LUMBERMEN WORRIED.
Canadians Fear Reprisals for Embargo
on Pulp Wood.

Toronto, Nov. 17.--Canadian lumber
men who are in toush with what is
going on in Washington and Canadian
government circles are alarmed over
the rumor that a duty of 81 per 1000
feet will be laid on Canadian sawed
lumber entering the United States. 1t
is said that the measure is intended
as a reprisal for the action of the pro-
vincial governments of Ontario and
Quebec in placing an embargo on the
export of pulp wood.
A number of pulp mills on the north
ern borders of the United States We're
dependent largely on Canada for pulp
wood and these have suffered by the
embargo. No effective reprisal can be
taken in connection with the pulp in
dustry, so that an effort, it is alleged, is
o nfoot to strike at Canada thru the
sawed lumber industry.
Sir Wilfred Laurier is anxious that
the governments of both Ontario and
Quebec should take some step that will
mitigate the alleged grievance of the
American pulp men. 1t is possible that
on his coming trip to Virginia Sir Will
fred will discuss the matter with the
American government.

Nevada, Nov. IA business crash
that will surprise and pain the people
of this community and Of the state has
i just been made public in the failure OF
the great butter. egg and commission
house of Boardman Bros, of this city.
! No statement of the firms assets and
| liabilities has been made public, but the
amount involved is large. It is thought
that full particulars will be given out in
g couple of days. Perhaps the largest
creditor of the firm is the Des Moines
Savings Bank, of Des Moines, but their
| Indebtedness has been secured by the
transfer of the real estate in this city
occupied by the firm of Boardn1an
Bros that used by the Nevada Poultry
Company and the residence property OF
H. C. Boardman. This real estate has
teen decided to Homer Miller. cashier
of the Des Moines Savings Bank, by
trust deed, and it is understood that al
lother creditors have been or Will pc
secured in like manner. 1t is currently
reported that the firms Indebtedness
locally is about $4,000, and that s5o,oVo
Of this is to the First National Bcnk OF
Nevada. $4,000 to the Farmers Bank
of Nevada and $4,000 to other firms
and individuals. and that most of this
is secured These estimates lack con
| flrnation. but are given credence here.
The business of Boardman Bros is q
large and extensive one, and their IN
ftegrity is absolutely unquesuoned.
Their local business has always peen
sound. and it is said that the trou0ie
has all arisen over their connect1on
with what is known as the Egg Snip
pers' Strawboard and Filler Company
of which H. C. Boardman Is secretary
| and treasurer. This company manu-
factures strawboard filters for egg
cases. and like commodities, and was
considered one of the largest In the
world. 1t was almost without COM
fpetition in the United States, the fac
tory being located at Tama, Iowa. Just
what caused the faihIre can not re
stated, nor is it known how other cap
italists who were interested in the
Egg Shippers Strawboard and Filler
Company win be affected, if at all.
Some four months ago Mr.. w.
Boardman was prostrated by para
lytic stroke, and has since been in q
helpless condition at his home in this
city, and all knowledge of these affairs
is carefully kept from him. The great
strain has also told on Mr.. H. C.
Boardman and he too is quite i'll with
nervous prostration. The two brothers
and families have the sympathy of this
community, for they have always been
honest and upright. and have labored
for the welfare of the city. People gen
orally seem to think that the firm win
pay all it owes. for their assets are
very large. They are large holders OF
northern Iowa land, and have been in
terested in Oklahoma speculations, be-
sides their local interests. The OUT
come is eagerly looked for.

Mitchell then entered into detailed
description of the workings of the un-
ion.
Mitchell said the officers of the union
under pay have contributed 81 per cent
per month of their salaries for the benz
eft of the striking miners. The fact
was brought out that Mitchell had a
telephone conference with Senator
Hanna just previous to the settlement
Of the strike in 1900 in which the sena-
tor had told him the operators had de-
cided to make an offer of 10 per cent
advance. He believed the fact that an
election was pending had something TO
do with the early settlement of the
strike. MacVeagh took up the sugges-
ton for a yearly agreement and at
tempted to show the union could not
control it's members, and therefore an
agreement was impracticable. Mitchell
said there were many differences that
10th sides justly complain of, which he
hoped would be wiped out by an agree
ment Regarding the boycott Mac
Veagh asked Mitchell why he could not
use his influence to put an end to boy
cotting and to further intimidation OF
women and children, whose lives had
been made uncomfortable. Mitchell re-
sponded that it was the very fathers
and husbands of this people who had
themselves made the families lives un-
endurable. He did not countenance the
stoppage of funerals or the prevention
OF physicians attending a unon- -unionist
or member Of his family. He declared
that trade unionist who was MEM
