LUMBER FOR ST. VINCENT
A United States Transport to Carry
That Donated by Canadian
Government.

Washington, May 27.-The navy de-
partment has added one more and
perhaps the last to the good Offices
which it has been called on to per-
form in behalf Of the West Indian
volcanic sufferers, by undertaking to
transport to the homeless people CT
st. Vincent large quantity of build
ing lumber which the Canadian gov.
eminent has donated. The lumber is
coming by railroad from Canada
through to Norfolk, the treasury Off
Gals authorizing its passage through
the United States in bond and without
payment OF duty. At Norfolk the
lumber will be loaded on the collier
Leonidas and transported directly tc
St Vincent
Having relieved all present neces
stiles Of the inhabitants Of Martin.
ique and St Vincent, the navy de.
psrtment has decided to suspend fur.
Their activity in that direction and
merely to stand by" ready to re.
spond to any call for assistance. The
little Potomac. which, under the able
direction Of Lieutenant Mccormick
has performed such splendid service
in the relief work, will not be sent
back again unless new and worse
conditions develop.
The Dixie probably will finish un
loading at St Vincent today, and she
too. will be withdrawn from further
service in the West Indies, returning
TO New Ycrl-.

has held that persons could not be
prosecuted for selling liquor to ln'
dians who are prisoners OF war

penal offense in Oklahoma for any
person to sell liquor TO an Indian
who is in charge of an Indian
agent.

gain of points on old crop months but
to points down on new. Although
receipts continue fairly liberal they have
no marked effect on values for the moment
as spots are sold firmly and buyers seem
to be willing to pay present prices. The
cndertone, however, is not so steady and
some think a reaction may be realized.
One popularity about all bull years is
that 1T matters not in which market the
campaign originated before the end of
the season the same rampant enthusiasm
is transmitted and prevails alternately
in New Orleans New York and Liverpool.
The American markets have been after
the article all this season and from pres
ent indications it looks as if Liverpool
may also wake up and have the bull
fever about the time those who originally
started the movement are willing to re-
tire. The situation is considered strong
by the majority of traders and sentiment
is bullish; still these prices certainly
discount a great deal. However the fu-
ture course of the market will be ruled
by receipts, the demand for spots and
the prospects for the next crop.

THE TORCH AGAIN APPLIED.
Fire at Thomasville Which is Quickly Fx-
tinguished.

Especial to News and Observer
High Point, N. c., April 21.-Again the
work of an incendiary was manifest last
night about IL o'clock in our unfortunate
neighboring town of Thomasville. Some
rascal, for whom hanging is too mild a
punishment, set fire to one of the out
houses at the Cramer Furniture Co.'s
plant, the largest and best plant in that
town. 1t was evidently the intention of
the miscreant when firing this clubhouse,
that the flames would spread to the
main building and destroy it before it
was discovered. The fire was discovered
soon after the deed was committed, and
the work of those on hand confined the
fire to the building in which it was
started.
Raymond Edmondson in whose barber
shop the fire last week is supposed to
have started was before the mayor yes
terday and placed under a 5000 bond for
his appearance at trial next Saturday.
In the meantime it is thought that evil
dence will be had that will throw some
light on these crimes of recent date.
