Plans to be Perfected for a convsn

Washington, d. G., Sept. 25.-The
negroes of the national capital are
discussing with lively interest the
prospect of an animated debate in
Congress this winter of the subject of
diSfranchicisement by the repeal of
the Fifteenth Amendment. This il.
terest has been greatly intensified
this week by the formal announcement
by Senator Carmack of Tennessee of
his intention to introduce a bill look
ing to the repeal of the amendment in
question.
Arrangements have been completed
for a negro mass meeting here this
evening to organize league to bring
before Congress the diSfranchiSement
of negroes in various parts of the
country, and to try to get that body
to pass laws to protect the vote of
cOlored citizens. Plans are to be per-
fected for convention of the most
prominent negroes in the United
States, to be called a few weeks before
Congress meets.

Three Days of Grace in
Payments to Be
Abolished
TO BREAK OLD CUSTOM
Three Days Will no Longer be Al
lowed in the Payment of Prom
issory Notes as Was Begun
Many Years Ago.

The law passed during the last Ses.
sion of the Georgia legislature, abOl-
lShing the three days of grace allowed
in the payment, discount or collection
of prOmiSsory notes in this state, will
go into effect on October l. The law
will not effect those notes now in ex-
iStence, but those made after the first
of next month.
Representative Calvin, of Richmond
introduced the bill, and one of it's
strongest supporters was Representa-
tive Slaton, of Fulton. The majority
of the states in the union have already
abolished the days of grace and the
varying laws relative to the payment
of notes caused endless confusion in
financial circles.
The custom of allowing three extra
days IN the payment of promisSory
notes was begun many years ago in
England in the days of stage coaches
and before the time of the telegraph
facilities. In many instances it was
impossible for men residing in the
country TO reach London on the exact
day that his note fell due, owing to
accidents along the route. and for that
reason he was allowed extra time.

CoroneTs Jury Exonorates the South

to Woman's Own Negligence.
The Verdict.

Hannah Maxwell, colored, was
struck by the incoming passenger
train at Sterling yesterday morning
shortly after o'clack and was killed
almost instantly.
Coroner Jennings was at once mott.
fed OF the accident and quickly sum.
moned jury and went to Sterling to
investigate the killing. The following
composed the jury: w. G. Ellenwood.
]. S. d. Williams, j. w. Chasten, S. j.
Gorton, r. j. Mathews, r. G. Jack
son.
After hearing all the evidence in the
case, the jury returned the following
verdict;
"We, the jury, after hearing the
testimony, find that Hannah Maxwell,
colored, came to her death by being
hit by engine No 1772 of the Southern
railway, by stepping in front of said
engine when about 100 feet away from
her. We find that death was caused
by her own negligence, and exonerate
said railroad from any blame OF
accident.'
seems that the woman was some
what deaf and she must have stepped
on the track before looking to see il
an engine was on it. She was walking
in the same direction that the engine
was coming and did not hear it ap.

mangled.
