SHERIFF MAY BE IMPEAcHED,

MONTGOMERY, Ala, April 2S.-
Whether Sheriff Cazalas, Of Mobile.
shall be impeached for alleged neg
lect of duty will be determined at a
hearing set down for tomorrow be-
fore the supreme court in this city.
The Sheriff is charged with careless
ness in allowing a negro named
Robertson to be lynched by mob on
January % last.
A petition to Governor Conner set
out that the Sheriff had left the city
and failed to give the Jail proper
guard and as result the Governor
called upon the Attorney-General to
make motion for impeachment'
which must be by the supreme court,
according to the new constitution.
A very large number of leading
Mobile citizens have also petitioned
the Governor in behalf Of Sheriff
Cazalas. The victim of the mob's
vengeance had for years been known
as desperate negro, The crime for
which he was awaiting trial was the
killing of deputy sheriff and the
serious wounding of another officer.

Decided 10 Reduce the Output
Forty Per-centUntiI Market
Shows Demand
LOGGING CAMPS SHUT DOWN
Lack Of Demand in the East and
Middle West is Responsible For
the Action Taken by the Lumber
Manufacturers.

SEATTLE, April 28.-Owing to a
decrease in orders and an overstock-
ed market meeting of the lumber
manufacturers Of Oregon, Washing
ington and Idaho was held here to-
day te consider the question con
fronting the mill men and manufac-
turers. Twenty-six Of the leading
lumber manufacturers were present.
The question was considered at
length and the situation thoroughly
discussed. The lack of demand for
the lumber output in the east and
middle west, as well as a curtailment
of orders from foreign countries,
charged with the responsibility Of
the curtailment, resulted in the meet
ing deciding to curtail the output.
The agreement will go into effect
within the next few days, and as soon
as preemptory orders are filed by a
few Of the manufacturers.
The result will be, that at least
one-third Of the saw mills in Oregon.
Washington and Idaho will close
down indefinitely, or until such time
as the market shows better tone.
The action taken will result in clos
ing down a number Of logging camps.
but will not effect those who have
contracts for supplying logs. A num-
Der of camps will close down May
lst and will remain closed until or
ders for resumption are received
from the manufacturers, 1t is also
limited. that the action taken is the
result of the uncertainty of the tar
iff agitation in congress. When the
tariff bill is finally disposed of so
that the manufacturers will known
where they are at resumption will
probably be ordered.
