that the accommodations in Atlanta are
inadequate, and that exorbitant charges
are being made TO visitors, have been
read with surprise and indignation by
50 the people Of this city. The statements
are so absurdly and extravagantly false
that they would attract no attention, but
for the fact that they are made in a rep

ton of its management. This alone has
induced the exposition people 10 send out
a definite denial
At its meeting this afternoon the ex-

imously adopted the following:
Whereas, the New York Herald mas
published. ostensibly from an Atlanta
CORRESPONDENT an article in which state

IL resolved that the following statement
of facts be given to the puDhc as true
and authentic.
Ii is stated by the Herald that the new
hotels are not completed, whereas they
are all done neatly and comfortably
furnished and are in successful opera
ton. IL is stated IN the Herald that the
rate alone of the best hotels, European
plan. is so a day for three people, where
as the rate at said hotel is only y 70 -
per day. and the HeTald's correspondent
was accommodated at 50 per day.
Ii is stated in the Herald that peoPls

modations on Decatur street, the boWety

in private houses in the best parts OF
the city can be had at IS cents TO Sl.OO

1t is stated in the Herald that the RAN
road facilities are inadequate, whereas IL
would be hard TO cite similar occasion
where the public was better or more

the new south really Is. Booker w ASH

sent a shock of surprise throughout the
north and west; but here is the great eX-

Of the spirit Of charity and helpfulness
on the part OF the highest class OF the
southern people to back him up.
Visitors from the north Will find in the
negro building one of their greatest sur
prises in coming to the exposition. 1t has
been left to the south to give the negroes
the assistance and ENCOURAGEMENT that
comes from recognizing the progress OF
the race in this negro building; just as
IL has been left to the Atlanta COnstita-
ton TO establish the first regular depart
ment in great newspaper. devoted to the
interests of the colOred people; these form
one Of the most interesting sociological
features OF the exposition.

and so classify them in his mind that
when he goes home he will have a COM

does not conclude that next to the Worlds
Fair this is the best thing of the kind
ever held in this country he must be
stepped in prejudice. The grounds are
unsurpassed, the buildings are most pic,-
