Than Reports Indicated.

London, Nov. 6.--King Georges ap.
petite is better. He passed the night
more comfortably than any since he
was hurt in France.
His condition generally is improved,

Allies Preparing TO Land Troops at
Dedaghatch.

Athens, Nov 6.-After the allies
naval guns have cleared Cedaghatch
and its environs of Bulgarian troops
II is believed French and British
forces will be landed there.
The feet is still bombarding the
port furiously, directed by aviators
who hover over the town signalling
the range. Experts do not think the
shelling would be SO persistent except
as preliminary to land operations.
The Bulgarians have been driven a
short distance into the interior, but
are said to be near enough to be
ready to resist landing.
The Sofa government has already
taken over the railway through South
ern Bulgaria and has forces of peas
ants throwing up intrenchments and
mounting guns on the Greek frontier.

Bulgaria from the south near Stru-

plan is to divert the Bulgarians from
their operations in Serbia by for
midable invasion of their own coun-
try.

 EXPRESS RATES
New Intrastatc Tariffs Re sulting in Average Cut of 30 Per Cent Will Take Effect August l. Many Points Affected

The new intra state express rates, which will result in an average reduc- tion of thirty per cent, will become ef- fective August l. Copies of the new tariffs were received yesterday by the corporation commission.
 Under the new rate schedule there will be an average reduction of twenty nine and one half per cent in first class rates, which apply 10 merchandise. Second class matter. which includes fruits. vegetables, meats and other food products will be reduced on the average of 3I9 per cent. It is estimated that fully seventy-five per cent of the total intrastate express business comes un- der the head of second class rates. The Few rates will affect practically every important point in the state.
 On the face of some of the new sec ond class rates there appear to be cer- tain advances, but these increases over existing rates are only apparent. Wherever the existing rates are lower than the new second class tariffs, the present rates will continue to apply. so that there will be no increase whatever in the rates of this class.

 These men are the proprietors of two pool rooms on the first floor of the Capitol hotel building and .he racket they make Mrs. Harper claims would disturb the dead. if they are rot too dead.
