A CLERICAL ERROR
What MT. 8. Z. Faunce Says About the Re-
cent G. A. X. Election.


Mr.. 8. E. Faunce, who was one Of the candi-
dates for the Office of department commando,
at the recent election Of the Department Of the
Potomac. G. A. R., was seen by STAR reporte,
late this afternoon and asked whether he had
anything to say as to the alleged troubles
at the encampment meeting last night. Mr..
Faunce said he did not care to be quoted in the
matter at all, as. in his opinion. the fights OF
the Grand Army ought not to be settled IN the
newspapers. He denied that there wers any
charges of fraud or ballot box stuffing at the
election and said that the whole difficulty arose
from a clei ical error.
According to Mr.. Fsunce's friends the total
number OF members present at the election
was 294 Of this number nine did not vote.
rive ballots were thrown out on account of in
iormality. The total vote for Dins-
more and Faunce was $40, making 276
In all This left ten ballots unaccounted for
ana an effort was made last night to account
ior them. They say that there waD no motion
introduced to reconsider the recent elec ton and
SO lar from any charge being made that there
were more votes cast than there we're
names on the tally sheet, as was stated this
morning, they say the only difficulty arose
from the fact that there were not enough votes
counted. No attempt will be made to
contest the election. The statement that
there was considerable surprise owing
TO the fact that the officers we're not installed
last night as had been expected. was erroneous,
as II Is the rule not to install officers until the
last night OF the encampment. There is no
doubt but that Mr.. Dinsmore will be installed
all right.

CANADIAN DEPREDArIoNS
Millions Of Feet OF Valuable Pine Timber
Cut and Carried Away.

Some startling revelations in regard to depre
dations made upon the American forests by
Canadians will in . few days be brough,
to the attention Of Congress. Severs
months ago stories were brought to Land
Commissioner Carter relative to the wholesale
plumber by Canadians Of the pine forests in
Minnesota along the Canadian frontier.
He at once ordered an investigation to be
made of the truth of these statements and the
facts elected have been incorporated in q re-
port which will shortly be sent to Congress.
II was learned that millions of feet OF valu-
able pine timber has been cut on American
soil and then foated in the creeks
to Rnney river and Rainey lake,
these bodies of water forming a portion
OF the northern boundary of Minnesota. and in
this way to the Canadian side where mills are
in operation engaged in the manufacture of
lumber.
1t is said that these depredations have been
gong ON FOR several years, and while tho for
ests have already sustained great damage. yet
II the measures suggested in this report
are adopted by Congress it is likely
that the Canadians will be obliged in the fu-
ture to get their logs from some other source
than American territory. The commits
sioners recommend that special agents
De located at one two points
along the border and that they be empowered
to exercise police duty and drive off and arrest
persons who are unlawfully cutting trees on
American soil. Secretary Noble has approved
these recommendations and adds some Of
his own.
