Has Sawmill at Plummer, Plummer Pioneer; John C. Parker, vice president of the Donald Land and Lumber Co.,, of Bemidji, who banked a big lot of cedar poles, pulp wood and logs at this point this spring has been here most of this week attending to the necessary preliminaries for the starting of a sawmill to cut up the logs into lum- ber. The sawmill was brought here from Gully about ten days ago and set up here by its owner, Urcis LaBlanc, and on Thursday of this week saw- ing was commenced and first class lumber is now being turned out rap- idly by this mill. The men in charge of the mill are all experienced hands and the lumberis turned out in fine shape and is of a much bet- ter quality than is sometimes sold for No 1 in small towns. Mr. Parker says he has not yet decided whether the output of the mill this season will be sold in one lot to some dealer or retailed in small lots to con- sumers. Next year this company intends to have a much larger mill in operation at this point and to keep it running for several years to come. Well Pleased With Church Work. Rev. E. K. Copper of Brainerd, presiding elder of the Brainerd dis- trict of the M. E. church, passed through the city last evening on his way to Big Falls, where he will hold quarterly conference of the M. E. church at that place. Rev. Copper intends to return from Rig Falls Saturday morning and will remain in this city over Sunday, so he stated to the Pioneer representative. Rev. Copper expressed himself as well pleased with the advancement in Methodism In the north half of the state.

A. lodge acted as an ascort to the body and accompanied the casket to the train, the deceased having been a member in good standing in that order. Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Hawkins ac- companied the remains to Brainerd. The funeral will be held at Brainerd tomorrow, the deceased having been a resident of that city for a number of years. The death of Patrick Hawkins was a shock to his relatives and friends, as his demise was not expected, he having been an exceed- ingly strong and robust man. Work at Bagley Pit Finished. Crookston Journal: The G. N. gravel pit at Bagley which has been the scene of considerable work the past three months, was closed yes- terday and the steam shovel was removed to Wilkinson Pit on the Park Rapids line, where some neces- sary work is to be finished up. The entire line from here to Cass Lake has been thoroughly reballasted and put in first class condition. The work at the pit has been in charge of Conductor Steve Withey and he, with the crews employed, has put in some long days. Most of the train crews employed on the work have|j returned to the city and a big share of them will rest up for a short period before the fall rush begins. Wm. Lennon Will “Boost” Fair. William Lennon, the mayor of Kelliher, returned to his home last evening, after having spent yester- day in the city, looking after some business matters. Mr. Lennon stated to the Pioneer representative that he would assist in every possible way to promote the success of the fair which will be held in this city Sept. 26:27-28, and that he would be present at the fair and join with the old settlers and others in having a good time. The chief executive of the north- country metropolis was present at the county-city ball game yesterday afternoon, and fell into the “arms of the law,” the breach of the rules costing him 25 cents. “‘Both Sides” in Town. Harry Gahn of St. Paul, the editor of “Both Sides,” the official organ of the Minnesota Retail Liquor -Dealers’ association, arrived in the city last evening and will tarry for another day, looking after some busi- ness matters. Mr. Gahn was for two years stationed at Pine River, having been the founder of the Pine River Sen- tinel, and during Mr. Gahn's regime the Sentinel was a power in Cass county. He sold the paper to George Silk,a very worthy successor. Mr. Gahn’s paper, “Both Sides,” has a big circulation throughout the state. Suftering With Appendicitis. Word comes from Brainerd to the effect that Mike Kennedy, con- ductor on the M. & I. railway and well known in this city is lying in the hospital at Brainerd, suffering with an acute attack of appendicitis. Kennedy submitted to an opera- tion, which was performed Monday. Owing to the advanced stage of the disease, it is announced that there is small hope of the operation proving of any benefit to Kennedy, and his condition is such that small hope is entertained for his recovery; in fact, it is believed that he . will succumb. Commissioner Gunderson a ‘‘Booster.’ County Commissioner George Gunderson left last evening for his home, after having spent yesterday and the day previous in the city attending the meeting of the board of county commissioners.

No Developments in Strike of Teleg- raphers. Chicago, Aug. 22.—Strike leaders at the headquarters of the Telegraphers’ union declared that the contest had settled down to a matter of endurance, which, according to one official of the Telegraphers’ union, means a test of finances. Both companies have added to the number of men at work and claim to be making satisfactory prog- ress.

New York, Aug. 22.—A oar of the New York City Railway ecompany, which was being repaired on the fourth floor of the barn.of the Four- teenth street line, started on a queer rampage. It came suddenly in con- tact with the current that had been turned on for shifting cars to other tracks and ran off the end of the track through the brick walls and Into a six-story tenement house occu- pied by twenty-four families. The car poked its forward end sev- eral inches into the threeroom apart- ment of Rosarlo Caccamo, an Italian, living with his daughter and two sons on the fifth floor. A panic resulted in the tenement house, men, women and children rushing into the street and up to the roof. Nobody was hurt, however. Though the car tore a hole twelve feet high and seven feet wide in the thick walls the only damage it sus- tained was a badly battered platform. FORESTS UNUSUALLY DRY Many Fires Raging in Massachusetts Timber Lands. Boston, Aug. 22.—The unusually dry condition of the forests and wood- landa throughout the state caused by the almost entire absence of any co- plous rain during the past month has been responsible to a large extent for the great damage to Massachusetts forests by fires which have swept through Boutheastern Worcester coun- ty across the Cape Cod district and in Bristol and Plymouth counties. About 7,500 acres of woodland have already been destroyed and im several cases the flames have not been checked de- spite the fact that 2,600 men are en- gaged in fighting the fire. The most extensive fire is that now raging in the Douglas woods, one of the richest areas of timberland in the state. The flames there have already devastated 5,000 acres in Massachu- setts and have spread into Connectl- cut, where the damage is belleved to be about one-fifth as great. FOUND CONDITIONS BAD. American Commissioner Tells of Visit to Roumanla. Berlin, Aug. 22.—Congressman Will- fam S. Bennett of New York, a mem- ber of the United States Immigration commission, in an interview in the Tageblatt regarding the result of the commissioners’ investigation in the Near East, is quoted as saying that he found 30 per cent of the-popula- tion of Syria to be suffering from Egyptian eye disease. The situation of the Jews in Roumania, he added, was simply fearful. The Roumanian government gave Mr. Bennett every opportunity to study the situation. King Charles re- celved the commissloner and invited him to dinner. Mr. Bennett was also received in audience by the sultan of Turkey, who gave him a special mes- sage to Pre®i%ent Roosevelt, express- ing the sultan’s high personal esteem for the president. President WIIl Attend, Canton, 0.,-Aug. 22.—Announcement i3 made by the citizens’ committee baving charge of the final arrange- ments for the dedication of the- Mc- Kinley monument that the ceremonies positively will be held Sept. 30 and that President Roosevelt will be here, A fund of $10,000 is being raised by Canton citizens to entertain the city’s guests on that occasion.

L, Aug. 22.—The ar. rival of President Roosevelt at Oyster Bay on his return from Provincetown has been delayed by & dense fog over Long Island sound.

BECOMESWOREAUTE MORE ‘TROOPS CALLED FOR Brother of the Sultan, Recently Pro- claimed Ruler by the Rebels, Mareh- Ing on Casa Blanca With an Army of Fifteen Thousand Men, Paris, Aug. 22.—The Moroccan sit- uation is regarded here as having as- sumed a distinctly more serious as- pect. The ferment in the interior ot Morocco, the proclamation of Mulal Haflg, the sultan’s brother, as sultan by a sectlon of the rebels and the ap- pearance of a new Moorish army be- fore Casa Blanca have created the fear that the whole country will soon be ablaze with fanaticism. General Drude, commander of the French forces at Casa Blanca, has now prae- tically asked for reinforcements, point- ing out that his men are worn out with being constantly under arms, but especially insisting that he is losing the advantage gained by his successes because the small force at his disposal prevents him from following up his victory. The government appreciates the justice of the arguments and al- though orders to forward additional troops to Morocco had not been issued up to noon the government expected to decide on this step before night. More than 1,000 colonial infantry, cav- alry and troops of other arms have been mobilized at Oran and are ready to embark on board transports and other transports and warships are in readiness at Mediterranean ports to sail immediately for Morocco. Halfway Measures Condemned. Public sentiment in France is be- 'coming stronger against the present halfway measures, which, it is teared, will only lead to disaster. The papers insist that the world must support France if it is decided to send a mili- tary expedition to Fez, for in no other way, the newspapers claim, can the existing state of anarchy in Morocco be ended. The government, however, is resisting this pressure, desiring to keep within the bounds of the Alge- ciras convention and the reports that negotiations are on foot to secure an enlargement of the mandate ‘of the powers are emphatically denied. Nev- ertheless, even in official circles, it is admitted that something might hap- pen which would place an entirely new complexion on the situation and compel France, in the name of the powers, to chastize Morocco. Special = dispatches received here from Tangler say that Mulai Hafig, the brother of the sultan of Morocco, who recently was proclaimed sultan, is marching on Casa Blanca with Moorish reinforcements to the number of 15,000 men, recruited from the most fierce and fanatical tribesmen of the south of Morocco. SIX HUNDRED KILLED. Tribesmen Defeated in Battle With Moraccan Troops. Tangier, Aug. 22.—The sultan’s troops are reported to have again de- feated a great force of the Knass tribesmen, In whose territory Caid Sir Harry MacLean has been held captive. ;Six hundred Moors were killed and several of their villages were burned. AFTER ALL-NIGHT SESSION House of Commons Rejects Amend- ments to Irish Bill. London, Aug. 22.—With the Irish Nationalists very wide awake and nearly everybody else asleep after an all-night session the house of commons at 3:30 a. m. commenced the consid- eration of the house of lords amend- ments to the evicted tenmants bill. Practically all the changes introduced in the bill by the upper house were rejected and at 7:456 a. m. the weary legislators went home after appoint- ing a committee to confer with the lords and attempt to arrange the dif- ferences. EXPORT THEIR VICTIMS. “White Slave” Operators Very Active in Berlin, Berlin, Aug, 22—The mysterious disappearance of young women in Berlin is increasing to an alarming extent. No less than five such disap- pearances were repcrted to the po- lice Wednesday and a number of oth- ers occurred this week. It is surmised that “white slave” operators are at work and probably export their vie- tims, as most of the girls disappeared without leaving any trace of their whereabouts, Mr. Clsveland Able to Travel. ‘Whetfleld, N, H., Aug. 22.—Ex-Pres- ident Groyer Cleveland, who has been 111 during most of the summer.at his home in Princeton, N. J., is expected at hig summer home in Tamworth be- fore the close of the week. He hag 80 far recovered, it is stated, that he is now able to travel. Clemanceau M King Edward. 'Marienbad, Bohemia, Aug. 22.—M. Clemenceau, the French premier, who is- taking the oure at Karlsbad, lunched with King Edward here. . The premier also saw Sir Bdward Goshen, British ambassador to Austria-Hun- FE:Y’ who {3 in attendance on the SANCTIONED. BY USAGE. Henry C. Frick Would Excuse Past Offenses of Corporations. New York, Aug. 22.~Henry C. Frick, who came to town from his summer home.for a brief perfod to attend the meeting of the finance committes of the United States Steel corporation, made a statement regard- ing general conditions as he viewed them. He said: “I find nothing in underlying con- ditions to warrant the apparent great lack f 4 058 goner- 3 - ally Which AGw seems prevaremt. "1t there s anything to’ justify that feel- ing in trade conditions I do not see it. “I oan understand the vague but roal unsettlement of sentiment creat- ed by current agitation against cor- porations, but this i{s in a measure apart from real conditions and is capa- ble of - correction. I belleve myself, and always have, In .®> correction of abuses, whether corporate or individ- ual, but I feel that such care should be exercised in doing this that only the wrongdoer should suffer. “Now that the government is deter- mined to enforce laws hitherto dor- mant, would it not be well that ac- tlons of the past, sanctioned by cus- tom and usage at that time, should not be called into question under the new order of things, but that such ac- tivity as the government has shown should be taken as evidence of its in- tentions as to the future and serve as a fair warning to the managements of all, corporations.” GOVERNOR MAGOON’S REPORT Officlal Declares Cubans Sanitary Matters. Washington, Aug. 22.—The war de- partment has made public a long cabled report from Governor Magoon of Cuha, which startled the medical officers, showing as it does that in the short period- since the withdrawal of the American government of interven- tlon and the re-assumption of Ameri- can government by the Cuban army of pacification, there has been a woe- ful neglect of sanitary precautions and an almost complete disregard of the treaty ‘obligations under which the Palma . government was to keep the island healthy so that it should not be & source of infection to the United States and other countries. The governor’s report also discloses that the fever in this last outbreak has not been confined to the hospital corps, but has extended to other sol- dlers. He also indicates that the evil sanitary conditions cannot be cured this year, in spite of the most vigorous efforts by American authorities, in which it appears they received little support from native Cuban physicians. MARKET AGAIN. DEPRESSED Decline in Price of Many ef the Lead- ing Stocks. New York, Aug. 22.—Prices for stocks were again depressed in the first hour of trading on the stock market. many of the leading stocks, notably Amalgamated Copper, Brooklyn Rapid Transit, Union Pacific and Smelting, characterized the opening trading, in which the market fell following the example of the London market. A brisk demand by traders -carrled prices above the previous night’s close. This drew out a large offering of stocks, after which prices again sagged away until Brooklyn Transit, Union Pacific, Delaware and Hudson and Metropolitan Street Rallway were 2 points under the opening, the latter being then 40, and a number of others declined more than a point. Trading was then dull. Final prices were generally above the lowest prices of the day. NEUTRALITY OF NORWAY. Germany and Russia Reach Under- standing on Subject. London, Aug. 22,—It is learned in diplomatic circles that one of the principal questlons discussed by Em- peror Willlam and Emperor Nicholas during thelir recent meeting at Swine- munde was the neutrality of Norway. The subject was thoroughly gone over and an agreement was reached under which Germany and Russia undertake to regard Norway as neutral terrl- tory. This is in accordance with the desire of Great Britain, which has been heartily supporting Norway’s en- deavors to secure guarantees in this direction. Eniperor . Willlam also - intimated that Germeny would not seek to thwart the policy of Russia in carry- ing out her accord with France and Great Britain, HAS $3,000,000 DEPOSITS. Portland (Ore.)

LABOR AGENCIES SWAMPED Great Demand for Workmen Threugh- out the W Omaha, Neb,, Aug. 22.—The scarcity of labor in the West has reached an acute stage. It has resulted in oure talling so much coal mine work that the rriman lines, which have abundance of tuelin their own mines, bhave been compelleq to order .coal from Australla. They also have made contracts for 2,000 tons & week from Ilinois, paying $1 a ton and $7 a ton freight -to (arfield, . Utah: Japanese in some of the Unlon Pacific mines are drawing as high as $170 a month and it s feared wages will go still higher. n The Union Pacific {s urging coal dealers and private consumers to lay 18 as large supplies for the winter ay they can mecure in order to offset a famine. The railroad itself has stored up 200,000 tons: more than the ordinary for its own use.

Omaha, Aug. 22.—Absolutely no clue has yet been obtained here as to the perpetrators of the $260,000 mail sack robbery on the Burlington fast mail between Omaha and Denver. Although Burlington railroad officials in Denver, Omaha and Chicago deny that any rob- bery took place the postoffice officlals and postal inspectors at Omaha, the beadquarters of this postal division, acknowledge that the registered pouches had been stolen. Every in- spector and secret service man in the ‘West is working on the case. Chicago, Aug, 22.—The local police are working on a clue in connection with the robbery of $250,000 Sunday night on the Burlington road.

The police have the nmame of the man to whom it was addressed and claim that he is such a person as would be chosen as an Intermediary for thieves. There 1s nothing definite yet in the story. FIRES RAGING IN MICHIGAN Forest Blazes in Northern Peninsula Menace Townas. Marquette, Mich., Aug. 22.—Serious forest fires have been raging in the western end of the Upper Peninsula during the past week. Reports from various localities indicate that much timber has been burned over. A num- ber of logging camps have been de- stroyed with their equipment and there are fears that settlers have suf- fered serious loss. Several towns have been In such danger that only by hard work on the part of large forces of men have they been spared from at least partial de- struction. Little rain has fallen in some dis- tricts of the peninsula during recent weeks and with woods exceptionally dry the fires, once started, burn fiercely. It is hardly possible to ap- proximate losses, but judging from the extent of the areas swept the damage runs well into high figures. Berry pickers have been responsible for some of ths fires and locomotive sparks are blamed for others. CAUSE OF ACT NOT KNOWN Deposed Mayor of Louisville, Ky., Ends His Life. Loulsville, Ky., Aug. 22.—Paul C. Barth, for a year and a half mayor of Louisville and ousted recently by a decislon of the court of appeals, shot and killed himself in his private office at the headquarters of the Utica Lime company, of which he was gen- eral manager. The cause of suicide {8 unknown. Since the ousting of Mr. Barth’s ad- ministration by mandate of the court of appeals two months ago the acts of the officials during his term have been subjected to severe scrutiny by the officials who came in with Mayor- Bingham, appointed by Governor Beckham. Nothing was found that reflected any discredit on Mr. Barth personally, but the method of conduct- ing some of the city Institutions had been criticised both in officlal reports and in the press. Mr. Barth was sen- sitive to criticlsm and his friends at times remarked that the condition of affairs seemed to worry him. BRIEF BITS OF NEWS.
