Mount Holly lost to the PENNSYLVANIA
Railroad ball team on Saturday principal
ly by weak hitting, although Gleason 8
error was responsible for one run. Ker-
vim and Black both pitched excellently,
keeping the hits well scattered. The
game was intensely exciting from start TO
finish and was an ideal contest for the
spectators to witness
No runs were made until the eighth
inning. when Leonard, who got the only
base on balls allowed by Keryln, scored
on pretty two-bag drive by Black. The
visitors tailed one in the ninth on Glea-
sons error, and the score was then a tie.
Mount Holly got one hit In the tenth, a
two-bagger by Jones, but it was wasted,
the side being retired on easy infield
grounders. In their half of the tenth the
visitors made three hits and scored the
winning run.
Kingdom made two sensational catches
of difficult fires and Jones got two two
baggers.
Each team has now won game and an
effort will be made to have the third
played before the season ends.
The score follows:

SPANS CABINET CRISIS,

The question involved in the Spanish
Cabinet crisis that most interests this
country is what il likely TO be the ef-
feet of the crisis upon the fate of Cuba.
1t is understood that Sagasta, the Liberal
leader, Is welded TO the idea that he
can pacify Cuba by granting her autono-
my and satisfy the United States by APP
pointing Campos TO carry out the Cuban
reforms.
The substitution Of Campos for Butcher
Weyler as an agent for pacfyng Cuba
would doubtless lead to a better feei-
ing between this country and Spain. and
would materially weaken the cause of
the extreme jingoes. Yet it is ques-
ton whether the feasibility of the au-
t6nomy policy is not a thing OF the past.
Campos might have been able TO pacify
Cuba by the reform process had he not
been recalled, but his successor has by
his cruelties alienated from the Spanish
Crown many of the most influential Au-
Economists on the island. Autonomy
could not now depend upon Cuba for
anything like the support, numerical or
moral, that could have been attracted
before Weyler's reign Of terror. In
short, II would appear from the situation
to-day that Spain must choose between
the alternatives of giving up the island
or annihlatng the patriots.

He Prefers Private Life.
CNorfolk Landmark.J

DR.. Thomas II. Barnes, the distin-
guished and popular ex-senator from
Nansemond, was in the city yesterday.
The Doctor has been frequently mem
toned of late in connection with the
nomination for ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS on
the Democratic ticket, which VIII be
chosen by the convention TO be held at
Roanoke next August; and he has had
many letters and personal requests from
prominent gentlemen in various parts OF
the State, including the Valley and Pied
mont sections, urging him to allow his
name to 20 before the convention. Dr.
Barnes's prominence his long and useful
services 10 the Commonwealth, and his
great popularity make it entirely natu-
raj that. when the party honors are 10
be bestowed his name should occur 10
his friends and admirers, who are both
numerous and influential In every por-
ton Of the State.
While here DR.. Barnes discussed this
subject among his intimate friends with
entire unreserve. He appreciates fully
the kindness and attachment OF his
friends in suggesting this new political
honor. but he will not under any cir
cumstances. allow his name 10 be used
i'm connection Herewith. In this deter
mination his mind is unalterably fixed.
He is out Of active politics, he says;
and. while the prosperity and welfare
of Virginia are as near to his heart as
ever. he hopes TO serve her hereafter In
private life. The Doctors infexible de-
cision will be a source Of great regret
There is no man in Virginia politics who
is better fitted in ability and in strength
Of character for any office, no matter
how high, that the people have within
their gift.

PRIMARIES AND GOLDITES.

The Richmond Times, in its issue OF
yesterday, counsels gold Democrats TO
keep out Of the Democratic primaries;
but we hope they will not follow its
advice.
There are but two great parties in this
country, and whoever does not act with
the Democrats almost necessarily gives
aid and comfort to the Republicans. Bet
ter far that the gold Democrats should
affiliate with our party, favoring free sill
yer as it does, than that they should
affiliate, or halfway affiliate, with the
sectional party which is now engaged in
putting a monstrous tariff upon us.
We believe the Chicago platform is to-
day more popular than it was last fall;
but if the gold Democrats cannot wholly
approve it, let them consider that neither
can they approve the Republican plat
form. The great majority of the gold
Democrats of this State would vastly pre-
fer to see Virginia governed by free sill
Yer Democrats than by goldite high
tariff Republicans and that being the
cas-, they should use their votes and
influence to have the best possible State
ticket and the best possible legislative
ticket nominated and elected. Better for
them to take pot-luck with us than with
our ancient enemy.
Let them take the same sensible posi-
ton that the Democratic debt-payers
took after our party accepted the policy
of readjustment in 1888. We know OF
none who pursued that course who have
ever regretted it, and we predict the
same happy result for all gold Demo
Gratis who join in our primaries and In
all other movements OF the Democratic
party of Virginia this year.
Therefore. we say don't follow the ad-
vice Of the Times.

TELLING FIGURES.

A revised statement of the receipts
and expenditures OF the government for
the month OF May has been issued. and
Il makes an interesting exhibit. the
figures cannot. OF course, be reasonably
compared with the figures OF Marcn ana
April, seeing that owing TO the scare
over threatened retroactive tariff legis-
lation. the customs receipts ran up alb
normally during those months. But they
compare most favorably with the figures
OF 1896 and 1925. The customs receipts
for last month amounted to Sl6.Sso,0n,
against sl09i97g3 in May, 1896, and sl2,-
s74.55S in 1895, and the total receipts
for May, 1897 stand at s2J,797,Sso, against
S2iGiS.7l7 in 1896, and s25,2I2,O7s In 1888.
This is an Improvement Of S,l53,67S upon
the figures of last year, and of si52o,5l2
upon those Of two years ago.
The expenditures for May. 1897. were
above those for the corresponding months
Of the past two years. but the excess is
not material. The expenditures amounted
to s29,lO9,259 this year against s2S,426,5s2
in May, 1896, and s2s55s,2lS in May 1895,
an increase of $SS2,667 on last years
figures, and s55l,O46 on those Of two
years back.
Putting the receipts and the expendi-
lures together. says the Boston Herald
there is a surplus of $685., i31 in the month
just ended, an exhibit which may look
low when placed beside the surplus Of
s.. ,037 recorded in April. and the sur
plus of s9.O0tG64 that was attained in
March, but which makes very favorable
appearance when contrasted with the
deficit Of si47l, 0O5 reported in May, 1896,
and the deficit of sS,974,266, noted in
May. 1895.
These figures constitute striking COM
ment on the Republican tariff policy.
No stronger argument than they present
could be adduced in favor Of letting the
tariff alone and instituting currency re-
form. The Wilson tariff is not n perfect
measure, but it has so far vindicated
itself as to leave hardly a doubt that
had it been supplemented by currency
system adequate to the demands of bust
ness general revival of prosperity
would. ere this. have commenced.

Endorsed the canvass OF "iiiianh ''

and pledged him the support OF uii'''
Democracy In the State.
So II seems that our brethren In Ken
lucky had no misgivings as TO their guy
about the platform. And. they appear u
have more than half way commit'eo
themselves to the denomination OF MI
BRYAN. When the Democratic State COM
mittee was recently in session in this
city. there was an interchange Of views
upon the part of some Of its members
as TO the action proper TO be taken
upon the Chicago platform by our con-
vention. Some were for endorsing that
platform out and out-from n 10 H'
Others, however favored taking the free
silver plank and two or three OF the
other prominent planks Of the PLATFORM
and giving them special and emphatic APP
prevail.
Among those favoring this course were
gentlemen whose influence has been very
great in all the conventions Of our party
held in recent years. IL was their opln-
ion that some of the subjects Of transient
interest treated in the Chicago platform
might well be passed by without objec-
ton from any quarter. Possibly that
view may prevail-possbly not.
The lead taken by Kentucky indicates
the existence of popular opinion which
demands that all of the principles set
forth at Chicago shall be reafiirmed.
However those formerly known as gold
Democrats, and who did not act with
our party last fall. but who propose to
do so this year. will not care which OF
the two plans is adopted.
Some of them, we believe, have been
thoroughly converted TO the free silver
belief and others who have not been, VIII
support our nominees. Notwithstanding
the fact that a free silver platform will
be adopted by the Roanoke convention.
We understand the Danville Register and
the Alexandria Times both to take this
position. Here IN Richmond. we are con-
WINGED that many gold Democrats viii
certainly fall into line with us in the
coming contest, vastly preferring to take
| pot-luck with us rather than with the
