WHAT MR. ERMENTRAUT SAYS. A STAR reporter met Mr. Ermentraut, of Pi Vania, to-day, the gentleman who, it ts understood, will have charge of the Randall headquarters at the Ebbitt House, and asked him when he proposed to establish himself there. “ET have not ven ad- vised,” he said, “that 1 ted to tah se 11s, Pstinpose, some ng that Cicre ought tobe several places where metmbers could mert and sit around if they choose, engaged the parlors Att, If Mr. Randal wants me there Lam Lys at his command, but I have not him yet and don't really know an thing al his plans, if he has ar As for any regular plan of canvass I don’t believe there ts any Now, there are very few members here yet.

COX'S EXPECTATIONS. Mr. Cox is now Installed in his elegant new resl- dence on Dupont Circle, though all of hts furniture has not yet arrived. His wife came last week. He turned out bright and early this morning. A Star reporter found him in his rooms at Willard’s with his friend Gen, Slocum. Mr. Cox sald be did not credit the report that ‘Tilden 1s helping Randa No intimation of any preference, he come froin Tilden, and he added, “friends of mine In New York believe that Gov. ‘Tilden does not In- tend to take any part In the fight. The only aus thoritative declaration from the ket? has been in my favor, Ex-Gov, Hendricks comes out for ine.” Mr. Cox expressed himselfas very hope- ful. He sald that the estinates of the sirenzth of his rivals ail contained the names of inembers_ wi are earnestly for him (Cox), and he mentioned C Casey Young, of Tennessee, as a warm supporter of its, who’ ts generally ‘put down for Carlisle. Witholt undertaking to yive any estinute of the Votes he counts upon, ME Cox says he expects to be well up in frout When the voring begins. He Will get votes, he says, from the Pactie slope, from ail through the south ind from the east aud west He expects all sections of the country to cont bute to ils strength, SECTIONALISM IN TIE CONTEST. The revival of sectional politics may exercise no Little infience upon the election of a Speaser of the next House, Some of the democratic members openly declire that their party must not overlook the evident determination of republicans to make another “bloody shirt” campaign. Very many of the democrats think that personal preferences shonid be sacrificed to party good, and this senti- ment is one of the grounds upon which Randall men buse thelr contidence of his. election. For a. Ume there was a disposition amonz democrats to fenore the attempt to revive sectional issues. “It will die onl” sakl some, “$f we pay ho. atte tion to 1.” But now when the cry of a“solld south” ts so generally made the republican shib- boleth, democrats begin to see that Uney must meet. the tssuc. e are democratic me gress who Instst that tt would be r Select a Southern man Speaker, In view of the manl- fest purpose of the republicans to tight the coming presidential battle on sectional lines, ‘Those who hold that the clection of a sonthern: man would be a mistake say Uhe sectional issue tsa fact, forced upon the country, and that it would be worse than blindness to refuse to see it. IUIs ap- Parent already that thelr ansuments “have lad effec Geographical consideration may also have some- thing to do with the disposition of the subordinate omices. ‘The Indications are that the clerkship and the position of doorkeeper will both go to southern me the leading candidates for the two place: respectively, are from the south. The position of sengeantat-arms Will goto a northern. man, per- haps to Mr, Leedom or Col. Thompson, of Olid. In Tact, there fs no southern candidate for this place, For postmaster Mr. Dalton, of Indiana, ts the most prominent, candida the north. Assuming: that the clerk and per are taken from the SOUT, the sergea’ md postmaster will probably be selected from northern democrats, AT MR. CARLISLE’S HEADQUARTERS. Mr. Carlisle went to his parlors at the Metro- politan to-day for the first. ume. Visitors there during the day. He said to a Sra reporter that he had nothing new to give. “WIL the sectional cry have any effect upon the speakership fight?” asked the reporter. “No, sit,” Mr. Carille emphatically replied.

DEMOCRATS TO PLACE NO OBSTRUCTION IN THE WAY— NO SPECIAL CONSIDERATION TO BE SHOWN MANIONE. A democratic Senator now in this eity give mnie information as to the reorganization of the Senate by the republicans this winter. This Senator was, prior to the adjournment of the last Congress, au- thorized to wait upon the republicans and inform them that the democrats would not offer any ob- stacle to the election of a president pro tempore, as they were desirous of avoiding an extra session. ie democratic Senator gave the information to Senator Allison, and in pursuance of this Mr. Ed- munds was elected to succeed Judge Davis, Since the democratic Senator referred to has been in Washington this time and during the past few days he has talked with Senator Edmunds about the reorganization, Mr. Edmunds has been advised that the democrats recognize the right of the re- publicans to control the Senate, by reason of their majority, and that they (the democrats) will not, in any manner, obstruct the republicans in reor. ganizing the body. Mr. Edmunds sald that the re- publicans will, in’ due time, after the meeting of Congress, proceed to reor é the Senate; that Senator Mahone will be accorded precisely the Same consideration as any republican Senator and land, formerly connected with the Associated Press in this city, and now night manager in the New York office, 13 spending a few days in the city. Senator Mahone Criticised. HIS ADDKESS AROUSES INDIGNATION IN VIRGINIA— GEN. WICKHAM AND EX-CONGRESSMAN WISE EX- PRESS THEIR OPINIONS. Dispatches from Richmond, Va., state that the ‘address published by Senator Mahone, purporting to give an account of how the recent election in this state was carried on by the democrats; meets ‘with the severest criticism on all sides here. Even some readjusters, one dispatch says, regard it as a bitter partisan account, in which the people of this state are grossly misrepresented. Preparations will at once be made by democrats to prove the falsity of the changes brought by Mahone. Gen. W. W. Wickham, recently elected to the state senate on the straightout ticket, has pub- shed a letter, in which commenting on Senator Mahone’s ree he ON short of lunacy would justify such an address.” Ex-Con- Wise also publishes a card denouncing Sir Mahone’s address as a “tissue of falsehood.” Representative John S. Barbour, of Virginia, was interviewed in New York last evening, and said: “Wo all unite In saying that eee ality isa monstrous outrage upon our peop! demo- cratic state committee will meet at Richmond on ‘Thursday next, when an authoritative answer will be made to the address.” Zs no more; that no special Concessions as to the sec- retaryship or any other office will be accorded him. —— ee The Columbia Baptist Association, THE OPENING SESSION AT THE 13TH STREET CHURCH.
