articles of the Joint traffic association an
nounced in this mornings papers be
signed, it will be crime against both
the antitrust law aud the Interstate
commerce law. don't know but that
the presidents of the roads Interested
are playing the game with a view to
learning whether or not Congress will
do ANYTHING for their relief. They have
put off signing it until the first Of the
year, after Congress shall have been IN
session month. As / said in recent
letter to President Cleveland The
proposed crime against the antitrust
and anti-pooling laws is public fact
as distinct and evident as the Cuban re-
bellion, which your Attorney General
eagerly labors to suppress The rail
road conspirators say their only motive
is to detect and punish violators of the
interstate commerce law, to protect
small shippers from determinations
and to act in harmony with the inter-
state commerce commission. According
to present appearances they have swal-
lowed that commission, and will soon
deyour pnhindered the substance of the
people"

sort of bill by which the tariff that was

Virginia republicans, here to-day, say
there will he lively times at the coming
meeting of the republican committee o.
their State at Petersburg, and that it
will be more like State convention
than committee meeting, as men from
every section of the State, from mount
ain to sea, will be present. AS hereto
fore stated in this correspondence there
are several aspirants for both the places
on the committee made vacant by the
death of General Malone. 1t is al
| ready as good as settled that those two
places will not be filled by the same man,
and that there will be fights for both
is apparent. The contest for the chair
manship of the committee is made with
reference tothe State convention, which
will be called to order by that chair
man, ard who, by reason of his posi-
ton, will have some influence in the
appointment of delegates to the ma
5ional republican convention, and be
likely to use it in favor of his favorite
for the Presidential nomination. The
vultures will be there, but there will
be no carca s,!fcr there are no State
offices to be filled, and that there will
be few orIno federal, ones is made pat
emit by the fact that there are
246 republican members of the
new U. S. House of Representa-
lives, while there are only 1876
offices at the disposal of that body.
The boss of the Virginia republican
party is dead, but there is self-consti-
tuted inner circle of that party that
would exercise the authority he had,
and though the public meeting OF the
committee has been called for the 9th
instant, this inner circle will meet and
make their arrangements on the Goth.
Mr.. John Wise, when here recently,
evidently inclined toward Governor
Mckinley as the republican Presidential
nominee, and Major Yost of Virginia,
who passed through here yesterday on
his way home from Philadelphia, also
seemed to favor a Western man fer

the democrats will be compelled to re-
nominate Mr.. Cleveland.
