A PRIVATE dispatch received in
this city to-day conveys the intelli-
gence that Colonel Jilson p. johnson,
proprietor of the Maxwell House in
Nashville, died at 5 o'clock this morn
ing. Mr.. johnson was a native of
Kentucky and was connected with
some of the most wealthy ard promi-
nent families of that State. lie re-
moved to Arkansas many years ago
aud before the war was wealthy
planter Some twenty years ago he
was member Of the Arkansas legis-
lature and took an active part
in State politics. Some years ago
when the Gait House at Louisville
was built and reopened in grand style,
he was selected by the stockholders to
take charge of it. 1t was, without
doubt, the finest hotel south of the
Ohio river, and was managed by him
in splendid style; yet as a financial
venture, it was not a success. The
pressure of contraction and hard times
was too much for it, and the com,
pany went into liquidation. After
this Colonel johnson came to
Nashville and became proprietor of
the Maxwell House, which he con-
Quoted successfully until his death.

had been made through the press
He was in the full vigor of middle life

many who knew him will be saddened
at his unexpected death.

No Further Testimony TO-Day--The
Committee AdjOurns.

WASHINGTON, June l0.-The com
mittee on privileges and elections Of
the senate continued the Spofford
Kellogg case to-day. Senator Kellogg
and Judge Spoford were present. No
witnesses were examined, none being
at hand, but each side announced that
some men were expected. Mr.. Sauls-
bury suggested that all the testimony
possible be got in before the adjourn
ment Of congress, which was expected
about the close of this week or the
beginning of next, as he doubted
whether majority of the committee
could be held here after adjournment.
Afidavits heretofore offered in evi-
dence were admitted to record. An
effort to deprive Savignes of his wit
ness fees failed on the ground that he
was obliged to answer the subpoena.
The meeting then adjourned.
