The officials now have under consider ation the extension of what Is known as the North Hill Line to Goulding, a distance of about three miles, and all though no decision has yet been ar rived at 1t is expected that such will be done when the other and more i'm portant work Is under way.

LABOR WAS SCARCE
sAYMEN KEPT BUSY IN PENSACOLA
 HARROR.
Millions of Feet of Lumber Had to Re stored and Stevedores Paid
 All Sorts of

Pensacola, Fla, June 9.-tSpecial)--- The week which came to close to- day las been one of the best in the way of work for bayren to be eSperi- enced in years.
 The large number of steamers ana sailing vessels in port taking on car goes of lumber and timber require a small army of men, and there has nor been a day that the stevedores could secure sufficient skilled labor and were compelled to take men who had no ex- perience in storing either timber or lumber. Many millions of feet were placed in the holds of vessels. ard It IS thought the coming week will see an unusually large amount of work.
 The men who do this class Of work receive $4, $6 and $S per day. but even at this salary not enough could be se- cured. and stevedores were offering better pay to men who were skilled but who were engaged in other work. The large amount of timber taken on board vessels during tie week had reduced the stocks considerably, and this has had the effect of steadying the timber market, which had been on the decline for several weeks. While the receipts were large both by water and rail the supply was quickly taken. The quo tations during the latter portion of the week were 26 and 27 cents per foot for timber of over thirty feet in length, and from 21 to 22 for shorter lengths. The lumber market is also firm with good demand.
