HOW THE CLUBS STAND.
ADMIRAL DEWEY MIGHT COME.
Plenty of Time in Which to Invite
Him to Richmond.


WASHINGTON. D. c., October r.
lSpecial)-If the Young Mems Business
Association, the Chamber OF Commerce
and the w. r. Trigg Ship Building Com
pany get promptly 10 work, and appoint
committee OF invitation, there is still
ample time to breach to Admiral Dewey
the matter Of his coming to Richmond On
+ the occasion of the launching Of the Shu-
brick. II is understood that as young
( lieutenant he saw service in Hampton
Roads with Admiral Farragut. in the
! early sixties, and no doubt he would be
glad 10 revisit the scenes Of former DAYS
under changed conditions. 1t was init
mated by him before he left Washington
I that he would not be able TO go South be-
fore November and the Atlanta people
very accommodatingly deferred the
sword presentation to Lieutenant Brum-
by, his flag officer. until such time as
would be most suitable to the Admiral.
The Richmond people could also time the
launching OF the Shubrick. SO that IT
would occur conveniently either before or
after the Atlanta function.
