WANTED HIS VOTE FOR MARTIN.
Former Legislators Sensational Charge
Against Railroad COMPANY.

A special dispatch to The Evening Star
from Norfolk. Va, September says: There

other night, reviving the great fight for the
United States senatorship between Gen.
F'itzhugh Lee and Senator Thomas 8. Mar
tin
Capt. ]. w. Binford who was at the time
a member Of the Virginia house of dele
gates and who is candidate for the same
position now. was speaking. when some one
from the audience intimated that he had
voted for Martin as against Lee in that
memorable fight.
Capt. Binford emphatically denied that
he had done so, and his statement was
substantial ted by others present who knew.
THE Chesapeake and Ohio railway. of
which was an employee at the time" said
Binford. demanded that 1 vote for Martin
because they had need for his election but
l declined to do SO and voted for Lee"
This statement has created a big sensa-
ton all over Virginia. the interest being
very great. as Senator Martin is already a
candidate before the people for reelection
to his seat in the Senate. What effect. il
any. this latest development will have in
the coming campaign is. of course, not yet
known.

MARTINS OPPONENT.
Virginia Senator Will Not Have the
Field to himself

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
RICHMOND, Va, September 4-Senator
Martin is to have a single opponent for
United States senator. provided the plans
of the several candidates succeed in what
Is currently reported to be in contempla-
ton. The candidates are to have a confer
ence with their friends. and after lineup
Of strength and availability one Of them
Is to make the race. The brother OF one
of the new legislators Is authority for the
statement that the conference is to be held.
and the gentleman to whom the report or
the conference is attributed is an opponent
Of Senator Martin, while the brother Is for
Senator Martin. 1t is understood that Gov
ernor Montague. Representative Jones and
A G. Braxton of Staunton are to be parties
to the conference.
There Is just one element of uncertainty
attaching to the conference, however
Governor Tyler's friends are anxious that
he should have a chance before the people
with Senator Martin as his opponent, and 1t
is believed that Tyler's friends would OPP
pose any conference. Major Tyler aspired
to a place on the corporation commission,
being heavily Endorsed for that position,
but he failed of appointment. He was dis
appointed and his friends were mad-mad
all the way through. Should Governor
Montague be the gentleman named to op-
pose Senator Martin II Is reported that
Major Tyler would present his claims to
the people on the hastings He is a good
stumper, popular and would make a red
hot campaign. 1t is said that IL Mr.. Jones
or Mr.. Braxton are named Major Tyler
will keep out of the canvass for the nomi-
nation.
The conference Is to be held In this city
during the session of the general assembly
to convene here in January, according to
report. and whoever shows the greatest
strength is to receive the support of the
others who go into the caucus. That H..
at least. the nature of the report which is
being whispered around.
