AHabeas Corpus Case.

In the case Of Fry rs. Moses, Super
intendent Of the Penitentiary. a writ oi
hdbeaS corpus has been awarded by the
Court Of Appeals. Joseph Fry, the
petitioner, is from Greene county, and
was tried for felony in the County
Court Of Greene county, convicted, and
sent to the penitentiary for eighteen
years. Upon that judgment he obtain
ed writ of error to the Circuit Court
OF Greene county, and that court
affirmed the judgment Of the County
Court. He then, through his counsel,
Messrs. Davis & Harmon, of CharlOttes-
vile, and Stephens & Thomas,
OF Greene county, applied for
writ Of error to the Supreme Court Of
Richmond, which was awarded; but, it
is alleged, while it was on its way, and
before it reached the proper officials OF
Greene county, Fry was brought here
and lodged in the penitentiary, where
he is now confined. Hence his counsel
have sued out writ Of hdbeds corpus,
addressed to the Superintendent OF the
Penitentiary, directing the prisoners
body to be brought before the Court OF
Appeals tomorrow.

The ice in the James was breaking
up very gradually yesterday. The cur
rents which were open were widening
slowly and some small ones were being
made.
The rain up the Valley Of the Jane S
was comparatively light and il will not
cause the river to rise more than few
feet, if at all. 1t is now probable that
the gorging Of ice in the bends Of the
river will not be great.

Cured almost Immediately, and the

CALLED TO ORDER.

The meeting was called to order by
Colonel Purcell, and ex-MayOr J. 7.
Beckham, Of Alexandria, was made
chairman Colonel Purcell was re-
ques'ed to act as secretary.
Colonel Purcell: Gentlemen, Mr..
Elicit, the chairman Of the Chamber OF
Commerce Committee on Inland
Trade, telegraphed you requesting your
attendance here to-day for the purpose
Of meeting us to consider the railroad
bill which provides for the election by
the Legislature Of three gentlemen as
railroad commissioners for the State.
The Colonel then read the bill, com
menting on its different features and
calling attention TO the 18th section,
and said that so far as Richmond in
teTests were concerned they had fully
made up their minds, and that the bill
met the views Of tie railroad-men,
except the 18th section, and upon that
we desire to hear your views and the
Colonel further SAID I'VE want a
board Of commissioners Of the highest
character and ability, appointed by the
Governor and approved by the Senate.
We want them to be paid such salaries
as will insure competent men for the
places. and we want this Board to have
the power to look at the books of any
railroad, and to hold their misdeeds up
to the public eye; and that this board
shall recommend such legislation as may
from time be necessary"
Dir. K. E. Blankenship, president Of
the Chamber of Commerce, said that
there were present number Of railroad
men, and be would move that Colonel
Buford, of the Richmond and Danville
road. and others, address the meeting
and give their views upon the bill.
VIEWS OF COLONEL BUFoRD.
Colonel Buford said that he did not
expect to be called upon to discuss the
features Of the bill, but would give his
views briefly. He referred to the sug-
gestion, which he understood had been
made by some Of the businessmen,
that the commission be constituted by
appointment Of the Governor, by and
with the advice and consent Of the
Senate, and stated that in his judgment
it would be wise provision, as likely
to contribute to the selection of the
most efficient incumbents. He believed
that the bill SO modified would be re-
gsrded by the railroad interests Of the
State as not unjust or harsh TO those
interests, if intslligently administered,
and that the railroads would give it a
fair trial, with view to redress irrssa-

to arbitrarily restrict railroads, tending
as they do to build up the prosperity
and business of Norfolk. He asked
that no railroad commission, with
its iIon.clad powers. be put upon the
railroads. He spoke in explanation Of
the quotation Mr. Slaughter made from
the report Of the Georgia railroad COM
mission, and said il had hidden mean
ing; that the COO miles Of railroad
which had been built since the adoption
Of q railroad commission had been con-
tracted for before, and that last year

failed to pass the Senate by one vote.
MR.. M'CoY, OF FRONT ROYAL.
Mr.. Mccoy, from the Chamber Of
Commerce Of Front Royal, said that
from nothing had sprung up an income
to bis section of about s275, 200 per

man well known to Virginia people
Mr.. John 5. Barbour, late president OF
the Virginia Midland railroad.
In the course OF his remarks Mr..
Mccoy said /: "We want the money
of our northern friends to come here

what reception we can give them
they will be welcome" Mr.. Mccoy
was in favor Of the bill with the excep.
ton Of section l3.
MR.. NEALE, OF DANvILLE.
Mr.. Neale, from Danyille, said his
Board had been told yesterday
that capital would be Withdrawn from
the State if this bill passed. In the in
terest Of the businessmen Of Danyille
he asked that the bill be passed, even if
the thirteenth section had to be left out.
He believed that great many grievances
that Danyille had would be rectided by
its passage.
RICHMOND REASONS.
Colonel Purcell said that his Board
advocated the abolition Of the 18th
section for business reasons. Respon-
ponsive to a remark from Colonel
Slaughter, not over complimentary to
New EDglanders. Colonel Purcell com-
plimented the zeal Of New Englanders,
some of whom. he said, have come
here and erected monuments IN our
State as testimonials Of the generosity of
their hearts and their business enter
prise. They have helped to erect a
monument right here in this city which
shows the goodness Of their hearts
the Soldiers UOme-and their desire
to promote the welfare of the State.
lie also said that one who wore the
blue dared to advocate upon the floor
Of Congress the claims Of a Confed-
crate soldier, and the people Of this
Commonwealth will not permit them
to be decried. Applause
Mr.. X. Z. Blankenship advocated the
bill, with the elimination Of the l3.h
section.
Mr.. Townes, Of DanyilIe, said the
people Of his city were opposed to the
18th section they did not want it.
The committee here adjourned TO
meet to-day at 10 o'clock A. ~, with

public feeling on the subject.
Colonel A. S. Buford earnestly urged
striking out the thirteenth section Of the
bill as proposed, which, in conierring
on the commissioners the power to fix
rates, adopted principle that he be-
lieved would be disastrous to the best
interests and the future prosperity OF
the State that it was opposed to the
experience of Massachusetts,, New York q,
and several Of the northwestern States,
where the most satisfactory results
from all the legislation on the subject
had been obtained.
LYNCHBURG HEARDFRoM.
Mr.. Slaughter, Of Lynchburg, earn
estly opposed striking out the 18th sec
tion, saying: " Strike it out. and you
bad as well pass no bill, and that at a
meeting Of the Chamber Of Commerce
held in Lynchburg all Of the members
of the Board were present, and they
had drafted bill, which would be
submitted to the Legislature. lie read
the Georgia law, and said that it was
much more severe on railroads than
this, and that under its operations
Georgia built her roads, and her people
had become rich and prosperous.
Mr.. Blankenship took issue with Mr..
Slaughter and advocated the adoption
Of the bill with the thirteenth section
stricken out.
