authorities. asking them 10 communicate

not yet heard from them.
The Governor has decided, however,
to leave here with his staff on Monday

his party will be joined by the cadet
Battalion. Of the Virginia Military IN
stitute. which will act as escort during
his stay at the Exposition. quite
number of prominent citizens
of Richmond. and from other sec
| tons Of the state, will go to Atlanta on
| the same train with the Governor.
Governor O'Ferrall has also given per-
| mission 10 the Fourth Regiment, of
Norfolk. and Battery G, of Portsmouth,
TO go to Atlanta. and they are expected
TO arrive at the same time as the
gubernatoriaI party. good deal has
been said and written ia regard TO the
Richmond military and it has recently
been stated that none Of the military or
ganizatiOns of this city would he able 10
visit the Atlanta Exposition. An ener-
getic effort is. however being made al
this time to induce the Blues Battalion
to undertake the trip.
1t is a well-knoWn fact that good
many members are very anxious 10 20,
while others would be willing TO do so I'm
order that their command might make
a good showing and 1t has been suggest
| ed in case 1t should not be advisable TO
| have the entire battalion 80, that Joint
company be formed out Of those who are
willing to visit the Exposition.
1t is also understood that Governor
| OFerrall would be very glad 10 see the
| Richmond military represented by the
Blues The expense Of the trip would be
rather moderate and 1t IS thought that
| there would be no difficulty TO raise the
| necessary money.

state Library, which VIII be "a by the
Secretary oil the Commonwealth as Il
stock-ioom.
Al present his wOTkmen are engaged In
Transforming the I'D library room into
i've committee-fOoms. The original idea
was 10 establish only four committee
rooms, but inasmuch as the south side Of
the building has five windows, it was
deemed best to cut down the size Of the
proposed rooms and create an additional
cOmmittce-rOom. The lower one OF the
two galleries which encircled the room
has been removed, with the exception Of
"a small part Of the northwest corner
which contains the staircase leading TO
the upper gallery. The latter has been
thoroughly braced by iron rods, and is
also supported by The ceiling OF the COM
mittce-rooms. 1t will be used FOR the
storage Of the books that could not be
PROVIDED for in the lev Library build
ing.
on the north side OF the Library-room
a good-sized corridor has been cut of,
covering the entire length east to west.
and from it the different committee
rooms will be entered. Substantial par
tilcns have been put up. and the entire
work makes a very solid appearance.
1nasmuch as provision viii be made In
The basement of the building for the ac-
commodation of the Southern Historical
Society, the room between the Cover
nor's office and that OF the Secretary Of
the Commonwealth has been cleaned out.
and yesterday afternoon MIR. Carter's
men were engaged In cutting a door into
the wall between that room and the
antc-room Of the Governors Office. The
additional room viii hereafter serve as
the Office Of the Governors private sec
rotary.
As soon as all the Improvements on the
upper floor have been completed, Mr.
Carter will take his force into the base
ment, where. among other alterations. he
Will make three additional committee
rooms out OF the former office OF the
Auditor Of Public Accounts.
