MAKES NEW DEPARTURE
scANLoN-GIPsoN LUMBER COM
PANY BUYS WAREHOUSE AND
WILL HANDLE1 GENERAL LUM-
Der STOCK. H. 81! % s4e. ye~2HF t. +

The Scanlon- Gil pson Lumber company
has just closed deal for the purchase
Of storage yard and warehouse at
Minnesota Transfer, from the Citizens
Lumber company and the Central Ware
house company. The facilities will be
enlarged and the Scanlon- Gipson com
pany will engage III a general wholesale
lumber business. A Complete stock Of
west coast fir and cedar, western pine,
white cedar. ysllow pine, hemlock and
hardwood will be accumulated, from
which assorted car orders of any kind
will be filed. The sales Headquarters
will continue to be in Minneapolis.
The new departure is of considerable
interest to the lumber trade, as the
Scanlon- Gipson company has heretofore
been known as strictly white pine
concern. It manufactured here for
several years, hiring it's. logs sawed by
the Diamond mill, and also had mill
at Nickerson, Mimi. Both mills have
gone out Of commission, and within the
last year the company has invested
heavily in the south. The new deal
gives assurance that it will continue a
Minneapolis corporation, and will still
be a large factor in the lumber trade of
the city. It is anticipated that stock
Of 100000 feet or more will be kept
continually on hand at the Transfer.

INTERESTS CLASH
Petitions for and Against Restoration
Of Fourth Avenue Service.

Members of the Minneapolis Bar as
ISOLATION promise some lively doings
when the council committee on railroads
meets to consider petition to have the
Fourth avenue short line service on
Third street resumed. Since the Fourth
avenue cars have been operating under
the new loop system across Fifth street,
there has been loud complaint from
those who preferred the old route. Mer-
chants along Third street, from Fourth
avenue to Hennepin, and several mem
bers of the Chamber Of Commerce, have
presented petition asking that the
short line service, at least, be restored.
The bar association does not want it,
and is ready to fight. It is backed and
assisted by Fifth street mer 99s1n WHO
a good thing for their business. The
bar association claims that the street
car company was given permission to
use Fifth street only after expressly
agreeing to vacate Fourth avenue. The
ground for the protest tt r Is the ,1 noise
grade, which disturbs courtroom pro-
ceedings:

GRAFTON Of Interests.
Charles o. Sherman of Chicago, presi-
dent of the q Industrial Workers Of
America, spoke at the A. o. U. w. hall,
Central and University avenues, about
the work of the order. There were
about $50 laboring men present and his
remarks were received with great en-
thusiasm. ~ ~
The new order advocates closer or
ganization among ali labor unions, and
that one labor union shall regard the
grievances of another as it's own. BY
sticking together the unions will afford
bulwark against the trusts. The pres
ldent declared that during the past
three years the cause of trade labor has
been moving backward. rather than for.
ward. The reason assigned was that
capital is more closely united.
President Sherman has visited the
different cities Of the west, and many
members have added to the roll Of the
order. He expects to return to Mime
apolis in a month and start an active
campaign.
