ATLANTA, GA, March Ga resolution
adopting the fifteenth amendment was ia
bled in the Senate-20 to lion the ground
that no official notice of the adoption by
Congress had been received, and the
fifteenth amendment was finally tabled-l9
to IL.
Both Houses resolved to adjourn sine die
on the 18th insant.
In the House resolution was offered
asking the Governor to send to the House
any notification he might have received of
the adoption by Congress of the fifteenth
amendment, and also any recommends
tions he might have to make in the matter.
1t was suggested that the Governor, if he
had this notification, might be holding it
back to create the impression that Georgia
is holding out against Congress. The reso-
luton was defeated-S4 to 40.
The general appropriation bill was passed.
Among other appropriations is $4,000 to
furnish artificial limbs to MANNED soldiers,
and one of $3S0,000 to pay the interest on
the State debt for the present year.

TuE sUfFaAGE AMENDMENT IN INDIANA
, PnLr AGAINST RAr1frcATIoE.-lnd Indian
anoEs, March 3.--Two years ago law was
uassed to prevent legislative boiling, with
ssc pcnalty of fine and ihprssohmsnts
Tsis lew, however, will not prevent Demo-
.r,,io members of the Legislature from
Ling to defeat the ratification of the suf-
r s.ore amendment. The Democratic caucus
LA last night, all the Democratic mem-
hcrs of the Legislature concurring, resolved
- either resign or get out Of the way to
Sresk quorum in both branches Of the
Tnr;slaturc if necessary to defeat the rati-
s,S,ion Of the amendment By this Legisla-
ture. :,
nary appropriation bills have been pushed
nrward to-day, and will be passed to-mor-
-ow morning, so that no embarrassment
ebslI arise from the bolt, which will take
r1,ce tomorrow afternoon, as the majority
n both branches have made the question
tbe special order for O'Clock Tomorrow.
There is no difference Of sentiment among
Tho Democrats IS 10 the defeat Of the ratifi-
cation Of the amendment. From every
5uartcr comes the advice and the request
f,r the Democratic members to resign or
leave if the majority should press a vote.
The Democratic members feel that the
amendment is fraud upon the people, and
that the people will sustain them in de-
feating action upon it until they have had q
chance 10 pass upon it through the ballot

act establishing the Treasury Department;
prohibiting further treaties with the In
dams; and improving and enlsrgins the
harbor Of Mobile.
The Chair laid before the Senate the foi-
lowing communication from the President
"7o the Senate of the United States:
Since the nomination and confirmation
Of Alexander T. Stewart to the office Of
Secretary of the Treasury, I find that by
the eighth section Of the act Of Congress,
approved September 2, 1889, it is provided
as follows: The section is here quoted.)
In view of these provisions, and the fact
that Mr.. Stewart has been unanimously
confirmed by the Senate, would ask that
he be exempted, by joint resolution of the
two Houses of Congress, from the opera
tions of the same. U. 8. GRANT"
Mr.. Sherman introduced bill repeating
said eighth section, but providing that the
secretary of the Treasury shall act in no
case in which he is personally interested,
and asked the present consideration Of the
bill.
Mr.. Sumner objected. He thought the
matter ought to receive the most careful
and profound consideration. The bill went
over.
A resolution to consider Indian treaties
in open session was adopted.
The resolution establishing joint COM
mittee to consider applications for the re-
moyal Of political disabilities was con-
sidered.
Mr.. Sawyer, of South Carolina, explained
that the object was to secure uniformity of
action in the two Houses.
Messrs. Fessenden, Pomeroy, and others
opposed the resolution.
Mr.. Trumbull thought there ought to be
special committee for the purpose, as the
business overburdened the Judiciary Com
mittee.
MIR. Stewart said there were 1000 appli-
cations on file, and bushels of papers to
back them.
Mr.. Ferry advocated general removal
of disabilities, which he thought could be
done with safety and benefit to the repub-
lie. He thought such bill would receive
the sanction of both Houses if those who
had been members of Congress or had held
q commission in the army or navy were
excluded.
The resolution was finally committed to
the Committee on Revision Of Rules.
Adjourned.
UouSe.-The House was not in session to-
day.

WAR BETWEEN TIE ERIE AND NORTHERN
CENTRAL RAILROADS.. - ElmirG, ~. T.,
March 5.-War has broken out between the
Erie and Northern Central railroads. The
Northern Central uses the Erie track
through this city. Last night orders were
issued forbiddiug the track to be used, thus
cutting of the Northern Central from its
connections north. The switches were
spiked, and all passage of the Northern
Central trains stopped from going in either
direction. No reasons have been given for
this action.
An injunction was granted this afternoon
TO prevent the Erie from obstructiug the
Northern Central trains but as yet no
change has occurred. A train with five
hundred passengers from Washington ar
rived tonight on the Northern Central,
and were obliged to take the Erie and repay
their fare.

A RICHMOND SUIT or lS6l.-1n the Su
preme Court Circuit, before Justice Bar
nard, was tried the suit of Graner against
Crenshaw. This was an action for dam
ages for use and occupation of premises
and conversion of personal property
arising under these circumstances The
defendants were the owners of the
Richmond flour mills, and the plaintiff the
owner of the Richmond barrel factory.
In 1861, at the outbreak of the rebellion,
the plaintiff was loyal northerner, and
had his property in the hands Of on agent
who, in September of that year, reported to
the agent of the Confederate Government the
status Of the owner and the value Of the
property. This agent took possession of
the premises, and continued the agent of
the owner in possession as his agent, direct
ing him to deliver the barrels, as manufac-
tured, to the defendants, who had contract
with the Rebel Government to supply the
army with -four. In accordance Herewith,
the factory was continued until 1868. The
defendant was on his way home from Eu-
rope, and when he landed in New \ ork
was served with an order of arrest and
summons and complaint in the action. The
plaintiff, on motion Of the defendants
counsel, was compelled to elect which of the
two causes of action should be tried, the
court holding that there was an improper
ioinder of causes. The plaintiff elected
to sue for the conversion, and went
to trial. By his own witnesses it ap-
peared that the agent of the owner
was at all times il possession, and
paid the workmen that the defendants
paid for the barrels manufactured and de-
livered to them from week to week, except
for small balance which was turned over
to the Confederate Government. After the
war had closed, the plaintiff wrote to the
defendants asking q settlement and pay.
ment. When the plaintiff rested, defend
ant moved for non-suit on the ground that
no evidence was given that the defendants
ever took possession Of the property, and if
they had, it was under color Of authority
of the actual power de facto, apd until the
de,rand was made, such possession was law
ful. The court dismissed the comp laint.

harvest, and by that saving avoiding en-

HoKRlRLE MURDER N WASHENGToN-A
NEGRO WOMAN HILLS A WHITE MAN.
Yesterday a colorcd woman named Minnie
Gaines, about twenty-five years OF age,
entered the Office Of the sixth precinct sta
ton and surrendered herself, stating that
she had committed murder. The quiet
manner in which she entered, and the APP
parent calmness with which she made the
declaration, did rot excite the officers at
tention but, continuing the conversation,
he asked, "Whom did you kill ?" and
she replied, 81 killed q white man named
James 4. lngle."
Ingle, who was about twenty-six years Of
age, and crippled by wounds received du-
ring the late war, was employed as a watch
man in the Interior Department, and board
ed at the house of Mrs. Van Buskell, on
Capitol Hill. Minnie Gaines was employed
rs a servant in the same house, and an i'm
proper intimacy had existed between them
fer some time past. Finding that she was
about TO become a mother, she had asked
lDgle if he would support the child. The
difficulty which existed between them on
this account was the cause of hard words,
and yesterday eliminated in her killing
him with a hammer (taking advantage Of
his being asleep, and literally crushing
his skull by the blows che inflicted.
At the time Of the murder, about half
past 10 o'clock, Ingle was reclining on q
lounge in his room, and the first blow, it is
supposed, brought him TO his feet, as he was
found lying on the floor, the blood stream
ing from the horrible wounds. The occu-
pants of the house we're Mortified at the
announcement Of what had happened, and
physicians were at once sent for. Drs.
Ford and Drexter arrived, but were unable
TO help the dying man, and about half-past
] o'clock he breathed his last.
The murderess was formerly slave,
and lived ar Fredericksburg. She states
that she threw the hammer into the street
on her way to the guard-house. That the
deed was deliberately done her confession
plainly shows and when informed that In
gle was dead, she betrayed no signs of re-
gret for what she had done. The deceased
was regarded as a gentleman Of the most
corr rect habits, and was spoken Of by those
who knew him as man of unblemished
reputation. National IntelHgencer, 9Th.
