balance Of the fine over him 10 keep him
out of the town; Buck McCarty. Red
Crary, Army Evans, Dock Thomas, and
Ed Benedict were given twenty-four
hours to leave the town and the city
holds all these judgments over them and
propose to keep them out of town. Chod
Thomas is out OF jail on parole and the
city will permit him to be out OF jail dur

DOWN GOES LUMBER
Rumor That a War of Prices
Is On.
BOARDS GOING AT COST
Nobody Seems TO Know the
Start of 1t.

Now is the time to buy lumber. The
hire lumber yards in Wichita are having
a scrap on prices and the story is out
that lumber is now going out at cost No
lumber man viii admit that he is in the
fight; it was always the other eight fell
lows.
Ben Mclean positively says that he
does not know anything about fight
but he says he does know that there is
close competition.
I want to tell you" he said to an
Eagle reporter, that what profit we are
getting out Of the lumber now wouldn't
hurt you if It were all put into your eye"
When win it end?" asked a reporter.
Il don't know" Mr.. Mclean said. II
don't even know when it started. All 1
know is that the people are getting their
lumber at about cost"
Ben Arawalt, with the Rock Island
Lumber company. said: Don't ask me
about it. All can say to you now is that
I can't build a house any cheaper for my
SELF than you can.
I'VE are making no fight; it's the other
fellows. OF course we have to sell lum-
Der as cheap as anybody else. It's a good
thing for the town, I suppose, but don't
see where the lumber man profits by the
building boom, the way things are going"
Howard Case simply said: Lumber is
very low"
All the lumber yards are doing a big
business and if they are not selling at
cost, they are making money.
Contractors do not believe that the
rumored war on prices of lumber is gen
uine. They admit that lumber is a great
deal cheaper than it has been. but they
insist that the dealers are still making
a profit. It is said that shingles are
ninety cents per thousand cheaper than
they are in surrounding country towns.
