WILL MAINTAIN RATE.
Meeting of General Freight Agents
 Held in Louisville.

Louisville. Ky. April 23.--At a meeting of the general freight agents of all roads entering Louisville held here today il was decided to maintain the present ex- port rate on tobacco shipped from Louis vile.
 The meeting had been called to discuss the probable effect of the Elkins law on the export rate and also the action of u lines running to the Gulf in apparently cutting the rate. It was decided to main- tain the present tariff.
 The all-rail route to New York is to be the standard. The differential rate to New York and the rate to the Gulf is 2 cents lower. This is the tariff that pre- vailed heretofore. but the lines running from Louisville to the Gulf had. it is claimed. interpreted the tariff to mean that they were entitled to a rate 2 cents lower than the differential and therefore cents lower than the all-rail rate to New York. Under this interpretation it was claimed by the Northern roads that all of the export tobacco business was be- ing diverted to Gulf ports.

 At this the defendant a yellow boy who is janitor in down town law office, smiled.
 Wen he made after me-" the witness continued. T hit i'm wid ed ketchup bottle.'

 Neither Judge Arlington nor the plain tin needed the suggestion.

IMPROVING CAPITOL GROUNDS
Workmen Engaged in Beautifyine
 the Place.

Under the personal supervision of Gus, todian J. Kirk Jackson the capitol grounds are being systematically beautl- fled. MT. Jackson Is being assisted by a competent landscape gardener and the capital force of laborers.
 The work has been going steadily for ward since the Hobson masts were erect ed. A number of new flower beds have M been laid out and planted. The walks have been bordered with Towering plants and the grounds have been beautifed In many ways The full effects of the im- provements will not, however, be ooserVa- blc until later in the spring.
 The careless way in which visitors and citizens of Montgomery passing through the erounds walk down the grass has beeny a source of annoyance to the custodian of the capitol and the State House watchmen. It has seemed almost impossible to keep visitors oil the capitol lawns. In some place the. walks are ignored and paths have been made through the grass. Repeated warnings have 30 far had but little effect and 1t is intimated that unless the capital grounds arc more respected by careless visitors noIieenen will be called in to protect the freshness and verdancy of the capita lawns.
