to hear Capt. S. Albert, an ex-Russian
officer and Siberian convict relate his
experiences. The lecturer told a sim
pie and unvarnished tale whose very
lack Of rhetorical fiourishes made it
more impressive. He had served nine
years in the Russian army, the last

Special Correspondence of The Evening Star
ANNAPOLIS, Md, August -. 1886
The political situation in ANNAPOLIS and
Anne Arundel county is somewhat different
from the situation elsewhere in the stale
In one respect at least, in that very little
interest is manifested SO far in the cam
palgn, and there is no excitement over the
contest at all. Politics is not the one alb
sorbirg topic here. One can walk about
the streets all day without hearing a word
about the Wall street plutocrats," the
fall in the price of commodities" the
favored classes" or tine money changers
of Europe on the lips Of the passersby
While the groups OF loungelS about the
market or the public squares will be found
TO be talking On every other subject but the
election. In this Annapolis presents a de-
cIded contrast to her eighbors across On
the eastern Snore, where every third man
you meet is arguing over the money ques-
ton; and when people here do talk politics
they speak in 4 perfectly matter-of-fact
and everyday tone of voice. This is doubt
less not without significance.
The fifth congressional district, in which
Annapolis lies, is claimed by the republic
cans tc be a republican district and by the
democrats to be a demo cratic district. AS
matter If fact, il hos changed hands
back and forth during the last ten years
SO that the result is usually very close and
uncertain either way. The republicans
have already put their candidate, Sydney
E. Mudd, in the congressional field, and
the democrats are to hold their nominating
convention Thursday of this week in Bal
timore. Robert Moss of Anne Arundel

Mr.. Flower said in part:
This gathering is notice to the world that
the democratic party has not yet surren-

sansnip. There have been numerous in
stances IN political history where in the
name of party loyalty men have justified

has the movement failed. because when
analysed its inspiring influence was found
to be nothing higher than a desire to

ALABAMA FOR BRYAN,
The Democrats Refuse to Encourage
Fusion.

Special Correspondence of The Evening Star.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala, August 80 1896
Since the democratic gold convention at
Montgomery this week, and the populists
and republicans have shown their hands
with regard to congressional nominations,
political lines in the Alabama campaign
have been distinctly marked out. This
statement, however. it should be added, is
made on the presumption that the populist
state committee, which meets here Thurs
day, will do that which they are expected
to do viz: put out a Bryan and Watson
electoral ticket. This is said to be the
present program. The only change from this
course would, it is generally believed, be
the failure of the populists to take any &C
ton whatever with regard to an electoral
ticket. 1t is regarded as a pretty safe
thing that the pCpuists will not indorse
the democratic electoral ticket because of
the antagonism existing between the two
parties in Alabama.
The situation in this state at this time
sizes up as follows: The regular democrats
have out an electoral ticket and are about
to put out congressional candidates in all
nine districts. The gold democrats OPP
posed to the Chicago platform and nomi-
nees have named a full electoral ticket
and have avowed their purpose to have a
candidate for Congress In each district.
The republicans likewise have a full cleo
toTal tlcket, ana nave named candidates In
three of the nine districts-the fourth,
sixth and ninth. They will also nominate
one in the seventh district, and perhaps in
one or two others.
The republican congressional policy now
seems to be not to fuse with the populists
for Congress, as they did two years ago
but to make their own fight, but only in
the doubtful districts, where they think
they have show to win. The populists
have yet put out no congressional can
didates. nor have they named an electoral
ticket. They will probably nominate a
Watson and Bryan ticket to preserve their
identity. and in pursuance of their general
policy in this state to fight the organized
democracy. In addition, they will nomi-
nate candidates for Congress In the close
districts-that is, In those districts where
they think they are strongest and have a
chance to win. Already populist district
conventions have been arranged for In the
second, seventh and ninth districts while
they will undoubtedly put out candidates
In the third, fifth and sixth and proba bly
the eighth districts.
With this condition of affairs it will be
matter Of much doubt just what will be
the outcome of the congressional election
in nearly every district in the state. AS to
the result for President. the regular demo-
Gratis have no misgivings. The number of
populistS who will vote for Bryan and Sew
all, regardless of what their party organi-
zation does, and the number of gold demo-
Gratis who will refuse to support the In
dianapolis ticket, coupled with the fact
that there will be three electoral tickets
most probably in the field in opposition to
the Bryan and Sewall, leave but little room
