ritory is confined to practically one-
 half what it served before. To make
 the matter still worse on bread com.
 panies, they cannot get cheap rate on
 the return of the crates, barrels or
 boxes used for shipping bread and have to either pay the same freight
 on the empty cases as if it were that
 many pounds of bread. The same rule
 applies to the several laundries in
 Nashville that have heretofore been do- Ing good business in Kentucky Ala
 bama, Georgia and elsewhere. Nash
 ville also has several large ice cream concerns that are suffering in the same
 way. Perhaps the most important item of trade affected is that of poultry shipping from the small way-stations. where the volume of business Is not sufiicient to enable the shippers to use the freight trains. At most of the small stations along the roads the mer- chants buy poultry and ship 1t to Nash viile in crates by express, getting their crates back at q nominal cost Chick
 ems have been put on the pound basis without their value or the conditions of the business being considered.
 There are of course numerous in- stances where some one profits by ths order of things For instance. the laundry in Columbia will have an al- most clear field and the bakeries there
 will largely supply their own citizens. The wholesale ice cream houses of
 Nashville must leave the small country
 dealer alone in his field or lose money on the transaction. In some eases the new rates give a decided advantage
 For instance, to points less than fifty
 miles distance the rates have been re-
 duced by the adoption of the pound rule Over fifty miles, however, the rates on bread, laundry and ice cream so almost to the prohibitive point
 Those who have given the matter I careful study think that the Interstate Commerce Commission will give new ruling on the express matter soon, how ever, as a general complaint has gone up from all parts of the country. It is claimed that the express companies | have been discrimlnated against since the Commission allows the railroads to carry freight at rates based on con- ditions of business and the value or class of the article shipped For m stance, q car load of coal may be han l aled for much less than a car of dry
 goods, and pig iron carries a much less 1 rate than perishable goods. M If the new ruling of the Commission | as to express stands 1t will destroy the old basis of rates, which has always
 been what the commodity can stand
 It is believed by those who are most
 affected in Nashville that the Commits sion will relieve the situation when the matter Is properly placed before It. wul Affect theatrical Companies.

Unless the Interstate Commerce' Com mission alters it's ruling regarding the application of the new rate law to the express companies many lines of busi- ness will be very materially affected and certain industries badly crippled. According to the understanding the ex- press companies have of the ruling of the Commission, one may ship 100 pounds of diamonds or gold at the same rate charged for that many pounds of iron, grain or anything else. The ad valorem rates seem to have been en- tirely cut out and all express business ls to be done entirely on a weight basis without regard to the value of the ar ticle or the care necessary to handle it, says The Nashville American.
 The new ruling is falling hard on the business of large bakeries, laun- dries, live poultry shippers and many others who have heretofore been given Q rate commensurate with the value of the article shipped and that taking into consideration the conditions of the trade. One of the largest bread com panies in the South is located at Nash viIle and under the old rule shipped bread to nearly all the Southern States.

was enlivened this morning by the
entry of a cavalcade of horsemen
armed with winchesters and pistols.
Excitement subsidized when it became
known that the party consisted of
Jake, Jerry and Green Noble with
their armed bodyguard, twenty
strong. who came to surrender up
on the charge of killing Deputy Sher-
i'll Grant Holiday about three weeks
ago.
The MOBILES have been hiding since
the murder. claiming that they were
not willing to be arrested until the
new county officials were indicted in
to office. The new County Judge
and associates assumed theireins to-
day. They had scarcely entered up
on the discharge of their duties wher
the Mobiles arrived and surrendered
to the new Republican Jailer, who is
the first Republican who has held
that Office innany years.

SPANISH TREASURE.
Party of Mexicans Said TO Have
Made a Big Find In a
Cave at Pond Run.

McHenry, KY, Jan. 3.-Eight
well-dressed Mexicans arrived near
Poud Run, about seven miles west of
here, Friday. and pitched a tent.
They spent some time prospecting
and finally located a small cave just
at the foot of a high hill, about
three miles from Green River. They
began digging in the cave and struck
an iron box which when opened, re-
vealed large quantity of Spanish
coin.
The coin was counted and divided
on the spot in the presence of sever
al reputables citizens of the neigh
borhood. The latter say that the
find amounted to large sum.
1t is asserted that the money was
buried by Mexican war paymast-
er.

jim HOWARD LOSES
Supreme Court Sustain LifeS Sen
tence in the Penitentiary---
Howard Cheerful.

Washington, ID. c.. Jan. 2.-The
supreme court of the United States
today sustained the Kentucky courts
including the Franklin circuit court
and the court of appeals, in the case
of James B. Howard against the
state of Kentucky. Howard is now
under sentence of confinement in
the penitentiary for life for killing
William Goebel at Frankfort on JAN
uary 80, 1900.
Howard appealed because one
juror was said to have conversed
with a person not a member of the
jury about the case after he was
sworn. The appeal is not sustained
and Howard loses his last hope of
escaping his sentence of life impri-
sonment.
In an interview after learning the
action of the Supreme Court Howard
said slowly and deliberately with no
trace of emotion.
II hardly expected a decision
from the Supreme Court as early as
this" eff it be true that my last
resort has failed me, can only say
that ! am victim of circumstances
and that | am entirely innocent of
any completely in the assassination

gallent fight and have lost.

public. | shall be guided by the
advice of my counsel as to what ]
shall say. but if he will allow me to
do so | shall make public few affid-
avits that will produce sensation

icult matters which will come before

construction and he is now asking
the new court to allow for the bal
ance of the work. A poor-house
keeper. almshouse, physician and
county treasurer have been elected.
Mr.. C. R. Stevens for poor-house
keeper. DIR. A. F. Stanley for physi-
clan and Mr.. John T. Moore for

was killed by the locomotive before
he dropped into the river, as wit

never rose to the surface. Mr.
Kirby's body has not at this writing
been recovered. The train was de
rallied on the bridge, and the engi
neer, against whom a charge Of
criminal negligence has been lodged
escaped to parts unknown. A lad,
who witnessed the horrible accident
says the engineer was asleep. The
train crew had been running over
time, on account of recent floods in
