Wood still Principal Material Used in Building
Construction According to Government Report

by the annual building records. Oi
the permits used for buildings erect
ed last year approximately 61 per
cent were constructed ct wood, and
the remaining SO per cent of fire
resisting material, according to b
eport issued by the Geological sur
vey on operations in forty-ninc
leading cities ct the country Inese
figures are the more Significant
when 1t is realized that they only
represent the building activities in
the largest cities; they do not take
into account the construction OF
dwellinpls. stores and other building
IN the Thousands of small cities
and towns scattered over and not
included in the forty-nlne cities on
which the reckoning is made.
In towns and small cities wood Is
usually the predominating building
material and It is safe to say that
il the statistics had included figures
lor all places of whatever size. the
percentage OF wooden construction
would have been much greater
IJhese figures. as a rule are only for
the corporate limits, and the sub
urbs of these cities have each very
large amounts to be added The
cost. also. is relatively higher in
these cities than in towns nearer
the base of the supply.

Buffalo, Nov. 19.-tRobert e. Kin

shot dead last night on Seneca street
Agnes Gatlin, the wife of Edward
Gatlin, of Terre Haute, Ind, Is under
arrest charged with firing the fatal
shot. Mrs. Gatlin was captured a
few minutes after the shooting while
trying to force an entrance to a sa-

when she met Kinney. In reply to
a question as to the whereabouts of
her husband, Kinney, 1t is alleged
replied:
oh, he's out with the blonde to-

Mrs. Gatlin, II Is said, whipped
out a revolver and fired two shots,
one of which pierced Kinney's heart.

Washington, Nov. 19-It is bad
form to congratulate brigadier gen
erals and veteran colonels on birth.
days just now President Roosevelt
means to sweep new retirement
brocm through the army register
The president can retire an officer
at the age OF sixtytwo years or
when he has served torty-iiye
years as commissioned officer.
Two major generals. five brigadiers,
and a long list of colonels and
lieutenant colonels have reached
that age or approaching it.
Like the traditional month OF
March, which comes in like lamb,
President Roosevelt is expected to go
out OF office like lion. More
than that the politicians expect him
to pass as many final rewards about
among the friends and associates Of
his seven-year administration as ths
army regulations, civil service laws,
and the confirming power OF tho
senate will permit

CEMENT AS a SUBS rITUTE FOR
WOOD
Probable Effect on Lumber Prices.

The relation between the increas-
ing use OF cement, and the dimin-
ishing timber supply in the United
States has been the subject of some
interesting correspondence between
the Geological Survey and the For
est Service at Washington. In Il
letter TO the Forester, the Director
OF the Survey took oncasion to
quote from a statement OF a large
Philadelphia firm TO the effect that
II wCuld be difficult to estimate
what the additional drain on the
lumber supply would have been
during the last few years had not
cement come into such general use
The Forester replied in part as fol-
lows:
'"rhe Forest erWice is watching
with a great deal OF interest the
increasing use o. cement and other
substitutes for wood. They are
undoubtedly having some Influence
on the price OF lumber, though
do not think that up to the pres
ent time they have greatly retarded
the advance in lumber prices. The
fact is that cur industrial progress
mas been so great that our require
ments for over kind OF structural
material have increased tremendous
ly We are using at the present time
more lumber per capita than ever
before and probably twice as muca
per capita as We did fifty years
ago. The conclusion can not be
escaped. therefore. that in the flu
ture we must depend more than

Now that the feeling over the

OF Tennessee, ias died down sut-
ficienly to aIlcw of sober thought,
! ennesse,ans are beginning to rea-
lie that while they cannot excuse

committed, Carmack was TO blame
in part for having used the col.

the editor TO vent his spleen for the

As to { increase that will take
place in the production OF cement,
my impression is that this will be
very great.
II the increase in the use of ce-
ment in the United States in past
years is to be regarded as any in

sions of the Forester are well found.
ed The statistics OF the production
of minerals show that our output
OF cement has more than doubled

very widely extended. This is due
10 two conditions. In the first
place, excellent cement materials
are common in almost all sections
of the country; in the second place,
reinforced concrete for heavy build
ing material is received increased
favor among engineers, while in The
country regions large amounts or
cement are being used for building
blocks for smaller structures. Re-
ports received by the Survey during
the six years from 1902 to 1907
show that the production of ce-
ment in the United States has in
creased from 25 100000 barrels val
