The Registrars.

A meeting Of the newly appointed reg
istrars was held last night at eight
O'Clock in the Board Of Aldermen cham
Der and there were present Messrs. Oscar
Phillips. Peter Aitcheson, Edgar Snow
den. Geo. f. Price, c. NJ. Schwab, K.
NJ Latham, b. F. Penn, Charles b.
Marshal. G. w. Bontz, Champ Walker,
and Bernard j. Donnelly. Mr.. Penn
called the meeting to order and Mr.
Latham was elected chairman and Mr..
Snowden secretary. Mr.. Penn then
moved that committee be appointed,
one from each ward, to wait on Council
and ask for an increase in the pay OF the
registrars two dollars a day being DEEM
ed insufficient for the work and time re-
ouired. Mr.. Latham then appointed on
the committee Messrs. Phillips, Price,
Penn and Donnelly, who will hold a
meeting on Thursday night. The regis
trars of Richmond have been granted an
additional SO per day, and it is contend
ed by the board of this city that the
work here will be just as arduous and
even more disagreeable on account OF the
proximity of Washington, as many inhab-
itants of that city. who have been vot-
ing here for many years, will be dlsiTan-
chised under the new constitution. Inc
time required of the registrars is from II
O'Clock noon to o clock at night, and
that. with the nature of the work, was
thought would entitle those serving to
a better salary.
The meeting then adjourned, subject
to the call of the chairman. subsequently
the registrars organized by wards, as fol-
lows: First ward-Oscar Phillips, char
man. and Edgar Snowdcn, secretary
Second ward-George +. Price, chair
man. and c. NJ. Schwab, secretary
Third ward-C. b. Marshall, chairman,
and b. F. Penn, secretary; Fourth ward
William f. Fendall, chairman, and
Champe Walker, secretary. The regis
trars will meet by wards and decide
npon the time and place most convenient
TO them to hold the registration. Under
the law twenty days notice of the new
registration shall be given by placards
and newspaper advertisements, and the
work must be completed within a period
of fifteen days

Dining Cars.

The management Of the Southern
Railway has decided to equip the dining
cars owned and operated by the system
with electric lights and electric fans.
The work is to begin at once. Some of
the cars are now in the shops, and it is
expected that they will be turned out for
use at an early date, but the work will con-
tinue until all such cars are thus equipped.
The superior standard Of the Southern
Railway dining-car service will in this
way be still further advanced. 1t is the
intention of the management not to
permit the service to be excelled by the
the dining car service Of any other
sYstem.

Lomax Again in Alexandria.

AS was stated in the Gazette, Jon"
Lomax. colored, charged with Grimm |
assault upon Miss Leslie Costenbader,
since deceased. was tried Yesterday, found
guilty. and sentenced to death, the court
fixing September as the day Of execu-
ton. A large crowd was in attendance
from both Westmoreand and Richmond
counties.
ASA. m. Lomax arrived from this
CITY in charge of Deputy Sheriff j..
Sandy and guarded by the Washington
Guards. of Fredericksburg, iilty-two
strong. under command of Capt. NJ. b.
Rowe. The grand jury had been called
into special session early in the day and
returned bill Of two counts, one charg-
ing Lomax with rape and the other with
attempt to commit rape, either oiiense,
under the Virginia statutes, beng pun
ishable with death.
Immediately upon the indictment be-
ing returned followed the arrangement OF
the prisoner and his trial. The crowd was
admitted to the court room and the prls-
oner was brought to the bar surrounded
by a squad of oldiers. The only exciting
incident during the trial occurred after
the retirement of the jury 1t was
thought that they would not agree and
that there was possibility Of no verdict.
At this point Captain Rowe rushed Il
reserve squad into the closely packed
court room and brought them to present
arms within the bar. After a few
moments. however, it was announced
that the jury had agreed and they filed
into court with a verdict Of guilty, fixing
the prisoners punishment at death.
The Judge pronounced sentence OF death,
fixing as the date of execution the 9th
of September next at noon. III e
prisoner was Immediately placed under
guard and conveyed to the steamer Ran
dali, en- route for Alexandria. During
the trial one of the spectators created a
scene by pretending he wanted to get at
the prisoner. He was soon subdued.
Hon. r. j. Washington, Common
wealth's attorney, and c. Conway Baker
conducted the prosecution. w. T. Mayo
appeared for the accused The negro
Lomax seemed insensible to the position
in which he was placed. No further
trouble is feared.
The steamer Harry Randall reached
this city about four o'clock this morning
and Lomax was Immediately returned to
the Jail here. The soldiers found the
city almost Theoretically sealed as far a.
business was concerned and they were in
a ouandary as to where to get break
fast. Every place was closed and there
seemed a probability Of being compelled
to leave the city on empty stomachs.
The company proceeded to the Market
House where they saw Lieut.. Smith and
with his aid and that of Assistant Market
NJ ,ster Kell, Mr.. VIM. Hellmuth and
Mrs. Robey, who conducts a cookshop
in the market, a substantial meal was
provided. Ham, tongue, bologna, and
bread were procured and steaming ke:-
tie of coffee was brought into requisi-
ton. After a repast, which was much
enjoyed, the soldiers proceeded to
the depot of the MISREPRESENTATION

from Judge Beale, Lomax is confined in
a murderer's cell, and no one has been
allowed TO see him.
