of one of the best-known men in virginia,
and now involves the life of another who
has been in close touch with the public for
fifteen or twenty years. and has plunged
two hitherto happy families into the
deepest sorrow. This interest was mani
tested by the great crowd that assembled
here to-day to attend the openlng-day OF
the trial. which is certain to be remarKa-
bic I'm many respects. Not only this ana
adjacent counties are well represented,
but many persons have come either To

sections OF the State.
A COMMODIOUS EDlFICE.
The court house In which the case ls

two stories. but the hail above has not

OF hts age In Virginia has done more de-
voted or willing service for his party.
At all times he has been ready 10 answer
the call Of Democracy, no matter what
personal sacrifice was involved.
Physically, Colonel Elicit Is fine spe-
cinen OF manhood, and his bearing and
strong, clear-cut, and intellectual features
would attract attention In any crowd.
He is forcible. aggressive, and incisive
speaker. and has kept himself thoroughly
posted on all political issues Of the coun-
try. There Is not a man In the State
who holds his personal and political
friends by stronger ties.
Conference ri Wise Delegates.
Just before the convention assembled
the eighteen Wise delegates from Rich
mond held a conference In one OF the
parlors OF the Ballard. Mr.. George B.
Davis vas made chairman. Several dele
gates addressed the body advocating
unanimous action on It's part with refer
ence TO its action. IT was finally agreed
that seventeen OF the delegates should
cast their votes In the convention for
Colonel Elicit, and that one should vote
for Judge Ingram. The Ingramite was

NUMEROUS WITNESSES.
The Commonwealth already has fifty
two more witnesses summoned, and it is
understood that still others may be sent

PRISONER AND FAMILY.
When Clerk j. J. Hobbs, with the type
written Indictment and copy Of the
court regulations in his hand, stepped TO
the front OF the bar and told the prisoner
TO stand up there was deathlike silence,
and the scene was an affecting one.
Captain Goodman, with one hand lean
ing on the back OF his chair and the
other on his hip, looked first at the
Clerk and then lstlessly about the room.
His wife, who sat near him with her
little girl on one side and her son on the
other, looked steadfastly down To the
floor. and was v!sbly affected. She bowed
her head and put her smelling salts to
her nose. IL was at first thought that
she was weeping. The children. aged

1t was decided to hold a congressional
nominating convention on Tuesday. Au-
gust 18th. Henrico county courthouse
will be the place. and noon the time.
Delegates are to be elected by precinct
meetings, and the basis of representation
is 10 be two from each precinct. This
would make the full representation about
80, but IL is exceedingly doubtful whether
all OF the Richmond precincts will elect
delegates.
Judge Gregory delivered a long address,
In which he claimed TO show the su-
periorty OF the Populist over the old
parties. after which the conference ad-
journed.
Up TO the present time the only names
mentioned for the Populist nomination are
those Of Judge Gregory and Mr.. Julian
NJ. Ruiiin.
In conversation with Dispatch re-
porter after the conference. Judge Gre
CORY said he was positive that his party
would poll 10000 votes in the State this
fall. as against 5000 last year. He would
hazard no guess as to the vote of the
Populsts In Richmond.
NO COUNTY CONVENTION.
a convention of Henrico Populists was
called for yesterday, to elect delegates
10 the district and State conventions.
Owing TO the small crowd that responded,
no meeting was held.
