Editor Times: The undersigned commit
tee, appointed by the Prohibition conven-
ton Of the Third congressional district,
Virginia, to properly state the sentiments
OF the convention and the Prohibition
party Of the district toward MIR. @. VI.
Smithdeal and in regard to certain state
mcnts published in the Richmond Times
of October 30. on the authority OF an al
legged PrOhibiuOnist, whose name Is with
held by the editor Of The Times, pre-
sents the following as the unanimous SEN
timentS of the convention:
First. The Prohibition party of the
Third district, Virginia, recognizes in Mr..
G.. NJ. Smithdeal a leader whom II is
proud TO follow, and whose elevation 10
the highest Office within the gift OF the
party in the district would be source
of unbOunded satisfaction TO its every
loyal member, not only because of MIR.
Smithdcals splendid devotion TO the party
whose principles he so ably represents,
but because of the personal qualities of
leadership which he possesses, and his up
right character and Christian manhood
which enable him to DO his duty in the
face Of adverse criticism and wilful mis-
representation; and we bear willing testi-
mOny 10 the fact that he has never
sought nomination by his party, and has
only accepted when II was unanimously
rendered and repeatedly urged upon him
as a call 10 duty, which he could not
decline without violating his sense of OBJ
legation to his maker and his fellowman.
Second. We further state that the en-
TIRE party III inc hlSlliAlt 81 ldi 10 us
wishes could be ascertaned was heartily
in favor of making congressional nOmi-
nation, and that Mr.. Smithdeal did no
more han his simple duty as district
chairman in calling the convention which
nominated Mr. Jones, and after his decli-
nation, the one which met Wednesday
evening and nominated himself; and we
further regard his acceptance Of the nomi-
nation under existing circumstances as
the best proof Of his high Christian cour-
age and devotion to the principles of his
party that could be given and we de
nOuncc and condemn any person or persons
who claim 10 be Prohibition voters bur
who wilfully misrcpresent Mr.. Smith
deal or the party, as was done in the
publication referred 20 above.
Third The above statement is in accord
lnCc with the unanimous instructions Of
the convention which created this COM
nittee.

TIE ARTICLE IN THE STATE,


The following is the interview with
Major Cutchns and the letter from the
members. which was published in the
State yesterday afternoon:
Major Sol. Cutchins was seen this morn
ing in reference to the publication in a
morning paper that there was a great deal
Of dissatisfaction among the members Of
Company Il, Of the Blues Battalion: that
Capt. George Ainsie would be asked 10
resign, and the company would not go in
the competitive drill al the Exposition.
He said the publication had caused him
great deal Of worry, as there were no
grounds for such rumors, and he did not
know where they originated. Some time
ago Captain Ainslie became discouraged
because he thought he could not secure
the requisite number Of men-tnirty-twO--
but AT a meeting last night several new
men enlisted, and now they will be drilled
every night, beginning tonight. until
October Sth inclusive Both companies
are going in the competitive drill, and
they are working hard for the event.

From time to time references are
seen in the daily papers, referring to
the difficulty experienced by the ferry
companies, car lines, ETC., in disposing
of enormous accumulations of ordinary
copper cents. The reader is very apt
to remember this, particularly if in
exchange for dollar bill he is re-
turned ninety-fve one-cent pieces by
a conductor. As a matter of fact, says
the New York Herald, there is no ex-
cuse for the item, much less for car
conductor or change-taker in unload
ing his weight of copper upon the al
ways more or less abused passenger.
The United States subtreasury, at
Wall and. Nassau streets, makes, and
has made it practice for years, of ex-
changing minor coin for United States
money of large denomination, and it
has many regular customers who are
so served. There are a number of GU
riors things about cents as they come
to the sub-treasury. In the first
place, they are quite extensively coun-
terfeited This may seem strange, as
the profit in counterfeit cent is neces-
sarily small. 1t is true, however, new
ertheless, and is supposed to be the
work of Italians, who, more largely
than any other nationality, seem to
favor the imitation of our minor and
subsidiary coin. The Brooklyn and
New Jersey ferry companies, the ele-
waited railroads of both New York and
Brooklyn and the various slot-machine
companies are regular customers for
the exchange of cents for. other money
at the sub-treasury. At times they
turn in enormous quantities, the slot
companies alone ranging between one
hundred and twenty-five and seven
hundred dollars day. AS might be
expected, all sorts of oddities in
the way of coin come in with the
quantity taken in the machines. In
addition to the counterfeits are scores
of mot one cents of war times, metal
discs and foreign copper, Austrian
money predominating. As the copper
cent is simply a token, no matter what
its condition is, it is redeemed at par
if it can in any way be identified as
Uuited States money The popularity
of the slot machine a year or so
ago brought about curious condi-
tion of affairs in the country. This
was nothing. short of scent famine. -
The headquarters of the company is in
New York, and all agents sent their
cents here for redemption, which
drained the country of its supply and
overstocxed the minor coin vaults of
the subtreasury here with cents.
