Annual Klection lor Directors of the Pitts-
burgh, Port Wayne a'l Chicago Railroad
Company.
At ton o’clock i n Wednesday morning, pur
suant to published ch:l, the stockholders in
the PiiUburgb, Fort \Vnyn»' and Chicago
Kni’.road Co. met at tin* Hoard of Trade
Rooms for Lho purpose of electing a Hoard of
Dilectors.
A meeting •was organized by calling Geo.
Hutchinson, E<q., ol Allegheny, to the chair.
Judge Harms, of Fort Wayne, made some
remarks explanatory of the condition of the
road, and in favor ot the plan foi*re organiza
tion, after the accomplishment of which he
hoped for brighter prospects for all concerned.
Kent Jarvis, E-q., of Massillon, O , said the
road was now boyond the control ot the stock
holders, and it was useless to consume time by
this meeting. which had not been called He
was a stock-odder, but expected nothing lur
three years, as he believed the company should
pay their debts before they declared dividends.
Jttr. BaMentinu, of Tcmperanceville, in
dulged in a long tirade ’ against the manage
ment, evidently basod upon the refusal of the
President to give b’.rmelf (a stock holder) and
bis son a pass to Chicago. He clos:d by ( ffer
ing a resolution to adjourn until nine o'clock
Thursday morning and thus give stockholders
an opportunity of forming a new ticket, as
Ihey bad grown heartily tired ol the manage
ment of the {'resent Board of Directors.
Zidok Street, V. q , ol Sa’ern, O , said the
Board had discharge tlmir duties most faith-
fully and labored h»rd lor the interests of the
road. They bad hoped by this time to have
perfected the re organ./.aiior, on the plan pub
lished and circulated among trie stockholders,
but they had been as yet unable to Secure ail
the legislation necessary, as the .-uhj'Kit was
still pending m the Ohio leg's-iaturo. The term
of office of the if re elected, would not
exceed a tew months, by the end of which time
the object named could be effected, and then,
if deair&ble, a change could be made, 'foe
stockholders, he said, had nothing to tear
from the bond-holders, men of l onor, in
<vhoso bands the interests of the road are safe.
Geo. W. Cass, Eiq , slated that the meeting
•bad b**ra called in pursuance of the act of in
•corporation and by-laws, to elect a Board of
v Directors to-day, and for noth.ng else. The
election was held simply to preserve tbo fran-
chise of the company, as, the road being in
the hands of a Receiver, the Directors bad no
control, except by courtesy. A mooting ot
stockholders is inoperative. Any twenty or
more, on the str» et, or at any point on the road,
might organize a meeting and the action
would havejust as much Dgal effect, and a
resolution to postpone would amount to noth
ing, as a single vote fur Directors to-day would
elect the'parties to whom it is gt\»*r. The
necessary legislation f»r a ro.r rganizsium has
cot been soured, though it is expected that the
bill (which baa already passed the Pennsylva
nia aDd indffna .Legislature*) will become a
law in Ohio the coining week; when this t»
done a meeting of the stockholders will be
called and everything connected with the road
laid before t-hern. Hoarding the annual re
port, he had been unable to complete it, but it
and areporL f iheoperations of the read, which
the courtesy of the K'-oeiv.r bad furnished,
was in the hands of the printer, and would be
ready in a short time. He did not recognize this
meeting, would not vote or take any action,
and gave this inform&tiuu as a matter of cour
tesy, as ho would to an\ stockholder in pri
vate conversation in his e or on the street
jji*. Ball online insisted on his motion, saying
he believed tbo stockholders had the power to
iflx anytime they chose lor holding the election
Casa again »*.d that the action of stock
holders would be noli ard void, as tbe road was
in the bands of a Receiver, »,bd they had no
control oveirt whatever. In answer to a ques
tion asked him be would say that be had
drawn no salary as President since the appoint
ment of the Receiver and they might vuih Lira
out as soon *s they desired. It would not
affect him, as he merely drew a salary as Super
intendent.
Mr. Hutchinson then made a speech reflect
ing severely upon the management, who had
not only eunk $6,500,001) of the]stockholder?,
money, but even failed to pay the women for
scrubbing out the cam, and these Directors
want ua to re-elect them, after robbing the
road; one he knew took sJs,ouo and went
sway. He was in favor of an Inlire change
Mr. Casa, after referrirg to the fact that the
road cost $18,000,000. of wh.ch only $4,00(1,-
000, waa contributed by the stockholders, who
talk as though they own the whole property,
denied that he bad ever said, as stated by Mr.
Hutchinson, that the road would pay a divi
dend in 1801. He Lad said that if the road
was disembarrassed it would pay interest and
dividends, and ho pull believed so. Hut the
road was struggling under a debt of $l s
000, and being indebted U» ii>«dt for iiself, ha?
to pay for itself. Tber* had been mistakes in
building the road, lut, all things considered,
it had not cost an extravagant sum ; it is a
good road and if let alone will pay its debts
and profits afterward. Here a stockholder
asked if it waa true that tbo working expenses
of the road were 73 per cent, on its revenue.
Mr. Goss replied that the expense* wore over
70 per cent, owing to the condition of the
road and tbo necessity of getling money and
materials wherever they could be had. It the
road were free from debt it could bo operated
for sixty per cent of its revenue.
A motion was now made to adjourn the
stockholders’ meeting and proceed with the
election, which was carried.
The election resulted in the re-election of the
old Board of Directors. Tbo vote stood as
follows:
Pennsylvania—G \V. Cass, 56,537 ; Wm.
Robinson, Jr., 53 ob‘J: Springer liarbaugb,
66,510; Thos. A. Scott, 66,510.

In the bands of ihe Board o( ttesltn says a
Philadelphia paper, is sumo two P er

thinks that stiff more adequate provision 13 de*
manded before a perfect report of the state of

The members of the Board of Health think
that there should bo a compulsory system, un
der legal enactment, imposing a penalty for
disobedience to its provisions, requiring every
child born or brouvi" into the city to be vac

Important Railroad De< imon —A de
cision hi! cling the responsibility for acci Prats
ut railroad companies to passenger?, has just
beer. d.-t id.nl by the Supremo Court of Kings
county, New \ ork. The ?uil was brought by
T. T Edgcrton against th“ New York and
Harlem road, to recover s2(>,(>oo for injuries
alleged to have been sustained by him through
negligence. The facts, as rep rUsi, were as
follow- :
On ih- 1 'JmI) of February, 1 the caboose*
car of the defendants, wherein plaintiff was a
paso-nger, while approaebi: g Chatham Four
Corner-, at a sDw rate of .-peed, was thrown
from th-* track against a baggago car standing
on an adjacent turn out. whereby the bod}' of
the cab.-oso was twi>:*-d ronijileUdv in two.
and the piainliff severely ir lured in his letl
k n ee.
The ra>o was fir?t tried at a circuit torm,
belure Judge Lott, in March, Tbe sauso
of the accident not appearing from the evi
dence on either side, tbe defendant moved for
and obtained a non-suit, on the grt wr.d that no
negligence had been shown, Mr. Jenks, counsel
for plaintiff, opposing tbe motion, on the
ground that the fact of the car running off was
prim a facxz evidence of negligence: that a
well constructed car, p. nperiy conducted, on
a well-built and well-superintended track,
could not run off; and that the defendant, in
rebuttal, was bound not only LCpmnt out tbo
precise cause of the accident, but also to prove
that it was on<> which human caro and skill
could not provide against.
The plaintiff appealed, and a new lr;ai whs
ordered. The evidence in this did notdifftjr
materially from that former occasion.
After an absence of several hour?, the jury
brought in a verdict for the plaintiff.>f S4.SUD,
and tne court granted an allowance of $-DU.

Virginia Convention
Washington, March -7 —The Senate met
at 11 o’clock this morning. The chair laid be
f«»reihe Senate the following meesago from
llic Prefident: To the Senate of the United
Stales : 1 have received a copy of a resolution
of the Senate pafaed on the doth re
questing me, if in my opinion not incompati
ble with the public interest, to communicate
’olheS.-nate the dispatches of Major It hurt
A nd#*r»on, to ihe ar D j par linen t, during the
frae he has been in command at Fort Sqinter.
<>n examination of the correspondence thus
i-(tiled for, 1 have, with the highest regard for
the Senate, come to the conclusion that, at the
prehent moment, the publ cation of it Would
bn inexpedient.
Mr. Breckinridge, of Kentucky, moved to
take up the resolution introduced bv him yes
terday, advising the withdrawal of the fedora!
:roops from the seceded States, ho did not in
le'ul making any ; nrnarks, as he bad already
(xprwsed his views on that subject. He do
-ired the vote on this motion to be regarded as
n tp»t ij'ifbtion.
Mr. Fessenden, of Maine, supposed thore
would be no objection to that, but he rerai tided
the >*nator that no quorum was present.
Un motion of Mr. Hale, of New Hampshire,
the Senate went into Executive session.
Wh*-n the doors were opened Mr. Breckir
ridge. (.f Kentucky, again moved to take up
his n solution, saying that if tbe tuonoo should
t.oi prevail, hn w(»uld accept Mr. (Jlingraaoa
substitute, whu b also advises the President to
; irhear irom attempting to collect the reve
ri
in the o>nf- liiTHt" Staler as well aft to
withdraw ILO l'«Mit*rut troops therefrom. If
'.! *.« Senate wore not willing to express an
.'j.nnon. he took it f>r granted that the vote
wmi d ho a*:-in*l takii.g up tbo resolution, but
if U."V ! n tended to express an opiniun, betook
♦t i• >r urtiuu 1 that ’ho vote would be in the af
in-malm*. llt*nco he had tuked for the ayes
fti.d uh}B, and that tie wle on taking, up the
reft-duiion might be omsidrtd as a test ques
tion.
Mr. Kice, of Mmn , was in favor of the res
olution, but be thought that Mr.
au'endrncnt which Mr said h-*
would an ept went too lar He did not know
wiihl npht th«* Senate had to express then
• -pinion to the President as t<> the collection of
the revenue.
Mr. Wade, of t»hiu ho; od the resolution
would be taken up m order to have a square
v ile upon it.
Mr K.nngnian wishc-d tm substitute adopt
e.|, bocau-n be believed that the Preddont un*
the exuding Ikwh has no power to collect
the revenue m the conleder&to States. Hence
he should abstain from the attempt entertain-
ng this opinion, he was ready to express it.
H i wish'd to avoid a eoahli-'n
Mr Kico naked Mr. iWeksnrigo wbothor his
resolution extended lo Key West and Torlu
chs !-bonl« If t*>. ho Wiui d nover consent lo

Mr Kreckinr.dge rejdid that the resolution
•tdvieui* under tho *»xis sng circumstances, the
withdrawal <•( the Federal troops from the
i.-tuKs "f the confederate tftatea. He suppos'd
ihat tlo* re,-Muiion embraced those poinu be

an interest iu them, and especially tbo com
merce Iwumgirg t<» the North, which will
10-vcr \ leid those point*. 11 a would not give
llii-m up under any cir, umataiK e 3.
Mr Clark**, of N. 11.. hoped the resolution
would not b • taken up.
Mr. Djugias said Le would vote to take up
the resolution with Iho vh w ol offering an
amendment, to bring it within the scone it
ought to lake lie tnoughl that it Would bo
w;mj f r the President to wilhuraw tbo troops
from Fori IV kens, as bo understood they will
be or have boon withdrawn from Fort Sumter.
These were tbo oniy forts in
Stales not occupied by tbo Government at
Montgomery. These were the only places
which could tend to a collision. Hut the reso
lution goes further, it advises the president to
withdraw the troops fr.<m ail points in the
Confederacy. The Confederate States being a
revolutionary Government can claim only
what they occupy, lie war willing under ex
idling circumstances that Sumt«r and Pickens
should bo given up They woro sources of
constant irritation.
Mr. Doolittle, of Wisconsin, said if a dobate
opened on this question it would last for throe
days at l*a?L Hu w&a against taking up the
resolution but hia vote must not be regarded
as a test vote.
Mr. Wade hoped iho resolution would be
taken up and as there was but very little else
to do, they should have a discussiou. Ho did
not know what the Administrations policy
might be, but he entertained very strong
opinions and was very anxious to express them
Ho did not hesitate to say thal the Senate might
under the present circumstances express their
opinions. We are a co-ordinate branch of the
government and the President's advisers, and
in his judgment, it is bul just and proper in
the present emergency that we should express
our opinions in full, not only to the President,
but to the people of iho United States. Hu
had no concealments to make, lie was very
anxious that this subject should receive full
and fair dsscussion.
The Senate voted l l * to 1U un Mr. Brookins
rid'-’s motion, .-bowing the absence of a quo
rum.
Mr. Breckinridgo moved to adjourn .sine
>io- which was not agreed to. Much incidental
debating ensued. Finally the Senate adjourned
till to-morrow.
KIi'BMOND, March 20—in the Convention
this evening, Mr. Hall, of WeUoll, offered the
Constitution of the Confederate Slates os a
substitute for the Federal Committee's report,
Mr Wise called for the reading of it. Mr.
Clemens intimated that the purpose for such a
call -\yas to dUay a vole on the report. Mr.
Wise denied such an imputation as unfounded.
The substitute, being tho Con
s itutiou of Iho Southern Confederacy, was
then road and debated till a late hour. The
Convention is still, at 11 o’clock, in sessiou.
There is much confusion and excitement.
