KICK AGAINST CANADA.
LuMBHRMEN PROTEST AGAINST
CANADIAN IMPOR ATOMS.

A National Meeting to Discuss the
Free Admission OF the Product of
Canadian Forests Into the United
States-Is VIII Probably Be- Held in
Atlenta-The Effect OF the Free I'm
portetions.
An important movement Is on foot
among the American lumbermen, both
north and south, 10 take steps to prevent
Ihe present heavy importation of Canadian
lumber into this country free of duty.
A meeting will probably be called In At =
Ianta sometime next month OF the leading
lumbermen throughout the whole country
10 take united action upon the question and
devise means of bringing the question
prominently before congress.
The last congress reduced the duty on
lumber and removed the duty altogether on
logs RATED into this country from over the
Canadian border. In 1890 80. 900, 900 feet Of
logs were RATED from Canada to tina Unite d
States aud this year 60,0e0 900, ali free of
duty.
WHAT THE STATISTICS SHOW.
Statistics show that the Canadian i'm
ports In 1891 of sawed boards, planks
and deals increased l6l. 581. 100 feet;

Americans with Canadians interests were
largely instrumental In SECURING a reduce
too Of duties Owning timber on the Cana
dian side they raft large quantities OF logs
to the Michigan mills for manufacture.
The Canadian lumber comes in competi-
tion with the coarser grades of American
lumber, which tends greatly to reduce the
prica. The northcrn lumber, hemlock and
Norway pine, chiefly feels the effect Of the
competition, but southern yellow pine Is
also affected by 10 to a considerable extent.
THE ETFEcr ON YELLOW PINE.
It is estimated that the present free adj
mission of Canadian timber will affect the
price of yellow pine to the extent OF 81 per
1000 feet. This would mean bankruptcy to
large number of the yellow pine manu-
lecturers, and to 80 per cent, it is said, OF
the northern manufacturers.
w. B. 5tillwell, one Of the largest lumber
exporters in this section, was seen yesterday
by MORNING News reporter with regard
TO this matter. Mr.. Stillwell said he did
not consider the situation the least exag-
gerated and that fs Is a vital question to
the lumber manufacturers south as well az
north.
AN INJUSTICE TO LUMBERMEN.
de thinks great injustice was done the
american lumbermen in the renewal OF the
duties upon Canadian logs and the reduc'
Ton OF duties upon manufactured lumber.
ne Is heartily in favor of the proposed
meeting, and considers it the best plan OF
bringing the matter prominently to the
attention Of congress. The convention will
pe a national one, and will be composed Of
mmoermen from all over the country.
Atlanta has been suggested as the place Of
noiolng the meeting, because more northern
IumDermen could be induced to come south
az this season Of the year than southern
nmhermen could be gotten to go north.

the Savannah, Americus and Montgomery

In Baltimore the money to pay the January
coupons on the bonds OF that road. This
announcement, with the listing OF the bonds
on thu New York Stock Exchange, and the
running of regular schedules into Mont

quite an active demand for the Savannah,

vailing prices. Parties interested In these
securities look for considerable improve

heavy payments on account of construction
