MAYOR GILLETTE As WITNESS.
Succeeded Captain Carter in Charge of
 Savannah District.


 Succeeded Captain Garter in Charge of
 Savannah District.
 Savannah, Ga, Feb. 9.-Maior Cas- sius F. Gillette was the chief witness in the trial of Greene and Gaynor in the Federal Court today. His testi- many related largely to the work dsne by the defendants on the Government contracts for the improvement of riv CTS and harbors of the Savahnah dis trict.
 Major Gillette succeeded Capt. o. M. Carter in charge of the Savannah dis trict, and unearthed the alleged frauds that resulted in the courtmartial and conviction of Carter and the indictment and trial of Greene and Gaynor as CO., conspirators.
 His testimony was that of an expert in jetty work ahd dredging. He de- scribed in detail the construction of mattresses and facines, and then touch ed upon the most important features of the days disclosures, namely, the vast difference in Greene and Gaynor's favor in prices paid for Jetty work un- der Carter's administration and those which had beeh paid other contractors under Major Gillette's administration
 There were but two other witnesses and their testimony was soon conclud- ed. Major Gillette was still on the stand at the end of the session and it is probable that several days will be required to complete his examination.

statements indicate little idle capacity the leading industrial plants having added to their already heavy contracts on haad. Mercantile collections are prompt, as rule, although some ex- tensions are asked for. Commodity prices are steady. The only adverse development of the week was the less pacific news from the coal fields, al- though strike may be prevented by agreement any time before April l.. Railway earnings for January" now fairly complete, show an increase Of 16 6 per cent. over last years figures, while foreign commerce at this port for the last week made most favor; able comparison with the same period in 1905, exports gaining SS.sSO, 6ss, while imports increase $2,275,0ss.
 Less urgency to place orders for iron and steel products during the past week Is a satisfactory development, be- cause it testifies to the absence of the speculative operations that might cas- fly produce unwholesome imitation Of prices, Yet the past week was by no means devoid, of new inquiries, partic- ularly in regard to structural steel.
 Seasonably poor quality of hides has weakened the tone, the only firm de- partment being packer branded hides for sole leather. New business in boots and shoes Is quiet.

SPRING J0BBING REPORTS OF l
 FAVORABLE CHARACTER.
More seaaonnbIe Weather Has Stimu- lated Demand in Some Lines of Retail Business--Rnilroad

New York, Feb. 9.-Bradstreet's to- morrow will say:
 Reports as to spring jobbing trade arc Of a very favorable character ana more seasonable weather has stlmuiassea ments SA finished products are Of enof- nous volume and mills are stili pgsnSd to fill orders previously booked. Ia road earning returns indicate that Jah- uary was the most active eyer expSrl- eneed by the companies, gross receipts chewing a gain of 20 per cent over last year, very active period likewise. Re-
 krainst these favorable features are to De cited the disquieting influences of predictions and preparations Tor general coal strike, involving 50o,0OO men. It is also to be noted that the mild weather has caused an accumu- lation of retail stocks of heavy cloth- ing, shoes and kindred products and eliminated recorder business from 9oo- ping hands, except at some western points. That buyers are disposed to buy conservativeiy for fall Is reported in the lines affected, notably men wear woolens and shoes.
 Money is easy and collections range from only fair to good. Price move nrents of leading staples are generally toward easy and som recessions, as Tor instance in pig iron, develop new ousi- ness Detailed telegrams to Brad streets report a generally active ap- pearance to all lines of spring jobhing trade. Cottons, silks and dress wool ems are all active, but mems wear, wooiens for fall delivery lag, Raw wool is active on manufacturers buying and prices are frmer. Lower raw cotton prices have not yet affected the goods market, which is strong; some revival m export trade with China is indicated.

SCOPE OF RURAL SERVICE.
Nall Will Not Be Delivered Unless Ad-
 dressed to Person

Mall Will Not Be Delivered Unless Ad-
 dressed to Person.
 Washington, Feb 9-At the Post office Department today it was said that an erroneous impression seems to exist in some parts of the country re- garding the scope of the rural free de- livery service.
 Although the fourth assistant post master general has recommended that mail matter be permitted to be ad- dressed to rural boxes according to their numbers and not to any partic- ular individual, the same as in post offices, the postmaster general has not as yet given his approval to the same. In not q few instances the proposed gave rise to complaint, 1t being alleged that the rural free delivery service would be utilized by large business houses throughout the country as an advertising medium to the disadvantage of the local mer- chants.
 As the matter now/ stands. unless mail Is specifically addressed to per sons residing on rural routes, it will not be delivered.

The English parliamentary campaien has revived stories of heckIers, their triumphs and cOmfitures.

Can didates will recall with a shudder, for instance, that terrible moment when a speaker, wishing to emphasize his strict regard for truth, remarked that in his youth he had been thrashed for telling it, when from the back of the Lall was waited through the atmos- phere the cutting comment.

 Promise of industrial expansion in Central Kentucky Is given in cores pondenee in this weeks issue of the Manufacturers Record from Lexing- ton, ky, telling of the beginning of the utilization of the immense natural gas resources of Eastern Kentucky by the completion of a 40-mile pipe line from Menifee County to Lexington and intermediate points.
 The nroduct of the wells was turned on in the past week and so great is the pressure that gas Is brought in without pressure, leading to the opin- ion that one of the richest natural gas fields in the country has been tapped Forty miles of mains have been con structed in Lexington and sixteen miles in Winchester and Mt. Sterling, while in the near future extensions will be made to other points.
 The Menifee gas belt has been prov en to extend over wide area. Nine- teen excellent gassers have been drill ed and the limits of the belt. which extends into Wolfe County, have not vet been defined. All the wells have not been thoroughly tested but con- servative estimate of the aggregate output is 14,000,000 cubic feet daily' This flow, it is estimated, will coHttn-- ne for at least a generation without
 the addition of new wells, altneugh drilling will be continued
 Gas has been found in Kentucky from the Ohio River to the Tennessee border and from the West Virginia border to Meade and Hancock Counr | ties on the west. an area embracins more than two-thirds Nf the state Several years ago a pipe line was con structed from the Meade county natur- | al gas belt to Louisville, and the wells of that county have maintained gratifying production ,.s4,,- In eastern Kentucky pipe line has been in operation from the Martin County gas belt to towns along the
