place ofthe one recently washed away.
The various bids for building iron
bridges over Hunting Creek and Rocky

THE PRESIDENT comedies that there

THE PRESIDENT comedies that there
is excellent material in Virginia for the
U. 5. circuit judgeship made vacant by
the death of Judge Bond. but says the
tact that there are so many applicants
for the place from the State makes the
selection of any one of them difficult,
and intimates that it will, therefore,
probably be given to citizen OF some
other State. In the earlier and better
days of Virginia, when the fact became
known that one of her prominent sons
desired federal position an uncontest-
ed field was allowed him by his own
people, and the whole influence OF the
State went to his support. Suppose
the old plan be reverted to in the pres
ent case. 1t could certainly do no
harm, and though probably too lac
now, if not so, would at least relieve
the President of the difficulty to which
he refers.

THE TARIFF BILL.-It said that
there will be little or no discussion OF
the tariff bill in the House before the
holidays This is the conclusion the
democratic members of the committee
on ways and means have come to with
reluctance. The difficulty of reaching
decision as to sugar and the wide diff
ferences of opinion as to internel taxa
ton were the first causes Of delay, and
the committee is working now to per-
feet the details and language of the
bill, so that when it is enacted into law
there will be little chance for contro-
yersy as to its construction. Delay in re-
porting the bill will allow not more than
four days debate in the House before
the holiday recess. A caucus of the
House democrats may be called to con-
slider the thrift and internal revenue
questions, as the Louisiana democrats
and the comparatively few other dem
Gratis who are actively opposing fea-
lures of the ways and means majority
desire and predict, but, if so, it is not
considered likely that it will have any
great effect on the legislation proposed.

THE BANKRUPTCY B1LL.-The de-
feat of the bankruptcy bill was the
principal incident in the House of Rep

complished by a vote of 142 to Ill on a
motion by Mr.. Bland, of Missouri, that
the House concur in the recommends
ton made by the committee of the
whole, that the enacting clause be
stricken out. Prior to the decisive
vote, Mr.. Van Voorhis, of New York,
inquired if g motion to recommit the
bill to the judiciary committee was in
order, to which the Speaker replied
that it was not. This finally disposes
of the bill unless it should be passed by

ing day; and the House, by a formal

tracts with the vice-pope for the sup

OF the speakers gained great applause
by saying that perhaps from one point
of view we deserve the name of oxen,
for we work like oxen to live honestly,
but I, in considering this metaphor,
would call him an ass" Some ofthe hot

CAPTSHEpPERD ON THE SENATORIAL
NoMINATIoN.-Capt. Ham Shepherd
returned to Lynchburg yesterday from
Richmond, where he had been work
er in behalf of Gen. Fitz Lee for the
Senatorship. When asked about the
fight and its result he said:
"The Lee men would not have been
more surprised by bombshell than
they were by the way nine or ten men,
bers of the Legislature voted. Men
voted for Martin whom We were assur-
ed would vote for Lee. If these men
had stuck to us we would have elected
Lee on the second ballot. For exam
pie, look at the course of Mr.. Pitcher,
the delegate from Fauquier county,
my own county. He advised with the
friends of Gen. Hunton who assisted in
bringing about his withdrawal for the
purpose of electing Lee. He was
party to the most secret council Of
Lee men, had his name on the list at
Lee headquarters Of men who were
sure for Lee; in fact, his every action
led US to believe that he was among
the firmest of Lees supporters. When
he then went into caucus and voted
for Martin, Lees supporters were as
founded. Some even believed he was
even voting for Martin for joke and
that he would certainly change his vote
on the second ballot. He stayed with
Martin, however, and the condemna-
ton of him by the Lee men is very
strong. Gen. VIM. H. Payne was lin
censed that when Mr.. Pitcher APP
preached him after the vote and offer
ed to shake hands, Gen. Payne drew
back and said: Don't speak to me,
sir; I feel that the touch Of your hand
would disgrace me- Then there was
Senator Stubs, of Gloucester, who was
instructed by the convention that NOM
mated him to vote for Lee. He voted
for Martin. Col. Gibson, of Culpeper,
We were sure of until the vote, and I
might name half dozen others, whose
constituencies were almost unanimous
ly in favor of Lee without any support
whatever among the democrats for his
vote for Mr.. Martin

THE CLOSURE RULE.-The republi-
can steering committee of the Senate
have served notice on the democrats of
that body that when they come to the
proposed changes Of the Senate rules
which will provide for closure, the re-
publicans will present a solid front in
opposition. The republicans say they
are perfectly willing to support closure,
but that it must not come at time
when it is desired to apply it to certain
measures in view, as the federal cleo
lions and tariff bills, which are soon to
come up for action. They will sup
port closure to apply to subsequent
Congresses, but they will oppose and
defeat closure for application in this
Congress. Thus, it appears possible
for the republicans in the Senate to
force some notifications of the tariff
uill, but they will not offer factious OPP
position to the bill as whole.

THE WASHINGTON Post is of the opln-
ion that the facts that Mr.. o'Ferrall
has been elected Governor OF, and MI,
Martin, nominated for .. S. Senator

of this State ARE no longer blinded by
the glare and glamour of exalted gene
alogy, and that distinguished names
will not do to conjure with" The two
gentlemen referred to will doubtless fill
their respective places ably and etfi-
GENTLY, but it is equally certain that
neither of them will attribute his sue
cess to popular feeling against the dis
tinguished names of some of their COM
petitors nor will any body else, who
is at all familiar with the feelings of

THE fact that Minister Willis says he
lis confident that legislation favorable
to the Hawaiian Islands would soon be
enacted in the United States" tends to
confirm the fear that the President has
hunked again, and that, after all, the
deposition of the legitimate govern
ment of Hawaii by the outrageous in
reference and force Of the United
States, will be sanctioned and sustained
by the government of the latter, which,
until that interference, was supposed
to be that of q friendly nation, and
though the benefciaries will be a few
disnaturalized American pirates.

LETTER FROM RICHMOND.
Correspondence of the Alexandria Gazette,
RICHMOND. Va. Dec. S, 1893.

RICHMOND, Va, Dec. s, 1898.
Every other subject has dropped into
insignifcance in Richmond since the
result of the Thursday night caucus
has been learned and people and poll
ticians are open in their denunciations
of those instrumental in the defeat of
General Lee. "Our Fitz" is easily the
most popular man in Virginia, and a
gentleman remarked to-day that if the
Senatorship had been left to the people
Fitz Lee would have been chosen so
to l. The situation was changed afler
o'clock Thursday evening. 1t was
conceded all day Thursday that Lee
would certainly win, his friends
basing their remarks on the fact that
early in the morning the Hunton peo-
pie announced that they would not en-
ter the long term contest. The Lee
people were certain of the Hunton
delegation and they got it, but some of
those who had pledged themselves to
support the Ex-Governor failed to do so
and at the last moment went over to
Martin.
The thing that pinches the Lee peo-
pie the most is the fact that delegates
from districts known to be almost solid
ly in favor Of Lee cast their ballots for
Mr.. Martin.
1t is rumored to-day that there will
probably be an investigation into the
methods used in securing the nomina-
ton of Mr.. Martin. The Lee people
claim that they have facts and figures
to prove that money contributed by
railroad companies for campaign pur-
posesinstead of going throughthe regular
channel that is, through the chairman OF
the State democratic committee, was
distributed by officers of the railroad
companies, and thus it was that dele
gates were elected in Lee districts who
in the caucus voted for Martin. No
contest will be made, but these facts, it
is understood, will be made public.
Two of the Richmond representa-
tives in the House voted for Martin.
They are j. Aston Cabell, lawyer,
and Thomas Byrne, a car-painter in the
employ of the c. & 0. r. r. Co. Both
were nominated and elected by Lee
people and the last named was put on
the ticket to please the working class.
es. 1t was said to-day that they are
politically doomed.
