Judge Hammond about to Design to make way for M. J. Clark—Legislator* Nick lu Atlanta—Murder by a Drun ken Kuilroud Man, Etc. Atlanta, October 17.—The Amount of litigation nn«l legislation iu which tho Mari etta nud North Georgia railroad boa figured prominently indicate that it has been an elephant—n kind of Jumbo to the .State. Jumbo finally yielded un the ghost, but this elephant is stili on baud. The State has in the past done much for this road but the Jute Legislature in its eagerness and haste to aid the Northern capitalists who are now building it Hanked and violated the consti tution, in the opinion of souud lawyers, and ignored the well settled policy of the State in order to make a donation of over Sss,- 000 to the enterprise. While nmeh of the work of the Legislature is open to severe criticism and is deserving of condemnation, this piece of legislation seems to have de liberately gone beyond all bounds and ought uot to be allowed to stand. The at tention of the burdened tax payers of Geor gia is invited to this piece of business trum peted by a body which 1ms lmrdly a par allel in the history of our legislation. I mu informed that the attention of the Su preme Court will be called to it at the proper time. In the infancy of the enter prise the State loaned the company a large .sum of money- about *0*1,000, and sIg.cihj worth of iron mils. The company secured the State by issuing mortgage bonds cover ing the amount, and the State generously agreed that if the road should be completed by January 1st, 1886, no interest should be exacted. Subsequently, to further aid tin* company, the State loaned them the use of 230 convicts free of all charge for tho term of three years. Penitentiary companies No. 2 ami 3 utt«rwnrds put in a claim for these convicts and after considerable litiga tion secured them. It was asserted that the railroad company lmd the service of the convicts us grunted them by the State, but they set up a claim against the State never theless for their loss. They appealed to tin- last Legislature to extend the time iu which the road was to be completed, asked to be released not only from the interest, but from the principal of the bonds as well. As a business proposition the Legislature might well have entertained the proposi tion to extend the time for the comple tion of the road and release them from the payment af accrued interest, and would no doubt have been gratefully accepted by the company ns generous treatment at the liam is of the St at.*, lint the proposition to cancel the bonds outright ami relieve the company from all obligation was rather astoundiug. It is mure astounding that it should have received the indorsement of tlie Legislature ami the approval of the Governor. The resolution as adopted provides that if tlie company shall complete the road from Kllijny to the North Carolina line in twenty months from January 1st, 1831*, building an average of one and half mil** per month, and shall file with the Secretary of State an agreement to release the State from all claims equitable and otherwise against the State, then the State shall credit tlie company on its bonds at the rate of $2,000 for each one and a half miles com pleted and when the road is so finished shall cancel the bonds and discharge the mortgage. It was strongly urged against this pro ceeding that the Marietta and North Gt or- gia railroad had no claim against the State and that it had already had the service of the convicts for the full time stipulated ns adjudged by the Supreme Court in tho case of Penitentiary Companies 2 and 3 vs, John \Y. Nelms, principal keeper, and their rights fully investigated and adjudica ted.—(71 Go. 11., p. 332.) Further, that tlie only claim the road could have would lit- for the time in which it was deprived of the convicts. Even if they hud been de prived of the whole number of convicts for the- term of throe years, the estimated hire would not exceed 810,000. The resolution gives them nearly $30,000 iu excess of that sum. This appropriation, ns it is in the na ture of an appropriation, must therefore be considered a donation to the railroad and is n direct violation of article 7, section Id, paragraph 1. of the constitution, which says: “The General Assembly shall not by vote, resolution, or order, grant any dona- nation or gratuity iu favor of any person, corporation or association.” That is tlu- law and the highest we have, and whatever may be the individual views of members as to the propriety or policy of granting .State aid to railroads, they must be bound by the constitutional provisions. The very last bill introduced in the House, No. 3113, by Mr. Ham-11, of Web ster, showed tlmt there was still left ft sense of the wrong put upon the tux payers and some disposition to wipe it from the records. It was “a bill to be entitled an act to repeal, annul and declare null r.nd void and of no effect a resolution pus - d by the General Assembly and uppr -x. ‘ ’ *r 18-33, en titled a resolution i" • the Gover nor to settle claims l> State and tho Marietta and North gift lluilroad Company." This bill of course was led nt once to the slaughter. If such legislation ns this is allowed to stand wlmt may we not expect from future legislatures? RESIGNATION OF JUDGE HAMMOND. A Cut and Dried Programme of tlie Gover nor to Appoint Marsliiill J. Clark. Atlanta, October 17.—Some day ♦ ago there was a rumor that Judge W. R. Ham mond, of the Atlanta circuit, would soon resign his office. According to the state ment of u reporter published iu nu Atlanta paper, who interviewed him on the subject, Judge Hammond gave the rumor an em phatic denial. Judge Hammond says now that he told the reporter that he lmd not resigned, and htul not authorized any one to announce that he lmd done so. I lmve the positive information to-night from a reliable source that Judge Hammond bus fully autl finally determined to resign from the bench, and his resig nation will probably bo formally tendered the Governor on Monday or within a few days nt furthest, inquiry ns to the cause of the resignation elicited the information that Judge Hammond and Hon. John I. Hall, of Gritfiu, formerly judge of the Flint circuit, have agreed to enter into a partnership for the practice of law. Indeed, the arrangement 1ms gone so far tliut the articles of partnership have al ready been determined and probably signed. ^ The now linn will swing its sign about November 1st and have offices on the corner of Whitehall and Alabama streets. In consequence of this arrangement Judge Hall will movo his family here from Gritfin. He is justlv considered itninn. He is justly considered ont the ablest and soundest lawyers in Georgia, and the Gritfin bar nud the bur of the Flint , circuit will suffer a great loss. Judge Ham mond is himself an able lawyer, and 1ms won an enviable reputation on the bench of this circuit. The new firm promises to be one of the strongest in the State. The latest report, which comes to mo from the same source, is, that Judge Hammond's resignation will be followed by this pro- gniuiiuc: The Governor will appoint, to succeed him on the bench, Judge Marshall J. Clark, now judge of tho City Court of Atlanta, His promotion from the judg- sllip of the City Court to that of the Supe rior Court, aside from his personal and professional merits, is attributable to the fact that he and Governor McDaniel were schoolmates together at Mercer, and have always been warm friends. If Judge Clark is elevated to the Superior Pourt bench, it will createn vacancy in the judgeship of tin: City Court, which it is reported that the Governor will fill by the appointment of Howard Van Epps. All this is considerable of a programme, to bo cut and dried in this way, but it is understood, how correctly I do not know, that Governor McDaniel is already committed to it. Whether he will carry it out remains to be seen. The next few days will test the accuracy of the information. JUDGE M’CAY. A Ouch!Ion Wlit-tlicr He Ha* l*ermnm*titl.v Itet-ovcred Ills Mind. Atlanta, October 10.—There is some doubt on tlie minds of a number of attor neys who practice in the United States Court here whether Judge McCay lms entirely or permanently recovered from the mental atlliction which removed him from the bench sometime ago. A few of them speak in very positive terms about his m.m- n»*r of conducting the business of the court and are of the opinion that his remaining in office does not promise well for the proper or healthy ad ministration of justice. Having heard something of this your correspondent vis ited the court room a short while yesterday nud was in attendance there to-day for some time. There was very little of inter est going on and little to attract attention. There was less air of dignity than is usual in tin* United States courts, nud the judge seemed more active in the examination and cross-examination of witnesses than is cus tomary or proper. One or two lawyers have objected very strongly to having witnesses taken out of their bands by the court, uud in the interest of the prosecution. The chief business of the court to-day seemed to be fixing and suspending the sentences of poor, wretched, ignorant mountain moon shiners. It must be said that these sen tences were the lightest that could be im posed, and even these sentences were in nearly every case suspended, greatly to the surprise of the poor devils, who have hith erto come down to the United States Court without hope, and received no mercy. It may be that his recent troubles have stirred the conscience of the court about the out rageous conviction of the Hanks county boys, which was compassed by tin* violation of law and humanity. It will take a vast deal of leniency to ignorant moonshiners to wipe out this stain on the United States District Court for the Northern district of Georgia. If the Judge’s symptoms do not get worse than tln-y are at present, it is not likely there wifi be any serious complaint against his continuing on the bench, but there will necessarily be more or less apprehension in the couduct of all business brought be fore this court. The Teeouapu has already referred to this mutter frankly and forcibly, as its importance demnnded. It is to be hoped there will be no further occasion to emphasize it. ABOUT THE MAIL SERVICE. A Delay In tlie ••TelcitrapliV Arrival Causes Frowns, Atlanta, October 10. —There is more fuss than ever made hero bv that large element of the population of Atlanta tlmt relies on the Telegraph for news, when the paper gets here late iu the morning or fails of the early delivery. The Central reached here at 8 o’clock this morning, when it should have come in nt 7:30, and the carriers started on their rounds without the Tele graph. It has come to pass that the people here won’t submit to this kind of proceed ing without vigorous kicking. To add to the trouble, or rather to complete it, when the papers did land tit the post-office they were not distributed ill the boxes till after 11 o’clock and quite n number of subscrib ers searched their boxes several times in vain tor the old reliable. Your correspondent made a pop call at the office of Col. Terrell, the superintendent of the Southern railway mail service, to lodge o >mplaint of the matter, and find out the cause of the delay. Col. Terrell and his vigilant assistant tinned themselves with sharp sticks and proceeded to hunt for tho culprits. They located the delay iu the Atlanta post-office and promised to make further investi gation into the matter. While thev were heating around, I picked up the following iteius'about the postal service. In this di vision, the fourth, are engaged 305 railway clerks. Since President Cleveland went in to office there have been 111 new appoint ments out of that number, indi cating tlmt 111 of the old incum bents have been induced to devote their en ergies and talents to other and perhaps less ci ngenial pursuits. The. remaining 104, or many of them, are in a state of uneasiness regarding their tenure of office, and thnik their days rr numbered. A glance at the recent annual report of the postal service for this divis ion showed that for the year there v operation eighty-five lines of railway. Letter package* distributed 5,291,21*1. Owing to the heavy mins, the department 1ms been greatly troubled about tlie Florida and Cuba mails, which have been blocked up for a week or more. Colonel Terrell has received a dispatch announcing tlmt through connection was made tor the first time lust night, but in a roundabout way. LEU’ OVER. A Sick Senator itiul Paralyzed Deprcscntn- tlve still in Atlanta. Atlanta, October 17.—Nearly nil the members of the last Legislature have re turned to their homes and families. Of those yet with us two are lying to-night on beds of sickuess, and the probability is very strong tlmt neither will leave Atlanta alive. I refer to Mr. Avary, the member from Columbia county, who had an attack of paralysis some weeks ago, which it is thought will result fatally. He is an uncle of tl:3 Doctors Avary of this city and is having the best treatment and care possible. He is a gentleman of fine character ami bad the esteem of all bis associates in the lower ho tisi*. The other is Senator Fuller, of tin* Four teenth district. He is confined to his bed at Mrs. Purtett’s, ou North Forsyth street, by a complication of diseases. I heard from Col. L. M. Lamar, of Pulaski, who lms shown him great attention in his illne»*r, tlmt unless then* is a reaction soon recovery will be impossible. Senator Fuller is a rest- dent of Wilcox county. He served three terms in the House before hdScame to tin* Senate, and lms shown himself all through bis public service a wise, conscientious and faithful legislator. •fudge Wright on the Commission. Atlanta, October 16.—I asked Judge William Wright this morning what he j thought the effect of killing the railroad j bill in the late Legislature would be upon the Democratic party in Georgia. I “As far as I can see,” said he, “it will i have no significant effect. It involved a ! question rather of pecuniary interest than political policy, I think. I will sav this, however, continued the Judge, “I believe if the railroad bill lmd been submitted to a vote of the people they would lmve iudorsed it by a good round majority. The commission lms too much power aud should be modified. Fatally stabbed* Atlanta, October 17.—Early to-night An derson Rush, of the East Tennessee shop, filled up with whisky, weut to his home on Windsor street and was quarrelling with bis wife, when a man named Olesby, who was passing along the street, stooped in front of the house aud was listening, when Rush went out, abused him and ordered him to move ou. Oglcshv started ou and looked back, when Rush attacked him, Oglesby defended himself with rocks, when Rush drew a knife and stabbed him in the back of the neck and side. He is not ex pected to live until morning. Architects With Folded Hands. Atlanta, October 17.—Leading architects here say that their business now amounts to nothing. They have never known such a falling off. This is the worst fall in this line ever experienced in Atlanta. It is stated that the killing of the railroad bill and the agitation of the prohibition anestinn in this county lms hud much to do with bring about this state of affairs. Tlie First Story or the Capitol. Atlanta, October 16.—The first story of the new capitol building has been com pleted and is twelve feet from the grade. It is ready for tin* iron work, which is to-day being unloaded from the cars. The main engine lms been in good repair since last Saturday and the work is now goiug on steadily both day and night.

Ga., (via Social Circle), October 16.—Hi 1 McGaiigliey wits hung here to-day for the murder of his wife. A large crowd was in town. On the way to the gallows told the crowd he would meet them heaven. At the gallows he said : I Hiu sorry for what I done uid am ready to die. I hope all will take warning from thin. I want tuy go. I want my body Riven to my friend* for burial. They ran take my life but it is only on earth. I am going to heaven. Taka warning, for you see how n poor negro can come to death. Wish all well aud want to meet you in heaven.

Tlie Dope llreuk* Twice, Imt Finally the Kxecut loner Does l*i» Work. Indianapolis, October 16.—A special to the Daily News from Crawfordsville, Ind., says: John Coffee was lmnged here to-day. The drop fell at 12:32 o'clock. He was cuted for the murder of an old named McMillan and his wife in January last, the house being burned afterwards to bide the crime. During bis imprisonment be made three confessions, implicating at various times several other partiei Jaiucs Dennis was also sentence to death for his com with the crime, but lie was given trial by the Supreme Court, and will um\ doubtless be released, although last night he was removed to another county as a pre caution against possible trouble. Coffee fins been utterly prostrated since last night aud refused food. The efforts of his spiritual adviser this morning failed to afford him any consolation, nud he lmd to be carried to the scaffold. Before the drop fell lu* made a short speech. The rope broke twide, but was finally adjusted satisfactorily, and. after hanging twelve minutes, life was pro nounced extinct. Two Druthers Murdered by Tramps. Hazleton. 1*a., October 16. -Between H and ii o'clock hist night, at Seybertsville, a small village nine miles from here, four tramps entered a small house some distance from the main road, iu which lived two bachelor brothers, John and William Kesh r, aged respectively fifty and fifty-four years, and demanded a large sum of money which was known to be secreted about the house. The Hesters refused to reveal where the money was hidden, and the tramps then bound them both hand aud foot aud killed them. The brothers hud lived in a frame shanty about one mile front Seybertsville tor thirty years. Thov gained a living by cultivating a small paten of ground and doing odd jobs for neighbor ing farmers, and by economy managed to save several thousand dollars, which was generally supposed to be secreted in the house. With them lived John Kosher, Jr., an illegitimate son of the older of the two brothers. When the young man returned to the house abouto’clock last night, he was horrified on the discovery of the dead bodies of bis father and uncle lying on the floor. He onicklv alarmed the neighbors, who hurried to the scene of the tragedy and an examination showed that John had been shot through the head,and that William had been beaten to death with a heavy club, bis bead being horribly crushed l»y repeated blows. Several times yesterday four trumps were noticed lurking iu tlu* vicinity, uud tlie police authorities say they lmve convincing evidence that they are the persons who committed the crime. A search is now being made for them. Tlu* drawers and trunks in the house bad been ransacked, showing that the object of the murder was robbery, and it is supposed that the trumps bad hoard that money was secreted in the house. Young Hosier said that the money was secreted outside of the house and that the murderer i did uot se cure it. Murder itnd Suicide. Sioux City, Ia., October 16.—James and John Johnson, brothers, lived mi a farm. They quarrelled and Janu s was ordered off. He returned during the night and shot John dead while he was asleep, James and an officer, while on the way to this city, met a wagon with u coffin for the dead man. J nines Berry, when told tlmt he would never see his brother again, replied, “Yes, l will. I will meet him in lc*U.” The wife of the mur dered mail stood by and saw the crime com mitted, agreeing that it was the proper thing to do. Murder In Alabama.
