DETAILS OF THE AFFAIR AT GREEN.
VILE.
GREENvILLE, March 23.-The
skirmlshing, which WAS alluded to
in the Tribune, as likely to occur
between the two booming compa-
mics on Flat River, has commenced.
The old company raised the gates
of tho dam at the ''six lakes" to
comply, it's officers state, with the
terms Of an injunction issued, by the
Circuit Court of this county against
that company. The new company
attributed different motive, name.
ly that of leaving the up river logs
without any water to run them,
The new company promptly closed
the gates. The old company Sent
officers who arrested the men at
the dam and again raised the gates,
assuring the new company at the
same time that if the dam was
again interfsred with it would be
Immediately destroyed.

ing purposes, have not tina season
"drawn" their ponds, as has hith-
erto been customary, during clog
running" times. On Saturday the
new company cut the gates at Cow
en- and also at the Underhill pond,
and it was expected that an attempt
would be made on the gates of the
ponds in this city on Saturday
hight; but fortunately no attempt
was made. The shutes are SO ar
ranged that logs may be run, but
the mill owners refuse to draw the
water and stop their mills, and they
say that should any attempt DO
made to interfere with their rights
by force, at Gowen on Satui day,
they will meet force with force.
The guards a, the ponds on Satur-
day night were armed. 1t is hoped
that all amicaLle adjustment may
be made.
The Latest-The Grand Rapids
Guards arrived here at six o'clock,
and are now awaiting orders. The
riot grew out of rivalry between
The old log running company of this
city and the new company recent
ly organized at Grand Haven for
running out the Flat River. The
new company try to drive ont logs,
and for that purpose are cutting out
the dams at Gowen. One dam is
destroyed, and it is reported that a
demonstration will be made in force
tonight. The new company's men
number about 100.

Serious Trouble Among the
Lumbermen.

GRAND RAPIDS, March 23.-There
has been some serious trouble at
Greenville, Montcalm county, be-
tween conflicting lumber interests.
1t is alleged that Wonderly & Co.,,
of this city, have endeavored to en-
force a monopoly. of the log driving
OH Flat River, which resulted in Il
free fight yesterday afternoon. 1t
is said 600 men were engaged in
the fight. The Grand Rapids
Guards are to leave here for Green
vile at half past one on special
train under orders from the Coy
srnor. Further particulars to night.
LATER FROM GRAND RAPIDS.
GRAND RAITDs, March 23.-Par.
ties from up the road tonight give
accounts IF the Greonville distur-
Dances, from which the situation
appears to bo thus: Friday after
noon gang of men employed by
the new booming company Oh Flat
River, in which Wonderly q Co.,
ofthis city, are prominent membera,
seized the dam at Cavwood's, five
miles above GreeDville, and cut
away the old booming company's
"shute." Saturday the same party
took forciblo possession CT Under
hills dam, one mile below Caywood
and destroyed all the gates and a
part of the dam. Eighteen ofthem
were arrested Saturday night and
confined at Greenville till this
morning, when they were released
on bail. A great number OF log
runners gathered at Greentille yes.
ierday in high state OF exaspcra-
tion-not so much directed toward
the detention OF the prisoners as
vengeance against the new com
pany for the acts above described
in trying to monopolize, as 10 al
legged, the log running On the Flat
River. Undorhill began rebuilding
his dam this afternoon, and Mt four
o'clock the excitement there had
considerably subsidized, no demon
strations against the Greenville
dams had been made at that hour,
when the latest dispatch was sent.

Last week Judge White resigned,

PINE is cut so rapidly in Michi-
gan, that many feel anxions for
the future supply. 1t is said
that an average cut of 100000
feet of logs clears the pine from
LOCO acres of land. At that rate
Michigan loses about 100000 acres
of pine every year. 1t does have a
fligh,tul look; bnt the cotton-woods
are making big head way, to take
