May Demand a New Protocol.

PARIS. Nov. 5-The Spanish peace
commissioners by their refusal yester-
day to accept the terms of the United
States proposal for settlement of the
Philippines question, and by postpon-
ing further discussion until after the
elections in the United States, believe
they will obtain better terms, because
they feel that the American demands
were intended in large measure for
political effect at home. The American
commissioners, on the other hand, hold
that the postponement will do the
Spaniards no good as the American
policy is already fixed, and ''out OF
politics." If events prove the Ameri
cans view correct, Spain may make q
new move. This, it is stated, will be
to demand that new protocol be sub
mitted by the United States direct to
the Madrid government for original &C.
ton and to be taken as basis for new
negotiations.

THEY WANT TO GET OUT.

The Virginia volunteers do not wish
to remain in service now that the war
is over. Governor Tyler has received
petition from about $50 members OF
the Fourth Virginia regiment, now at
Savannah, asking him to use his in
fluence with the War Department to
get their discharge.
Gov. Tyler has filed all of these applications
and he and Gen. Lee will both recommend to
the War Department that the appeals of the
men be complied with SO far as is consis-
tent with the plans of the department. 1t IS
believed that many of these men will be dis
charged, and an effort will be made to supply
their places with men from the Second and
Third if they are willing 10 remain in the
tervice, By this arrangement it is thought
the necessary quota can be secured TO Keep

of 80 men each AS stated yesterday there is
little prospect CT "a sufficient number of men
of the Second and Third regiments remain.

EARTHQUAKE PREDICTED.-The ne
groes of Norfolk are very much stirred
up over the predictions of Albert Book
er, venerable.lookiDg colored Veteri-
marian, who declares that in vision
he has foreseen the destruction of Nor.
folk by an earthquake on November IL
next. This catastrophe, he says, is
to follow the ruin of Baltimore, which
city is, he says, to be visited by an
earthquake on November 10, which
will do fearful damage. Booker's ap-
pearance and manner are very impress
sive, and his predictions have brighten
ed many of mis- race. These are hold
ing nightly prayer meetings, and some
are reported to be preparing to flee the
city next week. Booker, however,
says that flight is useless. He declares
his intention, if permitted, to hold
service 10 the public streets next Sun
day, and these, if held, will probably
be largely attended. Booker person
ally infomed the mayors of Norfolk and
Portsmouth yesterday of the impend
ing calamity.

how the seizure and retention of the

THE THIRD REGIMENT.

Though Colonel Baird, who is to p'y
off the Third regiment when it is mus
tered out to-day, did not arrive at
Richmond last night, as expected, yet
be will probably reach here on the early
morning train from Washington.
Major Price stated last night that
there was no doubt of the coming of a
paymaster, as the official order for the
muster out of the regiment to day had
been issued. All arrangements for pay.
ing off the regiment have been made.
Major Price will have the men pa
raded in the Capitol Square, a battalion
at time.
Colonel Male yesterday issued the
following order, which will probably be
the last the Third Regiment will receive
from him:

listed men will not be allowed to leave
the building until the company to

The democratic committee that re-
fused bet OF S., 900, not that the re-
publicans would nave majority in the
next U. S House of Representatives,
but there would be a republican Speaker
of that House, evidently had the result
of the last national election in its
minds eye, when though majority of
the voters called themselves democrats,
the malign influence of selfish gold in
duced enough of them to desert their
party, to turn the country over to the
control of the republicans; for what :?
Certainly not that the people might
have more work and more wages, but
as certainly, that there should be war,
more taxes, and attempts to impose
negro rule upon the poor white people
of the South, as. should such attempts
succeed, the few rich ones would move
away, and could afford to do so, rather
than submit to any such condition.

BECAUSE the election of the demo

why every Southern democrat. or any
other Southern white man who has the
welfare of his State at heart, shouldn't
go to the polls next Tuesday and cast
MS ballot for the democratic and white

that ticket shall receive, the less dis.
posed will Mr.. Mckinley and his

dominancy in those Southern counties,

The negroes vote as unite; those
