Marshfield, Wis, Nov. 1.-THE Upham
Manufacturing company closed down it's
sawmill last Wednesday after a very sue
cessful seasons run. The mill will not
lay idle long, as cutting will be resumed
as soon as new logs commence coming
in. During the season just closed be-
tween 100000 and 20,O00,000 feet have
been sawed. Of this amount about A.
100000 feet is pine, the balance being
hardwood. Up to the present time the
company has let two logging contracts
for next seasons logs, the largest of the
two being with Pete Cranmer Il Son of
this city, who will put in 100000 feet
of pine on lands in Clark county. The
logs will be brought to the mills here by
train over the Central lines. The COM
pany intends putting in and buying of
small j0bbers 4 larger amount of hard
wood than heretofore. The entire Win
ters cut will be 20,000,OOO feet. But lit
tie will be done in the woods yet other
wise than building camps and making

SPIES CAUGHT IN PARIS.
An Extensive Plot Discovered by
French War Department
Officials.

Paris, Nov. 15.-In consequence of the
instructions of the minister of war, Gen.
MERCER, an inquiry has been commenced
into serious case of espionage. Three
arrests have already been made in this
connection. The prisoners include two
Germans, Schoenbeck and Won Cassel,
who are believed to be officers in the
German army reserve. The third pris-
oner is a Frenchman whose name has
not been given. Searches made at the
residences of the prisoners resulted in the
discovery of discriminating documents.
The three arrests have revealed an ex-
tensive espionage plot, and it appears that
the documents found at the residences of
the prisoners are of great importance

PROSPECT OF A MINERS STRIKE.
Wages in the C1earfie1d, Pa, Coal Re
gion to be Reduced.

Pittsburg, Pa, Nov 1.-THE operators
in the Clearfeld district have taken the
initiative in reducing the price of coal
mining. The Bell, Lewis and Yates Min
ing company has posted a notice that aft
er November 16 the rates in their mines
would be reduced 5 cents per ton to 30
cents. About 1000 men are affected and
there is talk of strike. The Berwind-
White Mining company, in the same dis
trict, employing 600 men, will probably
follow this example of reduction and q
general lowering of the scale rate in the
district will result The operators in the
Pittsburg district have threatened to
make reductions and will now probably
be forced to this end in order to compete
with coal from the Clearfeld district. The
reason given by the Clearfeld operators
for the cut is that coal is being mined
cheaper in this district

danger to the public health in the building
of the sewer to the river from the county
buildings, which are situated three miles
above the town and not far from the
stream. The current will float the sew
age into the heart of the city, and will
