Commander Schroeder Issues
Order That Stirs up Navy De-
partment and Gen. Haywood.

Washington, June 27.-The atten-
ton Of fthe navy department. has been
formally called to what is purported to
Be an unsatisfactory condition Of
affairs in Guam. The incoming mail
has. brought a copy of an order issued
by the naval commandant of the island,
Commander Schroeder, denonncing the
shoodlumism and lawlessness' which,
he states are rampant at the station.
The order says: Terrorism, thefts,
drunkenness and gambling, which
have brought the United States force
into disrepute. y Reference also is
made to the theft Of barrel of whis-
key from the medical store. the only
spirits on the island, as well as sum
Of money amounting to about $500
from one of the marines, and the
order closes with the imposition of
restrictions of the liberty Of the
marines.
1So wholesale is the denunclation Of
the marines that it is believed the
navy department. will be obliged to
look into the matter.
Gen. Haywood, the commandant Of
marines, who has received reports IN
that capacity Of the happenings IN
Guam, has been called upon to furn-
ish such information as he has and 1t
NAV be that court Of inquiry will be
appointed. Gen. Haywood was at the
navy department today and had con-
ference with Acting Secretary Hack
EFT. He stated afterwards that the
mail from Guam had brought him no
report from Maj. White. the ranking
marine officer on the island, or from
any other source concerning the re-
norted trouble. The general is natu-
rallv very much surprised, to say the
least. at the order rejecting as 1t
does upon the integrity OF every OH
Ger and man of the marine corps on.

NEW SdW MILL

A new sawmill with the capacity
of 10000 feet of logs day is said to
be project that will 1naterialize at
Mesaba soon, says the Duluth Her.
aid. R. F. Olcott, of Lacrosse, Wis,
who represents a large syndicate,
has been at Mesaba for the purpose
of looking over the ground with a
view to establishing a mill and in a
recent interview he stated that the
company he represents will begin
work on the new mill as soon as ar
engagements can be made for getting
the material on the ground. About
800 men will be employed. The COM
pany already has some seventy five
to one hundred lumber yards scat
tered throughout Wisconsin and
expects to establish fully as many
if not more in Minnesota.
The new mill will also have shin
gle and lath machinery and when
complete is to be one of the largest
plants in the state. Mr.. Olcott de-
c1ared that the company has the
principal part of the most valuable
pine lands within a radius of twenty
miles of Mesa ba, and also along the
northern shore Of Lake Superior.
The Virginia enterprise. [volume] (Virginia, St. Louis County, Minn.) 1893-19??, 1901-01-18

As soon as the mill is built the COM
pany, Mr.. Olcott says, expects to put
in logging road from Mesaba to
the heaviest timber belt from there
to the north shore, with cut-offs to
the other tracts of pine.
This will be another instance of
logs cut in the Duluth district that
will not go to the head of the lakes
for manufacture. Mr.. Olcott SAYS
the reason for this is that it is
cheaper for the company to estab-
lish it's mill at Mesaba, manufacture
it's own lumber and ship it, thereby
saving the expense of freight on the
logs and the expense of loading
them. He believes it will be just as
cheap to ship from Mesaba as from
the head of the lakes.
The new mill is to be located
about a half mile east of the Duluth
& Iron Range depot. One of the
plans that may take definite shape
is the erection by the company of a
number of cottages for it's employees.
