1t is quite probable that the cleo

ture status and duties are now under
consideration by the President and
secretary Hughes, who desire his re-
tention in Cuba, and by Secretary
weeKs' who is considering the Sc
lection of his successor as head of
thes military department of justice.
During Gen. Crowderfs long absence
from this city Col. John A Hull has
Deen acting as Judge advocate gem
eral and Is mentioned as his possible
successor in that office.
Retirement fn April.
Gen. Crowder's latest four-year de-
tail as Judge advocate general VIII.
expire February Is, but he will not
reach the statutory age for compul-
sorry retirement until April II, nearly
two months later. Under the law. IL
he Is retired while serving as Judge
advocate general with the ex-officio
grade of major general, he will re-
tain that grade on the retired list.
In the event, however, that he does
NOT hold that staff office at the time
or his retirement he will. be retired
as colonel, which is the regular
grade he holds In. the Judge advocate
generais department. Counting his
Iour years at the Military Academy,
Cen. Crowder has served over forty
fo HNe years IN the Army and is eligible
TOT refirement at any time on his
own application with the Presidents
approval. under provisions Of the
service retirement clause.
Rcappointment Unlikely.
Because of the brief period Of ac-
tive military service remaining to
Cen. Crowder it is practically settled
that he will not be reappofnted Judge
advocate general on the expiration OF
mis- present term, February Is. At
the same time, TO prevent his statu-
tory retirement for age in a reduced
grade In April next, it is planned
that he shall be retired on hts own
application in the grade of major
general before his present detail ex-
pres. No date has been fixed, as
far as known, but 1t probably will
be early in February. A bill is mend
ing In Congress to authorize Gen.
Crowder's retirement in the grade Of
lieutenant general in special recoe-
nluon OF his valuable services in or
ganizing and conducting the. draft
for the world war. 1t is strongly
intimated at the State Department
that Gen. Crowder will continue his
speciai duties in Cuba so long as the
president deems il desirable for him
TO remain there, regardless Of wheth-
er he remains on the active list of
the Army or not. Retired officers
frequently are assigned to active
duty, even of non-military charac-
ter, when the President deems such
service essential to the interest of
the government. 1t is recalled that,
both Gen. Wood, governor general OF
the philippines, and Col Morrow.

BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PITTSBURGH, January with
the arrival Of the new year comes
the story OF "fresh country egg pill
fering.
For weeks post Office inspectors
have been puzzled by the substt-
tuition OF cold storage eggs for
fresh country eggs shipped by
parcel post from Clarion county
to Erie, Pa, and Wheeling, w. Va.
The first complaint was made to
Inspector George v. Craighead Of
Pittsburgh by the purchasers OF
the fresh country eggs" who de-
clared the eggs were "oH color"
An investigation showed that the
egg containers had been tampered
with. Other fresh eggs were
shipped, but when they reached
their destination there was an un-
nistakable staleness about them,
Inspector Craighead said.
Today Orton z. Eastman, a rail-
way mall clerk on the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad between Kane
and Butler. Pa. is being held
charged with tampering with the
egg shipments. He will be given
a hearing before the United States

nous Totals.

American Railway Association reports
that more cars were loaded with
agricultural products during the year
1892 than ever before in the history
of the railroads.

cent over 1921. when such shipments
were the heaviest: on record. There
also was an increase In 1892 in the
number of cars loaded with grain and
grain products OF approximately 80
per cent over 1920. 4
For the fifty weeks this year COM
plete reports show 2, S70,e25 cars load
ed with grain and grain products.
This was an increase OF 144,7S0 cars,
compared with the same period last
year, and an increase of 5S5.634 cars
over the corresponding period in 1920.
A new record in the number or
cars loaded with all commodities ex-
cept coal, was also made in 1897,
when there was an increase OF more
than Is per cent over 1921 and nearly
3 per cent over 1890. Loading of all
commodities other than coal amount
ed to 35.074,0s0 cars from January 1
an Increase Of 4.ss0,720 cars COM
pared with, the corresponding, period
last year and an increase OF s3s.1s8
cars compared with the correspond
ing period in 1920. II,
Notwithstanding the dve-months'
coal strike, coal production in 1929
nearly equals that OF last year.
The railroads in 1922 also moved
more merchandise and miscellaneous
freight, which includes manufactured
products, than ever before in history,
there having been an increase Of ap-
proximately Ia per cent in the num-
Der OF cars loaded in 1922, over 1921
and approximately per cent over
heaviest In the history Of the rail-
roads.
Tentative reports show that loading
OF forest products in 1929 consider
ably surpassed the total for last
year, but was slightly below that
for 1920.
