LOST HIS VOICE.
1t Vvas Xn n Good Cause-Saved
8zO.OOO,OOO.

WASHINGTON, July 1.-The Virginia
Democratic association, an organization
which numbers in its ranks most of the
Virginia, had an organized spccchifying
trip down the Potomac last night. The
invit tations issued included the President
and all the members of his cabinet from
whom. of course, regrets were received,
and many other public men. some of
whom accepted. There was a curious
tone of disappointment as to offices rum
ming through most of the speeches.
Hon. John Goode, Chilian claim COM
missioner, who was a prominent candi-
date for the solicitor-generalship, said
that the campaign of the coming fall
would have to be carefully looked to SO
the Old Dominion did not lag in the race.
Virginia, lie said. owed debt of sup
port to the administration. Some OF the
listeners might have been disappointed
in their expectation of office, but it
should not be said that any Virginian
was Democrat for revenue only. Dem
ocrats should support their party on the
Chicago platform to which they were
pledged. TIE Sherman act was a
cowardly makeshift rcsorted to in order
to secure the Note of the silver states in
the last campaign. President Cleveland
had taken the only possible course by
calling an extraordinary session of Con-
gress. The Democratic administration
had been in power only a few short
| months. but had won the confidence OF
the people. They had saved 500, 600, 900
already in pension.
After a speech from NJ. c. Mansur OF
Missouri second comptroller OF the cur
rency, Representative Enese, of Tennes-
see, made short address. He excused
| himself from further effort as he had
"lost his voice asking for Office" He
never expected to get Representative
Meredith of the eighth Virginia district
| and other Congressman to participate
in vocal exercises,

CAPRIVI'8 ARMY BILL.
The Government Introduces tn e
Amended Measures.

BERLIN, July 7.-When the new Reich
stag met today for the first time for the
consideration of regular business nearly
all OF the 397 members were in their
places, for it was known the government
would at once introduce the amended
army bill and general interest was felt as
to the concessions, if any, that the gov
ernment had made on the original bill.
Immediately after the opening of the
House was concluded Chancellor Won
Caprivi in Il long speech introduced the
amended measure. He stated that the
present form of the bill reported the
minimum that the government would
accept. The government demands were
the lowest possible consistent with the
safety of the Emperor. The previous bill
has been before parliament and the
country for nine months and everybody
understood what the government
wanted. 1t was therefore needless to
repeat the arguments that had heretofore
been advanced in favor of the measure.

HOW WHIT WAS c AUGr.
EAe Was Enjoying Himself at a
Picnic In Kentucky.

George Whit, who was brought here
yesterday to stand trial on a charge of
completely in the killing of u. S. Deputy
Marshal Chas. B. Brockus, was arrested
a few days ago by Deputy Sheriff G. c.
Thompson of London, Ky. Thompson
learned that Whit was in his neigl,bor-
hood and after ascertaing that there
was 5000 reward for Whitt's delivery
to Sheriff Brookshirc, decided on the ar
rest. With an aide the deputy sheriff
went to a picnic where Whit and several
hundred others were enjoying them
selves, and placed their man under ar
rest. One of Whitt's friends drew a pis-
tol. but was disarmed, and the arrest
was made without further trouble.
Whit was brought here without a re-
QUESTION by Deputy Thompson and
another officer.
The killing in which Whit is said to
have figured prominently was commit
ed in this county near the Madison line
in February last. For the crime John
and Frank Llewcllyn were tried at tho
last term of the Criminal court and ac
quilted. The rebuke given the jury by
Judge Carter on this occasion will bt
remembered by all.

A Snnall Haul For the Risk of a
Long Term.

PALESTINE, Tex, July The Cannon
Ball train from Long View. due here at 9
O'Clock last night was held up and
robbed miles this side Of Neeches.
The robber was .secreted in the baggage
car. He crawled over the tender and
commanded Engineer J.. Andcrs to stop

same time. When the train stopped
three men went to the baggage car and
covered the express messenger, zoe Far
mer, and the baggage master with
drawn pistols and commanded them to

was some local express money, not over
$500, though the safe which contained a
large amount of money was not touched.
Several shots were fired to keep the pas
sengers quiet. posse has gone out In
Dursuit of the robbers.

against any who molest these harmless,
Christian people.

trains for last night and this morning
have brought in crowds from neighbor-

who is pleading for mercy. They will
bring him here at once.
A. B. Parker, of Fulton, KY, made

Mr.. Ray, father of the murdered girl, has
| requested that they allow him to light

to crisp.
large pile of wood is to be gathered
and the Paris, Tex, affair will be dupli-
Gated. The crowd is still orderly, but
determined. The murderer will be
burned here at three o'clock. The MEM
bers of the mob talk of the approaching
execution as coolly as if it were ordered
by the courts.
Latcr-The crowd now numbers thou
sands and when the murderer and rapist
was taken from the train made rush
and for few minutes nothing could be
seen for the dust. The unhappy father
has announced from the stand: This is
the man who killed my children. Let us
burn him at the proper time, but let us
keep quiet"
| The negro was we'll known as des-
perate character. The farmers are all
here, although they were In the midst OF
wheat harvest. One old fellow, speaking
of the horrible tragedy, said: Cd
| wheat; let it rot. We are going to burn
that nigger." He spoke the sentiment
of all who heard him.
The words of the mob are: I'VE did
not come to hang or shoot, that is too
easy"
| An account of the crime is as follows:
Early Wednesday morning near Bard
well, KY, two young ladies named Ray,
aged 16 and IL years. we're brutally muir
dered, presumably by a tramp. The
girls had left their home in Bardwell to
pick blackberries and were followed by
an older brother in about two hours
He found them both dead. Their throat:
were cut from ear to ear. Their bodic:
were bruised as if roughly handled ane
bore evidence of having been outraged
The bodies were so feet apart hidden ii
