A BIG LUMBER COMBINE
Mill-Owners in Oregon and
Washington Included.
THE CESTUAL LUMBER COMPANY
One of It. Important Mo.. Will
to Kp tip the 1'rlee of
All Material. .
Be
8an Franolsoo, Sept. 9 The Cliron'
icle any a that one of the irreatest lum
ber combines cvt r kuown has just been
formed. It include Dearly all the big
mill-owners in Oregon and Washing.
ton. Tuesday , the Central Lumber
Company filed articloa of incorporation
with the county clerk, naming the
capital stock of the concern as 1 0,000,
of which amount $1,900 only had been
subscribed. The directors of the incor
poration are:
Clarence A. Thayer, Chan. C. Ste
venson, jr., .Newton H. Hickman,
t'hag. L. Cron, John M. Rhodes, James
Webster and John Masterson.
The movement to establish a pine
lumber trust has been on foot the past
two years, but it has been delayed by
the fact that some mill-owners have
held back. It was not because manu
facturers did not realize the importance
of the step, but it was hard to induce
any one to take the initiative.
The Victoria and Vancouver mills
have been shipping into San Francisco
and other pans of the state, according
to lumbermen, for less than the cost of
manufacture on the American side.
That this statement is not exaggerated
is evidenced by the fact that some of
the officers doing business in this oity
have been compelled to close down
their mills and purchase from foreign
owners.
If the new combine is a success it
will be far-reaching in its operations.
Not only is it intended to fight the
mills -of British Columbia on the coast,
bnt the trust will roach out for foreign
trade, of which at present the Ameri
can manufacturers have a small sh ire.
It is argued that there is big field for
this trade, which only requires capital
and energy to develop into a source of
immense profit
The board of directors, with which
the Central Lumber Company has in
corporated, is not a representative one,
and it is not probable that they will
oconpy office very long. The combine
has already absorbed snob well-known
firms as:
The Pine Lumber Company, Pope &
Talbot, Golden date Lumber Com
pany, Wilson Bros., Bardine Mill
Company, W. J. Adams, Gray's Har
bor Commercial Company, Preston &
MoKinnon, E. K. Wojd Lumber Com'
pany, S. E. Slade Company, Benton,
Holmes & Company, Simpson Lumber
Company, California Lumber Com
pany, and a number of others.
If the plans of the combine have
been fully formulated, the managers
are not ready to make them public. E.
J. Holt, of the Simpson Lumber Com
pany, and D. H. Bibb, of the Oolden
Gate Company, have had the matter in
hand, and both have been working
with untiring zeal. Their aim is to
get every mill-owner of any protni
nence on the coast into the combine,
and until that is accomplished it is
said that nothing further will be done.
Be this as it may, the fact remains
that within the Last few days there has
been an advance in prices, and it is
predicted another rise may be expected
within a short time, as per agreement
of owners.
D. H. Bibb, who was seen this even'
ing, said that to pablish anything oon
nerning the workings of the combina
tion would be premature. He admitted
that the lumber market had been in
depressed condition for the past three
years, and that it was time the mill
owners took steps for their own proteo
tion. He refused to talk about the fu
ture of the concern, saying that to do
so would injure its plans.
It is asserted that for the past three
years the lumber fraternity of the Pa
cifio coast has been losing annually i
round 11,000,000. The milling en
paoity during that time is said to have
been between 1,000,000,000 and 1,200,
000,000 feet of lumber yearly, while
the demand, including off -coast car
goes, has never exceeded 400,000,000
feet a year. To make the situation more
distressing, the Viotoria and Van
couver mills have acapaoity of between
200,000,000 and 800,000,000 feet a
year, and they come in direct compe
tition with American mills, cutting
under them in price.
In Southern California there has
been a building boom of late, but, ac
cording to Mr. Bibb, the bulk of ma
terial snipped to Southern ports has
come form British Columbia.
Une ol the most important moves
whioh the trust will make will be to
keep up the price of material. How
they can do this in the face of snoh
strong competition from British Co
lumbia mills is one of the secrets of
the combine.
Eieta's Chance. Are Slim.
New York, Sept. 9. A special to the
World from Guatemala says President
Barrios, being interviewed regarding
the circular letter sent by Antonio
Ezeta from San Francisco, to various
presidents of Central American repub
lics, advising them that he soon will
take an aotive part in Salvadorean
affairs, said:
"I do not believe Ezeta will be able
to accomplish anything, as he is hated
in Salvador. Guatemala will follow
her policy, which is not to interfere
with her sister republic's affairs, but
will take energetio measures to avoid
invasion of Guatemala's frontiers. I
believe Ezeta will be unable to head
revolution."
ABOUT THE CROPS.
California'. Frobabl. Vintage of Sweet
Wine. This Year.
San Francisco, Sept. 9. Deputy In
ternal Revenue Collector Loupe has re
turned from bis trip to Fresno, where
he was engaged in surveying the
brandy stills and estimating the prob
able vintage of sweot wines for the
coming year.
In many respects the trip was a dis
appointment. It was thought that the
output this year would be much larger
than 1894. The preliminary reports
and announcements were of a very
promising nature, and from the figures
submitted it was estimated that the
crop would exceed that of last year by
at least one-third. When Mr. Loupe
went to Fresno he was surprised to
learn that the grape crop had been con'
siaerably damaged by a warm wave
which struck that section of the coun
try in Angust Its effects were pro
nounced at Minturn, a small town,
where in several instances, . half the
grape crop was destroyed by the sud
den heat, which bereft the fruit of its
sap. .
"I surveyed 800 stills," said Loupe,
and inspected twenty-two sweet
wineries. At present 100 tons of
grapes are being daily pressed at Fresno
by the Wine Growers' Association,
and something like ninety tons a day
by the Bartons. With the exception
ot damage done by the warm wave
everything looks promising in that sec
tion of the country. Owing to the re
d notion of the sweet wine output there
will not be as large a quantity of
brandy distilled as was anticipate.!. A
large amount of grapes formerly used
for making raisins is being used for
wine this year. There is plenty of
work for white men in the vineyards.
but they do not seem to want it, and
the growers are forced to employ Chi
nese." '

INDEPENDENT INQUIRY.
Thla Govern in en t's XnTeatlgmtlon of the
Ka Cheng Massacre..
Washington, Sept 9. It has been
authoritatively announced that the
United States government has decided
to enter forthwith upon an independent
investigation of the Ka Cheng riots.
As first arranged, the inquiry was to
have been made in co-operation with
England. ; " .
The change is occasioned partly by
the fact that the British consul at
Chung Khing, who is to conduct the
investigation on behalf of his govern
ment, has been detained at his post
and will not be able to begin the in
quiry for a month or more. -
China is expected to lend her support
to the American inquiry to the extent
of supplying an escort She will prob'
ably furnish an offloial to co-operate
with the American investigator, as in
the Cheng Tu investigation. The in
vestigation is expected to be made by
some of the officials now on the Chi
nesa coast it win probably take a
month to reaoh Ku Cheng, the capital
of the interior province of Se Chuen
some 1,500 miles from the nearest
ocean port ;
Suit Against the Gumry Estate.
Denver, Sept 7. Suit was begun in
the United States district court by
Joseph Munat, who was seriously in
jured in the Gumry hotel boiler explo
sion, against the International Trust
Company, administrator of the estate
of Peter Gumry, for f 15,000 damages
and $1,000 for doctors' bills and other
expenses. The complaint alleges that
the boiler was unsafe, and the engineer
incompetent-
' -. Foreign Competition Too Great.
. Warren, O., Sept 7. Charles Bray,
manager of the Beaver tiuplate mills
at Lisbon, 0., said today it would be
impossilbe much longer for the tin-
plate-makers in this country to com
pete with foreign manufacturers. The
recent rise in the price of steel billets,
he said, would increase the oost of
plates to a point where competition
would be impossible, and It wonld be
neocegary to olof the mill.
AN ANARCHIST'S WORK
He Intended to Blow Up the
Rothschild Bank.
TRIED TO EXPLODE A BOMB
Seeing Ha Wa. Observed, He Threw
Away th. Bomb Before He
Could Ignite It.
Paris, Sept. 7. M. Rothschild's
banking bouse was the scene today of
another anarchistic attempt. At 8:20
o'clock, a man entered the bank from
the Rue La Fitte vestibule. A detec
tive on guard saw the stranger trying
to light the fuse of a bomb with a cig
arette. The ashes on the cigarette pre
vented the ready ignition of the fuse,
and the man, seeing he was observed,
threw the bomb upon the carpeted
floor. The weapon did not explode.
The man was arrested. At the police
office he boldly avowed himself an an
archist
Aocording to another account, when
the man was arrested, he was ascend
ing the first staircase leading to the
banking office, and had lighted a
match. When be saw he had been de
tected, he threw the bomb to the ground
and ran out into the street, pursued
by the bank detective. He made a des
perate attempt to use a razor before he
was overpowered by the detective and
a policeman who had oome to his as
sistance. Police officers believe, from the ap
pearance of the culprit, that he is a
brother of Pawels, who perpetrated the
Madeline outrage. He is about 83
years of age, wears a short mustache,
has a sullen stare end is very pale. Ha
has a way of frequently clenching his
fists. When taken to the prefecture,
he refused to give his name or occupa
tion. He was dressed in dark clothes.
and wore a shirt with red stripes. The
bomb was made of a half-pound cocoa
tin, tied with a string and wound
about with wire. ; A round hole, a
quarter of an inch in size, was in the
side of the box, and from this fell a
whitish powder.
At the police office the man was ex
amined by Inspector Camette, acting
in the absence of Commissioner G uerin.
He obstinately refused to talk, and was
taken to the central prison. There he
became more commnnicative, and
openly professed anarchistic theories,
declaring he intended the bomb as an
anarchistic demonstration.
The recent explosive letter received
at the bank, whioh cost Alphonse de
Rothschild's confidential clerk an eye,
the man said, was only a prelude to
today's attempt, and ho expected it to
have a salutary effect -The man told
Commissioner Guerin he made the
bomb himself. He expressed regret
that he had not taken enough precau
tions to ensure the explosion. He had
tried to light the fuse, with a cigarette,
but the ashes upon the latter inter
fered. The arrival of the detective
had compelled him to throw the bomb
hastily, and by that act he bad not ex
ported to explode it He said the bomb
oontained chloride of potassium. He
added:
"However, you are welcome to open
it and satisfy yourself on that point"
He spoke clearly and in a decided
tone. . He will be examined in detail
tomorrow. : The man was arrested by a
policeman named Roger. The bomb
has been taken to the laboratory to be
examined.' '.
The culprit was miserably dressed,
and a razor and brush were found upon
him, so it is supposed he is a . barber's
assistant He refused to give any pre
text for the attempted outrage. His -family
lived a long timeat Montmarte,
where aotive inquiries are proceeding.
Upon being further examined, he
said the bomb was composed of chlor
ide of potassium and blasting powder,
and oontained no projectile. . His act,
he said, was a protest against the pro.
ceedings of the bankers. - He had trav-
eled throughout France, never remain
ing long in the same place, in order
not to awaken suspioion. He professes
a contempt for work, since everyone
lives at the expense of society.
The news of the outrage spread rap
idly in Paris, and many fear that it
portends a renewal of an aotive anar
chistic campaign.
A Minister Charged With Murder.
Danville, Ind., Sept 7. Rev. Will
iam Hinshaw was arraigued in the
court yesterday charged with the mur
der of his wife at Belleville on the
night of Jannary 12. As the defend
ant acoompanied by his family was
brought into court great excitement
prevailed and mutteringa of "There
goes a coward" and kindred expres
sions of hatred were heard. . The de
fendant's counsel filed a motion to
quash the indictment whioh was over
ruled by Judge Hadley. He then en
tered a plea of not guilty. The day
was consumed in the attempt to secure
a jury.
The Hinshaw homicide was the most
sensational in the oriminal history of
the state. The accused was pastor of
the leading M. E. church at Belleville
and oonneoted with the wealthiest
family in the city and is accused of
murdering his wife because of an at
tachent for Allie Ferre, the wealthiest
and prettiest girl in the vicinity. His
accuser is Detective Webster, of In
dianapolis, who worked for the $4,000
reward offered for the detection of the
murderer.
Increased Immigration.
London, Sept 8. The Chronicle
comments on the increase of immigra
tion to America as pointing to another
trade boom there. It is certain if
there is an industrial revival there,
there wilt be no mors tariff tinkerinz.
