ness OF tHe NHSOH VVHIPdHy'
A new phase in the controversy over
the Henry Arson estate arose Wednes-
day afternoon, when S. r. Arson, one
of the heirs, petitioned the court that
he order the business of the Arson
company to cease. The petition alleges
that the business is being conducted by
the administrator, C. E. Cherry. at a
loss to the estate, and that the pur-
pose of the application that it be dis
continued is that the money being ex-
pended in the maintenance of the bust
ness may be saved to the estate.

NO CROWD OR DEMONSTRATION
Prisoner Takes Matters Coolly and
Leaves Selection OF TaIesmen to
Lawyers==ShoWs

A change Of venue to Boise, the
| capital city of Idaho and county seat
| of Ada county, was granted on the
motion of the defence, it being alleged
that fair trial in Canyon county
would be an impossibility. Haywood.
Meyer and Pettibone were transferred
TO the county Jail here, which COM
prises the basement floor of the county
courthouse. The court is known as
the district court of the third judicial
district. The presiding judge is Judge
Fremont Wood, a native of Maine, ii
former practitioner at the bar in this
city, and presiding now over his first
important criminal case.
Judge Wood is regarded as q care
full deliberate man, and the prosecu-
ton and defence believe that he will
leave no stone unturned to see that
equal. even handed justice is done.
Orchard. the self confessed murderer
of Governor Steunehberg and the ac-
cuser OF Haywood, Meyer and Petit
bone, is confined in the Idaho state
penitentiary, several miles out Of this
city He is kept under careful guard
at all times.
BOISE, at the outset of the famous
trial. is on the surface almost the least
interested community Of any in the
United States. The case of the miners
is never discussed on the streets as the
authorities have determined that the

Vermont Lumber Cut Is an
Item Of Great Value.
Over 3O,OOO,OOOFeei Were| Cut
During Last Winter.
Slight Falling off from Other FIg.
ures, But a Good Average.

Ncwfane, VT, May 9.-The value OF
the tree-clad slopes of the Green
Mountains of Vermont, aside from their
scenic advantages. is shown by a can
vas of the lumber mills in Windham
county alone, where over 10000, 900 feet
Of timber have been cut during the past
winter. furnishing logs enough to keep
all the mills throughout the county
busy during the summer.
Hundreds of thousands Of dollars
have been circulated in the county as
a result of the seasons cut and work
has been given to hundreds fmen.
This years operations have fallen a
little behind those OF previous seasons.
largely on account of the scarcity OF
cars for shipment,
The West River district operators
were particularly effected by the car
shortage and with about 100000 feet Of
lumber held up on account of alleged
inadequate transportation facilities
they have made an appeal to the state
railroad commission. One firm which
last season cut 100000 feet Of lumber
was able to ship only half the cut and
was obliged to curtail this seasons cut,
their action having been followed by
Other operators for the same reason.
A narrow Suage road was built early
in the winter through a portion of the
southern half of Windham county and
as this will be extended this season. n
large tract Of Virgin forest is expected
to be developed. Quantities Of snow
at the right level aided the loggers to
a great extent in getting down their
cut. One dealer in Jamaica has a large
stock of logs, which will be used in
manufacturing baby carriage spokes.
