tho silver question may have been ro-
tired from active politics before the next
Presidential campaign. and, with that
question out OF the way. there IS no rea-
son whatever why the two wings Of the
Democratic party IN Virginia may not
reunite IN the next state campaign.
There is really no division in the Demo-
cratic party Of Virginia upon local issues
that may not be satisfactorily adjusted.
The real bone Of contention is the Chi
cago platform. and. with that eliminated.
there is no occasion for discord in the
party organization.

Chicago platform. and tho Dispatch is
gracious enough 90 say that many Of them
were honest in their opposition. 20 naunt
in their faces the Chicago platform is
simply 90 drive them farther away.
We have therefore in au sincerity. sgg-
ecsted that national questions Doe left

LONDON, Oct. l1.-A meeting of tho Federated
Trades Unions was held at Carlisle this after
noon for the purpose OF discussing tho question
OF calling out all of the men composing tho
unions represented on Oct. Is to be in sympathy
with tho strike of the engineers.
II the question is decided in the affirmative It
means the stoppage Of thirty distinct indus
tries. including the boilermakers, shipwrights

makers, and the total number of men strike
will DO increased to 100000.
Tho meeting did not decide tho main question
OF calling out the trades unionists. but resolved
to appeal to Mr.. c. I. Ritchie. President OF the
Board OF Trade, to summon conference under
the Cancellation act of representatives of tho
Employers Federation and the unions. This
will delay tho crisis for at least two weeks.
1t has been said repeatedly that the Employ
ers' Federation went into the present fight
with tho intention of smashing tho trades
unions. but the members disclaim any such
desire. The Executive Committee of the
Federation has issued a statement affirm
ing that 1t believes that Mr.. Siemans
OF Siemans Brothers & Co. (Limited), who is now
on the Continent, was incorrectly reported the
other day when the papers asserted that he had
said that the Federation wanted to get rid Of
trade unionism altogether.

VARIETY IN WHIPPINGS,
Bach County in Delaware Has Its Own style
OF Pubiic FioEGinE.


OF Pubiic FioEEinE.
From the Wilmington Morning Netrs.
GEoRGETowN. Oct. s.-Tkree prisoners will
be whipped and three will stand in the pilory
here to- morrow, and it will DO an event in the
town. Whippings in Sussex county are fewer
in number than in New Castle county, and the
method OF inflicting corporal punishment Is
entirely different. In fact. the method differs
in all three counties. In New Castle county
there Is a pillory which stands all uf the time.
but in Kent and Sussex counties the pillory at
tachment is put to the whipping post as needed.
In New Castle county man can be whipped on
the ground while "A man is in the pillory on tho
second floor OF the post. In Kent and Sussex
counties this cannot be done, and the per-
formance therefore lasts longer.
In Sussex county the whipping post is near
the Court House and some distance from the
Jail. 1t is in an open space. and the crowds 10
not have to pass in through the gates to see the
whippings- The lashes are administered with
tails as in this county. This is more merciful,
but prisoner feels the force of the stick. In
Kent county rawhide is used. How there
came to be three distinct ways of administering
lashes in the three different counties is more
than any one can tell but the custom exists.
In Sussex county the man in the pllory stands
on the ground instead OF on a platform, as in
this county. The pillory Is merely a bar ar.
rangement placed in the post. When the prs-
whipping post Is very plain affair. and no ono
would know what 1t was unless told. In Kent
county 1t is more elaborate, and resembles an
old.fashionod pump.

tho Accounts OF the System.

Allegations In the suit for Examination OF
tho Accounts OF the System.
Thomas F. Ryan said yesterday regarding the
action which he has begun in the United States
Circuit Court OF the Eastern district of Vir.
gina for an examination OF The officers and ac-
counts of tho Seaboard Air Line system: Tho
situation in n nutshell is this: own moro than
one-quarter of the common stock OF the Sea-
board and Roanoke Railroad Company. r. c.
HOFFMAN. President of the company. owns. ac-
cording to his own statement only 2Os shares.
Having so large an interest in the property
am naturally desirous of knowing that 1t is
properly managed. Upon making inquiries
discovered that nearly all the supplies of the
company arc purchased from r. C. Hoffman
81 Co. of Baltimore. In other words found
that the President Of the company was buying
from his own firm, which 10 engaged in no other
business that know of. and supplies no other
railroad so far as can learn. practically all of
the supplies OF the Seaboard Company. Tho
action which have brought calling for an ex-
animation OF the accounts is supported by tho
affidavit OF a former purchasing agent OF tho
Seaboard Company, to tho effect that he was
obliged to purchase nearly all of the supplies
from r. G. Hoffman & Co.. and that in doing SO
he was Obliged to pay considerably more than
the market price of the esupplies thus purchased.
1t seems to me that, aside from the obvious
buying supplies from his own firm. the sworn
statements OF the purchasing agent, who has
acted for years under Mr.. Hoffman's directions,
made an examination or accounts imperative in
the interest. not only OF myself, but of every
other stockholdcr. therefore began the action
referred to. and tho Circuit Court has appointed
a Master in Chancery for the examination of
both the books and tho officers of the company
This was the only method by which i could
obtain satisfactory Information regarding a
condition of affairs which. on its face seems 10
be without parallel in railroad management"

Notwithstanding the deals by which gold
Democrats and Republicans have been put for
ward to attract the votes of loyal Democrats and
deceive them into voting for their most bitter
enemies, the masses OF Democratic voters are
true to the principles enunciated in tho Chicago

last year. Moreover, his ticket will be nomi-
mated by the necessary 5000 signatures legally
required on the petition.
ut is absurd to suppose that Hills Demo-
cratic state Committee will permit the Demo-
cratic machine TO allow their county and bor-
9ugh tickets TO be placed under the name Of
Henry, George. The so-called George ticket
