CENSUS OF STANDING TIMBHR.
estimates Say the Supply VIM Last About twenty three Years

to give an accurate basis for comput.
ing how long our timber supply will
last.
The consensus of opinion Is that
the present annual consumption OF
wood Is about 100000, 100000 board
feet, or something more than that.
One leading authority has placed II
as high as 100000, 100000 board
feet. Assuming a stumpage OF
1,400, 900, 100000 feet, an annual
use of 100, 000, 900. 900 feet and neg
lecting growth in the calculation the
exhaustion of our timber supply is
indicated in fourteen years, and as
suming the same use and stand, with
an annual growth of 10000 ,000,00O
feet, a supply for twenty-three years
is indicated. Letters to county clerks
asking for statements of forest areas
in their counties have been forward
ed. Seven thousand lumbermen and
timber land owners have been asked
to supply similar information. In
all, nearly 10000 letters have been
sent. These letters also ask for a
wide variety of information, includ-
ing not only the numbering and mill

KILLED AT GRADE CROSSING
Wagon, With Six Persons, Hit
Near MeIrOse, N. Y.
Bodies of -Four Victims Horribly
Mangled-Driver Deaf and
Failed to Hear Train.

Troy, N. Y. - Four persons were
killed and two were injured at $50
o'clock p. m, in grade crossing acct
dent on the Boston and Maine tracks
about mile north of Melrose, when
q train from Rutland struck a wagon
containing six persons. Mr.. and Mrs.
Frank Luther, of Schaghticoke;
Frank Roberts, of Melrose, and a
two-year-old child of the Luthers
were killed The injured are James
Luther, five years old, and Alden Luz
Their, six years old. The fatalities
we're caused by the deafness of Frank
Roberts, who was driving and failed
to hear the train.
Frank Roberts was brother of
Mrs. Luther and had been to Schagh-
ticoke visiting his sisters family. He
was driving to his home, in Melrose,
accompanied by the Luthers, who
were going to his home to attend a
family reunion The train hit the
wagon squarely and four of it's occu-
pants were instantly killed. Two of
the victims were carried along on the
cowcatcher The other two were
tossed down the embankment. One
of the horses was killed. The wagon
was shattered.
The bodies of the victims were hor-
ribly crushed. Coroner Hutton, of
Valley Falls, viewed the bodies, but
reserved decision pending an inquest.
The injured children were brought to

Washington, D. C.-The National
Conservation Commission has caused
the first comprehensive attempt at
census of the standing timber in the
United States ever undertaken. The
commission needs the information to
help complete its inventory of the
country's natural resources, which it
will include in its report to the Pres
ident, and since that report is to be
submitted on January 1 next it needs
the information at once. In conse-
quence the work on the census has
been started with a rush.
Estimates as to the amount of
standing timber in the United States
range all the way from S22,6S2, 0O0,-
900 to 1000, 900, 100000 board feet,
a difference of more than trillion
feet in the views of the best qualified
authorities in the country,
In the opinion of the forest service
the most carefully prepared estimates
yet made are those by Henry Gan
nett, published by the twelfth census
in 1900, which placed the total
stumpage at 1890, 900, 900, 900 board
feet. Mr. Gannett was recently cho-
sen by the President to compile all
the information gathered for the
commission. The census is expected

PUBLICITY SAVES LIVES ON RAILROADS
officials Find the wrecks Less frequent discipline Better

Chicago Publicity is credited
with having decreased accidents on
the Hartman system of roads be-
tween twenty and fifty per cent. with
in the past three years. This result
is indicated by a report made by
julius Kruttschnitt, director of main
tenance and operation, to E. H. Har-
riman, of novel plan which has been
tried on that system of roads.
Besides decreasing accidents, pub
1icity has served, 1t is said, to i'm
prove discipline and increase efficiency
and also has protected the roads
against newspaper Misrepresentation
and unfair hostility on the part of
communities. When the plan of CIV
ing the fullest publicity to wrecks
was first preached by Mr.. Krutt-
schnitt, it was coldly received on all
sides. Finally he succeeded in get
ting it tried on the Union Pacific, and
now all the Hartman lines follow it.
The new method depends for its
success largely upon speedily finding
out the cause of the accident, placing
the blame where it belongs and let
ting the public know all the news
papers care to tell about it. This
method is SO different from the one
usually employed by railroads that it
caused great deal of comment, but
Mr.. Kruttschnitt is firm believer in
the efficacy of public sentiment when
based upon a right understanding of
facts
When an accident occurs on any of
the Hartman roads the superin-
tendent, master mechanic and engi
neer of the division go at once to the
scene and organize board of inquiry,
composed of themselves and one or
more leading citizens of the commun-
ity. If this board fails to ascertain
the cause of the accident, second
board is formed of the general super
intendent, general superintendent of
motive power, engineer of main
tenance of way and one or more citi-
zens of the community. Should this
board in turn fail, third board is
formed with the general manager at
it's head. In only one instance has

1917 VICTIMS OF NEW YORK
RAILWAYS IN ONE MONTH
Report Shows There Were $3.50 Accidents in
City in August


New York City.-There were $3.50
railway accidents in New York City
in August, according to figures sub
mitted to the Public Service Commits
sion by it's secretary. They resulted
in the injury of 1917 persons. OF
that number 2247 were passengers.
$50 were railway employees and 531
were neither passengers nor en-
ployes. Forty-four persons were
killed, fifteen received fractured
skulls, four lost legs or arms, thirty
four had legs or arms broken and
dangerous injuries were inflicted on
1873 other persons. The total num-
Der of persons dangerously wounded
was 235.
The report shows there were dur.
ing the month 121 car collisions, 894
persons and vehicles struck by cars,
$50 persons injured when boarding
cars and 1888 when alighting from
cars. Forty-one of the victims were
hurt by getting in contact with cleo
tricity.

the general manager thus been called
upon to act.
The board of inquiry does it's work
quickly and not infrequently a news
paper representative is member.
The newspapers are furnished with
correct bulletin of the facts. This
practice has greatly diminished the
newspaper appetite for wreck data,
unless the accident is in reality big
story.
The effect upon the discipline has
been marked, for every man in the
operating department knows that If
he is derelict in his duty his home
community will know of it, and he
will be discredited among his friends.
Men can stand being hauled onto the
"carpet" in the general managers
Office, but they cannot stand the light
of local publicity.

GIRL FOUND SLAIN
ON EVE OF WEDDING
Mysterious Tragedy Occurs at
WadsWorth, Ohio.
ARMS OF BODY WERE FOLDED

Tracks of Horse With One Shoe Miss
ing Lead Police to Arrest Rich
Young Guy Rasor, Her Fiance,
For the Crime.
Wadsworth, Ohio.--A crime with
singular elements of mystery was
disclosed when the body of Miss Ora
Eta Lee, a girl of twenty, was found
on the highway, two miles from here,
with two bullet holes through her
head.
Guy Rasor, young man who be-
longs to a wealthy family, is in the
Medina County jail, held on suspi-
cion. He was to have married Miss
Lee, and got his license from the
authorities at Wooster.
The arrest of Rasor was brought
about by the fact that the footprints
of a horse with one of its shoes lack
ing were noticed in the road near the
body. There were also prints of car
riage wheels. showing that the ami
NAL had been driven to the place OF
the tragedy and hitched to the fence
and had then been turned around and
driven back in the direction whence
it came.
The authorities found in Rasop's
stable a horse with one of it's shoes
missing. The young man denies that
he saw his fiancee after the night
for their marriage.
That Miss Lees death was a muir
der and not suicide is proved by the
fact that her body was found with the
hands folded over the breast, and the
lower limbs Strengthened out, as IL
the corpse had been carefully ar
ranged after death Her dress suit
case was beside her on the ground.
Her handbag was still on her left
wrist. and her left hand clutched a
handkerchief There was no evidence
of struggle.
The police hesitate between two
theories; one that the girl was slain
by rival of Rasor's; the other that
she died as the result of a suicide
pact with Rasor himself They sus-
pect that he shot Miss Lee and then
lacked nerve to kill himself.
There are some circumstances, the
police say, which point to the fact
that the girl expected to be shot.
Mrs. George Stickler, a sister, asked
Miss Lee to stay with the baby while
she went to dance.
Il will if I'm not shot" Miss Lee
replied. Earlier in the evening the
girl, who had been hysterical all day,
said that she wished that she had the
nerve to kill herself. The girl left
the home with a satchel to take the
train for Rittman, where she said she
would stay until morning and then 60
to her grandmother's.
