An Augusta lumberman says that
operations in the woods will begin
earlier this season than usual on ac-
count of the large amount of lumber
left in the woods last spring. On the
Kennebec and in other parts of the
State lumbermen are even now making
prparations for sending in their crews.
The demand for men is brisk and the
wages offered are at the top notch, $36
a month being offered experienced men.
This is higher than last year, when the
price paid was some s4 a month less
for first-class woodsmen.

NOT MUCH WORK FOR MINERS.
Stocks of Indiana Coal Too Large to
Permit Full Production.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
TERRE HAUTE, Ind, July 2O.-So far as
employment for the II, 600 miners in In
diana is concerned the Indianapolis con-
vention might as we'll have ordered a strike
for a few weeks at least. II is not likely
that the Indiana miners will have work
for more than a few days of the next four
or five weeks. The customers for the In
dina bituminous product have supplies that
will run them a month. They have so
much on hand that it is in the way in rail-
road yards and at the manufactures. Nine
ty per cent of the Indiana bituminous coal
is sold TO large consumers. railroads and
factories. The block coal goes more TO the
domestic consumer, and its trade will be
appreciably better by the continuation of
the anthracite strike.
The railroads and factories began storing
bitmuinous coal when President Mitchell
issued the call for the convention a month
ago. Operator and consumer alike thought
the convention was called to order a strike,
and that Notwithstanding President Mitch
ellis opposition to a strike that would break
contracts, a strike would be ordered 1t
can be said now that had he called the con-
vention for an earlier day probably strike
would have resulted. He gave time to
make the effort to create sentiment that
a strike would be foolhardy. not to speak
of the dishonor TO the United Mine Work
ers Ten days before the convention met
those in the inside learned that he had
about accomplished his purpose. Several
Indiana operators knew II and tried TO re-
assure the large consumers of coal bv tell
ing them there would be no strike, but they
did not stop accumulatng coal. The re-
suit is that the customers for 80 per cent.
of the Indiana output have supplies for q
month TO come, and as the autumn and fall
trade is some weeks off at the earliest the
prospect for work is poor. What is true
of Indiana is also true OF Illinois and Ohio,
but perhaps not TO so large a percentage

Last Visit TO the Coast.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 2o.-The news Of
the death of John w. Mackay in London
caused quite a shock here. notwithstanding
the public was in a measure prepared for it
by the previous announcement of his ill
ness. Mr. Mackay the last survivor of
the four Bonanza kings-Flood, O'Brien and
Fair the other three, having long since
died. For the past eighteen years Mr..
Mackay had not been actively identified
with the life of this city. but had passed
most of his time in the East, making an
nual visits to the coast 10 look after his
property interests in this State and Ne
vada. On the occasion of his last visit 10
this city, early this summer. Mr.. Mackay
completed arrangements for landing
place for the new Pacific cable, a project
that he was much interested in. During
visit in 1892 Mr.. Mackay was shot and
slightly wounded by w. D. Rippey who
had a fancied grievance against him dating
from the stock broking days of the Com
stock.
No accurate estimate of Mr.. Mackays
holdings in this State and Nevada can be
made, but it will run far into the millions.
He was the owner of valuable real estate
in this city, and had interests in mines
throughout this State and Nevada.

Even the Mackay fortune was not proof
against such a blow. The shock staggered
the Nevada Bank. but Mackay's coming
steadied il. Every dollar OF the securities
gambled away by the bank manager was
made good. The bank did not fail. but
Fair came in as its president. 1t was Far
hour of triumph. Just as years before the
failure CT a mining claim had not daunted
the miner, so in this later time the loss OF a
dozen millions did not loosen his nbre, ana
after that evil day John W. Mackay was
richer than ever.
When a lunatic's shot brought him to the
verge of death the whole world waited
anXiousy for the bulletins from his bed

have a chance of recovery. Groups Of
soldiers continue to discuss the trouble and
there were threats to finish up tonight
the work of last night, but it is believed
no further trouble will occur unless Loucke
dies.
The general sentiment is with the soldiers
and there is mild talk of organizing a vigi-
lance committee to drive out the tough
characters and thugs unless the police take
decisive action in that direction.
