Chief of Polico Gibson says that during his many years In office ho has never been confronted with a caso so mys terious as this ono. Chtof Gibson has been working day and night on tho problem and has followed out lead after lead to find each dwlndlo off to nothing.

Tho lumber cut in the United States during the calendar year 1909 was 44,585,000,000 feet, board measure, as against 33,224,000,000 feet in 1908, and 40,250,000,000 feet iu 1907. This was an increnso of 34.2 por cent over 1908, and 10.8 per cent over 1907. The output of lath and shingles during 1909 was 3,712,000, 000 and 14,945,000,000, respective ly. The incrcaso in tho production of lath in 1909 over 1908 was 24.3 por cent and over 1907 1.3 per cent, while tho corresponding increases v for shingles were 23.4 per cent and 20.4 per cent. This information appears in n preliminary comparative report cov ering 1909, 1908 and 1007, which was transmitted today to Consus Director Durnnd by Chiof Statisti cian William Jr. Stouart, under whoso supervision it wn$ propared by J. E. Wholchel, export special agent of tho division of manutac turos. In co-oporation with the for ost service of tho dopartmont of ag riculture, tho bureau of tho census ainiiinlly collects and publishes sta tistics pertaining to the group of lumber and timber industries. The substantial incrcaso ovor the two preceding yoan. was genoral, fow of tho individual stntes showing a docrensed cut. The futures for 1908 nnd 1007 we;o colleetod by mail, and, while including the commercial mills of tho country, did not .in many eases cover the small neighborhood mill'j whoso output was consumed lo ur.llv. The relatively large increase in tho number of mill reporting, for 1909, .togothor with tho increase in the out for that year, was due large ly to the fact that the field forco nf tho census bureau, which was ougag od in gnthoring statistics of all brniichod of manufacture throughout tho United Stntos, soeured returns' from prfiotioally every sawmill in operation during the whole or auv part of luOO, without regard to it-, size, mid iu this way there have been included many small mills not cov orod by the mail eensus iu the pre ceding years.
