Very little difficulty has been expe-
rienced so far with oversize parcels.
Most of the packages that have been
received for delivery have been of
mailable size. In a few instances,
however, packages have had to be
refused. These cases have been more
from overweight, however. than from
over size.
Several parcels have been refused
also because of the nature of their
contents or because of improper
wrapping. Goods packed in wooden
boxes do not need further protection.
Markings and stamps may be placed
directly on the wood.
This is not so. however. in the case
of metal encasings or vessels. Those
articles must be further protected
with heavy wrapping paper Commo-
dities of an explosive nature, such as
metal polishes containing gasoline,
will not be forwarded by post.
About % per cent of the packages
sent through have been insured. This
large percentage, it is thought, is due
to the lack of confidence in the
project. because of its recent estab-
lishment.

ASK RECEIVER FOR
TWO CEMETERIES
Linden and RosedaIe Tangle Is
Brought to Court of
Chancery.

Final argument in the case of Will
lam Bliss and others against the
Linden Cemetery Association and
Emma w. Noll against the Rosedale
Cemetery Association was held before
Vice-Chancellor Howell today.
The complainants, who are the
holders of loan certificates and cred
itors of the association, ask for the
appointment of a receiver. The orig
inal motion was returnable January
II The case is one of the most novel
ones that has ever been brought to
Vice Chancellor. Howells attention.
Both associations were organized
bv William +. Smith in January,
1900 and incorporated. The Rosedale
Cemetery was incorporated by John
l.. Lowden, Charles L. Savidge, De-
witt D. Winans, Hannah A. Winans,
Henry D. Hustler and John H. TITUS
The incorporators of the Linden
Cemetery were practically the same
The land for the Rosedale Cemetery
was acquired by the purchase OF
three parcels embracing some sew
entv-four acres. In addition to the
land. Smith acquired the FRANCHISES
and permission to use the land for
cemetery purposes.
shares were issued by Smith in a
certain fund to be produced by the
sale of land, but it is contended by
Terry Parker, counsel for the share
holders, that these purchasers dio
not have any vote or interest IN the
management of the organization
The principal point of contention
made by Abram H. Cornish for the
appointment of a receiver was the
mystery surrounding the sale OF the
shares issued by Smith, in the sale
nrice of the cemetery lands, ana IN
the subsequent issue of loan GER
tificates.
Mr. Parker contended that the loan

for their private benefit. A receiver

No evidence had been given to SHOW
that the executive officers OF the as

Mr.. Cornish stated, on question Of
court, that he represented two-thirds
of the loan certificate holders who

Mr.. Parker brought out the fact
that one of the judgment creditors, a

| the Fidelity Trust Company as truss
tees for Leslie P. and Helen Ward,
being part of legacies due them from
the estate. This amount, together
with other expenses in Misunderstanding
the estate. leaves a total balance In
| the income account sof $13, 1928 to
start the year 1913 with.
The income is derived from stocks
owned by the estate in the Pruden-
| tial Insurance Company, the Fidelity
Trust Company, Union National
Bank, United States Steel Corpora
ton, Public Service Corporation, Uni
ted Electric Company, New Jersey
| Street Railway Company and other
high class stocks.
The accounting goes deeply into the
| detail of expenditures, an instance
being shown in two adjoining lines
| in the statement. One reads ITO FL
| deity Trust Company as trustee for
Helen Ward, $97,571." The next item
is ITO c. Bruen, for cleaning snow
from IN front of 1858 Broad street

TRIAL OF BEAUTY BEACH
ON TOMORROW
Aiken, S. c., Feb. 3.-The trial
of Frederick o. Beach, Beauty"
Beach, the society butterfly, for
the attempted murder Of his
young and beautiful wife, opens
here tomorrow.
And the prosecution still is
without the most important ma
terial evidence it wishes to pre-
sent. That evidence is the large
blade of Beach's penknife, the
knife that used to hang at the end
o ia chain from his vest pocket.
Detectives for the prosecution
have raked the Turner cottage,
where the assault occurred, and
its grounds for that penkhife
blade.
They say that when found the
blade will be seen to be stained
with blood, the blood of Mrs.
Beach.
The rest of the knife the prose
cution already has. Beauty
Beach himself surrendered it to
Mayor Giles afer his arrest last
winter.
The knife is stained with blood.
But Beach's attorneys have
very pretty theory to account for
this blood.
They say that Beach found his
wife wounded in the garden; that
he picked her up mad carried her
into the house, and that the blood
from her slit throat dripped over

his vest and the knife.
This might explain the blood
on the knife. But it would not ex-
plain bloodstains on the missing
blade.
The attack upon Mrs. Beach
occurred on the night of Febru-
airy e, 1912, in her own front
garden. The diamond earrings
were torn from her ears and her
throat slit almost from ear to ear.
Mrs. Beach declared that an
unknown man had attacked her.
Beach protested to be overcome
with grief, and told how he had
heard his wife scream and found
her wounded in the garden.
Then anne Detective Baughn
and told another story. Baughn
declared that Mrs. Beach and her
co1ored maid had gone out that
night; that Beach had assaulted
the maid because she would not
tell him where his wife was, and
had then lain in wait for his wife.
Also Baughn swore out an in
formation charging Beauty
Beach with the attempted murder
of his wife, and the Beaches left
for Europe.
Mrs. Beach is the daughter of
Courtlandt Moss of Philadelphia.
Her first husband was Charles D.
