Va. dispatch asserting that Robert
Teamoh, the colored member of the house
of representatives, who accompanied the
legislative committee on mercantile affairs
on its recent trip 10 the south, had been
snubbed by Gov. O'Ferrall OF Virginia and
others on account of his color and the
committee thereby insulted. has caused a
great deal of comment here. Hon. f. d.
Darling, chairman of the Senate commit
tee on mercantile affairs, said: There is
hardly a word of truth in 1t from the first
line to the last. In the first place it says
that had the governor known there was a
negro in the party he would not have ex-
tended the Invitation to the committee.
Gov. O'Ferrall knew Mr.. Teamoh was in
the party because he told me so. The
dispatch also says Mrs. O'FerralI imme-
diately withdrew from the parlor on see
ing Mr. Teamoh. The fact is she remain
ed in the parlor quite long time convers-
ing with the party. She did not leave the
parlor until the governor arose and asked
her to withdraw, as the gentlemen were
going to the dining room. Mr.. Teamoh
and Mr.. Mitchell, an alderman of Rich
mond, were in the party, and both went to
the dining room and sat at the table with
the governor and with the mayor of
Richmond There was not the slightest
embarrassment observed in either of these
gentlemen. on the contrary, they were
most cordial and polite and DESTROYS of en-
tertaining royalty a delegation from Mas
achusetts. This d'sI atch Is unusually iaap-
propriate as referring to Gov. O'Ferrall,
because he treated the colored man with
the utmost consideration, both at the
executive mansion and afterwards. when
as party we visited the state peniten-
tiary.
The only occasion in the south in which
the committee as a body accepted any
hospitality outside Of what might have
been accepted as individuals was in At
lanta, when 1t received an invitation from
w. A. Hemphill of the Atlanta Constitu-
ton to bring the committee to the Con-
stitution building and meet some prom
inent men of Atlanta. who were inter-
ested in the proposed exposition of cotton
industries The committee accepted the
invitation and met there, some forty or
fifty citizens OF Atlanta.
The president of the exposition invited
me, Mr. Bancroft House chairman Of the
committee; Mr. Moriarity and Mr.. Teamoh
to speak to the meeting. Everything said
by these gentlemen was received with
cordial appreciation. We did not go
south to make any unnecessary war upon
their customs, and nothing for which Mr..
Teamoh asked in the south was denied.
Mr.. Teamoh himself grasped the situation
of affairs and assured the committee many
times during the trip home that he was
abundantly satisfied and pleased with his
reception in the south"

A Decision Against the Road by
FIorida's Supreme Court.
Tallahassee, Fla, March BIN the SUI
preme court to-day Justice Ihddon, for
the court, handed down a decision against
the Florida Central and Peninsular rail-
road, and in favor of the state for back
taxes for the years 1879, 1880. and 1884,
amounting to $4,000. The lines of the road
from Jacksonville to Chattahoochee, in
GLIDING the St. Marks and Monticello
branches, from Fernandina to Cedar Keys
and from Waldo to Ocala are held liable
to sale for these taxes for the years men
toned. From Ocala to wildwood it is held
liable for the taxes of 1881. From Wildwood
to Plant City and Tampa it is held to be
exempt.
This suit was decided in favor of the
railroad Dec. /, 1898, by Circuit Judge
John F. White at Live Oak, so far as these
particular back taxes were concerned. Col.
John A. Henderson represented the rail-
road company and Attorney General La
mar appeared for the state. The latter
appealed from Judge Whites decision to
the June term last year of the supreme
court 1t is expected that Col. Henderson
will appeal to the United States supreme
court Not only the state, but all the
counties through which the road runs
are helped by the decision unless it should
be reversed by the higher courts.
