CONVENTION OR NOT.
THAT Is THE QUESTION wIfH THE
VIRGINIA REPUBLICANS.
COMMITTEE MEETS I
TO-DAY.
Leaders Gathering mt Lynchburg-
What General Walker snys-samc
tingent-The Negro Demand.

LYNCHBURG. VA, August T.-(Spe-
cial. )-Leading Republicans from various
sections Of the State arrived here to-day
to attend the meeting Of the Republican
State Committee tomorrow night Among
them are General James A. Walker. Col
onel James ID. Brady, g. j.. Bowden,
Judge Edmund Waddill. Edgar Allan,

Seldom has any meeting of the Repub-
lican Committee attracted such great and
general interest. Politicians all over
Virginia are waiting anxiously for the
result of the committees deliberations.
For some time past It has been an open
secret that large majority Of the COM
mittee was opposed to holding a State
convention OF the party. but despite this
fact there are those among the influen-
tial leaders here who say that certain
existing conditions may compel the ma
iority 10 abandon their policy of opposi-
ton, and favor a convention and the
nomination of a full State ticket.
WHAT WALKER SAYS.
General James a. Walker, who has
been mentioned IS a possible candidate
for Governor, was seen by the Dispatch
correspondent this afternoon. He stated
in a brief interview that he did not know
what action the committee would take
relative to the holding Of a State con-
ventlon. When asked his views on that
question, he said: Il am strongly in
favor of a convention IL should be-"
he said, "the policy OF any party with
principles to preserve It's organization
intact and be ready on all occasions TO
present candidates to represent and adj
vance those principles"
When asked If he thought his party
stood a good chance Of success in the
event a ticket should be nominated. he
replied: IF the election is conducted
fairly the Republicans Will carry the
State by a majority Of 5000. My district
will give the party at least 5000 ma
jority. / am i'm favor OF making the
fight on the platform Of fair and honest
elections. The contested election cases
before the Fifty-fourth Congress showed
that the most gigantic and outrageous
frauds were committed on the ballot
box by the Democratic party"
WILL BE DEFEATED.
General Walker said he believed from
information he had received that there
was great dissatisfaction with the
ticket nominated at Roanoke, as the
Populists and gold Democrats were ut
terly ignored" Il have" he added. let
ters from many prominent persons from
all sections OF the State. including
Populists and gold Democrats, declaring
their purpose to support tho nominees
Of the Republican party"
The indications are that the meeting
tomorrow night will be largely attend
ed. It seems 10 be practically conceded
tonight that the committee viii defeat
the proposition for a convention by a
large majority

of Emanuel Crull. Of Richmond, who
broke Jail at Harrisville. Richie county,
last Sunday, seems able 20 defy arrest.
He is accompanied by william Eckard.

inch Of country for mites around. Tho
men were seen together on Pennsboro'

but they discovered that they had been
seen and jumped of. This evening
man supposed 10 be Brown was seen near
Simmons Creek. Richie county. The re-
port was carried 10 Pennsboro'. where -
posse headed by two deputy shcriffs was
organized and started across the country
in the direction the supposed fugitive
was travelling. Up to 10 o'clock no word
had been received from them. II was
at first supposed Brown and Eckard were
trying to get to the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad. but Il is learned tonight that
a friend of Eckard carried the news TO
him that all approaches TO that road
were guarded. whereupon they changed
their plans and started across the coun-
try for the Ohio river. Eckard has many
friends along the route from Harrisvil!e
to the river. who would feed him and
Brown and secrete them In the daytime.
The Sheriff is making desperate efforts
TO capture the two murderers. as public
sentiment condemns his carelessness IN
letting them escape. II Eckard Is caught
he will surely be lynched II brought bacls
TO Harrisville. where his neck had an
exceedingly narrow escape when he was
first arrested. and IL Brown Is with him
he will suffer the same fate.
