TARIFF FIGHT ON
LUMBER WAS FAKE
(By John E. Lathrop.)
Washington. The fight over the
lumber schedule having ended, a
member of the "lumber lobby" who
has been here since the tariff discus
sion began has admitted that it was
largely a "tempest In a teapot," so
far as the duty on rough lumber was
concerned. The real essence of the
stiff fight put up by the lumber In
terests on this schedule was Inspired
by fear that the demand for free
lumber would be bo strong that both
rough and dressed grades would be
placed on the free list.
"We are satisfied with the out
OOBJM of the lumber schedule In the
bill as It emerged from the confer
ence committee," he said. "We are
not hurt at all, and will continue to
command the market as we have in
the past."
The real concern of the lumber
men was over the duties on dressed
grades, as little Canadian rough lum
ber Is shipped any distance from the
Canadian border, owing to the poor
economy of paying freight on the
shavings which are cut off when the
lumber Is dressed.
Lumbermen Wrote the Rates.
It Is known that the lumbermen's
committee personally fixed the rates
on dressed lumber. This was done
at a meeting at the Willard hotel, the
members of which were told by Mr.
Aldrkh to figure out what they ab
solutely needed to give them com
mand of the market and Insure that
they would not be Injured by Canadian
competition. This meeting finally
worked out the schedule of dressed
rates and handed it in, and it was
adopted without change, not only by
the senate, but also by the conference
eommlttee.
The Dressed Lumber Schedule,
So that the wide difference be
tween the rates on lumber dressed on
one and that dressed on four sides
really Is archaic, old fashioned and
based on planing methods obsolete
years ago. These rates are:
Planed on one side, $1.75 per thou
sand, or 50 cents morfi than duty
on rough.
Planed two sides, or planed one
side and tongucd and grooved, $2 per
thousand, or 75 cents more than duty
'n r.ugh.
Planed four sides, 12.75, or $1.50
S 1 . 1 2 Va more than duty on rough.
Planned four sides, $2 75, or $1.50
more than du'.y on rough.
Practically no rough lumber en
ters eastern markets. In the yards
here rough lumber brings the same
as planed. A lumber dealer explain
ed this by saying:
Hand Planing All Gone Xow.
"Of what use is rough lumber In
these days to the builder? No car
penter finishes his lumber any more.
The day of the man-pushed plane has
gone far into the past. Then, again,
to ship rough lumber means freight
on the shavings. That doesn't pay.
So the trade that supplies this coun
try peels off those waste shavings,
saves the freight on them, and the
builder gets his lumber ready for the
joiner, and uses a plane very seldom.
It is a day of millwork. The carpen
ter of the old time belongs to a muse
um nowadays."
It is the general view here that the
tlmbermen of this country will not ba
affected by the changes In the lum
ber duties.

CHORUS GIRLS MEET
FOR CHICAGO CONVENTION
Chicago, Aug. 10. Casual Inspec
tion of the registers of leading hos
telrles of the Wrlndy City reveals the
presence today of no less than a
score of Pittsburg men, presumably
millionaires.

a coincidence that the Smoky City

the same day that the National Asso
ciation of Chorus Girls convened at
the Saratoga hotel. Such, however,
Is the fact.
The session of the corpyhees will
occupy four days. Lobsters, automo
biles, diamonds, costumes and lin
gerie are among the subjects to be
considered, "How to tell whether a
stagedoor Johnny Is a millionaire or
a ribbon clerk," Is the subject of a
learned paper by an authority.
It Is alleged that the hotel where
the delegates are meeting has appeal
ed to headquarters for a force of po
licemen to prevent rioting among tho
would-be male guests who are
swarming into the lobby, demnndlng
accommodations.
