Lowden, told the sen ate campaign funds committee today that about 160.000 had been spent in furthering his can didacy for the republican presl- aeniiai nomination. The former gorernor of Illi nois said his receipts totalled f (4,700. His personal books showed he had contributed $12. 600 to advance his own cause, al ihough ha said Clarence T. Buck, acting as .his campaign manager, had informed him the contribution-was really 115,000. - This discrepancy would be .straightened, out, he declared when ha could examine bis ac counts. Lowden said the' great er part t)f the fund had been contributed . by the two old friendiw-Omer N. Custer ot Gales burg, Ills., and Robert D. Clark of l-os Angeles, a former resident-of Illinois. These two, with Buck, who Is former state sen ator of Illinois, had been attempt, log ro line, up delegates for him. "There Is a voluntary organiza tion In New York," Lowden con tinued. 'They did not even ask my consent. As you gentlemen know; I bare not been-active, nave not even 'made a political speech, though" I have been urged to do so." r"'' The witness said ba saw Buck paper sent out by the publisher club asking editors to agree to support Lowden editorially. Low den said he knew nothing about It. He told Bratton that he did not have an organisation In Neb raska and that he knew nothing about the contesting delegations In Mississippi and Louisiana. , "Did you stay out ot Indiana as a result ot any agreement with Senator Watson as to an ulti mate disposition of delegations at Kansas City?" asked Senator Barkley. "I don't know about that, yon will have to ask Senator Buck about that. I entered into no agreement." "Didn't you authorize any?" "No air." "You stayed out ot all states where they were favorite son candidates?" LUMBER HITS GOOD MARK (Continued rrom page One) ascending rapidly on a sharp convex curve or sooming on a concave angle to the depth of de spair and for that reason the recent antics have been neither surprising nor unexpected by the older heads In the business. Having at no time during the past year received prices that were adequate, the slump which was Quite pronounced In the water markets during March and early Aprn, very quickly, brought on a condition so serions that before the first ot this month many ot the big mills through out Oregon and Washington Were laying plans to shut down for In definite periods. This move be- Clark - was talking with Jchn Hastily, a church committee man. when Tyrrell left the pulpit where he had been preparing for the classes, walking to within five feet o( Clark, pulled a pistol from his pocket and fired. Warning those present "keep out of this or you'll get shot. too," he rushed to the door, wit nesses said and drove away In his automobile. After his arrest Tyrrell re fused to make a statement. Po lice were Informed that ClaTk had several- limes accused Tyrrell ct being a "home breaker."

Along with- this double cruise. Cullison agreed that his firm would furnish In detail the VPo ot timber, plats 'In 'colors walnh would designate the streams, bot tom lands, timber and character of the soil. . It was the general opinion ot the farmers appearing before the court that Edgar and Cullison should be granted the contract. "Results of the cruising com pleted by the company would justify the court in letting the contract to Edgar and Cullison and I do not believe the court will find It advisable to secure someone other than Edgsr and Cullison to do the work for less money," Roy Nelson, farmer ot the Keno district stated.

He knew nothing about Its finances, but said It had "modest" headquarters with one steno grapher whom he .had been told had volunteered her services. ' The presidential candidate told the committee that Buck could give details of' the financing of lha campaign, . Buck will be call ed later. i Senator McMaster, republican. South Dakota, said ha bad Tead that the 'Lowden manager In Sauth Dakota, had stated that he had expended only $124 In Low den's behalf, but the witness said he knew nothing of that. Some Workers bad been sent Into the field-.at different times, he said, but they were not paid. , Replying to Senator Brattdn, Lowden said that William II. Crawford once had been employ ed as publicity man with head quarters at the .Waldorf-Astoria' hotel In Nesv Tork City. "Those headquarters have been closed," be added. They were maintained by Mr.. Buck who can tell yon alt about lb Mr. Craw ford was employed no, I under- yards have, through their new policy ot buying hand-to-mouth. allowed their stocks to decrease to the point where on an aver age they are carrying only from one-third to one-half of what they formerly did. but few lumbermen thought that the retailers were apprehensive enough ot their own position to be keeping tab on production. Two weeks ago, immediately after tbe curtailment talk was first heard, buying for the domes tic cargo market began to In crease. As more mills announced their Intentions of making less lumber, the desire to get under cover was stimulated until today some Items cannot be placed at all and the general price level has advanced from $1 to $2 per thousand feet- So far the Cali fornia cargo market, which has for many months been the poor est the fir mills have had. Is leading all others in its strength. Low-grade boards and dimension have been bought up and on some of these Items prices have improved as much as 20 per cent, with the prospects good for fur ther gains, as the buyers are al ready more concerned over get ting delivery than they are in any small difference In price. Atlantic Business Better Atlantic coast cargo prices have also stiffened. Shipping space for the Atlantic coast has been more plentiful during the past week, and with the pros pects good for considerable out side tonnage being available for Intercoastal shipments before tbe end of another 80 days. It is pre dicted by some that freight rates will decline for late June and July, and as the carrying charge is reduced the mill base lumber prices will be accordingly ad vanced, giving the manufacturers an opportunity to get back some of the money the boat lines chip ped off ot them when freight rates were arbitrarily advanced while the lumber., market was weak and the mills in no posi tion to defend themselves. Export business while firm has nbt enjoyed the Improvement as yet that the domestic cargo Mar kets have. However, past lac ords show that tha foreign buy ers can be depended upon to takit about tha sama footage year al ter year and so far shipments fxr first of the month. One of the most gratifying features has been the shortening ot theydlsparity between prices for straight and mixed cars ot yard stock. - SMASH! ORPHEUS XOW PLAYIXO LAl'RA LA PLAXTE . . . In . . .
