Hcmiock Cut Falls Off.

in the following brief statement: Total

146. $4,000 feet Of hemlock lath manu-
featured. OF this amount 16,356000
feet was on hand Dec l. 1905
The falling off in hemlock production
last year was pretty well distributed.
All the leading districts showed a mod
crate decrease, while the mills along
the 500 Railroad showed heavy
one. The only increases. and they not
important, were in eastern-central Wis
consin and on the Green Bay shore in
the western part OF that State.
Judging from the latest statistics il
appears that the only heavy producing
hemlotll districts of Wisconsin have
passed their zenith and are on the
down grade. Still the decrease is not a
large one. A lumber production of
this minor wood in practically one
state IF 150,0O0,000 feet is not to be de-
spised; in fact. it is to a considera BILE
extent the hemlock business that has
maintained the soft wood industry Of
Michigan and Wisconsin at as high a
point as it is today.

NOT SATISFIED WITH ROBBERY
Thugs Set Fire to Plant and Destroy
Property Valued at
$3.50. 900.

Dover, n. H, Dec. 29.-The large
briek-making plant of Fiske & Co. at
Dover Point was burned by fire
which is believed to have been started
by two men who robbed the assistant
bOOkkeeper, Charles Goldwaite, while
the latter was sitting alone in the of
fee. Goldwaite was knocked uncon-
scious by a blow on the head, and for
hours after the occurrence was unable
to tell connected story of his expe-
riepce, but the police gathered from
him that he had been attacked by two
unknown men, and that his watch and
about $25 in money were missing.
The police believe that the robbers,
fearing that they had killed Goldwaite,
deliberately set fire to the building to
conceal the crime, or else tipped over
lamp accidentally in making their
escape Treasurer Peirce estimates the
value of the plant at $35OO00.

New York. Dee. 20-R. G. Dun &

Christmas week made a favorable com

volume of trade. Retailers stocks Of
winter goods have seen SO well dis
trlbuted that there remain less than
tho usual assortMelts forbaygEin sAles.
Wholesale business Is good for the sea-
son. and collections show further i'm
provenent. On the whole there IS less
idle machinery than is customary at
this time. Lack OF snow greatly facili-
tated building operations at many cit
les, and work is making rapid prog
ress, although delayed deliveries Of ma
tertals retard operations in this indus
Try also.
High prices are maintained in all
sections OF the iron and steel indus
try, which is only natural when all
departments are crowded with work
and contracts run so far into the fu-

machinery for at least the first half of

aud business sections of the city, cauS-
ing much establishment since the pub

Eociates, were given TO understand that
he was not seriously i'll. The announce

to every official and employee in the
Pennsylvania railroad offices, with
whom he was popular. The sudden
death caused q great shock in the ex-
ecutive offices of the Pennsylvania rail-
road, and for time business was prac-
tically suspended.
Speculation as to his successor is
rife, but nothing definite is known as
to that matter. The rebate investiga-
ton is thought to have had much to do
with CasSatt's death, as it put a lot
of extra and hard work upon him. Be

vania railroad Cassatt was president
