A Card from Mr.. Barry.
To the Editor Of the Dlenatcb.


In Fridays issue OF your paper ap-
peared an article under the caption
Attachments Against Mr. Barry" which
unexplained Is calculated 10 do me great
injustice. | desire to say that the suing
out Of these attachments is but another
attempt TO force me into the settlement
Of a claim | do not owe. When &. w
Dolloff and 1 dissolved partnership there
was no settlement. but | was sure that
he was indebted 20 me. Some months ago
his counsel. Messrs. BevCridge and Bris-
tow, filed bill in the Chancery Court
for a settlement, and enioined me from
collecting about 5000 due me- though the
claim asserted by him was only S2.O0O.
Mr.. II. Il. BOudar, who was selected by
counsel for both sides, examined the
books and papers OF the firm, and upon
his report that Dolloff was inhibited to
me for several hundred dollars. nd the
presentation Of a1,tdavits showing that ]
owned real estate more than sufficient TO
pay the claim asserted by DollOn, Judge
Lamb dissolved the injunction. DolloH
then appealed, and the case Is now pend
ing IN the Supreme Court OF Appeals
The second attachment IS sworn out in
the same case. the pretext for doing SO
being that | am going 10 the city Of
New York to complete contract for "A
large amount of paving in that city. for
the faithful performance OF which
have executed a bond in the sum Of
5000. two gentlemen each qualifying
for above amount. 1 have still real estate
I'm the city of Richmond and Manchester
worth five times the amount Dullofr
claimed that l owed him. which | have
no intention Of disposing of.
Respectfully, THOMAS BARRY.

An Appropriate Gift,

In trying to thi.lk Of an appropriate and
inexpensive Christmas present for Rfrieud
or loved one. let US suggest that ytn pro-
cure an artistic photograph, crayon or
pastil. How about a dainty miniature
in water-colors? Either style would cost
but little, and each is always in the best
OF taste for a Christmas remembrance.
Whatever you do, be sure and get a pic
ture that will do you fun justice. There's
where the difficulty lies" says the critic
which is quite true. But since others get
good pictures. why not you? Good pic
lures are made only by expert photogra-
piers. Knowing this prudent people place
their orders only with high-class artists,
such rs Mr.. W. W. Foster. III north Ninth
street. He IS patient and paiustaking;
bis productions are artistic in lighting
graceful and stylish in posture. and beau
tifui in finish.

ITALYS BANK SCANDALS.
Thirty More Deputies Involved Therein-A
tremendous Sensation.
By cable to the Dispatch)

O3y cable to the Dspatch)
ROME, November GA part OF the
report of the committee appointed TO in
vestgate the bank scandals which was not
read in the Chamber Of Deputies on
Thursday was published to-day. Among
the names read In the Chamber OF men
having been too closely associated with
the doubtful bank affairs were Sisnor La
cava, Minister Of Commerce. Count ANA
del, Duke Gennarodi San Donate. Baron
Giovanni Nicetera. and nine others. The
part of the report made public to-day
alleges that thirty other members Of the
Chamber are debtors 20 the banks. This
publication has produced tremendous
impression, making the situation more
difficult.
Among the debtors OF the banks who
have not even paid the interest on the
money they obtained are Signor Martini
and two Of the Garibaldfs sons. The
newspapers that favor the accused have
commenced to attack the bona fdes Of
the members Of the committee.
Though at present SiCnor Zanar1clli Is
at the head Of the largest group in tic
Chamber OF Deputies, the connection OF
Signcr Glolitti with the bank scandals
| tends TO embarrass him. owing to the in
tended fight Of the opposition. SCnor
Cavalotti. the well-known Radical mem
| her Of the Chamber. remarked yesterday:
I'VE will meet again, a XanardelH Cabi-
net"
The Senate. in private sitting to-day
adopted the proposal OF Professor Augusta
Pierantini to appoint n commission Of
five to examine the charges made against
senator's in connection with the bank
scandals.
King Humbert conferred this morning
with General Ricotti. formerly Minister
OF War and now senator. Ricotti has
since been trying 10 form a Cabinet drawn
mostly from the Senate. but his efforts
are expected to come 20 nothing. He
advocates reduction Of the army by two
cOrps-a measure which would render
him intolerable to Germany and Austria.

We have refrained thus far from an
immediate reference TO the persistent and
continuous lamentations Of the Rich
mond Times over the election Of Colonel
O'Ferrall and its discussions of the why's
and whcrefores of his nomination and his
lesser vote than those of his associates on
the State ticket. The distinguished
ability and apparent conservatism In de-
sign which characterized the editorials
of that paper had so impressed US that we
were unwilling to believe that reflection
would not cause a change of views, or at
least a cessation OF hostilities In its line
of attack upon the machine" which
nominated Colonel O'Ferrall. II seems
that in this we were mistaken. for almost
daily-at least semi-Weekly-since the
election editorials. sometimes brlstling
with aggressiveness and sometimes with
pious lamentations over the corruption Of
members OF the Democratic party, are
served out to the public in protest against
the nomination, If not the election, OF
Colonel O'Ferrall. .
In regard to the Times primary remedy.
even If that journal has not mistaken the
people for corruptionsts and their will
for fraudulent. minority dlctation. super
vised or aided by Grover Cleveland we
submit that the remedy proposed is a most
complete failure. We allude to the scheme
advocated that there should be fixed by
the Legislature plan for taking the sense
OF the people as to who should be candi-
dates for Office. In other words, that the
Democratic party should have a regular
election TO secure a candidate, who should
then undergo an election test, as now pro-
vided by law for the election of public Of
fclals. The plan has the attraction OF no.
velty. at least. Within more than CEN
tury OF time that our government has eX-
listed, nothing so rare In Virginia has
ever been suggested as providing by law
for the selection OF partisan candidates
who shall then be again presented 70
tho people for an election TO Office.
