Queer state of affairs exist down south
in some of the pineries. 1t seems that
those from the north who have been
purchasing timber down in the south
have found out that the natives are lazy
so they have imported men from the
north who easily do twice as much work.
and, of course, receive higher wages.
Now the native laborers are organizing
to drive the northerners out. On Christ
mas day the natives working for the
Monroe Lumber company in southern
Arkansas and northern Louisiana re-
volted and wrecked logging trains and
with dynamite started to blow up the
camps. Anold native finally persuaded
the mob not to do it.

Gray, when the strike commission
opened its session Friday, recalled the

Coal company was questioned. The
lawyers for the mipers challenged the
good faith of the general manager of
the company, and Chairman Gray
said that If the company could not
show how many men figured in the
wages handed to the commission it
might shake the faith of the commits
sion in the wage statement. Chair
man Gray said that he has since been
informed that the auditor of the COM
pany notified one of the assistant re-
corders when the figures were hand
ed in that the company was unable to
give in all cases the exact number of

TRADE REVIEW.
Conditions Throughout the Country
Are Wholeso some-Holiday Trade
Great In Volume.

New York, Dec. 20.-R. G.. Dun x
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says:
Holiday trade has exceeded even
the most sanguine expectations AMI
retail dealings in all staple lines of
merchandise are well maintained,
with the better grades of goods in
brisk demand. Wholesome condi-
tions prevail in most sections of the
country, although in parts of the
southwest the season has fallen be-
hind the average. Even in these
cases, reports are encouraging for
the future. Industrial plants arc
well employed, orders running far
into the future, and labor contro-
versies are rare. The only adverse
feature of the situation is the fac.
that supplies of fuel are utterly in
adequate, both for household and
manufacturing uses, snow increasing
the delay of deliveries. Two events
of Importance have occurred in rela-
tion to the leading manufacturing In
dustry. The United States Steel Cor
poration has greatly extended its
scope by absorbing many outside
plants and certain desirable railway
connections. The other was the an
nouncement of advanced freight
rates to take effect January 1, show
ing an average increase of about ten
per cent. on products of iron and
steel. Otherwise the situation Is
practically unchanged.
Failures for the week numbered
267 in the United States, against 265
