company announces that it now has its
sawmill plant at Butte Falls in condi-
tion to put out at least lao, 900 feet of
lumber day, just as soon as the Med
ford & Crater Lake railroad is extended
to its timber belt. The large acreage
of timber sold during the last few
weeks, and the fact that the larger
tracts are under bond in that great
timber section at the head of Rogue
river and the two Butte creeks, is sig

Hermann Trial Delayed by Long
Drawn-Out Postal Case.

Washington, June 7.-Representa-
tive Hermann's g trial in this city on the
letter hook indictment has finally been
postponed until the fall term of the
court and under the agreement made
today will probably not be called until
the latter part of November or Decem-
Der. The case, which had been set for
trial June 18. was today postponed by
Justice Gould on motion of United
States District Attorney Baker, the mo-
tion being concurred in by A. S. Worth
ing for the defense. The latter stated
that be had agreed to the postponement
of the United States attorney with the
explicit understanding that the trial
should follow Immediately after the
trial of the Hyde-Diamond Benson land
fraud cases. The postponement was
necessitated by the fact that the Green
Doremus postoffice case gives promise
of consuming much more of the courts
time than was originally anticipated.
