REDUCTION ON LUMBER.
st. Paul and Chicago Lines Lower
Rates On Fir.

Seattle, Oct. 2.-St. Paul Chicago
lines have conceded to cedar lumber a
10 cent rate from Minneapolis, Duluth,
st. Paul, and Minnesota Transfer to
Chisago. This is reduction of cents
from the tariff announced on September
3, and which was to have been made
effective last week. 1t means a saving
to Washington lumber manufacturers
of 5000 year.
The question of granting similar
rate to the red cedar shingles of this
state is still before the nine lines oper-
ating between the two points. An
agreement between the systems affect
ed has been made to quote ID cent
rate to shingle manufacturers, but rep
resentatives of three lines have agreed
to bring the matter up again. In the
event the concession is granted saving
to shingle men of 100000 year will
result
ii the st. Paul-Chicago roads refuse
to grant the reduction fight before the
interstate commerce commission is al
most certain to result. Washington
single manufacturers believe they are
being Disseminated against and will
institute proceedings to protect them
selves. 1t was a threat of similar ac-
tion that secured the concession in favor
of lumber from this state.

This Vermonter Has Been Cured of De.
sire for Investigation.
Up in Vermont town not very far
this side Of Montpelier is a town school
supervisor who never will again stop
to investigate buzzing music at rail
way crossing. The man who, figurat-
lively speaking, ran up against the

what Is known as the Finley Bridge
crossing Of the Central Vermont Rail-
road. There Is a big cliff that juts out
ut this point close to the main branch
Of the White river and the track cuts
a sharp curve around 1t. Most Of the
time the locomotive whistles cannot be
heard on the other side Of the big
rock prOmontOry by people on the high
way.
The school supervisor was taking a
load Of bark to the village, four miles
away. Stirred by series Of accidents,
the railway officials, unknown to the
supervisor, had installed an electric
signal bell that rings when trains get
within certain range Of highway
crossing. The supervisor heard the
ringing Of the gong, but he had never
heard anything like 1t before, and he
marveled both at its source and its
object. He continued on until he was
directly upon the track, when an idea
found Judgment In his head. With
wagon full athwart the track, he
stopped his team. wound the rcins
around the whipstock, and, jumping
down to the ground, lowed as how he
would see what the pesky thing was,
and walked over to the post. A mo-
ment later he learned, but not through
looking at the post. A fast freight
swept around the curve and smashed
the wagon into fragments, badly injur-
ing one of the horses. and started the
other on a wild run down the road.
