LINN'S CONFESSION.
'ihe Report Published Yesterday
True In Every RcSpcrf

3 The announcement yesterday that
Linn had made a confession to the Com
monwealth's attorney ana his asso-
cilteS caused great excitement. and pu-
pers were eagerly sought after aud re-
pOrterS closely questioned
Ihcrr is no mistake, but all the de-
tallS OF the confession cannot be given
at this time.
1t is said that the attorneys were in
dlSnhnt when they first read the artI-
Gle, and one remarked that Il man
could not have Il secret. Another said :
These men are taking too much liber-
~. One attorney told Il newspaper
man that he neither confirmed or de-
MED the statement made, ana that he
was not responsible for leakage.
one OF them, more generous than the
rest, said in answer 10 Il question as to
whether he thought that the reporter
knew anything of the affair, ana if he
was not surprised at the article when
nc saw the paper, said: Yes, was
dumbfounded, because l never thought
mat you knew anything or the con
fession. I'ut l will give you credit for
your enterprise. You did lust what I
would have done"
The reporter then asked to be allowed
to see the confession. This was refused.
The scribe further learned that in the
confession Linn gives an account of all
The fires around here. including Green
ana London streets, and all that have
occurred in the past eight months; also
u number Of robberes covering a period
OIL eighteen months. There are a. num-
Der OF startling developments in the
confession, but the public will have to
wait until the time for the trial to take
place to learn all the particulars
In the meantime The Virginiau will
give such facts as il can gather. The
reporter has the satisfaction Of know
"a 70.
and to-day are correct in every ~.

Whereas, the Democratic Executive

vote recorded was less than a quorum
Of the committee.
large number Of the Democrats Of this
city, the action OF the committee is
fraught with danger to the best interests
or the Democratic party and is at vari-
ance with the policy adopted by the
great body Of the party in the coun-
ties and other cities OF the Common
wealth; therefore be It
resolved. That we. the Democratic
citizens of the city Of Portsmouth in

press our deep disapproval or the action
OF the committee.
That we condemn the system Of pri-
mary elections which seeks to exclude
from the primaries any qualified white
voter who would pledge himself to sup
port lis nominees, and especially those
who pay taxes for the support of the
city. We declare such system to be
mat KIND Of taxation without repre-
sentatlon, against which our fore
fathers successfully fought and against
which we stand ready to fight
Ihat we condemn the system. OF mu-
nicipal administration, which expends
thousands Of dollars annually upon our
streets. but eXpend it in such an I'M
Sk!ilful and improvdent manner that
but little benefit results and our streets
are sloughs in wet weather and dust
heaps in dry weather
Ihat we condemn the system Of NUM-
c:pal administration which uneuually
distributes the large amount Of money
annually expended for labor, by lpaying
al fEaty tn,
stead OF dividing the money among a
larger number of men who would seek
me employment for wages paid in other
places for the same kind Of work.

10 find relief from the system of munj

our taxes more than 80 per cent. in five
years, ana gives us no adequate account

increasing.
Resolved, further, That we ask the CO.
operation OF the citizens to correct the
existing evils.
And be 1t further resolved. That a
