Syndicate Being Formed With

Remaining Tract
WEYERHAEUsER IN MERGER
Lumber King as Well as Several Chi.
cage Firms, Interested-Hope to Sc
cure Largest Pine Tract in the
WorId-DeaI is Practically Com
pIeted.

Chicago, Nov. 26-One Of the mos
important lumber deals of recent years
by which a s2O,OO0,OOO syndicate will
take control of the pine forests OF
northern Minnesota, is near completion
| Representatives Of the three big in
terests involved-the Weyerhaeusel
company of Cloquet, Mimi; the Cooke
& O'Brien company of Duluth, and the
Edward Hines Lumber company Of
Chicago-lnet yesterday afternoon al
the Union League club to discuss the
plan by which the Hines company
either in itself or operating thru 9
syndicate, is to take control Of the
properties.
Deal is Practically Completed.
Edward Hines last night said the
plan was not in such shape that he
could give the details out, but admitted
that 1t would be put thru within a day
or two and that nothing but minor rpat-
tiers were left to be settled.
Besides Nfr. Hines at the meeting
| which took place in a private room a,
the club, were Frederick Weyerhaeusel
and his sons, John and Rudolph, aid
a member of the firm Of Cooke &
O'Brien.
The interests to be pooled are:
Lumber in Minnesota and the prov
ince Of Ontario controlled by the Wey-
erhaeuser people, valued at $S,000,000
Lumber In Minnesota controlled by
the Cooke & O'Brien people, valued al
SIT 100000.
The Rainy Lake, Duluth and Winni-
peg railroad, controlled by, Cooke &
| O'Brien, 200 miles long, and worth
81 100000
Between s1,ooo,oo0 and s2,oOoooc
worth of lumber controlled by the
Hines people.
Biggest Pine Tract in World.
This constitutes three billion feet OF
lumber, in white pine, Norway pine
and hemlock. 1t comprises the biggest
tract Of white pine left i'm the world
The timber lies in st. Louis county
the county to the east, and in Ontario
| The object of the combine is said to
be to obtain control of the Transports
ton facilities so that the lumber can
be handled cheaper for all concerned.
Just how the reorganization is to be
brought about was not divulged. The
Weyerhaeuser company owns 45 per
cent of the stock of the Hines COM
pany and Frederick Weyerhaeuser is
known as "the lumber king of the con-
tinent" He is reputed to be worth $751;

speaker, would be so strongly i'm
trenched in public opinion as to carry
the people with him, regardless of
whether Mr.. Cannon was elected or de-
feated. The election of Mr.. Cannon,
in the face Of such an issue, 1t Is
calhned here, would serve to emphasize
the administration policies and insure
their enactment into law. Members of
the house who might find an excuse for
voting for Mr. Cannon out of self re-
spect and to preserve the dignity of the
house, would hardly find it possible
during the session to oppose the poll
cies demanded by the president.
The agitation of this question, it is
claimed by those who take a broad
view of the situation, will be attended
by good results. 1t will focus public at
tention on the Chicago platform, and
on the speaker, and on both houses of
congress. This. it is believed, will GER
tainly result in legislation.

them.
The raiser of cattle is in the same
boat with US. He is getting the worst
of it, altho the Is per cent tariff is
supposed to be there for his protec-
ton.

one can understand it with moment S

that however wicked for malicious may
have been the purpose or intent Of the

yet if deceased took it voluntarily,
