II aa Hornet hi ng; to Nay Abonl IbeNenn- lorablp. niaa Cltnfroi PralNvd. Richmond, Va., October 15. Gen. Fitz, Lee was asked today if lie cared to say anything about the rcort that he and his friends have perfected an organi zation to advance his candidacy for the United States Senate, in opposition to Mr. Martin. The consul-general had nothing to "ay on that subject. He pleaded ignorance of the existence of such an organization in his interests. He, however, expressed surprise at find ing upon his return to Virginia so much encouragement. "The position which I hold," said General Lee, "by request fronts Republican administration pre vents my taking an active part in State politics for the present, and. Indeed, un til I get through with the consul general ship of Cuba, I have been requested to speak in the present campaign, but this I could not agree to," s "Well, then," ventured the interviewer; you as much intimated that when you have laid aside the duties of that office you will be a candidate for (he seat now held by Senator Martlnf" The General smiled and shrugged his shoulders, as be replied; "It looks that way," General Lee said the rescue from a Cuban prison of Miss Clsncros was one requiring great courage both on the part of the lady and her rescuers. "I think," said General Lee, "His Clineros, in doing what she did, showed supreme courage. But," he continued, "eyery oae of these Cuban women with whom I have met I have found to be aa brave as lions." , The Chief of Detective at Chicago and bis force have captured four men, who, (bey ssy, are among the most successful and daring burglars in tho United Slates.

Cincinnati, Oct. 15. As a perfor mance at Robinson's Opera House was in progress about 8.30 o'clock tonight the plaster began to fall from the centre of the domed ceiling, 50 feet above the heads of the people in the orchestra. This continued three minutes, causing a panic and a rush from the house. The theatre and galleries had been partly emptied when the dome, with its supporting timbers and trusses, came tumbling down. The dome extended across the opera house und was about thirty feet wide. When it fell the ends struck both sides of the gallery, crushing it and scattering timbers in every direc tion, finally landing in the centre of the orchestra. Three persons were killed and thirty- three more or less severely injured. Many suffered slight injuries, but were able to go to their homes. POLITICAL FAVORS. AM of Democrats liy Eepnlilicaa Russell's Hand in Wilmington's Mu nicipal Affairs. Mayor Wright Must go. Cotton Business. A Fine lintel. Wilming tonian Honored. Wilmington, Oct. 16tli. It would seem as if this city must be forever in the throes of some political convulsion, and yet with the very varied experiences of the Democrats, they seem to profit nothing, but keep on making mistakes Anything which savors of trafficking with the enemy is a mistake, and the Democracy is in its present position, out side of olllce, because it has done this thing. And now it looks like more of the same thing, for leading Republicans, Jwould be incumbents of the Postollice and Cus tom House, are asking leading and in fluential Democrats lo sign their peti tions, favoring their appointment lo these positions. The aspirants for these offices are Geo1 Z. French und W. II. Chadbouine, re spectively. It is no question as to the ihility of these gentlemen, but there is a stir among Democrats over this petition business. One reason these Republicans arc seek ing Democratic endorsement is because of the local split here, the Russell faction being (lend set against the Wright faction who are now in control of Municipal af fairs. And for this reason, because Governor Russell is antagonistic to Mayor Wright, t is said that Mayor Wright expects to lose his suit, and this municipality will go back to the control of the Uarriss crowd. In years past, Russell to an extent per mitted local matters very often to drift lo favorites, and those who know say he cares little about holding Wilmington, if letting its control go means political an nihilation to Borne personal enemy. In this instance it means Mayor Wright. Our cotton business keeps up a trade here that would be immense, if the price was higher. It takes a good many thousand bales of cotton lo make figures that a rev years ago a very much less number would have amounted to. The friends of Sol Weill arc greatly pleased over his advancement in New York, the latest being his nomination as Assembly man on the Tammany ticket. It will not be long before he becomes a Sachem in Tammany's councils. That most delicious bin), the coot, Is again in the market, and epicures are enjoying themselves. The present weather, with the temper ature during the day In the eighties, is not foot ball weather, but team work is going on and Wilmington will be in the fight with any teum of the State, The Orton Hotel keeps up a fine busi ness and its management deserve the trade, for the hotel is giving a cuisine and genoral hotel scrvtue that every traveler greatly enjoys. Our city is truly "by the sea" these days, for tho dry season has brought suit water to our very dock. There are intimations in some quarters that John C. Dancy may again be made collector oi tnis port. THE MARKETS. Yesterday's market quotations furnish ed by W. A. Fortcrfleld & Co. Commission Broker. Nkw York, October 15. STOCKS. Open. High.

Urievnnces Set Forth They Demand the They Think Their titles Them tu. in an Address. Ofllccs that Votes En Result of Fusion. Special to Journal. Rai.f.ioh, October 10. A call was issued tonight signed by forty negroes for a convention to beheld in this city on November 3rd. The object of the convention is to set forth their race grievenees in regard to the division of offices between them and their Republican and Populist allies. The address issued by which the con vention is called stales that the negroes of North Carolina cast one hundred and twenty thousand votes and get for Heir share only one State clerkship with a salary of $1,200 and ten postmasters, making a total of but if 4,500. In contrast to this, the address stales. the while Republicans and flic Populists are getting one million six hundred and one thousand dollars in offices. Tho negroes issuing the call arc all well known among that race. The ad dress concludes with the following ex pression towards the while members of their parly. "Those fellows are simply making fools of us and fattening at our expense." l.nleHl Sewn Hem.
