William H. Davis. controller of the Delaware
81 Hudson Railroad Company, and NJ p Blauvelt
controller Of the Erie Railroad Company. were the
principal witnesses in the opening OF the hearing
in New York yesterday of the proceedings which
are being brought by the United States govern
ment with the view OF dissolying the Hard Coal
Trust" In testifying important points the
memories Of the railroad officials proved lacking
and the witnesses dismissed with the under.
standing that verified statements OF the statistics
demanded be brought at a later hearing
Mr.. Davis testified 10 the number OF tons OF coal
moved by his road from the year 1907 10 the
present, but could not remember the figures OF the
present year When the government experts sup
piled him With data he would not accept them but
promised 10 return with the figures at some future
date. From the figures supplied by the govern
ment experts II would appear that the tonnage Of
his road has greatly increased and the freight
rates had been lowered
According to the testimony OF Mr BlauveIt Of
the Erie Railroad the Hillside Coal and Iron Com
pany and the Pennsylvania Coal Company were
the principal shippers. each aggregatng more than
million tons year. Albert Moot. representing
the Erie Railroad. asked Mr. Blauvelt II the

FlTORS CHICAGO Reform.
But Morgan Has Had No Order ne
garding General DetUery.

When Postmaster Edward NJ. Morgan was asked
yesterday if he intended TO follow the action taken
by the Postoffice authorities at Chicago where
thousands who have been receiving man at the
general delivery had to reveal their real names
and addresses and sign cards of identincauon De
they could obtain their letters, he said that
personally he was in favor of such a movement
but yet he had not received an official Oroer
from Washington.
Postmaster Morgan said that the Chicago order
was probably the outgrowth of resolutions passeo
at the recent convention OF the first class post
masters held at Toledo in which the department
at Washington asked to investigate general
delivery and ascertain how much illegiti'nate cor
respondence carried through its means.
He said that the resolution also urged the depart
ment at Washington to limit the use of general
delivery 20 thirty days
las far this city is concerned" said Mr
Morgan. there is general delivery at any or
the branch Offices My attention called to
we put a stop to the private mail boxes which
located at various cigar stores, groceries and
other such places"
Asked what is done when a letter was addressed
10 a person for general delivery at branch office.
Mr.. Morgan said that the letter remained at the
general postOfice until called for
Mr.. Morgan said that the change of conditions
in Chicago might mean that the Postoffice author
titles at Washington were making a test previous
10 issuing an order to apply throughout the cOun-
try. So far the New York POstoffice was con-
cerned. Mr.. Morgan said stringent rules governed
the general delivery. and person must be thor
oughly identified before a letter was delivered

Get your supply of wet goods to

Saturday evening saloon sign, in the
copper country. Every bar in the
cities closes up tight on Sunday and
there is a noticeable and unappeased
thirst. There is also general exodus
when the city clock strikes II at night.
The saloon men are obeying the law to
the letter, and trusting for revision at
the next session of Legislature to correct
any provision which they find over
burden-some. The most pathetic result
of the Warner-Crampton law is the
empty refrigerator larder and free lunch
counter. A habit of years is one which
is not easy to break, and they still find
themselves walking toward the former
home of the free lunch while Bill is
drawing them an extra high one.
