WHITNEY SERVES NOTICE.

Mr.. VIM. G. Whitney was asked in
New York yesterday if in his judg-
ment there would a third ticket nomi-
mated by sound money democrats. He
replied
81 think events and the course of the
republican leaders are making it inevi-
table. The general situation is far
worse to-day, in my opinion, that it
was ten days ago. The republican
managers and candidates have shown
no realizing sense of the situation.
They have failed to avail themselves of
great opportunity for benefting the
country. II the present condition Of
affairs continues for any length of
time, sound money democrats are
bound to organize, and it cannot be
prevented. Mr.. Mckinley" says Mr..
Whitney, continues to discuss the
tariff, which has ceased to be an actual
issue in this campaign as completely
as slavery. 1t is difficult enough
for democrat to contemplate the pos
sibility of voting for Mckinley or to
look upon him as the leader of q great
cause, and the present course of the
republicans is tending to make it i'm.
possible" Mr.. Whitney reminds the
republican leaders that their own party
is seriously infected with free silver
enthusiasm, and warns them that the
solid silver vote should be met by The
united sound money vote. This can
never be-" he adds, ''if, in addition to
Mckinley, democrats must vote for
McKinleyism and all that it represents.
The issues of the past should be buried
until the country has been rescued
from its present peril"

DIABoLICAL APPARITIoNs have be-.
come so frequent and alarming in one
of the Departments in France that an
investigation of them has been provid-
ed for by scientific society of that coun-
try. The prevailing impression of the
people there concerning them, as they
express it, is that the ''devil is abroad"
Whether he be or not in France, there
is no doubt OF the fact that he has been
turned loose in the United States, and
is now walking up and down, and,
what's more, is being received with
welcome hands.

COURT OF APPEALS.
The following opinions were handed

'dowa in the Court of Appeals yesterday:
Bryan VS.. Hart. From the Hastings
Court of the city Of Roanoke. Affirm
ed by divided court. The judge Of
1.-THE Corporation Court of the city of
Roanoke removed q commissioner of
accounts without cause and appointed
another in his place. From this order
50 removing the former commissioner an
appeal was taken to this court. The
members of the court were equally d.
vided on the question of the judges
right to do so, and the order was,
therefore, affirmed.
Noel VS.. Noel. From the Hastings
Court of the city of Radford. Affirmed.
Opinion by Judge Cardwell. The main
question upon which the decision in the
case turned was whether or not section
1920 of the code provides that process
|, to begin an action shall be issued before
the rule day to which it is made return
able. Held that the said statute is man
datory; that the writ issued in this case
on the rule day to which it was made
returnable was void writ; that all pro-
ceedings thereon we're void, and
the order of the court remanding the
case to rules for new process to
issue gave the writ no vitality.
as the law confers no such power on
the court. 2. The issuing of the writ is
the beginning of a suit, and until valid
writ is issued there is no suit pending,
whereby the statute of limitation is
stopped from running against the debt
sued on.
Mount VS.. Radford Trust Company.
From the Hastings Court of the city of
Radford. Amended and affirmed. Opin-
ion by Judge Buchanan. Held: l. A
stakeholder in corporation cannot in
stitute suit in equity to protect the
corporate property, unless the corpora
ton has actually or virtually refused to
institute the suit. 2. Before court Of
equity will entertain a suit the stock
holder must allege that he has made q
request or demand upon its board Of
directors to bring the suit, and they
have refused to do so, or he must allege
such state of facts as will show that it
is reasonably certain that the corpora
ton will not bring the suit, and that a
demand to sue would be useless, 3. A
court has no right to hear the case upon
the merits upon motion to dissolve an
Injunction in vacation.
Engelby VS. Harvey. From the Hus-
tings Count Of the city Of Radford. Re-
versed. Opinion by Judge Rely.

A FINANCE committee has been ap-
pointed by the managers Of the McKin-
lev campaign to raise election funds,
the combined wealth of the members of
which, at low estimate, is one humid
red million dollars. OF course most, if
not all of them, are interested in trusts,
combines and monopolies, engendered
and fostered by special legislation,
which they naturally desire to be con-
tinued. But it would be unnatural for
unfavored poor people to further the
ends of this committeeman is, unless
they be debauched with money.

burned last night and are total loss.
The fire broke out in the brush room
of the mill at II p. m. 1t was beyond
control before the fire department got

rapidity that every effort of the fire.

great height, tapping over River street,
upon which the building stood, and
communicating to the granary and
Duckworth's warehouse, occupied by
G. III. Gilbert s. Co., wholesale grocers.
The schooner Douglass Gregory, which
arrived yesterday from Baltimore with
cargo of coal, and the Norwegian bark

adjoining the granary and in line of
the flames, and we're with difficulty
got out of reach of the fire. There was
q slight breeze when the fire started,
but stiff wind had sprung up end at l
o'clock this morning the fire threatened
the adjoining warehouses and Thomas

MIR. ELKINs, the republican U. S.
Senator from West Virginia, says the
supporters of the national democratic
platform are regulators OF just obliga-
lions and are against maintaining the
national credit. Having said this, he
Immediately voted to repudiste the
whole of West Virginia's just share of
the debt of the State from which she
was stolen. For audacious efrontery
Mr.. Elkins is peculiar.

THE BoLTING democrats in the East
as well as in the West now seem to be
more intent than ever upon running q
Presidential ticket of their own. Well,
every true democrat, so far from object.
ing, sincerely hopes they may do so, for
thereby their small number and utter
ineffectiveness would be exposed in such
glaring colors that thereafter they
would cease to be factors in any politi-
cal contest.

FRIDAY EVENING. JULY "a, 1896

The BOILERS are getting scared, and
are calling upon the republicans to re-
lieve them by abandoning their own
party's principles, so that they can vote
She republican ticket without stultify'
ing themselves. But their appeals are
in vain, and because they are, Mr.. Whit
ney tells the republicans they have no
conception OF the strength of the free
silver feeling among all parties in the
North, and that if they make no conces-
sions to them, but force them to nomi-
nate another ticket. the jig will be
up. The jig is up with the boilers, any
how, whether the republicans come to
their relief or not, and Mr.. Whitney
evidently now sees that it is. "One ray
of light the closing eye receives, and
wisdom only takes what folly leaves"

JOHN LANGsToN says when McKin-
lev is elected there will be negro
Judge in Washington, and Perry Car
son says when the republicans come to
their own in that city the carts and
wagons owned by negroes there will
be employed in city work. Certainly,
but why man should be appointed a
Judge because he is a negro, or why
teams should be employed because
their owners are negroes, can be told
better by white men who, though call
ing themselves democrats, say they will
vote for Mckinley, than by anybody
else.

If SUCH pronounced gold standard
men of affairs as Senators Brice and
German can write, speak, work and
vote for the Chicago ticket, it seems a
little strange that democrats, infinitely
less interested in the financial condi-
ton of the country, should revolt at that
ticket, and fly from its uncertain evils
TO the certain ones that will result from
republican supremacy, especially in the
South.

THE FREE SlLN Elk CON ENIlON.
The silver convention at st. Louis
yesterday evening simply dawdled
along, listening to the speeches and
transacting trivial business, in pursu.
ance of their prearranged programme,
remaining in session in the hope of in
huencipg the action of the populist
convention in the direction of endors-
ing silver and the Chicago democratic
ticket.
When the afternoon session opened,
Chairman St. John announced that
owing to the fact that the peoples par.
ty had not effected its permanent or
ganizatioD, no conference committee
had been appointed. This would ne
cessitate delay, but he hoped the dele
gates would be patient.
Speeches were again in order. Mr..
Turner, of Kansas, said that if the ses.
sions were protracted, many of the del
egates would be compelled to go home.
The convention adjourned until to-day
after the adoption of resolution
That the national committees of the
silver. democratic and peoples parties
be requested to refer TO and designate
the Bryan-Sewall ticket, whenever
practicable, as "The American Union

WASHINGTON. July "a.
The New Yord agents of the foreign
bankers, up to noon to-day, had sup
piled the Treasury with sixteen million
in gold. This just restores the gold re-
serve to its required legal amount, but
it is not expected that it will remain SO
very long.
Republicans from the Alexandria dis
tr ct, here to-day, say that Judge Sbu-
mate OF Fauquier county is among tbs
candidates fer The republican congress
sional nomination in that district, and
that there may be one or two negro
candidates. They also say that while
MIR. Agnew is not candidate, he will
not decline the nomination if it be ten
dered him, and that some of his friends
are trying to effect that object.
1t is reported here that Secretary
Carlisle and Postmaster General Will
son, both of whom are Southern men,
and who therefore couldn't well afford
to 60 against their section, will, like
Secretary Smith, vote the national
ticket of their party, but that all the
other members of the Presidents cab-
net, including Secretary Herbert, who
is also Southern man, and the Presi-
dent himself, will stultify themselves
by helping to elect republican Presi-
dent.
Republicans from the first Virginia
district, here to-day, say Mr.. Tyler, the
republican congressional candidate in
that district, is very worthy and in
telligent young gentleman, but knows
little or nothing of the ways of politics,
and stands little or no chance of cleo
tioD, though Il. will be bled by those
who induce him to bellete that he has.
A democrat from Staunton, Virginia,
here to-day, says he saw report OF :.
silver State convention at Herndon, in
the GAZETTE recently, in which it was
stated that Mr.. Absalom Koiner had
been appointed delegate to the ma
tional silver convention at st. Louis,
but couldn't understand it, as MI. Koiner
is now and always has been demo.
crat, was represented in the Chicago
convention, and intends to support both
the platform and the ticket of that con-
vention.
