THE ELECTION “BY BLOOD” IF NECESSARY. feorge H. Southall, a postal clerk between Lynchburg and Bristol, Tenn., was examined be- fore the Danville sub-committee this morning. He was in Lynchburg the night before election and made Lotes of two speeches delivered at a public meeting there by Mr, Whitehead, editor of the Lynchburg Adrauce, and Mr. Marie, a lawyer of Lynchburg. Witness read his notes. The speaker sald in substance that they (the democrats) in- tended to carry the election “by Dlood” If neces: | and that all arrangements hagbeen made to Sentinents of approval 10F the action of whites of Danville and denunciations of THE “PRAITOR MANONE’ were uttered. He described elreulars which were put out by the democrats. One of them grossly | misrepresented statements made by Gov. Cameron | in a pubite speech. ‘On Cross-examination by Senator Vance witness described a feature of the meeting which he said had not occurred to hin before. A colored brass band approached the meeting, Tola lowed by a crowd, and = some one in the meeting sald: “Here they are; come to break us up. Protect yourselves” ‘The whites formed in a Ine and agreat many pistols were drawn. The approaching crowd bore a banner Inscribed, “We are with you,” and the whites were reassured.” Wit- hess sid that a good many of the democrats dis- approved the sentiments uttered in the speeches of Whitehead and Marie, THE NEWS OP THE RIOT DAMAGING TO DEMOCRATS. Eustis Gibson, Congressman from West Virginia, Was examined. He was at Culpeper, Va., on elec- Uon day and several days before, assisting his brother, who was a candidate for the state legisla~ ture. ‘The colored people became very much ex- cited by mews Of the riot, and would thereafter hold no intercourse with the democratic leaders, ‘The news solidified the colored vote. ‘The news of the riot was very damaging to the democrats. Mr. Arinstead, of Blacksberg, was next exam- ined, but nothing of importance was developed. CONGRESSMAN GRO. D. WISE, tember of the House from Richmond, was next ex- amined. He went on to answer the testimony of Hon. John S. Wise as to election frauds. Mr. G. D. Wise testified that In Richmond the coalitionists made an arrangement whereby 400 negroes pald their capitation tax with the Same sliver dollar, that when one would enter the U. 8, District A torney’s office a dollar would be Nanded him. ‘He would pay it In, and the dollar would then be with. drawn and given to the next negro who appeared. ible A eS SURGEON GENERAL HaMILTOn’s INSPECTION Trip. Surgeon General Hamilton, of the marine hospital service, left to-day on the revenue steamer Jno. M.

He will inspect the quarantine station at Fisherman’s Island with a view of having it prop- erly equipped for the coming season. In MAKING THE AssigNMeNTS of army officers to duty at West Point, a few days ago, Second Lieut. c. P. oTwnsley, a graduate of 1882, was detafled as an assistant instructor.

An effort, it 1s stated.will be made to instruct the dele- filles for Logan, as Logan clubs have been formed in any of the Uistricts, and have been actively at Work. Itis also expected that the delegates will be instructed to labor to secure a plank iff the arty platform favoring suffrage in the District. ‘ret Caucuses were held ina number of the dis- {ricts last night, at which committees were ap- pointed to prepare tickets to be voled for Monday igh THE STRONGEST CANDIDATRS. Messrs. Adams, Ingersoll and Conger are credited with being the strongest candidates in the fleld. Mr. Clapp, however, has many earnest adherents who express confidence of his selection. Messrs, Clapp, Adams, Chase, Carson, Gregory and Greener are considered as Logan men.’ Messts. Conger and West are set down as administration men, because they hold office. “Mr. Corkhill ts regarded 2s a Gen. Sherman man, on account of his personal relations With Gen. Sherman.

In all the districts private meetings have deen held in the interest of harmony—to give a chance for the surplus speeches.
