THE MASSEY CONTEST.
There are many interesting contests
on. The ono that Is attracting the most
attention is that over the office OF Su-

this fight. He came TO Richmond yes

Mr. Massey beaten, which IS denied by
the Masseyites.
MASSEY AND ANTI-AIASSEY.
This fight may be summed IN saying
IL is Massey and anti-Massey. There IS
no question about the fact that there Is
a strong sentiment against Mr.. Massey.
But no one can tell now whether or not
this sentiment Is stronger than that in
favor OF the Superintendent. The eau
Gus will have TO decide this matter. All
OF those who are opposing Mr.. Massey
are not for DR.. SOuthall. He is the
strongest of the opposition candidates up
to date bat there are others in the race.

manded. in the name OF the German En-
perOr, that Lueders be set at liberty, also

lister added that for every other day Lue-
ders was kept a prisoner after October

would demand an indemnity Of $500 in

grant the Minister'S demand. ana Lue-
ders remained In prison SIX days longer.
