"WATcH KRESS' WINDOWS"
CHRISTMAS RUSH.
 LARGE IN NEW YORK
TT IS ESTIMATED THAT 3,84o,000 PARCELS WERE, SHIPPED OUT BY MAIL AND EXPRESS.
 STEAMERS ARE CELEBRATING.

New York, December 25.-It is esti- mated that during the Christmas rush there have been 3,S4O,000 parcels shipped out of the city by mail and express. Exact figures are unobtainable, but the figures based on estimates made at the postoffice and the express offices are thought to be approximately correct. The value of the packages sent by express, where values were given is said to be about $7400,00O. The number of pack ages sent out of the city this year js about 8 per cent greater than last year, while 1t is estimated that the value is 15 per cent less. This decrease in value is said to be due to the fact that goods are cheaper this year and that people are more careful in the expenditure of money.
 Christmas Is being celebrated in great style on board the steamers in the harbor. The giant Mauretanla Is wreathed with holly and other Christmas greens from stem to stern and a great feast will be set for the crew, at which each sailor or other employe will have a bottle of beer as an extra, more than 900 bottles of beer in all. Others steamers are decked with holiday wreaths and other decora- tions.

.GERST LOSES EYE
 IN BAD ACCIDENT Put Powder In Can and Match
 Was Struck EYE WAS TORN OUT Negroes Have Difficulty and One May Die-Bessemer EIks Have Splen- did Entertainment for Poor
 Chldrn.

Bessemer, December 25-(Special.)- )-Sev- eral accidents have occurred in this city today as a result of Christmas celebra- ton, but the most serious one was that which happened to little Eugene Gerst, an Age-Herald carrier, at o'clock this afternoon.
 The little fellow, in company with sev eral others, purchased some powder and is said to have made the remark to the dealer from whom the purchase was made that he intended to have a good time. They left the store and procured a can, after which they went to another place and purchased some fuses. One of these they placed in the can along with the powder. A match was then employed, and instead of the can going up in the air a portion of it struck young Gerst in the eye, completely destroying it. His eye was torn out and his face horribly burned. He was taken to the home of his mother and medical attention was given to him at once.
 The little fellow is we'll known in the city and the unfortunate accident is very much regretted by a number of his friends and patrons.

RESIGNATION IS
 STILL A SECRET
REAR ADMIRAL w. H. BROWNSON TURNS OFFICE OVER TO CAPT. McR. INSLoW-REFUSES TO DISCUSS RESIGNATION.

Washington, December 25.-Rear Ad- miral Willard H. Brownson, whose res ignation as chief of the bureau of navi- gation of the navy department was an nounced at the White House yesterday, turned over the affairs of his office to Capt. Cameron McR. Winslow. who has been designated to take charge of the work. He then said goodbye to his late associates in the office and returned to his home.
 Admiral Brownson declined again today to discuss the reasons which led up to his resignation. Again he made it manifest that any information bearing on the sub ject must come from those higher up in authority, to whom he referred all who asked him for news on the subject. He said with the greatest regret that he took leave of the navy department in an active capacity after 46 years of ser vice.
 The White House efforts to secure Ad- miral Brownson's letter of resignation or the reasons for his leaving the active ser- vice were met with the positive state ment that nothing beyond the bare an nouncement of the admirals resignation and the selection of his successor would be given out from that quarter either today or in the future.

DEFENSE EXPECTS
 TO CLOSE TODAY
CALEB POWERS TRIAL MAKES SLOW AND DULL PROGRESS ON CHRISTMAS DAY-Y OU TSEY MAY BE BROUGHT BACK.

Georgetown Ky, December 25.-Christ- mas Day in the Caleb Powers trial was dull, the morning being taken up with the testimony of w. R. Day, ex-state treasurer, and the reading of the deposi- ton of Charles Finley, followed by the former testimony of Gen. Dan R. Col Her, deceased. The defense expects to close tomorrow, and it is said the com monwealth is prepared to go on with its rebuttal testimony. It is also said that Henry Youtsey will be brought back to contradict Powers testimony.
 The testimony of the late Adj. Gen. Dan R. Collier was read. In it Collier denies knowing the location of Goebels room at the Capital hotel, when troops were drilled here, and stated that the mountain men were peaceable and quiet. General Golfers testimony, as read, ad- mitted a secret arrangement with Colonel Gray of Louisville, by which a code tele- gram should be sent, notifying Colonel Gray that 'the hour of action has ar rived" General Collier did not remem- Der receiving a letter from Caleb Pow CTS relative to military matters.
 Judge Jere R. Morton of Lexington, formerly counsel in the Powers case, tes- tified that he was in the court of appeals room when the shot was fired that killed Goebel Motions were being heard at the time, and Col. w. c. P. Brecken- ridge was called. Just as he took the floor. Judge Morton said, he heard one sharp shot, and a number of dull shots followed. Judge Morton's case was called and Charles Kerr of Lexington, who rep- resented the other side, had made some remarks when an officer of the court came in the court room and huTiedly went to the chief justice and made d communication. The chief justice then announced that Senator Goebel had been shot and the associate judges immediately left the bench.
 Judge Morton described whom he saw as he looked from the window. He told of the chatter of troops which he said came several minutes after, and from the window saw a body of men with Cap tain Sharp pass by. He saw one maa with thin whiskers and a second man whose expressions he could not define. He said he was certain it was not Yout sey. He said he knows James B. How ard, and while the boy in his build had some StrlklnB resemblance 10 HOWard, U was, not he, in Judge Morton's opinion.
 Charles Kerr testified to about the same in substance, saying also that the man he saw he would not identify as How ard. John G. White of Winchester, who was mentioned by Howard in his tosti- mony, testified that Howard was with him on the night before Goebel was shot, and that Howard had no mustache.
 w. J.. Wagers testified that Howard had no mustache when he got off the train at Frankfort the day Goebel was shot.

Bohan Is Injured.

Joe Bohan, a negro employed at the pipe shops, was struck on the head this afternoon by a negro named Jim Shaffer, and from the report received at police headquarters it appears that the negro is seriously if not fatally wounded
 It appears that the negroes were hav- ing game of cards, when Bohan made the remark that he did not believe Shaffer was playing the game fair. This remark caused Shaffer to become angry and he said that the game had better stop. This was done and the two men walked out side. After they had left the house in which they had been playing Shaffer called the other negro quitter and said that he knew nothing about the game. This statement brought on another argu- ment and resulted in Shaffer picking up a brick and hitting Bohan over the head. The negro fell to the ground, and for a while 1t was thought that he was killed He was picked up and a doctor was called in.
 Shaffer was arrested by Detectives Pat ton and Parsons and will be given a hear ing tomorrow morning.
