If tho square north of the Stutehoiise was built up in the same manner, or to the same extent as the square Just to the south, the Capitol Itself would occupy a pent up and uncomfortably small space.

No other business was transacted the time of the court lteing taken up with tho arguments in the above case, by ex- Governor AVatls and District Attorney Smith.

Several civil suits are set for to-day, mian Clara Morrla. Miss Clara Morris appears at the Montgomery Theatro Monday evening next in "Article 47."

Wi ri'a Position. The Adveutiskii, In Its notice on yesterday of tho proceeding before the House committee on temperance, ill, not mean to Intimate that Mr. Wiley was opposed to the cause of temperance. Upon tho contrary, he slated to the ooniuiiMoc that personally he was in tin ly indifferent that his position was one of neutrality. He wanted toiiseer- taiu tho wishes of a majority of the white voters if Montgomery county, and then vote accordingly.

He said appeared by request before tho'commit- toe to present petitions signed by nbou nlae hundred. white votors, residing outside thectty limits, against the bill that thes? petitions had lieen sent to him as a member from Montgomery county, the signers thereof wero his coristitu ents, and it was his duty to place these petitions in the hands of the commit tee. Mr. Wiley's only endeavor was to secure to those who had asked him to present the petitions, a fair showing. I'ollce Itema.

The police force was increased by the addition of four excellent men yester day, a dmideratiim whleh has long been felt, and, even now, the force is not large enough, when the rapid grow th of the city is considered. The police regulations at the raco track are superb anil everything there is as orderly as a spring picnic. There were only two arrests for drunkenness yesterday and last night, tho Saturday night boys probably sobering up for the usual performance at the last of the eek. The iilice were notified last night that Nat Lewis, colored, had seriously shot another negro, named Hichard Weathinglon, at Peacock Tract, near llamner Hall. Search Is being mad by the mounted police, for Lewis.

Charley Johnson, omnibus driver, for running into a soda water wagon, and smashing up both, will answer for care less driving this morning. Mr. J. H.Jackson, cotton buyer, tired of the insolence of John Mitchell, col ored, when a fight ensued, and both were arrested. inere were inree arrests or negro women, and two of negro men, for dis orderly conduct.

i. A white man appealed to headquar ters last night for protection against being everlastingly "shadowed" by two certain policemen; ho says they have dogged his steps two nights and whole day, that ho lives in Columbus, ami mat inure is Homing "suspi cious aliout turn. Mr. Hrene aa Hamlet. At the Montgomery Theatre last night, Mr.

Keene's ITamlet so more than tilled the highest expectations of his audience, that it would be difficult to give adequate expression to the gen uine pleasure with which they watched his unfolding of the most wonderful of all Shakespeare's characters. Mont gomery audiences who have seen him so often have not believed his peculiar powersl.esl titled to the portrayal of character so purely intellectual as that of Hamlet, but this impression was re moved before the close of the first act and Mr. Keene's hold on his hearors grew closer until the curtain rang down. There was an utter absence of any approach to ranting and his man nerisms have disappeared. Ills con ception of thecharacteris complete and symmetrical, and he comes as near to carrying out that conception as the most exacting audience could desire.

It is needless to carp at Mr. Keene from critical standpoint because his merits so far overtop his faults that flaw pick ing is out of place. To sum it up, the performance last night was great. Miss Leltin Allen made a charming Ophelia and tho support was in the main excellent. Mr.

Keene won golden opinions and Montgomery will be glad to see him and his company again in the same play. The programme last niirht announced the appearance of Miss Clara Morris at toe Montgomery Theatre next Mon day evening in "Article 47." At McDonald's Onera House tho rtv nowued llartzinan Combination of Illusionists, Ventriloquists and Mesmerists, open to-nleht. and in addition to tne performance of two hours, useful and costly presents will be given to every one attending.

Our experience has taught ui that no nxed rules can ue maue wnicn win all times determine Justly, rates frelirht between any two points.

This Is especially true of inter-state commerce. The laws of competition and of trade alone Influence and control the adjust ment of rates. The past has clearly demonstrated that the tnanairurs of railroads recog nize these inlliiences, and all localities are orlveu the benefit of them. In Alulmma iWDGciallV. do we recoR- nine the areat benefits to be derived from railroads.

In order that all the industries whether in Iron, coal, nianu fHctnrlnir. lumber, lime, vegelahlex, mercantile, cotton or other agricultural products may lie luiiy ueyeiopeu, wt think it demonstrated that our beat in terests lie in leaving the transporta tion linos of the State free to act. witn nut heino- subject to the controlling In fluence of lixed laws, which In the na ture of thlugs, cannot foresee necessi ties which must ariso rroin time time, owing to the various and peculi; entiiliUons at different periods. to Wo believe it Is lietter to let thfl matter of rates of freight rest entirely in the inds of transportation lines, especially so until such time as tho general irovernment may see fit through Its Congress to attempt some advisory control over the same. We therefore respectfully urge upon voiir Honorable body not to enact any law which will Interfere with tho freti-dom of commerce, and to ask that )ou use every effort to prevent the passage of (lending or similar tuns.
