srHE JUDICIARY ORDINANCE.
Its Adoption by the Convention Bright Out
look for Settling Suffrage Question.
(By the Associated Press. ]


Richmond, Va, Jan. 9-The COnstitu.
tional Convention today took final vote
on the judiciary ordinance of the Con-
stitution and it was adopted as a whole
and referred to the Committee on Fina
Revision. There was two hours filibus-
tering to prevent getting a vote on cleo
ton of Supreme Court judges by the peo-
pie and it was successful The commit
tee of the whole adopted the section
fixing appropriations to the university
adopted an amendment, adding the Vir-
ginia Military Institute, and voted down
all other amendments.
The outlook for speedy settlement
of the suffrage question seems to be
growing brighter. After wrangling foI
nearly two hours last night. the Demo
cratic conference determined to meet each
night except Saturday nights, and con
slider the several propositions, as in
committee of the whole, until some con-
clusicn shall be reached by the Demo
cratic members of the convention
The most significant thing done, save
that noted above, was the announcement
by Attorney General Anderson on the
part of the minority of the Suffrage Com
mittee that they had determined to with
draw their plan ard offer that of Senator
Glass as a substitute for that of the
majority. This brings the fight in the
conference down to one between the two
plans mentioned above and amendments
will be offered with the view of perfect
ing them and then the vote will be ia
ken.

MAY GET counsel
10 Appear For N, C. Road in
South Dakota Suit.
Meeting Of Directors Yesterday Who Declared
Per Cent Dividend For First
linz,

The directors of the North Carolina
Railroad met yesterday in the Executive
Office, it being the. regular annual meet
ing.
The most important action was the de-
claring of a seven per cent. dividend,
three and half per cent is payable
February 10th and three and half per
cent. August 10th. This is the first time
the State has realized seven per cent.
from this property. The State has been
receiving 61A per cent interest for it's in
vestment in this property. This ninety
nine year lease, which was effected sew
raj years ago, made this increase in the
rate of interest
The State will realize $50, 900 additional
for its holdings in the North Carolina
Road as the result in the increase in the
rate of interest.
At the meeting yesterday the South
Dakota Bond suit was discussed along
with other matters There were sug-
gestions that conditions might arise
whereby the States interest in the North
Carolina Railroad would be involved
There was a motion that the President
of the Road be authorized to employ
counsel to assist in the States defense
of the suit and protect the interests OF
the road. 1t was agreed that if occasion
should arise necessitating the employ
ment of counsel the president could call
the directors together for such action as
might be required.
President Hugh Chatham presided at
yesterdays meeting, and the Secretary
Mr.. Dan Hugh Mclean was present II
was full meeting, all the directors be-
ing present save Mr.. L. Banks Holt, who
is i'll at home.

Jerome Begins Inquiry into

Tunnel Disaster.

New York, Jan. 9.-District Attorney
mel disaster today. a number of wit
nesses We're examined, including the
trainmen on the wrecked trains and Di-
vision Superintendent Franklin. They
all refused to discuss their testimony.
At the conclusion of the investigation
District Attorney Jerome announced that
as far as the evidence which is to be
submitted to the coroner at the inquest
is concerned, the investigation has prac-
tically been concluded He added, how
ever, that the investigation Will be car
ried on for some time yet and some
more witnesses will be examined this
week. He declined to comment on the
evidence. He admitted that the present
grand jury may be asked to act in the
matter All the evidence went TO how
that the engineer was careful man and
of good reputation, both as citizen and
an employee. 1t was learned, though,
that Wischow passed his examination as
engineer only last August, before that he
was a fireman. OF late he had been act
ing as engineer at intervals. WischoW
was said to be in a state of nervous coll
lapse in prison today. His wife wished
him during the day.
District Attorney Jerome said he wish
ed his investigation to be as thorough
as possible, and that he would confer
with Coroner Scholer to that end.
1T is possible said Mr. Jerome, that
the engineer only was at fault. 1t is also
possible that the railway. company did
not provide the engineer with the devices
known to the knowledge of men in rail
road affairs. If there was a duty i'm
posed upon any person. did that person
do it? If he did not. no matter who he
is, he shall be punished.
In New Rochelle, where all but one of
the dead lived, business was almost en-
tirely suspended today. OF those hurt
twenty-nine lived in New Rochelle and
numbers of their relatives spent the
night in New York near the hospital
Today several of the bodies of the dead
were taken to New Rochelle The town
was in mourning and many persons who
had no relatives in the wreck made Wis
its to those who had suffered loss and
offered sympathy and assistance.

Investigating Grain Rates
lRy the Associated Press. J


Kansas City, Jan. 9.-The Interstate
Commerce Commissioners examined seven
Witnesses today regarding grain rates
from Western points to the Atlantic sea-
Loard and other Eastern destinations.
They returned to Chicago tonight, after
announcing that the investigation would
be resumed in that city January "a, when
it is believed several big railway officials
will be called.
The expected rush of railroad officials
and grain shippers today to confess they
had made and received freight rebates
or cut rates did not occur. In fact what
information was elected was obtained
only after persistent questioning on the
part of the commissioners. The most
direct admission was that of John A.
Robinson. Of the firm of Hall & Robinson,
Of Kansas City. which is said to control
the export grain business OF the Mis-
souri, Pacific. Mr.. Robinson admitted that
w. d. Stith, freight traffic manager of
the Missouri Pacific, made him rate on
export grain from three to five cents per
hundred lower than the published export
tariff. Other testimony went to show
that Kansas City was made to suffer
from discrimination by through lines be-
cause of the arbitrary rate on grain in

LEGAL PHASES OF scKLEY CASE.
The Attorney General is Considering Whether
all Legal Forms We're Complied With.
lBy the Associated Press


Washington, Jan. 9-The Pos. ton:or-
row will say:
1.-THE case of Rear Admiral Schley is
now being considered by che Attorney
General for the purpose of discovering
whether there was any illegality in con-
nectiOn with the Court of Inquiry. 1T is
understood that. at the recent conference
between the President and Rear Admiral
Schley, the latter pointed ont some al
legged violations of law in regard to the
court, and these matters have been
deemed worthy of examination.
The Attorney General is not to pass
upon the meris of the case, but will deal
solely with it's legal phase. If he shall
find that the court was. properly consti-
tuted. that the precept was legally
drawn, and that the rules of law were
followed as to the evidences, it will then
be within the province of President TO
consider the case upon it's merits If the
Attorney General decides that there.
were illegalities, as claimed by Admiral
Schley, the verdict of the court would
be vitiated. 1t is understood that Adj
miral Schley's future course concerning
a formaFappeal in writing to the Presi.
dent will depend very largely upon the
decision of the Attorney General"
