IN THE SENATE.
BIair's Education Bill Discussed
without Action.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 16.-In the senate
to-day Mr. Morrill, reported favOrably the
bill of the house providing that the treas
urer of the United States may, with the
consent of the secretary, authorize the as
sistant treasurer to act in the place of the
treasurer or likewise. in the absence of both
the other officers, designate clerk to be
acting assistant treasurer. After consider
able discussion, the bill was referred back
to the finance committee. The education
bill came up. and Mr.. jackson took the
floor and addressed the senate in favor of
the bill A corrupt suffrage he would re-
gard as the most fatal of all the misfor-
tunes that could afflict the republic. and as
sure as night followed day we would reach
such a suffrage if we did not secure intelli-
gence in our voters. Mr.. Maxey followed,
saying he yielded to no man in his regard
for education, but he never would consent
to transfer to the general government the
duty of state, especially as there was no
warrant in the constitution for this depart
ure in government policy. Mr.. Pugh said
he had voted for this bill in obedience to
the instruction of his legislature. Mr.. Blair
declared the bill constitutional, and added
that it was useless for anybody to say that
the people of the South did not want this
measure passed. He had received letters
from teachers in Texas favoring the bill.
Mr.. Coke said the teachers did not repre-
sent the people of Texas. Mr.. Hawley
said the state board of education of Con-
necticut believed this bill to be unwise.
Here the debate closed for the day. The
credentials of reelection of Senator Cor
man were presented by Mr.. Wilson of
Maryland. The senate then adjourned.

Car Drivers strike Again.

NEW YORK. Feb. 16.-The Fourth ave-
nue. drivers are out on a strike again, alIeg-
ing that the company is not living up to the
agreement made few days ago. to paw So
a day for twelve hours work, with half an
hour off for dinner. Half of the men they
say only receive from S1.20 to S1.SO each.
The striking car drivers held a meeting this
morning when the assistant superintendent
of the Fourth avenue waited upon them.
and on behalf of the company asked the
executive committee OF the drivers TO call
upon Supt. Skitt, at the depot, and he would
sign an agreement by which the trouble
would be settled. The men replied that the
superintendent would have to come over to
their hall and sign set of agreements in
the presence Of the men. because they had
been deceived by the company before.
These agreements provide that twelve
hours shall constitute a days work; that
men who work full time shall receive So a
day, and that not more than twenty trips
shall be made each day. The men so far
have maintained good order. A peaceable
settlement is expected. The company ac-
ceded to all the demands OF the men this
evening. and traffic on that line was re-
sumed at $50 tonight.

PETERSBURG. Va, Feb. 1S.-InteIli-
gence has been received here OF a terrible
murder committed in Norfolk county, this
state. the details of which are revolving in
the extreme. On what is known as the
Monkey house, on the Princess Anne road,
are number Of log cabins, occupied prin-
eipally by eolored people. In one of these
cabins lived Anna Fowler and her paramour,
Caesar Morris Yesterday Sheriff Lesner
received information that Morris had been
murdered, and on going to his house found
it to be true. The body Of the murdered
man was found in the fireplace with the
head. legs and arms completely severed
from it. presenting a horrible and CHASTITY
sight. A further search being made, the
blood-stalned axe which had done
the fatal work was also found
in the house. Anna Fowler was at once
suspected of the murder, and she was ar
rested The feeling among the eolored peO-
pie in the neighbOrhoOd was so strong
against the accused that she had to be
brought TO Norfolk at late hour last night
as il was feared that an attempt would be
made 10 lynch her. The alleged murderess
stated this morning that she is entirely in
nOcent OF the awful crime with which she
is charged; that she left home last Saturday
morning about 10 o'clock to visit one OF her
neighbors and did not return until yester-
day. when she found the door locked. She
got two men to draw the staple for her and
then entered the house, where she discOy-
cred that her husband had been murdered.
She at once gave an alarm The ciIcum-
stantian evidence against the accused is
very strong. The alleged murderess and
her victim are former residents OF this city,
having left here only few months ago.

ARMY Red Tape.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 16.-The president
has withdrawn the following army nomina-
tions made on the sth: Lieut.. Col. Nelson
B. Sweitzer to be colonel; Maj. Lewis Mer-
rill, to be lieutenant colonel; Capt. Edward
j. Spaulding, to be major; First Lieut.
Col Augur, to be captain. and Second
Lieut.. AlonZo l.. O'Brien to be first lieuten-
ant. This action Of the president is owing
to the retirement of Col. Hatch. Eighth
cavalry, practically settling very import
ant question in military promo
tions. The president, in effect MAIN
tains that an officer who has
been incapacitated from active service
though not yet retired, is not competent to
fill higher position than the one for which
he has been found disqualified. The pro-
motion upon which the question hinged was
that of Maj. Lewis Merrill of the Seventh
cavalry to be lieutenant colonel of the
Eighth cavalry. to succeed Lieut.. Col.
Sweitzer, the immediate successor of Col.
Hatch. Had Maj. Merrill been promoted
he would soon have been retired with the
increased rank and pay of lieutenant
colonel. AS the case now stands he will be
retired as major and the next major below
him. Maj. John K. Misener, Fourth cavalry,
will receive the promotion.
