THE RICHEY MYSTERY.
Attachments Sued Out Against His
PrOperty-PoIiticaI Notes.

WOODSTOCK, VA, September s.
Special THE Richey mystery assumed
a new phase here to-day, when several
attachments at law and chancery were
issued from the Circuit Court Clerks
office against the estate of the missing
man. NJ. Coffman, cashier OF the Shen-
andoah County Bank, OF this place, was,
upon petition of Il. e. Richey, wife OF
the absentee, appointed receiver OF the
business. and gave bond in the penalty
OF $4,000. He took charge of the stores
and the business.
WAS FINANCIALLY EMBARRASSED.
From the attachments filed, it appears
that Richey has many obligations out
standing. and the amount OF his indebted
ness will run into the thousands.
Heretofore he lad always met his nills
when due and frequently discounted tnem
before coming due This. coupled
with the fact that he left a paper among
his effects disposing of his property, in
the event OF his not returning from New
York, has strengthened the opinion that
there has been no foul play, but that
Richey Is absent of his own accord.
HE HAS CONSIDERABLE PROPERTY
IL is stated, however, that 1t was his
habit to give instructions, upon leaving
home, disposing OF his effects. should ne
not return. He has two large store
rooms well stocked with general mer-
chandise. Richey has had the confidence
OF the public in all matters and while

or other valuable consideration, or prD-
mise, or agree TO pay, or otherwise give
either directly or indirectly, any valuable

after the day of the primary, in con-
sideration of the vote of such person or Of
his influence or services in seeking to Sc
cure or control the votes of others in

WEST VIRGINIA DEBT.

The organization in New York of COM
mittee to receive in trust and prosecute
a compromise of the securities known as
"West Virginia deferred" certificates has
aroused bitter discussion in that State.
West Virginia Democrats, as rule,
look upon the movement with disfavor
They arc of the opinion that the present
time has been chosen TO inaugurate il
because the Republicans are In power in
that State However, they know that it
will take some years to settle the ques-
lions at issue, and they propose TO elect
no man to the Legislature whose views
are not in accord with public sentiment
upon this subject. Judging from what we
see in the West Virginia papers-Demo-
cratic papers especially-the people would
be willing to pay but a triflng sum, If
anything, in satisfaction of the claim of
the holders of deferred certificates.
OF the plans and purposes of the Com
mittee of Settlement we are ignorant.
Indeed, we doubt If any have been formu-
lated; certainly none has been published.
Therefore, we do not know whether the
State Of West Virginia will be approach
ed directly by the certificate-holders or
will seek settlement through the me-
dunn of our own State.
Virginia has always promised that she
would aid these creditors to secure a set
Element, but whether we shall be called
upon for assistance, of, if called upon,
will be able to grant It, are questions
which the future must decide.
our own State having been absolved
from any liability on account of the de-
ferred certificates, it is not TO be eX-
pected that the West Virginia debt ques-
ton will become one of as much moment
here as in West Virginia. The fact is that
1t has already become very lively ques-
ton in West Virginia, and has already
entered largely into State politics there,
but we should suppose 1t would be very
difficult to make a political alignment
until it is known what the creditors will

dissatisfaction be so certainly quieted; in
no other way could the lives Of our men

were present. and Immediately after the
building had been formally accepted "Old
Glory" was unfurled from a 10-foot pole,
which stands In one corner Of the school
yard.
Father Doyle made a very enthusiastic
address, and was followed by Bishop
Monaghan, who made a short speech, In
which he welcomed the children OF all
denominations to attend the school.
The building and furniture cost be-
tween $1,000 and $1,000, and are consider
ed the handsomest on the Peninsula south
OF Philadelphia 'The structure will be
heated by steam, and will have hot and
cold water in each room. The second floor
is fitted up as a residence for four sisters
from St Frances. Philadelphia, who will
have charge Of the school.
The music for the dedication Of The
school, which took place Sunday morn

THE COURTHOUSE QUESTION.
The courthouse question has been re-
vived since the old building at Eastville
was examined by an architect and found
to be unsafe 10 undergo repairs. The
architect decided that the desired inte-
rior improvements could not be made,
and that to remove the roof would cause
the walls to fall. This decision has some
what puzzled the county authorities, who
hardly know what course TO pursue. since
only 1900 was voted TO make the repairs.
The Board of Supervisors, who seem to
favor Eastville for the county seat are
endeavOring to devise SOME plan by which
they can use 5000 of the 'glebe fund"
and build a new courthouse at East
vile. The opposition 10 this scheme is
strong throughout the county, especially
In this vicinity, which voted TO move the
TO Cape Charles and erect a
new building a a cost of 5000 Ten lots
for the same were donated by the heirs
OF William L. Scott, who own considera-
bic property in and around this place
The question has become a very perpleX-
ing one. and IL is thought now that the
Legislature will be petiuOned again for
another vote. unless the supervisors de-
eide before the Legislature convenes TO
allow the ''glebe fund" TO be used for the
erection OF a new building at Eastville.
The board expects TO meet in a few days
TO determine the question.
