W.J.BR0WN ENDS
HIS own LIFE
Body is Found in Woods in
South Aberdeen Yesterday.
Missing Since Oct. 3

The body of w. ]. Brown, about
55 years of age, was found in
Union Pacific addition, South Aber.
deem, yesterday afternoon by Adam
Kunnezwkus. $40 Hartman street. in
badly decomposed condition. Dep
uty Sheriff Jos. Searles was notified
and he summoned Coroner Hunter
from Hoquiam, who quickly arrived
on the scene.
Everything gave the appearance of
suicide, a bullet hole being found in
the head. and Coroner Hunter found
22-calibre pistol lying nearby.
Brown had been missing from his
room, in the South Aberdeen hotel
since October 3, although the body
was in such decomposed state that
it was thought at first he had been
dead for couple of months. He was
dressed in a Macinaw coat and wool
pants, with good wool underwear. and
a pair of congress slippers.
He was identified by books show
ing he was a member of the Modern
Woodmen and Foresters of Amer
ica and giving his name. The sus-
picion of murder and robbery was
dissipated by finding on the body a
silver watch and chain. with an F. o.
E. charm and child's gold ring on
the chain. The body was removed
to the Whiteside morgue. where it
is held while efforts are made to To-
cate the relatives of the unfortunate
man.

1t was learned later that Brown
had a wife and two children in Chi
cago. from whom he had become
estranged, and that he had lived in
South Aberdeen for 13 years or more
being employed as mill watchman and
otherwise. In his effects was found
an insurance policy for $4,000, taken
out in the Modern Woodmen at Cen
tralia, May %, 1899, in favor of his
wife. Lena c. Brown, but which has
doubtless been allowed to lapse. His
full name as indicated in the applica-
tion for the insurance, was William
Johnson Brown, and he was born in
Pennsylvania in July, 1861.
The funeral took place at two
o'clock this afternoon, under the aus
pices of Court Grays Harbor, Forest
ers of America. of which he was a
member in good standing. Services
were held at the Whiteside chapel,

WIFE BEATER GOES TO
JAIL FOR THIRTY DAYS

Leo Makowski was sentenced by
Justice Philips after hearing last
night to 80 days in the county Jail.
Makowski. according to the evidence
has repeatedly beaten his wife. and
driven his children out of doors. Not
long ago three of the younger chill
dren walked and ran all the way from
the Paine place. where they formerly
lived near Junction City, to Aberdeen
on account of the cruelty of the father.
The mother was in court tonight with
a bloodshot eye, caused by a blow
from her husband. The children all
told Of the fathers acts Of cruelty.
After a severe arraignment Makowski
was sent to Jail with the promise of
more severe sentence If he did not
reform. The mother has been the
main support of the family for some
time.

CANAL MEANS
GREAT FUTURE
Tacoma Shipping Man Pre-
diets Great Development
of Northwest Coast
MANY NEW MARKETS
Another Discovery Of the
Pacific Coost is Due
Says Mr.. Alexander

TACOMA, Oct. 27. - with the
opening OF the Panama canal, the
Pacific cost is about to be discover
ed," said H. F. Alexander, president
of the Alaska Pacific Steamship com.
pany, who returned home last night
from an extended trip East during
which he closed negotiations for two
steamers for service out of this port.
"This is practically the feeling that
exists along the east coast of this
country and in the financial and busi-
ness centers of the East" continued
Mr.. Alexander. Undoubtedly the in
terest uppermost in the minds of the
people of the East is in the Panama
canal. Everyone is talking Pacific
Coast and the wonderful develop
ment that will result along this coast
with the opening of the canal. They
are more interested in the canal and
what its opening means to this coun-
try than the people of the Pacific
Coast. At least you can hear more
about it there than you can out here
For instance it is conceded that
the opening of the canal will witness a
tremendous influx of immigration to
this coast and the population will pre-
cede the development of lands. Not
only will the rural districts be filled
but the labor needs will be taken
care Of. They predict unparalleled
prosperity for the Coast for the next
few years. 1t is in the air and the
steamship lines are building vessels
with which they expect to do an enor-
nous business on this coast.
There is no doubt but that the lum-
ber industry. which is the backbone
of this part of the country, will reach
the greatest activity in its history
Not only will the markets Of the
North Atlantic be opened, but also
markets of the east coast of South
America and certain markets of Eu-
rope which do not exist at the present
time for our dealers on account of
competition.

NO SCARCITY OF
TIMBER SUPPLY
Wisconsin Timberman Saws
Talk Of Exhausting Timber
is all Moonshine

Mr.. w. G. Brown, a prominent mill
man of Wisconsin, although largely
interested in Oregon timber, is max
ing his annual visit to the coast,
says the Hoquiam Washingtonian. Mr..
Brown, in an interview given a Sc.
attic reporter, takes most hopeful
view of the lumber situation. He
thinks the opening of the Panama
canal will widen the market for our
lumber and shingles to such an ex-
tent that many new mills will be
built and the production trebled In
a comparatively short time.
This experienced gentleman says
the chief good the canal will bring
us will be this broadening of the
market, substantial reduction in
freight rates and a strong influence
to make the railroads be good" in
the way of furnisffg cars and CIV
ing better service. He does not ex-
pect the price of lumber to rise by
reason of the opening of the canal.
Mr.. Brown said one thing that may
be facer to the Pacific coast man
who is accustomed to refer to our
mills as the biggest in the world. He
said there were now building in Wis
consin, Michigan and Minnesota, big.
ger and better sawmills than anything
in that line of which the coast may
boast. He says there is plenty of
timber left in those states, but it is
in large holdings and in strong hands,
and the day of the small mill own
er is past He thinks lumber will
be manufactured back there for a
great many years yet, and that the
timber supply of the Northwest will
last for century or longer
The Wisconsin man. who is famil-
lar with Grays Harbor. says he has
been told that there is more untouch-
ed timber between the Harbor and
the Straits of Juan de Fuca than there
was in the state of Michigan, before
a tree was cut, and that the saws will
be humming here long after the chill
dren born today are gathered to their
fathers.

SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING
West End Property Owners viii Meet
Tonight With City Council to
Discuss the Situation

A special meeting of the city coun-
Gil was held Saturday night to dis
cuss the claim of the Tacoma Dredg-
ing Co.. for final settlement for the
filling of the west end, at which it
was decided to invite the property
owners in the district to meet with
the council tonight and talk the mat.
ter over.
This contention between the city
and the dredging company has been
long drawn out, and the company
wants decision. The city has held
back payment Of $4,000 pending the
completion of the contract according
to specifications. The company says
this has been done. but the city. and
residents of the district say not, and
it is doubtful II the different views
can be adjusted out OF court.
