THE PULSE OF BUSINESS.

The business transacted at a postoffice
is pretty clear index of the thrift of a
community, in fact there is hardly a
better way of getting at the business
pulse than by noting the postoffice bust.
ness. AS the salaries of postmasters is
based upon the amount of business
done, the readjustment of their salaries
which has just been given out by the
department at Washington, furnishes a
clear index as to the improvement of
business over the state during the past
year. There are 100 presidential post
masters in the state, and at the offices
of seventy-fve of these there has been
an increase of business, while at only
two-Waterville and Morris-has there
been a decrease In this increase it is
gratifying to note that the Second dis
trict leads the rest of the state, it hav-
ing twenty offices which increased their
business. Being prosperous section
with numerous thriving go ahead towns
which give it more presidential post
masters than any other congressional
district in the United States, it keeps
apace with that record in it's march
toward greater prosperity. Of the rs
postofices where there is an advance in
postmaster's salaries, 65 are advanced
800, seven 5000, Amboy $500, South St.

Will you permit one who is highly in

ties thus far of the Belts investigation

columns?
HAS or has not Mr.. Belts secured
substantial evidence that the charges
against him originated in the late Con-

Waterbury?
2-Has or has he not secured substan-
tal evidence that the charges were
timed and intended to prejudice his re-
nomination as insurance commission
er?
3-Has or has he not secured substan-
tial evidence, including affidavits, that
Henry C. O'Sullivan, while publishing
and urging the charges, was receiving
pay from the Connecticut Life company
or one of its officers?
4-If Mr.. Belts had evidence of the
nature described why did he not pre-
sent it at last Thursdays hearing before
the judiciary committee?
Will the committee summon Mr.. Belts

evidence his detailed and circumstantial
I challenge the committee to

NO REDUCTION MADE YET.

Directors of the Gas Company Discuss
ed the ACCESSIBILITY Thereof Yester-
day.
At the close of meeting of the direc
tors of the New Haven Gas Light COM
pnny held yesterday afternoon Presi-
detn DeForest, when asked as to what
was done in regard to reducing the price
of illuminating gas, gave out the fol-
lowing typewriter statement: The
question of reducing the price of illu-
minating gas was considered, but no
final action was taken
THE matter ne said, twas discuss
ed informally by all the men present,
but further than that nothing was
done"
Asked if 81. 10 rate was spoken of in
preference to a 25-cent reduction, he an
swered: mo; no price was spoken Of,
and nothing beyond the mere advisable
ity of a reduction was discussed. We
can't and don't propose to be stamped
ed into taking action on this matter
1t demands careful consideration on our
part. The action of the Hartford and
New York companies in reducing their
prices influences us not the slightest
If we decide that we can consistently
give the public the same grade of gas
at reduced prices it shall be done
Nothing further as to the action TAX
en- could be learned. All the directors
were extremely reticent upon the sub
ject. The meeting was called at $3.50
o'clock and did not adjourn until near
ly o'clock.
1t was stated before the meeting that
some of the directors favored a reduc-
ton, but not as great one as was
spoken of. A reduction of fifteen cents,
making the price $1.10 per one thousand
feet, they thought advisable, but were
opposed to reduction of one-tifth of
the total charge.

THE NEW VICEROY OF INDIA AND
HIS AMERICAN WIFE.

The rising assembly saw a tall erect,
full chested man in a gray frock-coat on
which, alone shone the Star of India
Forty years, more than half of Them
filled with strenuous work toward high
ends, have printed their mark on q
broad lofty brow, have stamped it with
ref1ectiveness, but kept it's serenity.
The rest of the face might be owned by
a country lad of twenty-clean shaven,
smooth, rosy, as If its owner had never
had care, never lost nights sleep or
days enjoyment. Beside him walked
the incoming Vicereine, tall and stately
as a statue, light and graceful as a pic
ture, lissome and expressive as beau
tiful gracious woman. Under a hat
that dropped with lace and flowers ap-
peared prolific and bound black hair of
Grecian simplicity. When she turned
the mobile lines of the complete face
fired the classical beauty with the keen
and nervous vitality of the modern west.
But the mature freshness of the mans
aspect, the alert repose of the woman's,
were secondary to their perfect entrance
