for great length of time. The road
having been prepared, the cement is
placed on the bed" in strips, and gra-
dually cools off Immediately it has
grown cool it becomes hard, and is
then ready for use.
The contractors claim that bituli-
thic paving has been a success in
many of the large cities of the Unit
ed States. 1t has numerous advan-
tages over macadamized, wood paved
and asphalt roads. Owing to the
amount of crushed rock that is used
insits composition, the bitulithic pave
ment presents a face" that makes
for smooth running OF vehicles, with
a biting surface that eliminates all
danger of skidding, even when it is
wet. AS the component parts are
thoroughly mixed this surface is met
with throughout It is also claimed
that the wearing qualities are admir-
able, therefore decreasing considera-
bly, the cost ON maintenance; facts no
doubt that Influenced the Supervisors
in arriving at their decision to have
portion of Fort street paved in this
manner.
The machinery used for preparing
the bitulithic paving Is not extensive
by any means, but it is up-to date in
every way. 1t is electrically driven,
and oil fuel is used to heat the cylin-
ders containing the revolving drums
which the crushed rock has to pass
through. 1t is necessary IN order that
the life of the machine may not be
curtailed, that portions of it be kept
running after the work of preparing
the paving material has been con-
cluded. If the machine were allowed
to cool off suddenly, portions of IT.
would shrink and have to be replaced.
In order, therefore, to obviate this.
the machinery has been so construc-
ted that it can be run in sections. Lee
vers regulate various clutches and
thus those parts of the machine that
are finished with, can remain station
airy while the other portions are being
cooled off.
The dynamo that drives the ma
chinery, and the pumps that force the
compressed air and oil through the
tubes, are contained in small build
ing conveniently placed.
1t is anticipated that some actual
work will be done TO-DAY, when some
exhibition specimens VIII be turned
out. The actual paving of Fort street
the contractors say, can be begun just
as soon as they are given permission
to start, for they have everything in
readiness.
Judging by the reports circulated
concerning this description of paw
ing, it should come into general ia
vor, for it has general utility, eccno-
my of maintenance and non slipping
qualities to recommend it. Besides
this it is easier to keep clean than
macadamized thoroughfare.

100000 EASTER CARDS
MAILED HERE TODAY.
Newark Office Deluged Witt
Record Mail for This Season.

The heaviest Easter mail, particularly
in postal cards, that has ever deluged
the postoffice is keeping the clerks on
a twelve-hour schedule today, and
promises to continue well into the final
deliveries tomorrow. The ever-growing
custom on the part of the public of
sending greetings to friends on all holi-
days brought hundred thousand cards
into the Office today. Up TO 10 o'clock
this morning the machines registered
&, 900, and the later day collections
brought In the remainder.
On wednesday the cards began to
come into the office In greater number.
and yesterday a total of $4,000 were
collected and delivered. The deliveries
are being made on schedule time.
AS usual, a large number of cards are
held up at the postoffice because of the
carelessness OF the public, both in re-
gard to properly addressing the cards
and the postal regulation requiring ali
tinsel cards to be enclosed In sealed
envelope. Anywhere from three TO five
thousand cards a day are thrown out
because of these violations

GRAFT SECRETS
MADE PUBLIC
BY GRAND JURY
Presentment Handed Down Re-
plete With Pittsburg
Civic Scandal.

PITTSBURG, March 25.-A grand
jury presentment, replete with civic
scandal, was handed down today by the
nineteen grand jurors comprising the
graft Investigating body which con-
vened Monday. The sensational story
giving the inside facts of corruption in
the selection of city repositories In 1908
was the burden of the presentment.
Three indictments We're ordered re-
ported against William Brand, Charles
Stewart and Hugh Ferguson, all former
members of councils and all of whom
already have been indicted.
The grand jury made formal de-
mands, to be returned next Monday,
upon the directors of six city deposit
tories for information as to what they
had done and are doing toward ferret
ing out the extent of bribery opera
tions carried on in their institutions in
connection with councilmanic graft
cases. The grand jury also demands
whatever knowledge they have of i'm
plications in their respective institu-
tions., and orders the return of city
deposits. The presentment states that
the investigation Is not complete, and
every effort will be made to bring out
the whole truth The calling of bank
directors into court is believed to
promise one of the biggest develop
ments in the whole expose. 1s
Immediately after returning the pre-
sentiment the grand jury resumed ses-
sions. Late today it Is said that at
least fifteen true bills, including the
names of the much-rumored 'men

of the following banks: The Farmers
Deposit National Bank, the Columbia
National Bank, the Second National
Bank, the German National Bank, of
Pittsburg, and the German National
Bank, of Allegheny. We find
that William Brand. Charles Stewart.
John Klein, Joseph Wasson and Hugh
Ferguson, all of whom were members
OF the city councils of Pittsburg, con-
spired to solicit and receive the sum of
$102, 500, each of the banks paying
s17,500, except the Workingman's Saw
ings and Trust Company, which paid
SIS, 900. We further find these five men
assigned the handling and soliciting of
bribes from banks to certain individ-
uals, all but one of whom were mem-
bers Of their clique. Stewart was as
signed to collect this money.
Stewart, we find, met an unnamed
man in a New York hotel in May, 1908.
Stewart and the unnamed man ex-
changed duplicate cards and the un-
named man left a bundle containing
$17, 500 on the bed of Stewards room"

BIG DEMANDS FOR
MONEY ARE MADE
BY INSTITUTIONS
Cash Needed to Care for More
Inmates-COmmittees Work
Hard on Bills.
[Fron a stafr Correspondent

TRENTON, March 25.-Although the
State Housa was practically closed to-
day, because OF the Good Friday holi-
day the joint appropriations committee
OF the Legislature was in session in the
office of the State comptroller wrestling
with getting the regular and supple
mental FINANCIAL bills In shape for pre-
sentation to the lawmakers. The un-
usual plan of sitting on a holiday was
adopted in order to hurry the bills in
case the Legislature should get ready
for final adjournment next Friday. If
it is decided Monday or Tuesday that
the law-making shall cease next week
then the appropriations committee will
do further hustling and the bills will be
introduced on Thursday.
None of the members of the commit
tee would talk about the appropriations
outlook, but there is every indication
that there will be considerable in
crease over the figures of last year.
The regular appropriations then were
81. .245.O17.32 and the supplemental bill
called for about s35O.O0o more. There is
an insistent demand for money in all
quarters this year. All the State insti-
tutlOnS are crying Ior duoAliohnA ouAAS
to enable them to take care OF large
waiting lists Of persons seeking admit
tance.
Already several bills carrying ex-
traordinary appropriations have been
passed and others are pending. These
cover several armories, proposition
to set aside 100000 for the Hudson
river drive, s6O,OOO for an addition to
the State House and $30,000 for the
improvement of the State House park.
If the Governors plan of putting State
trunk highways under State control
goes through it will take more money
to maintain them.
One reason there is not a strong dis
position toward the rigid economy OF
last year is that the automobile fees
and the collateral Inheritance tax
have shown large increases this year,
giving the State additional income.
Those present at the hearing today
were Senators Bradley, Mfnch and
Gaunt, and Assemblymen Smalley,
Pierce and Lee. Senator Cornish and
Assemblymen White and Lee were alb
sent.
