S WASHINGTON, D. c., May 22.-Since
the return to washington on Monday
last of Senator Mcmillan, one OF the
Senate conferees of the river and har-
Dor bill, there has been a daily confer
ence on this important measure, in which
Richmond is so vitaily interested So
far. no agreement has been reached, but
it is thought one will be arrived at after
two or three more meetings of the con-
ferees.
IN speaking Of the bill to-day. Senator
Martin declared himself much more
hopeful for the safety of the Richmond
project than he had been before.
The junior Senator from Virginia
would say very little on the subject be-
yond the fact that he was greatly en-
couraged at the outlook of obtaining the
whole 100000 asked for the improvement
of the James to the head of navigation,
but from his manner it could be easily
Judged that he was in a very satisfied
state of mind at Virginia's prospects.
