ny, a prominent Conservative, for party
funds. The witness did not know whe-
Their the money reached the party funds.
CHARGE OF FALSEHOOD.
Subsequently Mr. Hooley explained that
he paid the Marquis of Abergavenny
5000 first, and then paid him a second
$500. because he was told that he had
promised $1,000. But" the witness in
terjected that was falsehood"
Continuing, Mr.. Hooley testified that he
had paid e1,0OO to Frank Harris, editor
of the Saturday Review, ito square a
man named Blake, who threatened to
publish something antagonistic to the

SECOND DISTRICT.
young,s Election Certain-Warning
RepubIican Factions.

NORFOLK. VA, November l.-tspe-
cial)-The Second District, now repre-
scented by Republican, and always con-
sidered debatable ground, owing 10 the
large coiored population, is pretty certain
10 be represented next year by Hon. VIII
liam A. Young. the Democrat who was
unseated In favor OF DR.. Richard A..
Wise In this result OF the election the
Republicans themselves will be important
factors. Their internecine strife has re-
moved the election OF a Democrat from
the realm of speculation 10 an almost
settled certainty. With Its strength d.
yIded between two candidates, Holland
&. Wise-one recognized by members OF
the National Committee and the other by
the Republican National Congressional
committee-the Republican party cannot
hope TO defeat Mr. Young when ne re-
ceives the united support of his party.
The Republican leaders are as far apart
as ever. The supporters OF Wise Will ac-
cept nothing but Hollands withdrawal,
Holland will not withdraw. and so the
deadlock remains unbroken. and probably
will up 10 election-day leaving as the
only question open to debate the size OF
the Democratic majority.
