In the other matters of dispute the members of ths oummiasion have dis played diplomacy that would ha v. done credit to aa American represen tative in foreign countries and like the row, necessarily the greatest diplomacy in toe aiaiory oi me oummieeiou was displayed yesterday, The trouble all started over tea dis position of the ll.uuo nriae mousy re ceived by UuUford county last fall, trbeu th judKea in tb Atlanta New York automobile tour unanimously decided that Guilford county had ths best road ia the south and along with tlw houor sent a check for 11,000.
