. telegram from Governor OFerrall In
reply to the resolutions of the Alexandria
Board OF Supervisory. published in the
Dispatch yesterday. The Governor says:
Il shall be glad 20 know to what ex-
tent these people a become a nuisance
70 the peace OF the community: what
steps have been taken In the matter. and
to have any suggestions from you that
you may be prepared to make"
Sheriff Veitch has been In consultation
with Captain George Mushbach and
others to-day. but as yet no course OF
action has been determined upon
REINFORCEMENTS.
Tho situation Is still a gloomy one for
the 1ndustrials. They have absolutely
nothing TO eat, and their number is con-
stantly increasing. Yesterday "Coloner'
venette. a jail-blrd from California, APP
peared on the scene with half a dozen
men, thus swelling the number a little.
He was Immediately elected TO succeed
Colonel" Endicott as commissary gem
eral n commander of a California band.
as the latter Is away. 1t is claimed that
In tho camp there are 1873 Odd-Feilows.
30 Young Mems Christian Association
members. Sc Masons, 3J4 knights OF La
Dor. and members OF the Christian En-
deavor Society by the quantity. Inc
Washington branches of these organiZa-
ton are soon, IL is SAID, TO be called upon
TO enc their assistance in taking charge
OF their unfortunate comrades of the In
6ustriai camp. The Washington knights
OF Labor are already going to their help,
one OF them by the name OF Langstcn
having told the men yesterday that that
society would at its next meeting order
donatcd TO them 1000 loaves OF bread.
A number OF qu:nlne pills we're sent to
the camp yesterday by a philanthropic
druggist of Georgetown TO aid the chiils-
and-fever patients, who are numerous.
The men are at present Directing de-
cidedly 10 the mysterious manner IN
which all the money given TO them dis
appears. and they do not seem at all In
concord with their leaders. They are
still worrying the country folk. not only
getting troublesome. but dangerous; a
Gaze Of housc-breaking being attributed
TO them. A mail grocery and provision
store belonging to a Mrs. Bryant, not
far from Rosslyn, has been entered and
relieved OF It's contents. and the theft Is
attributed 10 the lniuStrldlS, although
there Is no proof OF their having done It,
And there IL no defence against them,
the negro constables of the county being
too much in fear of them to attempt TO
search the camp and see IL they are in
possession OF the things stolen. so the
country folk are apparently at the mercy
Of the Commonwealers.

Lyles, both w%ell-known and popular
young Alexandrians. were married last
night at the residence Of the brides aunt,

their honeymoon at Niagara Falls.
