The Times Dispatch Burenu,
5 t No 1417s g street,N. W.. r
Washington p. O., April IT,
81 r was very much surprised today to-
hear one OF the best informed men In
public lie III Virginia, say4at the Metro
polltan Hotel that Hon. W.. b. Mel l~alnc.f
or Petersburg. would ben candidate for
the United stntes Senate III 1906.
There Is not the slightest doubt bout
IT." said the gentleman alluded to. who
forbade In tho most positive terms the
use OF his Name Mr.. lcllwnine Will
almost certainly be candidate. OF
course, he may change his mind during
the coming twelve months. 5 AZ u KS
NOW, be 1t remembered that l do mot
assert Mr. McIlwalne will try to come
to the Senate. nor do / even say he would
| like to come. n know he told me somo
years ago he did not want any other
Office than tho one he held-n member OF
the Virginia Senate-and that he liked
that position because he liked association
with the men who composed the upper.
house Of the $Yirg inia General Assembly
I suppose there has not been time In
years when Mr.. McIlwaine could not.
have been elected to Congress from tho
Fourth Virginia District. There is not.
an ADLER lawyer in the State Senate, and
few stronger men at n tho Virginia bar
The fact that he has not a wide acquaint-
ance throughout tho State would BIO
against him. 4. 81
The mention OF Mr.. McIlwaine's nnmc
In connection with the Senate is the first
Time there has been hint OF friend OF
Senator Martins entering the field Mr.
Mc1lwnine nominated Mr.. Martin for tho
Senate when he was elected for the pros
ent term, and I think he also presented
the name Of Mr.. Martin In tho Demo-
cratic caucus. Only his own words will
cause those who know him best to be-
lieYe he will be a candidate against Mr.
Martin next year. 5sjsa
Ex-P POSTMASTER Burrliss OF Portsmouth,.
is OF the opinion that Mr.. Roosevelt Will
have a hard time getting tho Republic
can delegates from Virginia II Hanna
or Fairbanks Is Z a candidate He said
here to-day that there were many rocks
In the road for Roosevelts wagon sin.
Virgnln, and that n good Republican
candidate against him would have an
excellent show to- capture the delegates.
1t Is not believed the Republican State
Committee Is so friendly to Mr.. Roosevelt
rs once It was. It Is known that State
Chairman Agnew has not been ut the
White House In months and Mr.. Bow
den, who used to be a frequent caller.
has been for some time most conspcu-
cusly absent. i5
lys UNLUCKY REMARK.
A recent remark attributed to General
Frank D. Bald win. commander OF the
%Depa rtment of the Colorado. concerning
negro and Filipino troops, will be made
