Washington, Jan. 30.-RepresenT

action in the matter of improving
the Cumberland river in Kentucky.
Such work, he says, would be of i'm

Gravel Switch. a few miles east of
Paducah on the Louisville division
of the /. c., is in operation again
after a suspension of about forty
days.
The pit is generally closed in the

the pit will be operated from now on
unless the weather interferes sufii-

ducah.
OTHER MATTERS CONSIDERED.

The Commercial club held a meet
ing at its headquarters last night to
hear Secretary d. w. Coons' report
On his trip east in the interest of the
club and to discuss other matters
before the club. There was a good
attendance of club members.
One of the principal matters Mr..
Coons was to investigate when he
was in New York was the prospect
OF diverting some of the immigrants
to this country to Paducah and Nc
Cracken county, and he reported
that he called on the immigrant Of
ficials and agents of all the steam.
ship lines, and found that the best
way to prosecute this work was
through advertising direct to proba-
ble immigrants,--to send the club
literature into the countries from
which the immigrants were desired.
Authority to do so has first to be Sc
cured from the state legislature be
fore the foreign governments will
let it come in, and this authority
will be granted by the present legi5-
lature as bill to that effect is a.
ready before the legislative bodies.
The club turned the matter over
to its immigration committee, with
instructions TO go into the matter
thoroughly and report later. Mr..
Coons also reported on a proposition
from Boston capitalists who want to
locate $25O,OOO cotton mill in
some southern town, and the pro-
moters were invited to Paducah to
look over the situation.
The club has invited the Chicago
commercial club to send a committee
to Paducah TO get acquainted with
the city and business men and to
take up the matter of better railroad
facilities between the two cities, es-
recially to see II something can be
done to get a better passenger SER
vice between the two cities. The
committee from Chicago will come
to Paducah one day next week, and
will be te guests of the local club.
AT the meeting. Mr.. Coons also
reported the results of some solicit
ing he has been doing for the Meth
odist college project, and he seems
70 think the prospects of the city
raising a good sum to offer the col
lege are very good.

Steam shovel No. 81, which has
been working at Gravel Switch for
the past several summers, is receiv-
ing a thorough overhauling in the

II is likely to be the subject of much
controversy.
This is said to be the biggest steam
shovel on the system and several di-
visions want it this summer. There
are about Ave shovels on the south
ern divisions and one is used inces-
sanity except from two or three
months in the winter at Gravel
Switch. The X 81 was well worn out

men charged with minor offenses.
AS a result of their work the Bell
county Jail at Pineville is crowded,
