About half OF these imports come from

cipal feature in our timber imports is the
tropical timber, including Cuban ma
hogany and cedar, and Mexican mahog-
any and cedar, and mahogany from
Central and South America and Africa
The wooded area of the United States

NEW YORK MURDER MYSTERY.
mangled eody Discovered in a Trunk on The
East River Pier.

Within rusty green trunk, which lay
unnoticed on a pile Of skids at the en-
trance to pier II, East river, New York,
was hidden a startling murder mystery,
which in many features resembles the
Guldensuppe case.
A curious policeman, who opened the
trunk, found in it the body OF man
whose throat had been cut. Two hours
later the murdered man was identified
by woman as Mayer Weissbard a
jewelry peddler, who recently disappear
ed.
The man had been murdered and rob
bed and his body stuffed into the cheap
little trunk to hide the crime. The
trunk had been left at the pier some
time early Wednesday morning. The
intention Of the murderers was evidently
to throw the trunk into the East river
The cut in the mans throat was about
six inches long and had been done with
uncrring aim. The wound was clean
one and had evidently done its work
almost instantaneously.
The murdered man is IS years old
and leaves wife and several children.
When he left home he had a stock OF
jewclry valued at 5000 and some money.

ESCAPED THE GALLOWS.
A Quick Verdict Reached in the Patterson,
New Jersey, Tragedy.

1--WE find them guilty OF murder in the
second degree" So said Charles Brett
foreman of the Paterson jury, as he
stood up with his II colleagues, and
looked into the straining eyes OF Wal
ter McAlister. Andrew Campbell and
Walter Death. 1t was sos, the hour
and minute when three months to the
day that Jennie Bosscheter had left her
home in Paterson N. J.. and started to-
ward kent's drug store, there to encoun-
ter two OF these men. and to be lurcd
to the midnight revel that ended in her
death.
The forfeit of life was not demanded
The youngest OF the prisoners will be Il
man OF middle age or more when lie
leaves a felon's cell, for the Jersey law
fixes a maximum penalty of 80 years for
murder in the second degree, and those
best informed say that Judge Dixon will
impose nothing less than the MAXIMUM,
especially as the jury made no discrim-
nation and recommended none OF the
prisoners to mercy. 1t was a compro-
mise verdict that was reached after three
hours delibcration.
AS for the prisoners, they were almost
happy in escaping death Counsel for
the prisoners announced that the case
would be appealed.

Senator Allen Makes Pointed Remarks on
West Point Practices.

In discussing the army bill Senator
Allen, Populst, Nebraska, made vio-
lent attack upon hazing at the West
Point military academy and declared
that the prize fighter is a gentleman
compared with some OF those young ruf-
fans at West Point. "Place one" he
said, "of the old volunteer officers at
the head OF that place, and in six weeks
he will stop hazing or there will be
some dead cadets. have information
which leads me to believe that hazing
at West Point is escorted to for the
purpose of forcing out of the institu-
tion cadets appointed from civil life, in
order to make room for the sons OF
army officers. And il thev cannot force
out the cadet by humiliation and in
timidation, they prescribe course OF
examination which they could not pass
themselves, and thus force the proscrib-
ed cadet from the school,"
