BIG CUT IN
LUMBER RATES
Becomes Effective August is
and Will Help Local Lum-
Der Industry.

SEATTLE. Wash. July ga
Sweeping reductions in the rates on
forest production from points in
Idaho and Montana to the consum-
ing markets in North Dakota and
South Dakota. western Minnesota,
Nebraska and other middle western
states. with no corresponding Teduc-
tons from the coast shipping points,
are contained in the new trans-cOn-
tinental freight bureau lumber and
single tariff. which becomes effec-
tive August Is. The new tariff SEIZED
ule shows that the Great Northern
and Northern Pacific railroads have
made sharp reductions to points in
the middle west to which the Chi
cago, Milwaukee & Puget Sound rail-
road cut the rates on lumber ana
shingles. The lumbermen today de-
elared that the new rate will be dis
astrous TO the coast mills and that
it will likely result in the loss OF
more trade.

HOLDUP CASE DE-
CISION SATURDAY
Judge EgbePs Will Look Into
Evidence Before
Deciding.

The preliminary examination of
Horace Peyton, Percy Thompson and
Marshall Nielan, charged with rob-
bling Charles Reyn last Saturday
night, was concluded late yesterday
afternoon. The prosecution, after
introducing the evidence Of Night
Patrolman Steel, who arrested the
defendants, and also that of George
Sanders and Special Ot1cer Kaufman,
in addition to that of Reyn and Cap
tain Knapp, rested its case. C. l..
Hoffman submitted a motion that the
defendants be discharged because of
lack of evidence, but it was over
ruled and the defense then placed
several witnesses on the stand to
prove an alibi for Peyton. The two
witnesses were Florence Wigart, of
this city, and Esther Sandberg, of
Spokane. Both testified that at the
time the robbery was committed they
we're engaged in conversation with
Peyton in front of the Silver Grill.
Judge Egbers has taken the case
under advisement until 10 o'clock
Saturday morning.

Government to Make Tests of Green
and Burned Timber.
WASHINGTON, D. c., July "a
How long will timber remain COM
mercially valuable after it has been
swept over by a forest fire? Tim
Der land owners, as we'll as the fed
sral government, are much interested
in obtaining this information, and
the government has just begun an
Investigation of a large number of
fre areas in Oregon and Washington
In order to determine. II possible, the
length of time which will elapse
after a forest fire before the timber
deteriorates to such condition as to
decrease it's commercial value.
The agencies which cause timber
to decay and encourage the attack Of
wood borers are undoubtedly infiu-
enced to a greater or less degree by
the intensity of the original fire and
the climatic conditions and altitude
Of the burned areas.
All the information in connection
with this investigation will be OBJ
tained first hand by the forest serv-
Ice, either from government timber
land or from private holdings where
logging operations are unedr way.
In this connection the forest serv-
Ice has also undertaken an investi-
cation to determine the relative
strength of green and fire-killed tim
Der. The material which is TO be
tested is being sawed at a mill OF the
Eastern & Western Lumber COM
pany, of Portland. Ore. where it will
