EaVis-HOtI0n to Quash the indlei-
mens-The Argument In The Case

RIeHMeND, Va, December 4.-In
the u. S. Circuit Court. to-day, Chief
Justice Chase presiding, on motion to
quash the proceedings against JEFF.
Davis, r. II. Dana for the Govern
ment, opened this afternoon. He
proceeded TO show that the Fourteenth
Amendment pleaded Id favor Of pun
ishment by the defeadant was not
a penal statute. .-but merely q change
in the political system TO secare trust
wershiness in,oofice, land, preserve
purity in the administration of the
Government. 1t was q measure OF
precaution to secure the country
against filing the Offices with persons
who once filed them and broke their
paths. 1t had been intended 10 IN
fict punishment; it would have been
the utmost folly Of legislatios, seein G
that it would If viewed as the defend
ants counsel viewed il, tighten the
punishment5 of leaders who had held
office aud broken Oaths. 1t wonld
leave the people who never held ofiee
exposed to penalties OF death and lm
prisonmentas denounced In the Con
stitution before the adoption of the
Amendment. 1t was an EXPRESSION
only Of public viii as TO the fitness Of
persons who were engaged In the
rebellion after breaking their oath ia
hold office again. 1t was NOT iatended
to act as an amnesty, nor was there
single word uttered in thsConfress
that framed, nor by the Northern
Legislatures that adop;eriit it. to warrant
such Constitution safer. | was in
tended as test by which some men
may be reached and cuafded against
who had proved untaithful tl their
pledges>to the Government. It could
be pleaded in favor of conviction for
treason, seeing that it applied to those
only who had, after taking the oath
of Office, ENGAGED in insurreotion and
rebellion. 1t is levying war against
the government of this country that
the defendant stands charged. 1t
would be strange if jeff Davis could,
as he might under this plea. come to
the bar and acknowledging that he
was guilty of treason, deny his liabil-
ity TO be punished because of the
fourteenth amendment. 80

the President i1v ce AHW
On motion of the Committee on Ad-

commerce was admitted, and its dele

The President addressed the Board.
He said a COED deal Of the most i'm
portant business was yet to be con-
sidered, and he trusted no member
would talk of dispersion 50 long as
there we're any matters which remain-
ed undecided, and that those who felt
compelled to leave should make an
effort to stay, showing no haste to
evade their responsibilities, whereby
their deliberations would have their
due weight with the people and with
Congress.
He then unmoved his former sug-
gestions, as to the form OF providing
that every gentleman when rising, IN,
stead of saying MIR. President" "
should announce his own name and
place distinctly: also, as to the vast
importance of tho motion brought up
yesterday from the Board of Trade of
St. Louis, and other matters. He
asked the concurrence of the Board
IN his former suggestion. This was.
that each member OF that Board
should have priority Of speech, and
then he would call on the individual
members of each delegation in alpha
beticaI order, SO that each delegation
should have an opportunity OF speak

Bridge Swept Away by Ice-RallrOad
Affairs Indian Chief Kllled-In-
dian Affairs.

CHICAGO, Dec. "A special from
Omaha announces that the temporary
railroad bridge across the Missouri
River at that place, which was only
completed day before yesterday, was
swept away by floating ice last eve
ming. Four hundred loaded freight
cars had been taken across the bridge
before its destruction. This is the
second temporary bridge that has
been destroyed. The railroad au-
thorities will at once rebuild the
bridge, which Is greatly needed for
the speedy transmission of freight
from the Northwestern Railroad 60
tho Union Pacific Railroad
A special dispatch from Dun ap,
iowa, situated on the North Western
Railroad, says on the morning of No
vember 9th, Yellow Smoke, chief of
the Omaha Indians, visited that place.
During the evening he was drugged
with liquor by party Of roughs, with
the intention Of robbing him during
the night Du ing the fight Yellow
Snake was struck on the head by one
of the paTty smashing his skullin. He
sueceeded in getting to where there
were several hundred Indians encamp-
ed about our miles east of town. He
expired on Wednesday morning
Nothing was done in the matter until
last nigh, when several were arrest
ed. One of the principal parties is
still at large. The chief was always
noted for being very friendly and
strictly honorable His band com
prises 800 Warriors, who, according
= - roror+s 80 -, tbor;,,o :, ct -, 4
are really excited. They burned him
yesterday.
A lively snow storm, accompanied
by a furious gale OF wind, commenced
at an early hour this morning, and
has continued during the day. Up TO
this hour from six to eight inches of
snow has fallen, but owing to its
heavy, wet character it has drifted
very little, although the wind is very
Strong. The street cars have sus-
pended operations, but the trains on
the various railroads centering at this
city, SO far as heard from, have sut-
fered little or no interruption. So far
as heard from the trains will leave
this city this evening on time.
The gale on the lake has been fu-
fious, and it is feared that several
propellers and other vessels, known
10 be out. may have suffered, as some
due here this forenoon have not ar
rived.
Large quantities of lumber ap.
peared about the breakwater ia front
Of Michigan Avenue this morning,
indicating that some vessel had been
wrecked.
Storms all through the Northwest.
The High School build ng at Fon-
du lac, Wisconsin. was burned last
evening. 1t is supposed to be the
work Of an incendiary.

New York. Dec. 4.-The First
Annual Convention Of the New Jer-
sey State Woman's Suffrage Assoeia-
ton was held at Nineland, on Thurs
day
New YoRK, December 4. The
Erie matter, before Judge Suther-
land. was te-day allowed to stand
over, Judge Cardoza not yet having
decided the case before him.
The suit IN which Judge Barnard
to-day issued an injunction against
the New York Central Railroad
charges the Company with an over
issue of stock to the amount of
50 451 500, of which S253. 100 were
issued on the surrender of convertible
bonds, and the balance without any
authority.
The complaint is made by one e..
Jencks, who says the amount of capt.
tai as prescribed In the consolidated
agreement was $23, ,085, 900. The
company is restrained from paying
any dividends upon stock In excess of
the latter sum, or permitting any
votes to be cast on said stock at the
ensuing election.
The prisoners, Campbell, Berrigan
and Hines, committed on charge of
implication in the Larkin homocide,
were this afternoon admitted to bail
by Judge Sutherland.
TIE Congressional Subcommittee
on whisky frauds is still sitting with
closed doors. and, it is said, expect 10
