Special to The Georgian
Montgomery', Ala., Nov. 26.—All eyas
are now turned toward the Louisville
and Nashville railroad since the legis
lature adjourned, as it Is'expected that’
road will go Into the Federal-court
at any time to enjolif the rate laws.
A conference has been going on here
between Milton Smith, president of
the Louisville and Nashville; H. L.
Stone, general counsel; Gregory L.
Smith, of Mobile; ' George \V. Jones
and Manly Foster, of Montgomery, all
attorneys for the company. What ac
tion will be taken by the road is not
known, but It Is known that every de
tail Is being gone ov*y and that almost
at .any moment some action may be
taken. The road has bitterly contested
•.!! the?? laws, but now that they are
.on the books what action will be taken
has not even been hinted at.
At this tljne It looks as if the legis
lature has the best of the road and
that it will become necessary for it to
go through the channels named In the
bills before going to court. The penalty
bills are the ones which the road can
hardly get around. *The Federal court
will no doubt be called upon to take
some action.* The governor is not In
the city today, but Is expected back
tonight or tomorrow. He has approved
all the railroad rate regulation bills
and after the legislature was over he
went home to take a much needed rest.

THE REMODELED GOVERNOR'S MANSION. .
Under Governor Hoke Smith’a f regime, the executive mansion has
been rehabilitated and presents a new appearance.
Wonderful Changes in the Executive Home
Have. Been Wrought Since Governor
Smith Moved There.
Georgia's executive mansion la a rehabili
tated pince.
Unless one knew accurately Its location at
the corner of Peachtree and Cain strata. It
would not be recognized now In Its spick
and span appearance.
When Governor Smith moved into the
mnnslon last June he found ft, ns hnd his
predecessor. Governor Terrell, very much
run down and in need of repairs. For some
years patchwork repairs have constituted
the work on the building—really makeshifts
for the time, because the Impression pre
vailed that the stnter would have soon to
abandon It ns the official residence of its
chief executive.
But Governor Smith hnd n capable archi
tect make a thorough examination of it
from top to Irnttom. Though the building
was erected over forty years ago, nnd has
l»eeti occupied as the governors mansion
more than n quarter of n century, the archi
tect pronounced the brick walls solid as
With certain repairs, the mansion could
he innite us good and romfortnble as a new
one. So Governor Smith set carpenters,
painters nnd cleaners to work.
The small and Inadequate portico was torn
nwny. and a broad,, handsome verandah put
in Its place. The dull-red, weather-worn.
unkemnt-lo4>klng brick exterior has been
painted a nretty gray, the woodwork white.
The finishing touches are being nut on now,
nnil the mansion, with its broad, well-kept
Is now 4>uc of the handsomest homes
in Peachtree street.
Inside the building the same wonderful
changes have been wrought. Though the
state furnishes the mansion, Governor
•ernor .Smith also
graded and qindo Into a handsome tennis
court. It is within the plans to have many
beautiful flowers glace the grounds to the
executive juanslou next sprlug.

S 'Itev 5 Kd Cook Is expected here this

C'olumbla, S. C„ Nov. 25.—Senator
Tillman, while discussing the Hnanclal
situation and the Roosevelt-i’ortelyou
measures for the relief of the tension
by the Insurance of 260.0100,000 In Pana
ma bends and 2100,000,000 In "certlfl-
cates of lndebtnesa,” said;
“The Panama loaue le alright. That
money's going to be used In digging
the ditch. But the other Is all wrong.
It Is an extension of the public debt
In time of peace. The section author
ising the-tssurance of these securities
was enacted at the time of the Spanish- I
American war and it was never con-1
templated by Congress that these cer-1
tlllcates should be Issued In time of
peace to relieve an emergency merely.
All this talk about a panic makes me
tired. There Is no ‘situation’ except
on Wall street."
Senator Tillman thinks Roosevelt
will run again. If he feels sure of get'
ting the nomination, but the senator
does not think that either Roosevelt
or Bryan stand a chance of nomina
tion again. “The 'great rested Inter
ests’ hate them equally.-” he said, “and
will have none or either. They want
a man they can 'run/ Cortelyou Is
their choice."
"And you think they can ’run’ Cortel
you. Senator?" he woe asked.
"Huh, ain't you been reading the pa
pers. Look at his unties on Wall
