OUTPUT CUT, IS, PER CENT

Minneapolis Lumber Mills Decide to
@ Reduce Their Product.
MINNEAPOLIS, March 23.-It has been
decided to reduce the output of the
Minneapolis mills 20 per cent. Last
years cut was $50, 100000 feet. A re-
duction Of 20 per cent means that this
years cut will be only 100000, 600.
which will be by far the lowest output
since 1890, when the figures were 34S,
600, 900. The mills begin saving as
soon as the logs arrive and they will
run as late in the fall as possible, but
there will be no night work, and those
mills which have formerly run only in
the daytime will not run at full Ca
pacity. The mills will thus have to
face large surplus of logs, for this
years log cut is only $4,000, 600 feet
less than it was last year. The force
Of employees will be 1900 less than
usual.
