Mary Washington to Answer for the
Murder of Isaiah Harden.
The solicitor general and Detective
Morgan were busy yesterday having sum
moned the witnesses for the state against
Mary Washington, who is charged with
the murder of Isaiah Harden The trial
OF the woman who is supposed to have
committed this horrible crime will take
place tomorrow, and the court room will
no doubt be filed with the morbidlycuriou
to hear the details of the affair, if the de-
tails come out.
The evidence against Mary is at present
rather strong. Her confession made on
several occasions has been corroborated
by subsequent circumstances, and the
finding Of the body of the negro. There
seems little doubt of the fact that She
will be convicted, the only question being
the strength of the defense put up which
may mitigate the degree of the crime.
She will be defended by Messrs. Alex
ander S. Lawrence and Aeneas S. WAY.

INTERESTING MEETINGS.
The Railroads to Meet Again Next
Month at Harrogate, Tenn.

month at HarroRate, Tenn.
Maj. w. F. Shellman, traffic manager
of the Central railroad, returned yester-
day from New York, where he has been
attending the meetings of the Southern
Railway and Steamship Association. He
says both the association and its exeCu-
tive board held very interesting sessions.
After discussion of the matter it was
hnallN agreed said Mai. Shelluan. TO
restore railroad rates to the former stand
ards Aug. /. While others were concerned
IN 1t, the representatives of some of the
railroads seemed To think that after the
rates had been put down by the commits
Sloner OF the association the Central rail
road had made agreements to keep them
down until Aug I. Some of the lines had
10 admit that they were becoming rather
weary OF the existing low rates and they
endeavored to have them restored July 9
or at much earlier date than has been
contemplated.
1t requires a good deal of study and
thought" Major Shellman said, Ito for
mulate an agreement which will be ac-
ceptable to all the railroads, and the as
soclatlon has been taking them up one by
one and ratifying them unanimously.
They are trying to get the agreement in
shape so that it can be adopted as whole
at the meeting to which the meeting held
IN New York was adjourned. This meet
ing VIII be held at Harrogate, Tenn, July
II, at the Four Seasons Hotel"
Both the meetings of the association
and OF the executive board were peaceful
and harmonious, and it is believed that
the agreement will be made satisfactory
to all the railroads in the territory, and
that tney will all come into the associa-
ton. All but very few of the lines were
represented at these meetings. One or
two OF the western lines failed to show
up namely, the Mobile and Ohio and the
Kansas City, Memphis and Birmingham.
III is believed, however, that the repre-
sentatlves of these roads were I'M
avoldably absent, and that their roads
VIII come into the association under
fair and satisfactory agreement of
the transportation companies which re-
Gently withdrew from the association
namely, the Sam road. the Norfolk and
Western and the Merchants and Miners
transportation Company, the latter was
the only one represented at the meeting
What action the others will take is not
known. Mai. Shellman saws it is the
opinion of most of the members that all
the lines will come in when the proper
time comes for the signing of the agree
ment.
Maj. Shellman said nothing had been
done as yet with regard to the differen-
tlal TO the South Atlantic ports. He said
ne did not see how any action could be
taken IN regard to the matter Just at the
present time.
One of the articles discussed at the
meeting referred particularly to traffic
through the South Atlantic ports, affect
ing the railroads which run to these
ports. This, however, was not acted on
The new agreement will probably be
fully and completely arranged and signed
a1ter the meeting at Harrogate, Tenn,

A BABY IN A SEWER.
In So Bad State That Neither Sex
Nor Color Gould Be Determined.


A good deal of excitement was created
yesterday afternoon about O'Clock by
the finding of the body Of an infant child
in a sewer at Anderson and Barnard
streets. William Hewett an employee of
the city, was cleaning out the sewer at
that point. and while removing the rub
hiSh he found the childs body under a
pile OF stuff which had evidently been
thrown in on H. CD
Coroner Dixon was notified as soon as
the body was discovered. lie was at the
Savannah, Florida and Western railway
wharves, but FASTENED over as quick as
possible. He found the body of the child
so much decomposed that it was almost
impossible to tell its sex or color. Whether
it is a boy or girl is not known, but it has
more the appearance of white child than
a colored one.
The body was that of very small but
well developed child and from the man
ner in which it was hidden in the sewer,
there is no mistaking the intent of those
who did the work There is no clew
whatever as to who put the body in the
sewer, and whether it was a murder or
the child was placed there after it had
died in order to hide some other crime
will perhaps forever remain a mystery
In one thing success has followed, and
that is the body is in such condition
that it affords no clew to work on.
The finding of the body created great
excitement in the neighborhood and from
$50 to 200 people gathered around and
wanted to see it. Coroner Dixon removed
it from the place and viii investigate the
matter to-day. 1t may be that some one
will come forward with a portion of the
facts which will lead to a determination
of the case, but otherwise there seems no
way to get at the bottom of it.

BAKING POWDER.
RUNS OF THE RACERS.
Great Sport on the New York Jockey
Clubs Closing Day.

Morris Park Race Track, June 19.-The
spring meeting of the New York Jockey
Club closed to-day. A brilliant pro
gramme, containing the great Eclipse,
the Belmont stakes and the match race
between Correction and Stonelle, was
offered by the management, but a heavy
thunder storm kept the attendance down
only 5000 persons being present. The
track was bit muddy and slow.
The great Eclipse stakes, valued at
$50, 000, was the best race of the day from
every point of view. 1t was won by G.
Littleheld's Connoisseur, who was grandly
ridden by Snapper Garrison. The three
great knights of the pigskin-G Garrison,
Taral and Simms-agaiu engaged in a
contest for superiority in this race, and
again Garrison came out the victor. Up
to the last sixteenth, Sir Galahad, ridden
by Taral, and Utica with Simms
up, were in the lead, running nose
and nose, with their jockeys working like
demons. Connoisseur had run very slug
gishly in the early part of the race, but
Garrison had worked hard with him. and
at the sixteenth pole, joined the leaders.
A terrific finish followed, in which Gar
risOn landed ConnOisseur a winner by d
nose in the last jump. Sir Galabad beat
Utica a neck for the place.
Henry OF Navarro captured the Bel
mont IN very easy style. He was prohib-
tive favorite. Stonelle won the match
race quite handiiy from Correction. Sum
