PULP WOOD EXPORTS
INCREASED BY CANADA
Price Advances While Quantity
Sold Gets Larger

Consul Gebhard Willrich, in his an
nual report from Quebec, discusses the
resources and supplies of pulp wood
and wood pulp in that province with
special relation to exports to the United
States:
The second largest article of export
during 1909 was wood pulp, represent
ing a value of nearly $1,000,000. The
statistics aptly illustrate the progress
made in this province in wood pulp
production during the last few years.
The value of wood pulp exported in
1907 amounted to $463,7S2, in 1908 to
S557,243, and in 1909 to S949,549, an
increase of over 100 per cent in two
years OF this product Great Britain in
1907 took in value s492,S4S; the United
States, S3S,700.S and France, S25, 700;
such exports to Great Britain in 1903
increased to sS47.176, those to France
to sS2,213, but TO the United States
showed a decrease from s3S,700 in 1908
to s19,100 in 1909.
These expectations of pulp to the
United States, however, do not include
those by rail, part of which were de-
clared at this consulate. The latter
were valued in 1908 at $e30,362 and in
1909 at s264,55S, an increase for 1903
of s34,196, indicating the increasing ca
pacity of Quebec's pulp mills to supply
pulp for export direct to the American
consumer. The great bulk of the pulp
exports from this district, it appears.
went to Great Britain, and will prob
able continue to go there for years to
come.
In striking contrast with the forego-
ing exports and their destination are
those of pulp wood. This wood is all
taken by the United States, as its bulk
prevents expectation across the ocean.
In 1908 there were exported by water
to the United States 3o,479 cords, val
ued at s197,662; in 1909, 80,7S1 cords,
valued at $625,s27, showing greatly in
creased quantities as we'll as consid-
erable increase in price per cord. Ex-
ports declared at this consulate of pulp
wood by water as well as by rail show
a value Of $636,1S6 during 1908, and of
s1,1SO,029 in 1909, making an increase
of s543,S43 for last year.
Even these two statements taken to-
gether will not give even an approx
mate idea of the pulp wood exports
from. this consular district to the
United States, owing to the practice of
many shippers to send large quantities es
of this wood to the states in shipments
under 800 in value which require no
consular invoices anj of which for that
reason. no record can be kept at con-
sular Offices.

SENDS TICKET TO HIS WIFE
But Sister Used 1t and She Will Be
Deported.

Columbus, Ohio. Feb. 11.-Joseph
Schoenborn of Youngstown steadily
declines to consider an imported sis
ter-in-law as a substitute for his wife,
and little Maria Nezibitokowa, twenty
years old, in consequence is in jail.
The immigration authorities have her,
alleging that she is an alien brought
here under false pretenses.
Schoenborn sent transportation to
his wife in Poland to enable her to
join him in his home. His amaZement
was intense, therefore, when little
Maria, with the remnant of Mrs.
Schoenborn's transportation in her
pocket, appeared in the stead Of his
beloved Bronislava The fact that she
was his wife's sister and pretty did
not stay him from entering bitter COM
plant to the immigration inspectors.
Investigation by the department
showed that she had entered the coun,
try as Mrs. Joseph Schoenborn,
bound for Youngstown to join her hus-
band" and the inspector who address
ed her says she innocently confessed
to purloining her sisters ticket, in a
natural desire to see the world
Schoenborn insisted that he wanted
his wife and no substitute, and under
orders issued from the immigration
bureau the girl is being held for de
portation.
