A Bio Lumber Deal.

More important than the mere pur-
chase by the Michigan Central of the
David Ward estates Detroit & Charlie
voiX railroad of A miles are the de-
velopments probable in consequence
of the Michigan Central taking the
road into It's system. 1t is most likely
that the white pine forests through
which IT passes and still larger for
ests of hardwoods will be purchased
from the Ward estate by syndicate
Of wealthy Bay City lumber operators
at a price of $5000,000 or upwards,
more saw mills put in. and first the
pine and then the hardwood felled,
sawed into lumber and sent to market
on wholesale scale.
1t is said that the Bay City lumber
men have been ready for a long time
TO take the timber, either the whole
as a syndicate, or in parcels by indi-
viduals, but would not touch 1t unless
the Michigan Central would take the
small railroad and guarantee the new
spurs and siding and equipment neces-
sary to the large scale handling of
the product.
The Ward timber lands in Crawford,
Antrim and Charlevoix counties, but
chiefly in Antrim county, total $4,000
acres, and include large tracts of cork
pine-the straight, tall trees without a
branch, the famous Michigan white
pine II is estimated that there are
800, 100000 feet OF white pine lumber
in these trees, and from 1000 900, 600
to 2,000,O00,000 feet of hardwoods.

The field for argument both for the
prosecution and defense of William d.
Haywood was limited by Judge Wood,

cision argument commenced. Judge

A day of argument on the admis-
sion of points of evidence followed
the announcement from the defense
that they had no further witnesses to
offer in behalf of William ID. Hay

Mrs. Pineree Is Dead.

After a lingering illness, covering
nearly four years, Mrs. Frances Gil
bert Pingree, widow of Gov. Hazen s.
Pingree, died at the family residence
in Detroit Sunday night. Mrs Pingree
had not been in the best of health ever
since the governors death in 1901. and
eventually contracted a rheumatic
trouble, which had kept her confined
to the house. Her death was not un-
expected.
Mrs. Pingree was one of Detroit's
and Michigan's leading women, even
before the rise of her husband to the
highest honor in the gift OF the state.
She was his companion and advisor
from the time of their marriage. and
aided him more than any one else in
his advancement, and the accomplish.
ment of his ambitions. She is survived
by two children, Hazen S., Jr., and
Mrs. Sherman Depew, both Of Detroit.
Notwithstanding the important part
she played, Mrs. Pingree did not seek
social honors and shrank from pub
licity. She loved her own home, and
cared more for its Identification and
the best interests Of its inmates than
for the attention of the world. Never
theless, she had a warm heart. While
not identified with organized charities,
she gave largely and wisely to the
needy. She also gave time to those who
had objects which needed the COVER
nor's help and to which he was too
busy to attend.

The laps Now Have Korea Whers

The emperor of Korea abdicated In
favor Of the crown prince Friday morn
ing. The crown prince is an imbecile

Deserted by his cabinet and left
alone in his palace TO worry for four
days the emperor tried vainly to md

abdicating. His last endeavor was in
summoning Marquis Ito, the Japanese
resident general, whom he hoped
would help him out.

furious to the Korean court. Ito care
fully avoided committing himself and
conferred with Viscount Hayashi, who
had just arrived from Toxic The in
evitable result followed Enraged
crowds assembled early In the even
ing at various points throughout the
city and infammatory documents
against the Japanese are being freely
distributed, giving rise to a forlorn
hope that some active opposition is
about to begin. Serious collisions, it is
believed, will take place between the
police and rioters.
The Koreans fear the emperor will
be murdered and the report of the
sudden death OF one of the delegates
to The Hague also causes a fear that
there will be an epidemic of suicide
in sympathy with the emperor. The
trip there of Foreign Minister Haya-
shi of Japan is believed to have been
prompted mainly by a desire to get
Japanese attention centered on Korea,
so that the anti-American agitation
will die out

 Prescott Journal Miner: The Naco Consolidated Copper com pany has force of men engaged building a road from the station to the Yankee Chief and Comet groups, which they purchased re. gently from Mir. Thiesing, who is vice president of the company. A new shaft, now down to depth oi thirteen feet, has been started on one of the twenty claims which constitute the two groups. This shaft is intended as the main work ing shaft of the properties and the vein will be developed by an ex. tensive system of drifts and cross cuts, run from each 100 foot level There is a large body of copper ore, sampling from 2 to 3 per cent exposed by a number of shallow shafts and open cuts and good gold values are also found in the work ings.

Thi: mine is making an excellent show ing. Development work has also been commenced at the HOO foot level of the Hoatson shalt and tht results are pronounced very satis factory by the management.
