas Martin. is very strong, and
Will be hard man to beat Martin is one
OF the boldest and most astute political
managers in Virginia. He rarely ever an

his work on the quiet" Lees strength. on
the other hand, is with the people He
makes a speech every day, and has done
much In the. campaign to stir the demo-
Gratis TO action. Mr.. Ryan thinks how
ever, that Senator Hunton will possibly he
elected to fill out the late Senator Barbour's
uneNpired term
Mr. Ryan says that the prohibitionists
nave been worrying the democrats more
imam usual this year. This is particularly
the case In. Augusta county He SAYS the
negroes are Indifferent. They do not an
pear to take any interest in the populist
movement, and they are not ready to go
over in body to the democratic party, al
though few of them are loyal democrats
MIR. Ryan says that next to the state cleo
ton, the greatest political interest is over
the federal judgeship-the late Judge Bonds
place, Richmondfs candidate, Mr.. c. "
Meredith, will be pushed by the local bar
but he seems to regard as particularly strong
Virginia candidates Mr.. Alexander Hamilton

1t will be impossible, he says, for the Vir-
ginia delegation to agree on any one man.
and 1t will be lively scramble.

CHEERS GREET THE BELL.
Enthusiasm Shown for the Relic of

PITrSBURG. Pa, Nov. S.-The special
vestibuled train conveying the Liberty Bell
to Philadelphia arrived in Pittsburg at z
o'clock this morning unheralded. There was
no demonstration of any kind AMI at 73o
o'clock the train started east over the Penn
sylvania railroad.
At Cedarville, Ohio, last night Council
man w. H. FELTON, of Philadelphia stepped
out of the sleeping car TO ride on tie fat
car On which was the bell. AS the train
rounded curve Mr.. FELTON, fell of the car
and was quite badly bruised. His abserce
was not discovered until the train arrived at
Dennison, Ohio. Mr.. FELTON, telegraphed to
his friends on the train that ne was not
seriously injured and will continue his
journey this evening.
ALTOONA, Pa, Nov. 3.-The liberty bell
arrived here at 1l:20 o'clock this morning,
ten minutes behind the scheduled time
From Cincinnati the liberty bell train last
night ran through succession Of bonfires
and fireworks that only ceased when rain
began falling heavily.
Great crowds stood at every station and
cross roads and a more splendid exhibition
OF patriotism has never been made in the
southern part Of Ohio. All through the
night sounds of cheering and the occa-
sional boom of cannon greeted the old
bell as it few along in the darkness.
columbus was reached long after mid
night and all on the train save the guardi-
crowd was at the station and fireworks
were set Off and locomotive whistles
screeched salute to the famous relic
When Pittsburg was reached the rain was
heavy and the presence of the bell in the
smoky city attracted little or no atteu-
ton.
East OF Pittsburg big crowds were at
every station. At Irwin, Derry and other
places school children under umbrellas
stood to cheer the bell as 1t flew past them
Through the Conemaugh valley flags f1ut-
tered the workmen in the big mills waved
hats and aprons while the whistles were
blowing and church bells rang out salutes
to the old bell of independence.
Bolivar. Nineveh. Morellville Johnstown
and Conemaugh City. each turned out its
population and the gloomy morning had no
effect on the enthusiasm of the people
AT Cresson and other mountain towns
similar scenes were enacted and at Altoona
when a stop of ten minutes was made an
immense crowd was massed in and around
the station and the bell was given an ova-
ton of the heartiest sort,

A Letter From Mr., King

Through a letter received a day or two
ago by personal friend in this city Ct
Mr. King 1t Is known that the report in
regard to his going to the BloomingdaIe
asylum is true. but it is believed that the
cause was not insanity, for the reason that
in this letter, written by Mr. King himself
he states that he is going to the asylum
for month, and then If he is not better
that he intends to put himself under care
of DIR. Weir Mitchell. His friends in this
city believe that Mr.. King is suffering
from nervous prostration, and that he went
to the asylum because of some special ia
cilties for reatment, or for some other
reason, which. however. has no connection
with any disorder of the mind.

Some Items I'm the Measure That Fall
ed of Passage.

Some Items I'm the Measure That Fall
ed Of Passage.
The urgent deficiency bill is dead for
this session. The tangle into which the
House and Senate have worked themselves
over the appropriation to pay Senate clerks
for work during the summer of 1880 has re-
suited in such a complete disagreement
that further efforts to pass the bill were
abandoned this afternoon at o'clock, and
the unfortunate measure was sent back to
the desks of the two houses there to re-
main until the regular session shall have
begun in December.
Some Other Items.
The biggest item in the bill is the appro-
priation Of 100000 to enable the clerk of the
House to pay to members the amounts
which they certify they have paid or have
agreed to pay for clerk hire necessarily
employed by them in the discharge of their
duties. Until the appropriation is made a
good many of the congressional clerks who
are employed under the resolution of March
3, 1888, will have to wait for their salaries.
This does not kill the bill finally. for 1t
will remain unfinished business in the two
houses when they meet a month later. but
the whole difficulty will still be present
to prevent harmony.
District Item.
The bill contains among other items an
appropriation Of s1o5OOO, one-half to be
paid by the District for reconstructing the
barn of the reform school of the District
of Columbia, which was destroyed by fire
on the I'd of last July, and for replacing
the horses, farming implements wagons,
harness, hay, &c, lost in The fire.
Among the enaSte amendments was an
item Of $4,000 for miscellaneous expenses
and $500 to pay r. r. Quay salary as clerk
during the summer. Also S. 600 is appropri-
ated. to be paid out of the sundry civil
fl nd of 1893, for the issue of diplomas and
medals to women exhibitors at the worlds
fair. There is an item of sl27,O0O for the pay
of custodians and janitors of public build
ings outside Of the District of Columbia

THOSE SENATE CLERKS.
They Cause Considerable Trouble to
the Urgent Deficiency Bill.

They Cause Considerable Trouble to
the Urgent Deficiency Bill.
There were no signs of weakening in the
tones and attitude of Senator Cockrell today
when he moved for further conference on
the bane of contention between the two
Houses in the urgent deficiency bill. This
is tnhe provision for the pay of certain
clerks who were employed by the Senate in
1880. and who could not be reimbursed be-
cause the contingent fund of the Senate
had been exhausted. There had been three
conferences up to this morning, and for the
fourth time the Senate insisted upon it's
amendment just as soon as the prayer had
been delivered today.
1--WE have insisted and intend to keep on
insisting until it is agreed to- said Mr..
Cockrell and he pointed his forefinger
savagely at the bill as it lay on the clerk $
desk.
In the House last night there was an in
teresting colloquy between Mr. Livingston
Mr.. Savers, MIR. Cannon, the conferees on
tie part of he llpIse in regard to this
matter. 1t de yeloprd then that the Sena-
tors had admitted in the conferences that
this was largely a question OF personal
honor and that they wanted the House to
recede on that ground. Mr. Livingston had
suggested that the Senate resolve to pay
this sum-S22 000-out of the contingent
fund and increase its fund that much, but
they had refused this compromise.
Lingering Hope.
When the joint resolution of the House
continuing session employees through the
recess came to the Senate this afternoon
Mr.. Cockrell put to it an amendment COW
ering the disputed item in the deficiency
BILL but in changed phraseology, and the
Senate adopted it. The resolution was sent
back to the House, and 1t is hoped by the
Senate that. the House will agree to 1t. If
this is done the brake now holding the
urgency deficiency bill will be released and
that will be pushed through before Con-
