Rule Will Stand.

Atlanta, December 25.-(Special.) )-The state railroad commission has declined to interfere with its present rules regarding the collection of cash fares on trains. Application was made to the commission for a change in the rules under which the railroads would be allowed to collect only nominal sum. say 25 cents, where a passenger fails to purchase ticket. The present rule is that where a pas senger has opportunity to purchase a ticket and fails to do so. the railroad may in its discretion collect 1 cent a mile additional, but if there is no ticket office where a passenger gets on train such additional charge cannot be made. It is this rule with which, after full hearing. the railroad commission has declined to interfere.

 "A further critical examination of the affairs of the State National bank by the New Orleans Clearing House com mttee, assisted by Mir. Silas H. l..

No attempt was made to bring out the large number of bodies found in entry No. H among great heaps of debris, but the men worked beyond to entries Nos. B and 20. A few more hours of work, it Is be- lieved, will result in the uncovering or all in these three workings, and the finding of a majority of the bodies still missing. Up to tonight total of 76 bodies had been brought out. In defer ence to the day no funerals were held. Many will be buried tomorrow.
