 GAYNOR'S APOLOGY

New York, February 16.-Gen. Theodore A Bingham, police commissioner of New York under Mayor Mcclellan, made pub lie today a letter he received from Mayor Gaynor apologizing for strong words used by the mayor, then Supreme Court Justice Gaynor in criticising police ac- ton in the arrest of a Brooklyn boy named Duffy.

FUNERAL SERVICES | FOR MAINE VICTIMS
Cruiser Birmingham and North Carolina Will
 Carry Bodies

Washington, February 16.-1mpressive funeral services for bodies of sailors re- covered from the wrecked battleship Maine and for the remains of the battle ship itself lave been arranged by the United States and Cuba.
 Soon after March it Is expected the twisted mass which has lain 14 years in the Havana harbor mud will be lowed out into the Gulf of Mexico and sunk. The scout cruiser Birmingham and the arm- ored cruiser North Carolina with the re- covered skeletons aboard, will convoy the Maine to it's final resting place.
 As the two cruisers take the wreck out into the gulf the batteries of the North Carolina will roar out a salute of H guns. The shore batteries of Cuba will answer as the procession steams out to sea.
 When deep water is reached crews will be called to quarters. funeral march will be played. three volleys will be fired and as all that is left of the old Maine disappears a bugler will sound taps.
 The North Carolina and the Birming- ham, with colors at half mast, will steam away for Hampton Roads. There the bodies of the sailors will be transferred from the North Carolina to the Birming- ham, which will bring them to Washing ton for burial in Arlington National cem- etery with military honors
 President Gomez has issued a decree calling for elaborate ceremonies in Ha- vana as the ships leave the harbor. Flags OH all Cuban military posts and public buildings will fly at half mast.
 When the bodies are taken to the North Carolina in the morning the shore bat teries will begin an all day firing of can non, which will continue every 30 min utes until sunset.
 A guard of honor of Cuban soldiers and sailors will watch over the bodies while the ceremonies on shore are in progress.

BOYCES TRIED ID KEEP PAIR SEPARATE Son of Man Snead Killed Testifies Against
 Him

Fort Worth, February 16-J Ii. Boyee, son of A. G. Boyce, ST, whom J. B. Snead is accused of having mur- dered, as a witness for the prosecution in the trial of Snead, today denied that members of the Boyce family conspired q to separate snead and his wife that she might join A. C. Boyee, Jr. his brother.
 Instead of aiding in the affair. he said, the Boyces endeavored to keep the two apart and with this end in view he had conferred with. a brother of the defendant and Mrs. Snead s father
 As an illustration of his fathers at titude he quoted the elder man as hav- ing said, with regard to A. G. Boyce, Jr., that If 1t was not for his mother I'd make him leave hone.s It is the contention of snead that despite avow- als of friendship, members of the Boyce family assisted the younger man in eloping with Mrs. Snead.
 The witness explained his refusal to tell Snead of his brothers whereabouts after the elopement to Canada with the assertion that Snead had declared The would kill him on sight" Devious methods used in the transmission of letters and messages between himself and brother, the witness said, were necessary to prevent their being inter- copied.
 Knowledge that in the event Mrs Snead was declared insane a statutory charge might be preferred against his brother, prompted his watchfulness of court proceedings after the elopement he said.
 Tpdays court session was interrupted by the illness of a member of the jury. His indisposition, however, is not re- garded as serious and in all probability he will have sufficiently recovered be- fore tomorrow to resume his place in tile jury box.
 It is anticipated that the greater part of tomorrow will be. required to com plete the testimony of J. II. Boyoe.

FIGURES ON LUMBER TRADE
 DURING PAST TWELVE MONTHS

New Orleans, February 16.-The Lum- Der Trade Journal of New Orleans to- day publishes complete lumber statistics tor all gulf and south Atlantic ports for the calendar year of 19ll with total for est products from the entire country, with comparisons for 1910 The report says:
 "On the whole the condition is an en- eouraging one as regards the general lumber export business of the country although not entirely gratifying as far as the southern field is concerned.
 A was the case last year, the four southern ports of Gulfport, Mobile, Pen sacola and New Orleans lead in exports of the three measurements of boards, deals and plank sawf. timber and hewn timber, their total being nearly half of those for the entire country Of these New orleans fig the only one to show an increase, the total for this year being 256, 10000 feet, as against 236,93 5000 the year previous. Gulfport figures are 356, csc, 900 feet last year and 367 05o, 900 in 1910; Mobile 29S ,000 in 1911 and 320 501 900 In 1910; Pensacola, 2S3, AZ 0o0 in the year just past and 293,66 GOO the year before. As will be noticed, their relative position In volume of shipments remains the same, and the totals from these ports are 1194,- 493. 900 and l.2lS, ,9s9.000 feet for 1911 and f910 respectively a loss of 2l, 496,0O0 feet. On the other hand the total of the meas Lrement items for the country was 2.737,- S79.oOO for 1911. and 2.379,172oo0 for 1910, gain of 35s, ,207. 900 feet, from which it will be seen that their lead was materially reduced. although still a commanding one.
 Tn slaves New Orleans continues to export by far more than any other port. and again it's proportion of the total exceeds half Last year it exported 37- 271 ,960 slaves out of a total of 66,097 9s7, and the year before %. .742S SS3 out of total of 5S.651 .374. Its increase of 6,529.077 ac counts for all but a small fraction of the total increase of 744t6l3. Mobile also made Q notable increase in stave exports, going from 6s2 10 3712, 315, or more than three of the volume of the pre- vious year. The increase in stave ship ments from Savannah was even more
