by the Republicans Of the Ninth

MARION, VA. July 14.-(Special)-Th
Republican Congressional Convention for
the Ninth District convened here at u VI.
to-day. J. II. Wood was made temporary,
and afterwards permanent. chairman OF
the convention. The platform adopted is
lengthy 1t endorses the 81. Louis plat
form, and introduces many local features.
The principal discussion was over the
anti-civil service plank in the platform.
Judge McBroom offered n resolution,
leaving out this plank. James Browning
suggested that 10 the victor belonged
the spoiis, and recommended raising the
civll-service blanket and chasing the
Democrats out. This carried the conven-
ton. and resulted in the adoption Of the
platform. A special report was also Of
fered and adopted, endorsing General
Walkers course as chairman OF Elections
Committee No. in the Fifty-fifth Con-
gress.
Mr.. Charles Slack. editor of the Bristol
Courier, and formerly a Democrat. was
Invited TO seat on the platform and on
taking it read a speech from manuscript,
making a bitter attack on Judge W. #.
Rhea. the Democratic nominee. Gene
raj James A. Walker was the only candi-
date placed In nomination. and his nomi-
nation was unanimous. He was sent for
by the convention, and made an address,
which was literally applauded. The con-
vention was rather literally attended, and
the enthusiasm amongst the delegates
was no less than usual.

HOW 1T FEELS TO DE SHOT.
Lieutenant WnsseI1 Thought He Was
Lifted I'D and WhirIed Around.

PITTSBURG, July i4-First Lieutenant
w. II. Wassell. Twenty-second United
States Infantry, writing TO his parents
Mr.. and Mrs. Edwin H. Wassell, of this
city, says:
II was shot about o'clock on the after
noon of July list while storming El Caney
northeast Of Santiago. l was looking
through ld-glasses al the time and the
ball cut through the outer part OF the 1t
tie finger of the left hand joint next 10

about half way down my back, and about
inches from the spine l haven't
bone broken. l can now swallow, and.
thank God. am strong and, aside from
possible scar, l will be no worse or.
II will never forget the sensation OF
being shot. We had been under fire all
day-the hottest rain Of bullets that men
ever went up against. The Spaniards
were all intrenched. They shot us from
behind their earthworks, blockhouses,
trees, and church towers. All at once
il seemed as if | was lifted up from the
ground and whirled round and round, oh,
so terribly fast. l never lost conscious
ness during the sensation. l felt myself
going, but I seemed to realize that
IL let myself go 1t would be all over, so
took brace, and after what seemed an
age of this awful whirling | was drop

if no one would notice that l had been

down behind the cres, Of the hill. and
what a storm OF bullets the poor fellow
got as he raised me. l didn't know how
badly / was hurt. but from the blood
gushing from my mouth and the pain in
my back where the bullet had left me, l

Captain Lochinvar came to me and

whether I was done for or only scared tc
death One of the men dressed me as
well as he could with my first aid band
age. and I lay under a tree until about
6 o'clock About o'clock some OF the
Spaniards began a riot on the other side
OF me, and for a little while the bullets
from friend and foe whirled over me and
struck near me. About shutdown, the
firing having ceased, l was carried about
a mile to the brigade hospital Here L
was roughly dressed. The doctors were
worked to death and did their best.
"All night and all the next day our
hospital was fired upon by Spaniards.

THE FALL OF SANTIAGO.

Santiago has surrendered. At this
writing the details of the capitulation
are not at hand But that is immaterial.
The salient material. and gratifying fact
is that the city having fallen, our work
there is done. This means more than
another triumph for the cause in which
we are engaged. 1t means that many
Of our men have been saved from death
on the battlefield and many others from
long suffering from wounds. IT also
means that whatever may be our future
operations In Cuba, We have been placed
in better position TO cope with the yellow
fever. which has made its appearance
among our troops and is more dreaded
by the average soldier than are the bull
lets and shells Of the enemy
But this is not all. 1t may, and we
believe it does, mean peace. Sagasta IS
reported as having said Wednesday that
with the fan of Santiago the time for
peace negotiations would have arrived.
He is also reported TO have asked the
question, "What other remedy have we?'
What other remedy, indeed? None that
any rational man can suggest
Yet. If perchance Spain shall still prove
obdurate if she shall continue TO Illus
trate the fact that "whom the gods would
destroy they first make mad; if the gov
eminent shall still decline to sue for
peace, for fear of provoking revolution
and endangering the dynasty there is
reason, none the less, for regarding the
fall of Santiago as bringing the end Of
the war practically In sight. and that, too
without much further shedding Of Ameri-
can blood. The elimination Of Santiago
from the problem puts it in the power
Of our navy TO not only maintain more
effective blockade in Cuban waters, but
to bring TO bear on Spain the argument
Of guns trained on Cadiz or the Canarles.
in any light it is viewed the surrender
of Santiago calls for profound thankful
ness, while considered in its bearing upon
early peace 1t comes to the front as the
most important and hope-inspirlng event
OF the war.

There IS no doubt that the Rough Riders

FEDERAL INJUNCTIONs.

The Times is far from agreeing with
the Dispatch that the view of Judge
Akin, of Georgia, with respect to Fede-
raj injunctions is popular in the South
and particularly in Richmond. So be it.
Judge Akin is the president Of the Bar
Association of Georgia, and may be sup
posed TO understand the situation down
there. And he who reads the North
Carolina papers cannot but be impressed
with the fact that recent occurrences in
that state have aroused a deep feeling OF
indignation on account of Judge Simon
toms interference with the Supreme Court
of that State. Here in Richmond. opinion
Is very strong that injustice has been
done our city in the telephone case. If
any evidence on this subject be needed,
our City Council in the telephone case
and its action with reference TO mail
cars on our street railways. So fearful
is our city government lest opportunity
be given the Federal courts TO interfere
with our street railways, as it has done
with the telephone exchange, a Council
committee was actually sent TO Washing
ton 10 beg the Postmaster-General not
to put mail-cars on our street railwaysl
All these things are indicative of pub
lie sentiment in the South upon the sub
ject. We do not doubt therefore, that
the majority Of our people are in sym
pathy with the view expressed by Judge
Akin.
Now, what are we going 10 do about IL?
Nothing violent or revolutionary. We are
hopeful of the good effect OF public opin-
ION II is not too late to hope for de-
cislons of the Supreme Court of the United
States that may have a conservative in
fluence. And then, in time, we may Sc
cure legislation where 1t is needful to
regulate the injunction system. Again.
we are pleased to believe that the per-
sonnet Of the United States judiciary. in
the South at least has improved very
much of late years. The majority OF
these judges are Republicans. but more
Of them than ever before are men who
are in touch with our people. and who
are indsposed to use their power harshly.
We do not understand Judge Akin as
wishing to take away from Federal Judges
the power to issue injunctions. Being a
lawyer of enough prominence TO cntitle
him 10 the presidency OF the Bar Assocla-
ton of Georgia. he could hardly assume
such position as that. We suppose
what he wants Is that those judges shall
have more consideration for our State
courts. and shall use their injunctions
with the utmost prudence.

Newport News Jottings.

NEWPORT NEWS, July 14-(SpeciaL)-
The United States transport Resolute,
which left Charleston late Tuesday night,
arrived here this morning, and is now
anchored OFF the new pier.
The Resolute, while used as a trans
port, carries light guns, which were
designed to be used 10 prevent the enc
mys small gunboats from holding her
up and capturing her troops.
She was formerly the steamship York
town, of the Old Dominion Line, and was
purchased by the government for a snug
sum. She has made one trip to Santiago
carrying troops from Tampa. On her ar
rival there she was ordered 10 proceed
at once TO Charleston, where it was be.
lieved she would take on more soldiers
and return TO Cuba.
On arriving off Charleston Bar Tuesdty

structed to proceed at once TO Newport

roughly on the figures. The total appto-

that we are engaged in war there IS
dI.position TO accept them without mucn
cavil. and regard them as representing
necessary evil. But the fact Is that, OUT
side OF the war question, the exhiDil 10
the most reckless and extravaganza tha'
Congress has made since 1860.
Admitting for the sake OF argument
that every appropriation for war eh-
penses was necessary and can be )usli-
fed we are still confronted by an appal-
ling showing. OF the total appropriated
