Obear, Inspector general of state troops, some ten or twelve have been put on probation for failure to meet various requirements, and some seven or eight others have been recommended for disbandonment. two of which have already gone out of the state service, while the others are under con sideration. Faulty administration is said to have been responsible in a measure for these conditions, and failure of officers to give their men proper instructions is as- signed as another cause.
 This is viewed as a pretty bad record and yet many think th- strictness of the requirements ths year has had great deal to do with it. There are certain things which are naturally and rightly criticism is alleged to be unduly severe criticism is of the alleged undue severity when the state fails in great measure to do it's whole duty In enabling the various commands to reach always the standard which is set for them.

CORRIDOR TALK OF
 THE ALABAMA CAPITOL
BY HERvEY w. LAIRD.

IA n ONTGoMERY, March 19.-(Spe- M cial.)-Before turning the office of chief executive of the state over to Governor Jelks yesterday, Lieu tenant Governor R, M. Cunningham, who had been acting governor for eleven months, cleaned up everything in the way of business that was not pending and left the returning incumbent a fresh and fair field to begin on. Of the matters pend- ing however. there are some of great interest to the state, which bear with particular emphasis on the way things will be carried out along certain lines in the future. Among these are the capi- tol improvement, the issue of something over eight millions of refunding bonds, the effort to collect large sums of money from certain financial concerns which have filed deeds of trust and have not paid the taxes, and a number of land disputes.
 The bond issue mas proceeded no fur ther than the advertisement for bids, the time for which will expire April 4. Suit has been brought against the Continen- tai Trust company Of Baltimore to re- cover s112,5O claimed as fees for record ing mortgage of $75,OOO.OOO given by the Seaboard Air Line railway, and a suit with the same line of contentious where the sum of 5000 is claimed, is pending against the Manhattan Trust company of New York. The first liti- gation carries with it some possibilities or compromise, no doubt from the fact that while the last mortgage Is for s75,- 00000O as matter of fact the new part of 1t is only $65,O00000, giving only $10,0O0,- 900 of actual new record if the case is re- dUced to its last analysis. The law, how ever was made largely to reach this class of lenders, and 1t is not at all unlikely that the whole amount will be fought for to the end, though one hears that one or two state officials have talked favorably of discussing compromise
 
 The matter of improving the state cap itol is in a waiting attitude Some weeks ago a proposition was submitted to the commission to stop litigation begun by several of the owners of lands condemned for use of the state on the south side of the capitol block. but so far nothing amounting to a definite agreement has been reached. The condemnation jury decided that the lands needed, 400 feet two ways and 800 feet one way. were worth s49.6O0. but most of the owners refused to agree to the verdict and took the matter to the courts. There they may fight for long period of time, though if the state elected It might give bond for good faith in the decisions that might be reached in the end and go ahead with the work. but it was thought best to get all this out of the way be- fore work was inaugurated, The proposi-
