TO INTEREST OUTSIDE CAPITAL
Men Anxious to Invest in clatsop coun-
ty. Believed Project Will Mean Gre

terprise on West Side.

The Warrenton Lumber company is,
according to reliable report, to be re-
organized. The company was forced to
the wall some months ago, but ever
since it went into insolvency efforts
have been under way to place it on its
feet again. 1t Is believed that the Ell.
forts will be crowned with success.
The stockholders in the company are
planning to effect a settlement with
their creditors, and purpose TO settle
on the basis Of 80 cents on the dollar.
The total amount of claims against the
concern Is not very great, and, best of
all, there is very general disposition
on the part Of the creditors to assist
in the reorganization. 1t is stated by
one of the creditors that the proposal
meets with the satisfaction of nearly
all those to whom the company is in
debted, and it is probable that the pro-
posal win be accepted. f
The announcement will be Of much
Importance, for the reason that the re-
organizers are planning to interest out.
side capital. The men interested are
said to be anxious to invest in Clat-
sop county, and it is believed that the
proejet will mean the creation of a large
and flourishing enterprise on the West
Side. Unusual market conditions at
the inception were responsible for the
troubles of the company. but there is
no prospect of recurrence Of such diff.
eulties, and the future seems bright, !.
The details Of the reorganization have
not yet been completed, but withing a
short time public statement will prob
ably be secured concerning the matter.
The names OF the outside capitalises
interested have also been withheld, pendsz
ing cOnsummation of the negotiations.

COLLAPSE OF STRIKE.

As was stated in yesterdays Gazette,
Grand Chief Warren S. Stone, of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers,
has revo ked the charter Of the striking
marlborough engineers in New York.
Mr.. Stone says that the decision Of
the grand council is final aud that the
New York engineers belonging TO sub.
division No. $50 could not be reinstated
except upon a majority vote at con-
vention of the brotherhood.
The strike on the subway and elevated
lines in New York seems to be collaps-
ing. Yesterday afternoon general
attempt was made on the part of the
former employees to recover their lost
positions, and the announcement that
the local union had been expelled from
the Brotherhood of Engineers had a
depressing effect upon the strikers.
The Offices Of the company, in the
Park Row building, and OF the division
superintendents we're besieged by men
Auo udu BOuC Out.
An official of the company said that
there were less than 1000 places to be
filed, and that the former employees
would have to take their chances, just
as if they had never worked for the
company. This official said that the
management of the company realized
that many of the men had been forced
to go on; by the leaders and hat against
such men there would be no iiscrimina-
ton. In number of cases wives came
to appeal for the reinstatement OF their
husbands.
The biggest crowds since the strike
began focked to the uptown subway sta
tons during the morning rush hours.
At the Ninety-sixth street station,
while the platforms were jammed other
fullest capacity. two persons were
severely injured in the crush. One Of
them, a woman, fell in the narrow
space between the platform and the car
and her leg was badly crushed. A mans
leg was caught in the heavy sliding door
of car severely hurt. Many others
were roughly handled in the crush.
These conditions were repeated at many
other points along the line, but no
more serious accidents, were reported.
The severely taxed surface lines, which
have been called upon TO handle an
enormously increased traffic since the
strike began. also bad their troubles.
Accidents on both the Eighth avenue and
Columbus avenue lines during the
height of the morning rush, blocked the
tracks and resulted 10 increased con-
gestion for time. The other surface
lines in the uptown district were being
operated without difficulty, except for
the greatly increased crowds, which were
diverted to them by the conditions on
the Eighth avenue and Columbus
avenue branch.

SATURDAY EVENING. MAR. II, 1905

Opp1,1AL announcement from the

With comparatively very few exceptions,

Welt has made only such changes as ne
thought we're necessary for the good OF
the public service. He intends new, it

between the North and the South; that
this has resulted in harm and that the

A business Necessity.

The Indianapolis News chronicles the
dissolution Of dry goods firm at
Marion, Ind, which for seventeen yesrs
had maintained an uphill fight against
modern business methods, only to be
beaten at last. The firm in question
had the best site in the town, and hosts
of friends and when its field was in
vsded by other houses that advertised,
it refused to throw its money away for
newspaper space. Gradually the new
stores won the patronage OF the old one !;
new customers failed to appear to take
the place of the deserters, aud the firm
that tried to get along without adver-
Using has finally relinquished its BUSH
ness. Which demonstrates again that
advertising is not luxury, but neces-
sity.
