This Questio nhas been asked by ev-
cry person interested in archaeology
anl having knowledge of the discov.
cry. The fact of greatest Importance
upon which hinges all speculation an
conclusion is this At the rear of the
cave was a frissure from which drip
pea a slight amount of water. and
from this water stalagmitcs. stalac.
tites and pilasters we're formed above
and on ashes which undoubtedly had
been deposited on the floor OF ,hs
cave before the formation oil ths
stalagmites In this foundation Of
ashes were bones, but not positively
identified as human bones. u they
should be proven. however, to be hu-
man bones, wha. is their age? Prot
Gould said that rainy season pre-
vailed at the time of his visit bu
the gripping from the fissure was
manute in quantity, and the cave
practically dry He thought that the
stalagmites certainly were several
hundred and possibly several thous-
and, years old but would not risk
a specific guess as to their age II
ths stalagmites grew in several hum
dred years the prehistoric theory
would fall to the ground; If several
thousand years were consumed in
their formation, and the underlying
bones found to be human, then the
archaeologist would be justified in
assuming that the cave at Pineville is
a rare opportunA.y for scientific inyes-
tigation.

It is said that the pruning Of eX-
penditures will be in a large measure
dictated by the state Of the public
finances. There is reason to expect a
decrease Of receipts for the next fiscal
year There is also occasion TO fear
a falling off in exports which would
reflect upon trade coditions. The
administration, It is said, desires TO
preserve the equilibrium between re-
ceipts and expenditures that no
startling deficit might be used TO un-
settle financial conditions in this
country by interests that would for
speculative purposes be glad to take
advantage of such an excuse.
It is explained that the chief desire
of the administration, with respect TO

Monument and Other Places Decorat-

A quantity of garlands and evergreens were brought to the Capitol yesterday af- ternoon by the children of the Cottage Hill School to be used in the decoration of the historic old State House in honor of Memorial Day. The garlands were the school.
 They will be put in place today. The Confederate monument, the portico of the Capitol where Jefferson Davis was in augurated as President of the Confeder- acy and other points of interest about the building will be marked and decorated.
 The tender association between the Ala bama Capitol and the Confectionery has been each year recalled in its decorations by the ladies of the Memorial Associa- tion.
 This year as in the past the ladies of the Memorial Association with garlands and flowers will commemorate the old as- sociation and connection.

LABOR TROUBLE SOLVED.
Non Union Union Men Fill Places
 of Strikers

Indianapolis Qnd) Special to New Or
 leans TimeS-Democrat.
 4 solution of the labor troubles at Ma rion, where the building trades have been tied up for nearly a month past, was reached today, when non-uniOn men were brought into the town and put to work. The men are members of the new non union organization at Anderson.
 The contractors at Marion. after sever al weeks delay and after all hope of set tlement with the unions had vanished, appealed to the non-union organizers at Anderson for assistance, and bricklayers, carpenters and other mechanics were fur nished and went to work today.
 The arrivals from Anderson caused ex- citement among the union men, but the effect of independence on the part of the contractors was soon manifest in the application of several men for work. They made no concealment of the fact that they had struck against their better judg- ment and only in obedience to the rule of the majority of their unions They said that rather than leave the city they would work with the non-union men. Y The contractors accepted all who came, and the indications now are that the pro tracted stagnation in the business trades is over.
 The non-union organization at Ander- son, which will soon be incorporated as a national corporation, announces that it will soon be in a position to supply com petent mechanics wherever they are needed. Many memberps in other cities in the State are being enrolled in the membership.

Work of First Assistant
 Postmaster General.
Tn Qustion is Askd as to When "Mr. Machen Is to Be Fired," But the Answer as Yet Has
 Not Been Reached.

Washington, April 24.-(SpeciaL) )-Possi- biy but for the fact that a trained news- paper man, a correspondent well inform ed on the affairs of the government at government headquarters, was placed in commanding position in the Postottice Department. the public would have heard nothing of the numerous developments as to shady transactions in that Department
 But there was trouble to raised there and 1t has been brewing ever since Rob ert J. Wynne. late correspondent of The New York Press, was appointed First Assistant Postmaster General, Mir. Wynne was while a correspondent for the New York paper and during many years service as a newspaper writer in Wash ington well aware of not few indica- uons of irregularities, to say the least, in the Postoffice Department. AS soon as he assumed office he set about a close scrutiny of affairs in several of the sus- pected branches of the Department When Postmaster General Payne went off on an extended trip to the West Indies, leaving MT. Wynne in charge, the First Assistant Postmaster General made him. self felt in a very short time. He began to probe about with all his official nerve and things began to happen.
 The Beavers Episode.
 The nrSt indication that there was more than talk in the constant rumors of rep rehensible transactions in the Department directed suspicion to the division of sup plies and allowances, of which George w. Beavers was general superintendent. It was alleged that Beavers used his posi- tion for his own aggrandizement in awarding contracts for supplies for the department and for postoffices; also that he indulged in irregularities in permitting the promotion and advancement of clerks in postoffices, particularly the big New York postoffice. However innocent MT. Beavers may have been, he resigned un- der fire. 1t was given out that he left the Department to go into business in Brooklyn his home city. The latest re- port is that MT. Beavers Is under sur veillance by the Department and that he Is not engaged in any business.
 Another Department magnate-magnate In more senses than most people realized until his measure was taken-whose name has been very freely handled in connecz tendent of Rural Free Delivery A w. Machen. MT. Machen came into the De- partment from Indiana during President Clevelands last administration, receiving appointment as a Democrat. When Mo Kinley was elected, Machen became a warm administration man. Congress pro vided for the enlargement of the free de- livery system, extending 1t to the rural communities during the regime of MT.
