NEW COMBINE 1S POWERFUL More Details of Big Lum- ber Syndicate, NEW FACTOR IN COMPANY In Addition to Frederick Weyerhaeu- ser, the “Lumber King of the Con- tinent,” and Other Powerful Inter- ests T. B. Walker of Minneapolis Also Is Interested—Chicago to Be Sole Selling Headquarters. Chicago, Nov. 28.—Chicago is to be- gome the sole selling headquarters of the new lumber combination and Ed- ward Hines is to be president of the syndicate. ‘While figures publicly stated have fixed the combination as a $20,000,000 affair competing lumber interests can see no limit to its capitalization, but at the same time they expressed no fear of it attempting to restrain trade by fixing prices. Frederick Weyer- haeuser, “the lumber king of the con- tinent,” Mr. Hines and others direct- ly concerned vanished from Chicago and it was believed they had gone to the home of Mr. Weyehaeuser at St. Paul. It is believed they are com- pleting the details of the combina- tion. A new capitalist named in the ven- ture was T. B. Walker, the largest in- dividual owner of “standing” white pine in the world. Mr. Weyerhaeuser and Mr. Walker, it is said, have made previous attempts to arrive at a busi- ness understanding. Mr. Walker has played a “silent game” in the lumber FREDERICK WEYERHAEUSER. trade, tying up every dollar available in the standing timber and not sell- Ing often, Lumber interests have long suspected him of planning to “corner” the white pine market. The new combination not only con- trols the key to the white pine situa- tion, but it also has a large voice in the hemlock, yellow, Southern and Western pine flelds. Mr. Weyer- haeuser controls the supply of Missis- sippl. Cloquet, Minn,, is the center of pro- duction of white pine and the con- trolling elements there are Mr. ‘Weyerhaeuser, the Northern Lumber compaity, Cloquet Lumber company and the Johnson-Wentworth Lumber company—which also came into the new combination with the Cooke & O'Brien people. The Cloquet concerns have been manufacturing all their cuttings of timber into lumber and doing husi- ness with the Eastern Lumber com- pany, a wealthy corporation at North Tonawanda, N. Y., and the Edward Hines Lumber company in Chicago. When the finishing touches are put to the new combination all lumber will be sold out of Chicago.
