MO I. AULA. Or- Aug. 2. Special.)
The first forest fire In this sec
tion this season tonight was run
ning through standing timber about
five miles east of this city, threat
ening two sawmills and at least one
farm with Its grain and buildings.
Other wheat fields on the edges of
the timber were believed safe to
night, following a hard day's fight
ing by several hundred men. many
of whom rushed to the scene from
this city In trucks and cars routed
over the logging railroads.
The blaze started on private
property near Cole's sawmill. The
cause was not determined. The mill
had not been running for several
days. The mill was believed safe.
The flames soon threatened
Slyter's sawmill. In the same gen
eral neighborhood. It was reported
that the mill was entirely sur
rounded by flames. Several families
In the camp near the mill moved
out today.
One donkey engine was reported
destroyed by the flames, but the
firefighters were hopeful that if
the wind did not shift the mill
might be saved.
The Chlndgren farm. In the
Meadowbrook section, reported to
day that the fire was threatening

that the chief danger had abated.

Secretary Hoover, who attended
the session of the road executives
at New York, saw Mr. Harding on
his return today, but said that no
immediate governmental steps were
io be expected. Other cabinet mem
bers who saw ' the president for
discussion of strike matters Indi
cated the feeling that claims of
railroad managements as to their
Inability to maintain transportation
would get a test during the next
few days. These officials left the
inference that if the strike demon
strated symptoms of dissolution, as
predicted by the carriers, the presi
dent might not move again.
It was again emphasised, how
ever, that the nation's necessity for
at least a minimum coal supply had
largely governed the president's ac

were in the spotlight today when
300 lumbermen attended the mid
year meeting of the West Coast
Lumbermen's association here. Al
bert Hermann, of the United States
forest products laboratory, situated
at the University of Wisconsin, ex
plained what is being done at the
special plant erected at the Wheeler

by the association. The k.'lns will
be put into- use within a week.
Heretofore all lumber on the Pa

taking up more time in production
and getting to market. The saving
in time and the improvement in the
lumber hoped for under the kiln
drying process may make a decided
change in present manufacturing
methods, the lumbermen agreed.

The west coast lumbermen,
through their association, are fur
thering the project of producing
carbon fuel from mill waste. It
was brought out at today's meeting
that the association s experimental
plant at Centralia, had shown that
each thousand feet of lumber pro
duced equals one unit of mill waste.
, Fuel Equals Coal.
A plant having 200 such units
day, which when briquetted with
water-proof binder, is equal to the
best grade of anthracite coal and
50 per cent better than the highes
grade bituminous. This fuel having
97 per cent pure carbon, 2 per cen
water and 1 .per cent ash. Labora
tory tests have been so successful
that the briquetting plant at Cen
tralia has been leased to produce
this fuel on a commercial scale.

pany K. Adjutant-General White

Salmon Run Very Light.

The salmon run Is very light here
yet in Tillamook bay. The fisher
men say they can get but a very few
salmon now.
mark by Gus Moser stirred up the
members and Instantly there was a
blaze of discussion.
Said Mr. Moser, drily "That is all
we . have ever contended.
"On the contrary, it upholds ex
actly what we have contonded,"
flared up President McCarthy. t "For
Klepper to remain as president of
the Portland club and yet not to
have official dealings with his play
ers and employes is Impossible. It
can't be done. That nfeans he will
go right on as he has been going,
and it is the purest camouflage to
say that he hasn't Jiad dealings with
players.
"I warn you that just as soon as
the evidence reaches Judge Landis
of the things that Klepper ' does
then the whole Portland Baseball
club will be declared ineligible and
this league will be in a great pre
dicament. You are simply playing
horse with yourselves."
"That's our lookout," retorted
Moser.
Putnam Puts In Oar.
"The Pacific Coast league has Just
as iriariy rights, in Portland as the
Portland club," shot back McCarthy.
"Thousands of dollars have been ex
nended In this case already and
thousands of dollars more will have
to be spent before it is threshed out.
Why, every meeting like this Is cost
ing every club owner money, and
yoA may be assured there will have
to be other meetings."
George Alfred Putnam, the rotund
San Francisco secretary, had to put
in his oar.
"I understand," said George Alfie,
"that Klepper is- trying to sell
Pitcher Walberg to some big league
club and that he makes noibones
of discussine- It with scouts, and
that he actually talked to oneof the
scouts by long distance telephone
from Portland to Los Angeles the
other night."
"Certainly. And that's one or tne
Internal affairs of our club," re
plied Moser. "Klepper has a right
under the La,nd1s interpretation oi
the Landis decision to conduct the
internal affairs of his club."
George Alfle Jolted.
"Huh," the hitherto silent Bill
Klepper shouted at Putnam, "you
wired me yourself trying to buy a
patcher the other day and I guess
that ' makes you ineligible too.
What's the matter with you?"
George- Alfle muttered something
about the long-distance telephone
matter having been "hearsay,
y' know," and retired In' blushing
confusion.
"What shall we do with this tele
gram from Judge Landis?" in
quired McCarthy.
'Move It be placed on me auu
made part of "the records," said
Moser. It was unanimously car
ried. So ended the attempt to oust
Bill Klepper as president of the
Portland baseball club. No effort
was made to force through another
resolution on the subject, for the
vote would have been four to four
and everybody knew it.
Then the meeting returned to tne
disposition of Bill Kenworthy. Pre
viously a motion by Charley Gra
ham of San Francisco had been
adopted directing the president to
telegraph Keoworthy and ask iim
if he were willing toi report to the
league.
Graham Dies Hard.
"Kenworthy would not be an
asset to tbe league under existing
conditions," said Cal Ewing. "The
best way out Is to declare him a
free agent. If he reports we would
have to carry him on salary. Fur
ther, I think we should give Port
land whatever money was received
from his sale If he were sold."
Charley Graham and W. J.
Steinert of Seattle died hard, but
the motion to make Kenworthy a
free agent prevailed. Even Presi
dent McCarthy didn't fight it, and
Lew Moreing of Sacramento sec
onded the motion. The only nega
tive vote was by Seattle.
The only condition to Kenworthy's
being declared a free agent is that
he shall first agree to report to the
coast league. There is no doubt that
therduke will do that. Nor Is there
any doubt that as soon as he is then
declared a free agent by President
McCarthy, he will sign a new con
tract with Portland. The Beavers
then can send him wherever they
desire him to play until he again
becomes eligible in this league,
which will be in 1924.
Right of Landis Not Recognised.
In fact. President McCarthy ex
pects Kenworthy to sign again with
Portland. He said after the meeting
that he could see no objectiem to
his doing so.
The meeting adjourned after
adopting a final resolution by the
Implicable Mr. Steinert of Seattle,
to this' effect; that the league can
go on record to accept, abide bv and
and enforce Judge Landis decision
of May 24 as interpreted by Judge
Landis' telegram of August 2."
Portland cast a negative vote
merely, Mr. Moser explained to have
the record show that Portland does
not recognize the right of Juds-e
Landis to place either Klepper or
tsrewster on tne ineligible list
Which ends it for the time being, at
least. .
Evans that such a move might
cause legal difficulties, but the sen
timent was in favor of the change.
It was stated that .the change will
save the city at least $30,000 and
will give even a larger supply of
water.
