TRAsx.wRECKING CANES.
Chaihisy Acquitted, Others Accused
Likely 90 he Liberated.


During the summer OF last year
several attempts were made TO wreck
trains on the eastern division Of the
Chesapeake and Ohio Railway Com.
pany, and August 24th success attended
the efforts Of the rascslly parties, when
freight train was run of near Morri-
sons, and two persons were killed.
The company secured the services OF
two OF Pinkerton's detectives, Me.
Laville and colored man named Will
son, and these were taken into the
employment Of the company and put TO
work in force Of section-hands. The
result Of their investigation was the ar
rest Of colored man named Arthur
Haskins, and later the arrest Of Mr..
George 4. Chalkley. The latter was
n section-msster, and the former had
been foreman under him.
Both accused were duly indicted in
Warwick county.
The motive ascribed by the detec-
tiyes for Mr.. Chalkley's alleged crime
was that the engineer Of one OF the
Trains was interfering with Chalkley in
his love affairs, and they sought TO es-
tablish the fact that every time the at
tempt was made to wreck train it
was expected that this particular engi-
neer would be along. Last week Has
kins was put on trial and found guilty
Of placing distractions on the track on
June Goth. The Jury gave him five
years in the penitentiary. Then Chalk
ley was put on trial. Judge Peek, Of
County Court presided with great abil-
ity and impartiality Mr.. NJ. 7. Hughes,
the Commonwealth attorney, prose-
cuted, and Colonel Tabb was the coun-
sci for the prisoner.
A great many witnesses were sum-
moned, including number from Rich
mond. The effort to prove the before
mentioned motive utterly failed. As a
last effort Mr.. Hughes put Haskins on
the stand. Haskins willingly testified,
but made no admissions as TO himself
and said nothing to inculpate Chalkley.
Mr.. Walker, OF Richmond, chief train
dispatcher, gave evidence from the re-
cords for which the prosecution was
uDpTepared.
The upsbot Of it all was that Mr..
Hughes, who bad prosecuted with con-
spicuous tact and zeal, candidly adj
mitted that the evidence did not justify
conviction. Colonel Tabb thereon
moved that the Court so instruct the
Jury, and Judge Peek did so. The
jury, without retiring. found verdict
of "not guilty." and the remaining
indictments having been nolle prose
guied, Chalkley was discharged from
custody and received the coDgratula-
tons Of numerous friends.
In view of the eminent success at
tending Colonel Tabb's efforts for his
client motion for a new trial in the
case Of Haskins has been made, and, it
is believed, will be granted, as be was
proceeded against on the theory that he
was acting as the tool Of Chslkley.
These trials took place at Warwick
Courthouse, sixty-two miles from
Richmond, on the Chesapeake and
Ohio road.
Richmond witnesses state that the
courthouse building there, new one,
is the best in Virginia.

The senate Committee on Commerce ~
70 examine the river-and-harbor OIL ITEM
by Item, and an extra stenogtepher has
been engaged to assist In taking testimony.
There are fears expressed that the Presi-
dent VIII veto the bill unless q material re-
duetiOn is made In the amount appropri-
ated.
General Joseph r. Anderson, OF Rich
mond. was visitor on the floor OF the
House yesterday In company with Con-
gressmen Tucker, 1rigg, aud Croxton.
The testimony taken by Mr.. fuckers

Godson and wife. Miss GOdson and Miss
Goss, Mayor Moore, Captain W. W. Bur-
CESS, all OF Orange. and Captain W. n.
Fowle. OF stanton, are IN the city.
Rumor has II that General Wheeler Will
hold Congressman Hepburn personally re-
sponsible for the language he used on the
iloor Of the House when the army-appro-
priation bill was under discussion.
A Nirginlan to-day propounded the fol.
lowing conundrum: IL senatorial courtesy
requires the retention OF the postmasters ct
Petersburg and Woodstock. why should not
the same courtesy be extended 10 tlte soma
tOr-elect In the case OF Lynchburg?"
The Senate Committee on Finance has
made q favorable report on the bill for the
reliefof William Fisher. OF Fran kiln county,
Va. Fisher was burned out OF house and
home a year ago, and lost quantity or
fruit-dlstilled brandy upon which there was
1891 due in taxes and penalties, from the
payment OF which he seeks relief.
AN UNUSUAL REPORT.
For once In the history OF legislative
bodies the minority report OF committee
Is kigned by a majority OF the body. The
House Committee on Commerce. with nine
members present, adopted a report by one
majority favorable to the bill 70 prohibit
the taxing by States OF commercial travel
lers. The minority report. signed by Messrs.
O'Ferrall. Crisp, Reagan, A. J. weaver OF
Iowa. and Morrow was drawn and Will soon
be presented. The minority report takes
the ground that the taxing az commercial
travellers does not fall under the law gov
erning Interstate commerce. but Is a tax
levied upon an individual who Memberships
nor purchases goods. and that the National
Government as q consequence, has no Ju-
risdiction In the matter, which is sub &c.
tive To the states.
The resent lance between X. w. Durham,
congressman from Chicago aud John A.
Logan IN personal appearance Is being no.
iiced. 1heir wives also look alike.

Many Of the sayings Of Mr.. Jones
