The last week covered by the official
reports of the Southern Pine Associa-
ton was one of no marked develop
ments, according to the report of the
association, made public today, a
slight decline in movement having
taken place as compared with the pre-,
ceding week, but with prices holding
firm. While stocks at the mills con-
tinue to accumulate to some extent,
they are still considerably below those
held during the later months of last
year, and the situation in this respect
is a normal one at this season, the ef-
feet of the winter being to keep the
building demand from the North con-
siderably below the average
Inquiries in anticipation of spring
requirements from this source are not
yet markedly in evidence, but with
anything like the volume of these in
dicated by reports of building activi
ties in sight, the increase of mill
stocks at the present rate will still
leave them at not more than a normal

London, Feb. 10.-Signs that mill

by the Bulgarian organ at Sofia. which
asserts the right of Bulgaria to invade
Greece and attack the French and
British there. Reports regarding the
intentions of the Teutonic allies as
to moving from Southern Serbia and
Bulgaria on the entente allies at Sa-
lOniki, are contradictory.

war fronts activity is more marked
than for some time. Some movement

The urgent need of public hitching
place for the use OF farmers and others
coming into Hattiesburg to spend any
length of time was pointed out to the
City commissioners, and to the Off
cials of the Hattiesburg Commercial
Club by local business men and by
residents of the rural communities of
Forrest.
What action will be taken on the
request made of the City Fathers is
not known. That such a place is
needed, every day in the year, is adj
mitted by the commissioners. Wheth-
er any money is available for this
purpose, has not been decided.
In presenting the matter to Presi-
dent T. C. Hannah, of the Commercial
Club, today one farmer said:
Territory Limited.
"The new traffic regulations of Hat
tiesburg have limited greatly the ter
ritory in which horses may be hitched
and vehicles located, while their own
ers are looking after business affairs
in the city. The result is that the old
accustomed hitching places, still out
side the limits prescribed by the city
ordinance, and yet accessible to the
business sections. are crowded to the
overflowing point. There is not room
enough there to accommodate all the
horses brought into the city. What is
the result? We must hitch in the resi-
Dental sections near the business CEN
ter, and are repeatedly complained
against by the occupants OF these
neighborh0ods.
Scores of farmers come to your
city every day. They ride and drive
into town. Maybe they want to remain
a few minutes; maybe few hours.
Many of them are unable to go to
livery stable and pay 25 cents or so
cents for a place for their animals.
The result is, the farmers who would
like to take their own time in trans.
acting their business here. are COM
PEELED to get out of town as early as
possible"
The commissioners have the matter
under consideration, and probably
will take the matter up with the Com
mercial Club soon.

"Hattiesburg should be the cleanest
city in all Mississippi. It's manufac-
turing establishments are so located
as not to interfere with its beautifica-
ton; it's streets originally were laid
out with the view of having them
lined with trees; and its building lots
are of such a character as to make it
an easy matter to keep them free from
rubbish and debris of all kinds, and
in sanitary condition.
This is the opinion of DR.. Willis
Valley, state sanitary inspector, who
was in the city few hours this morn
ing, making an inspection of local
bakeries and barber shops.

Jackson, Miss, Feb. f0-The posi-
bilities of what may prove to be a pro-
lonSed deadlock between the Senate
and House Of the Mississippi legisla-
ture, which it may require weeks OF
work on the part of conference com
mittees to break, is being freely pre-
dicted, largely upon the fact that while
the House yesterday afternoon slashed
such insignificant items as that of a
negro pOrter's salary from S45 a
month to 81 day, the Senate added
$4,000 to the school appropriation
bill, after it came from the lower
house with an increase of $4,000 over
last year.

body, with Chairman Howerton, of
the appropriation committee, at the
lever, and when it stopped, salaries

ments of the state house had been cut
from SIS to $50 a month, and appro-
priations for clerical help made so
low that the services of MANY en-
ployes will, if the bill passes the Sen
ate. have to be dispensed with. Grip
ping, it is claimed, nearly every state

After the roll call on final passage
of the general appropriation bill, those
who had fought committee amend
ments seeking to cut salaries, sent us
written explanations of why they
voted mo- asserting in positive terms
that they believed the deep cuts into
salaries meant less efficiency in run

BURGLARS ROB SAFE
OF GROCERY STORE
GET OLD COINS FROM ONE; SEC
OND CONTAINING MUCH MONEY
NOT MOLESTED.

Selecting a time when the trains of
the Mississippi Central and the Gulf
& Ship Island railroads were thunder
ing into the G. & S. |. station, filling
the air with the noises of escaping
steam and rumbling cars, burglars
last night smashed one of the rear
windows in the building of the Hat
tiesburg Grocery Company, and af-
fecting an entrance in this way, rob-
bed one of the big safes in the offices.
A second safe, containing much money
and other valuable things, which was
locked, was not molested, so far as
the officers could learn today.
The county authorities. assisted by
the police, are making an investiga-
tion.
1t was shortly after 7:30 o'clock at
night, when the tracks leading into
the G. & S. /. station were filled with
trains, that switchman heard sus-
picious crash coming from the grocery
building. A couple of constables were
notified, and they hurried to the es-
tablishment. 1t is believed that the
intruders heard them coming and
made their escape through the front
of the store.
An investigation showed that a box
car standing on siding to the rear
of the store. had been mounted, and
that the window Immediately facing
the top of this, had been smashed.
The burglars entered the store. and
found one of the large safes unlocked.
They opened the outer door, and
broke open one of the inner ones.
There were some old gold coins in a
sack These were taken, but one was
found on the flood of the store this
morning, having been dropped. There
was nothing else of value in this safe.
The other safe was visited, but no
signs of an effort to open it by force
were in evidence.
Constable Cooper is at work on the
case, as well as some of the police.

An innocent looking guy-wiTe run
ming from one pole to another carried
a current of 1900 volts of electricity
and Henry C. Bergman of GAINESVILLE,
was killed when he grasped the wire
while standing on the corner cOnvers-
ing with friends. Brooms were used
to push Bergman from the wire. The
wire had slipped off the glass insulator
protecting it from the high voltage
wire on the pole and came in contact
with the main circuit. Radical chang
es in the GAINESVILLE electric wiring may
come as a result of the accident.
