 Who win be President?
 There Is considerable gossip as to the officers of the convention. Very few are disposed to believe that either the governor or Senator Morgan will offer for the presl- dency. The three names most discussed are Speaker Charles E. Waller, John B. Knox and Tennent Lomax.
 The President Was Pleased
 Some local comment has been attracted by private letter which has just reached Montgomery from Washingon. The enc mics of the governor have been loud and long in critieising the speech he made in welcoming the president to Montgomery. His speech, they declared, was so out Of place in its allusions to the confederacy as to be nothing short of an insult to the guest. Among other things, the letter, which is from prominent newspaper man, says:
 ''I saw the president since hs return, and had quite a little talk with him about his trip south. He was high in his praise or the welcome extended him by the people, He spoke particularly of his visit to Ala bama and especially of the kind greeting at Montgomery. His reference to the gov ernor was most cordial and complimentary, saying he expected to see him in the senate in the near future"
 It would seem the president failed To catch the offensive part to the governor s welcome just as did Secretary Wilson on the occasion in Tuskegee last year when the same critics charged the governor with outrag:ng the laws of hospitality in wei coming the secretary to Alabama

The statement made by Mr.. George z.
Anderson, the west-Cary-street grocer,
to Commissioners William H. Sands or
Thursday. that 5000 had been stolen
from him so long ago as the 22d Of last
December. was the subject yesterday OF
much comment.
Mr.. Anderson filed a deed Of assignment
In the Clerks Office of the Chancery
Court December 20, 1897. His liabilities
were 5000, and the assets consisted Of
the usual stock Of a grocery store, with
chattels and furnishings. The creditors
were put in classes of preference. as is
usual in such cases. but some were not
satisfied. and made application to Judge
p. r. Wexford, Of the Circuit Court of
Henrico county, TO have Anderson make
a statement OF his financial affairs. Judge
Wexford issued the order for him to ap-
pear Mr.. Sands and make under oath
such a statement. Mr.. Daniel Grinnan
was attorney for a number Of creditors,
and through his questions the robbery OF
so large a sum Of money was made pub

PROTEST FROM THE GOVERNOR.
Again Inveighs Against Landing
Wounded Mt Old Point.

Governor Tyler yesterday forwarded to
Surgeon-General %Sternberg, of the army.
a protest against the landing Of more
troops from Cub at Old Point.
The protest, which is rather lengthy,
goes into the details quite fully, and pre-
sents strong reasons against the landing
Of troops there from the feyer-infected
district Of Cuba. He dwells particularly
upon the fact that besides endangering
the lives of the people of the State and
country at large, the breaking out of an
epidemic at Old Point would almost GER
tainly cause the suspension OF govern
ment work at the Norfolk navy-yard,
would retard the completion of the war
ships at Newport News. and would prac-
tically disman Fort Monroe. one of the
most important points of defence on the
Atlantic coast.
Doctors Jones n Pettus, the health
officers at Newport News and Old Point,
respectively, have also made strong pro-
tests On the lines followed by the Gov
ernor.

WASHINGTON. July 2s.--The change

Mrs. GiII's Excursion a Success.

The excursion given to the seashore
yesterday by Mrs. Joseph r. Gill, the
indefatigable superintendent of the Male
Orphan Asylum, was one Of the most
successful outings of the summer. 1t was
decidedly the best excursion conducted
by Mrs. Gill this season and a happy
precursor OF those which are to follow.
The train OF nine coaches was filled, hut
not uncomfortably crowded, and all spent
a pleasant day at either Old Point, Ocean
View, or Virginia Beach. The weather
was clear and the sea-breezes tempered
the intensity of the heat. The jolly party
returned at II o'clock last night, hay-
