The Democrats held love feast at
the Old Opera House last night and
listened to speeches from both success
full and defeated candidates. The re-.
marks were intersperced with music BY
the Machine Works Band, which gave
short parade before the speaking began.
When the proceedings opened the
Ophra House was not half filled, but the
people kept dropping in, and by o'clock
the house was filled La the audience
there were u number OF Republicans,
among whom were several candidates,
and they seemed to enjoy tho illusions
made to their party by the various
speakers.
The meeting was called to order by
K. Randolph Hicks, who stated that an
erroneous impression had gone abroad
that this was a ratification meeting.
This was not correct. he said. The
Democrats held their ratification on
the 18th instant and this was love
feast He then introduced Mr.. s. E.
Jones as the next mayor of Roanoke.
Mr.. Jones was received with great
applause and made spirited speech in
which he called upon all the Demo
Gratis in the city to get out and work
for the success Of the ticket.
Addresses were then made by Lucian
e.. Cocko, James S. Groves and c. b.
Moomaw, the debated candidates in the
primary for mayor. All three Of these
gentlemen made stirring addresses, in
which they pledged themselves to the
support OF the ticket, and asked their
friends who voted for them in the pri-
mary TO work for the puccess Of the
party in the coming election.
Judge W. S. Gooch, tho successful
candid late for commemorative attorney,
was the next speaker. He made q short
address. in which he asked that all
Democrats work for tho success of the
ticket, and he was confident that it
would be successful
lie was followed by j. T. Yongo, Row
B. Smith, Thomas NJ. Wood, Judge A.
j. Brand and G.. w. Crumpo cker, his ad-
versaries in the late primary.
Chairman Hicks stated that Col. J,
Hoge Tyler had been invited to be pres
emit at the meeting. but was unable to
do SO, and introduced Hon. j. Allen
Watts as his substitute. Mr.. Watts
made rousing speech in which he gave
the history of the Demo cratic party in
Virginia. In speaking OF the local cleo.
ton he said that every man who went
into the primary should support the
ticket and he did not think they could
honestly or honorably dodge the issue.
Mr.. Watts speech was enthusia tically
received, and at it's conclusion the meet
ing adjourned.

RICHMOND, April 27.-The Richmonds
wrested the second game of ball from
the Roanokes to-day, but in so doing
they were very materially assisted by
the elements, two men being allowed to
score 10 the fifth inning while heavy
shower was falling Just why this was
done is probably ono of those things
that will never be explained.
One UNIQUE feature OF to days game
was the action OF Umpire Wharton,
There were several kicks made against
MS decisions by the visiting club, and
when in the second inning Tate made a
protest against a minor ruling Mr.. Uma
plre got huify and, VIII lie the striker was
at the bat. ne, without a moments
warning, quit the field and gave no ex-
planation whatever Of his action. TIL.
Phillips was substituted and the game
was continued.
An exciting accident occurred In the
fourth inning. Kahn nit to right field,
and by some misunde rstanding of the
ooacher's instructions, Everson and
Smith both started on a run for the
sphere. They came together with q
crash that could be heard all over the
held, and both vent down.
Everson secured the bali, however.
Both were badly bruised about the head
ana lace, Smith sustaining n severe cut
over the left eye. Nothing daunted,
however, b,tn continued 10 play. The

While the vote was being taken a
mber of colored voters arrived, and as
there were several candidates for justice

After the nominations had been an

feated candidate for squire was recoq-
nized and he proceeded to make
speech which, judging by the vociferous
applause he received, may be taken as
defining tho position OF the colored
voters. After stating that he accepted
the ticket and that it would be sup
ported by his race, he continued, turn

/ believe, although I cannot speak
positively, that that proposition will be
accepted.
Teller objected to Harris request for
unanimous consent, basing his objec tion
on the argument that no matter in what
shape the bill might be passed by the
Senate 1t would be modified in confer
ence to meet the objections of Demo-
cratic Senators who were now dissatis-
fed.
Voorhees, broke in with the declara-
ton that so far as no knew there was
not particle Of authority for the state
ment, or a word of truth in 1t, that
now bill was in process of preparation,
or would be offered in few days, or
weeks or months.

with some little show of excitement,
that the statement of the Senator
from Rhode Island is not true"

II will leave that question to be de-
cided by the events IF the next thirty
