special to Tho Washington Herald.

Special % Tho Washington Herald.
Richmond. Va. May 1.-THE belief now
Is that the four delegates-at-large 20 the
Democratic national convention at Den
yer VIII be Gov Swanson, Senator Martin
Senator Daniel. and ex-Goy. J. Hoge Ty-
Ter, Of Radford
II appears that r. Tate Irvine. OF Big
Stone Gap. has decided not TO stand for
the honor. because he favors the can
didacy Of Maj. Tyler. There is 10 be a
hot fight for the position OF delegates
from the districts. The first and second
districts are said 10 have several as
pirants each FOR the honor. The belief
Is that not more than two or three Of the
districts VIII be ready 10 make report
when the convention is called to order.
The districts are called 10 meet at 10
o'clock in the morning. They are ex-
pected 10 reach the convention hall by
noon on the day on which the convention
is 10 convene. The latest announcement
is that Thomas +. Ryan. Of New York.
and Nelson County, is 70 attend the con-
vention and make a strong fight against
instructing for William Jennings Bryan.
He has been elected a delegate from
Nelson County. in which county he re-
tains a legal residence. He is said TO be
great friend Of Senators Daniel and
Martin. According to a Bryan man, his
presence on the floor Of the convention
VIII serve 10 increase the following Of

LOCAL FINANCIAL GOSSIP.

Business has come practically TO a
standstnl on the Washington Stock Ex-
change. due largely to the uncertain con-
dltions which surround the New York
speculative market For a long time the
traction stocks and bonds in Washington
have been on a rise. The strength in the
fractions helped the other securities along
and prices have gone TO a pretty high
level
Now there is a marked slump IN New
York. and both buyers and sellers are shy
Of the market until It is seen which way
financial affairs win turn. Buyers espe-
clally are not anxious 20 load up with To-
cal stocks at present prices, when It is
possible a period of depression may set in
to last the greater part OF the summer
months. AS a result, brokers and their
clients have again assumed the waiting
attitude. with practically nothing doing.
The transactions yesterday were seven
teen shares OF stock-two OF Mergenthaler
and fifteen of Washington Railway and
Electric preferred.
The members voted yesterday to close
the exchange on Friday and Saturday Of
this week, in connection with the observ-
ance of Memorial Day.

Growers Of Virginia and North Carolina.
at special meeting held here to-day.
agreed TO pool the crop Of 1903. They will
put at work an active corps OF organizers
to increase the membership and further
the aims Of the association. which are to
fight the tobacco trusts and 20 fix their
own prices.
The meeting to-day was enthusiastic.
and the arraignment by speakers Of the
American Tobacco Company, generally
called the tobacco trust. as being respon-
sible for the condition OF the farmer and
the prices for tobacco, was literally ap-
plauded. Resolutions submitted by the
board Of directors that all Of the crop Of
1905 be held for an average price OF 10
cents per pound and the 1909 crop be
abandoned were voted down, this measure
being considered too drastic at this time.
