say were at the Capitol today to Sc
cure speakers, for the banquet to be
held by R. Z. Lee Camp, Confederate

the promises of Representatives
Claude Kitchin of North Carolina,
Thomas Hefin, Of Alabama, and S. A.
Roddenbery, of Georgia, to be present
and address the Alexandria camp
upon this occasion. Representative
Kichin's acceptance, however, is con-
ditional. He is to be out Of town

arral&'e to be in Alexandria on the
evening of January 18th.
The committee also invited Senator
