An amended petition was received from William H. Council, a colored citizen of Ala. bama, who recently entered a sworn complaint against the Georgia Centrall Ratlroad Co., charg- ing that the company had discriminated against him because of his color. ‘The original complaint alleged that Counctl paid first-class fare, and when he undertook to ride in a first-class car he was forcibly ejected and treated with brutality. ‘The amended complaint 1s simply designed to bring the charge more fully under the termsof the law. WHAT COMMISSIONER BRAGG S4¥8. Commissioner Bragg, in speaking to a Sra re- Porter of this complaint, sald: “I know Council well, He is one of the brightest and best of our colored citizens, He sa staunch democrat, and canvasses the State at every election for the dem- ocratic ticket, He 1s not @ man who desires to push himself forward because of any ambition to Obtain social equaiity. He 1s modest and unas- suming. He isa gentleman, When I was presi- dent of the Alabama board of railroad commis- sioners I required the raflroads to furnish Drst-class accommodations for all passen- gers who paid. first-class fare, ‘There was a fearful kick against it, but I stuck to it and en- forced the order. They have no right to exact first-class fare from a colored man and then give him fourth-class accommodations, ‘The result of my order was that the railroads bad to furnish separate first-class cars for first-class colored pas- sengers. Why the representatives of these very railroad) companies came up here and en- deavored to persuade the dent not to appoint me upon this Commission because I had taken the stand in favor of what Iregarded as justice to the colored people. That was the only point they made against mie, but the President did not. seem Co aympathize with them kalnst any" Alabama railroad. "Telsmbaae gaicy inst any Alabama railroa ‘the Georgia Central.” ‘A WHITE CITIZEN'S COMPLAINT. Perhaps as a burlesque, or with the view of mak- ing Council's complaint ridiculous, a white citizen of Georgia has forwarded a charge that the Georgia Central refused to permit him to Paria the iat crow” car, Pernice ca ay for colored passengers e edmpiaint has not "yeu been. received. but the Commissioners have been advised that it is coming. In terms it follows the complaint ot Council, alleging that the complainant paia first-class fare, and therefore had a right to ride in any car, but when he sought to enter the col- ored car hé was prevented by the railroad em- Le ‘The white citizen complains that he was liscriminated against because of his color; that had he been a negro he could have traveled in the “Jim Crow” car.

Chief Engineer Loring introduced Commissioner Webb, who extended a cordialand hearty welcome to the members, at the same time paying an ap- preclative tribute to the advance made in mechan- cal science. He was warmly applauded. PRESIDENT BABCOCK PRAISES WASHINGTON. ‘The president of the convention, in response, Said that the American people were hardly aware of the beautiful metropolis which the Capital City had become. He sald that the ultra worship of foreign ideals prevented many from admiring any- thing unless they see the trade-mark upon it of some foreign country. He thought that the Capt- tok building was the most beautiful structure of the kind in the wot. He spoke of the splendid streets and avenues here, thelr cleanliness, the beautiful residences and ‘fine public, bulidings which he said were only equaled by the warm hospitality of the people. ‘THE BUSINESS OF THE SESSION was then begun, and the reading of reports of committees were called for, Mr. Henry R. Towne read the report of the committee on uniform tests and Mr. Geo. M, Bond the report on pipe-casing. ‘The secretary, Mr. F.. Hutton, presented the Teport Of the council, which stated that, through Mr, Stephen W.
