WOULDN'T STAND FOR A
NEGRO ROUTE CARRIER

SPRINGFIELD, Tenn, April s.
Quite a sensation was caused some
time ago by the appointment of Geo
Banks, a negro, as carrier on rural
route No. 5, to succeed Robert l.
Cobbs, resigned. Banks qualified and
this morning assumed the duties as
carrier Much Indignation was ex
pressed by patrons of the route, and
all of the boxes but six were remoy'
ed, the people requesting the postmas
ter at Springfield to hold their mail
until called for. Two boxes were
taken down today, and Banks deliv-
cred only fourteen pieces of mail and
collected three.
When Banks arrived at the postof-
fee this afternoon, he was asked about
the situation, and replied that he did
not think he could hold his position
long. OF course this means the abol-
ishment of the route.

FLOOD OF EGGS

New York Journal of Commerce.
The Oldest produce dealers of the
West Side assert that never in the
history of the egg business in this
city have the receipts been SO great
as yesterday, April g. One day in
April, 1906, has heretofore held the
record for large receipts, when Az
165 cases were received, but yester-
day passed the $4,000 mark and estab-
lished a new record. Under the ire
mendous influx of eggs the market,
which has heretofore held remarkably
firm, slumped cent to cent and a
half.
A prominent factor in the West
Side trade declares that there have
been received in this market since the
LIST of January more eggs by SO per
cent, than in any similar period, and
no one can yet see the end Of the food.
Fully 30 per cent. OF the arrivals are
packed for storage, and even the most
conservative agree that not far from
200, 900 cass have already been stored.
More are certainly stored today than
are usually found in refrigerators four
or five weeks later in the year, Most
of these have been laid away at from
1871 to 1914 cents, and very few more
eggs will be laid down at any such
price. Judges of the situation feel
that storing eggs at such figure was
mistake, especially as the storage
egg coming now can be laid down
at from TN to IS cents, and proba-
bly, lower little later on.
It is estimated that the storehouses
of this city can accommodate 100000
cases of eggs, but not above 100000
have ever been known to be in ware
houses at one time. One factor pre-
diets by Oct. there will be held In
warehouses not less than a million
cases. or almost double the amount
ever held before at any one time. II
ia thought that In a few days the pro
portion OF eggs packed fer storage
will be Increased by packers to fully
20 peY cest. or the whcle.

For the first time this session no

The Senate refused to concur in

The Senate again gave evidence OF
the fact that it will stand by Senator

Cunningham over the Clarksville char

Senate to get some other bills from
that county as special order al the
request of Speaker Cunningham, but
Senator Fort while not objecting

would not grant Speaker Cunning

Immediately after meeting this
morning the House went into commit

alton of the revenue bill. Several
changes to the existing laws we're
adopted including marked increases
in the tax on express and sleeping
car companies. The mileage tax on
street car companies in the larger
cities was also materially increased.
The tax on railroad terminals was
increased about 25 per cent. The tax
on telephone boxes was also Increased.
There was an animated debate over
the amendment to the tax on tele-
phone boxes and some rather pointed
remarks were INDUCED in, the atmos-
phere being a little lurid at times,
but no harm resulted.
