WOULD ENLlsT SUPPORT
 FOR NEW COTTON MILL.
A. H. Guliiver Would Locate New in-
 dustry in Town of Waterford.


 An effort is being made to interest New Londoners in the establishing of a cotton mill in Waterford. The promoter of the enterprise is Arthur H. Gulliyer of this city, who is an ex- pert cotton manufactures. Browning beach has practically been decided upon as the site for the mill, which is almost an assured fact. MT. Gull liver, 1t is understood. has already large sums of money at his disposal and all that is needed is the support, financially to a certain extent but to greater extent morally of the peo- pie of New London and Norwich, MT. Gulliver wants to feel that New Lon don and Norwich people are interest ed and that he has their cooperation in the project.
 The projected mill will be an im- mense one and will employ hundreds of hands. Browning beach is consid- cred an ideal site for the mill, being easily accessible by railroad and hav- ing an exceptionally adequate water frontage. The establishing of the mill there would mean virtually the build ing of small city.
 MT. Gulliver has been connected as head of several of the largest cotton n1illiEg concerns in the country and understands the business thoroughly The company would be capitalized at several hundreds of thousands of dol lars.
 MT. Gulliver is planning to have MT Babcack, editor of Fibre and Fabrics we'll known cotton journal, address business men of New London and Nor- Wich in the near future, in order that the cotton idea may be brought prop erly to their attention.

PosToFFIcE SUBSTITUTES.
Clerks and Carriers Named-Law
 Makes New Salary Grading.

Recent appointments as substitute clerks at the postofIice are James l.. TOurtelotte and William R. Saunders, auxiliary clerk Job Herman Tubbs; additional substitute carriers since June are James T. Carey, Patrick T. McNerney and Silas N. Sandberg. The four old substitutes. William E. doing auxiliary work, William J. Wal lace. the parcel post carrier, and Chris tian J. Hoefer
 A thing of interest to some of the newly appointed clerks and carriers is the abolishment of the first grade, so that appointments will be made to the $500 grade hereafter, instead of to the $500 grade as has hitherto been the case.
 All the clerks and carriers who were in the first grade on June 90 were ad- vanced to a salary of $500 on July 1, regardless of the length of time they had served in the first grade. 1t is required, however, that all clerks and carriers advanced to $500 must serve one full year in that grade before be- coming eligible for promotion to the $500 grade.
 In the classification act, approved March 2. 1907, there were provisions for automatic promotions each year, bosed upon the efficiency and faithful ness of the employees, so in the law that has just gone into effect there is a provision that requires employees to continue to render faithful and efficient service under penalty of de- motion.
 Another part of the act states that clerks and carriers of the highest grades in their respective offices shall be eligible for promotion to higher po- sitions in their postoffices.
