The extent of the shutdown is said to fully Justify pre dictions of last week that 150,000.000 feet of lumber would be represented In decreased production the first 10 days of July. The effectiveness of this tendency to hold production parallel to market de mand Is shown In the analysis of last 1 week's trade barometer Issued by the West Coast Lumbermen's association, where, at 88 Identical mills, production decreased 6,554,061 feet, as compared with the production of the prvlous week.

Not a single Jitney is running in Den ver. 1". W. Hild, who Is now vice-president and general manager of the Den ver Tramways company, explained this morning how it was that what he termed the "Jitney menace" has been forestalled by the Denver city council. Mr. Hild formerly was general man ager of the Portland Railway, Light & Power company, and Is back In Port land for a few days to look after some private business. "The Denver Tramways company has made no fight against the Jitneys," said Mr. Hild. "It was not necessary. No regulatory treasures were attempt ed In the way of payment of license fees, requirement of bond, guarantee of seats for passengers or any of those things. But when the Jitneys were faced with the requirement that they furnish regular service like the street car company, they went out of busi ness. "After the franchise ordinance was passed, they operated possibly for one day." Mr. Hild said bulsness in general Is fairly booming in Denver, and that his company Is earning good returns on the Investment. "Denver people have made It very pleasant for me and the Portland men who are now with me In the tramways company." continued Mr. Hild. Mr. Hild expects to remain in Port land only long enough to conclude his business.

In discussing the situation Mr. Babcock said: "The outlook for fall business 1m en couraglng. Unless present' indications are upset by some extraordinary de velopment the west coast mills will be called upon to fill orders for trans continental rail delivery somewhat in excess of normal."
