DEMAND FOR PINE
 REPORTED BETTER
Orders from Retail Yards Reflect General Improve: ::
 ment in Conditions. j..

The Southern Lumberman,;ss Nash. vile, Tenn, says regardin& vel low: pine lumber market conditions. =
 The market for yellow pins lumber which has been held back for the past three weeks on account of weather conditions now bids fair to show steady improvement as spring ap breaches and outdoor construction work again becomes possible East of-the-river mills make more encour- aging reports this week. The call from retail yards served by these mills has slightly increased, and at Blrm- ingham there has been detected what is hoped is the beginning of railroad buying. At Savannah and Pcnsacola the volume of coastwise .shippinA has considerably increased, while the ex- port business from the latter port and from Mobile has been an important factor. This is being done in sailing vessels almost entirely, but the lum- her and timber is nevertheless 1MOv- ing. Gulfport has also come in for a good share of this business. The in- creased movement of cotton has help ed financial conditions generally in the South. In the Southwest no changes 1 of importance have occurred. The weather has prevented any general buying on tho part of retail yards in the Middle West, and the various as- sociation meetings of retailers have also some what interrupted business. Reports from Texas and Louisiana are more optimistic, however, and the high price of wheat, with the good crop coming on, is relied on to produce good trade in the Kansas City terr,- tory throughout the rest of the year.
 The few price changes noted are well scattered through the list. both advances and reductions being shown. thcst increases or decreases being dua p!ore to stock conditions than to any special shifting of demand. The ag- gregate of production at Southern
 mills is little changed since January i. A number of mills which were idle before Christmas have resumed opera
 ton, but they for the most part are not among the largest mills, and the big ones that are running again after a period of idleness are not ordinarily operating at full capacity but are holding down their cut to the current demand, while some of the larger mills that were running double shift have now laid off their night crews. All of which is keeping the cut very we'll in line with demand and those buyers who have come into the mar
 ket since the first of the year have found that there is little surplus stock on hand.
 Mills in tho Southeast report slight ly better prices for the higher grades of flooring, but the lower grades are
 selling at about the same figures that } have prevailed for the past several

 That mems clothing, shoes and un- derwear are badly needed by worthy men who are out of work, was again stressed last night by officers of the Volunteers of America, who issued another appeal that such stuff be Go mated to them or to the Associated Charities for distribution.
 There are a number of transient men, and many men who belong in Pine Bluff, who are said to be suffer- ing severely because of lack of sufii- cient' clothing, and the volunteers and Charities are both overrun with pleas for assistance along this line.
 The appeal urges citizens to tele- phone where such stuff can be had calling the Volunteers at 1881, and the Charities at 1860, and someone will be sent for the clothing.

 The negro stated yesterday that he was on his way home, and as he ap- preached dark spot, he heard the voices of two men. As precaution- ary measure, he grasped his pistol. III moment man stepped ill front of him, and called, Halt" The ne- gro raised his weapon, and the high wayman backed away, startled and surprised. When he thought he had a chance to escape, the negro turned and made off. The highwayman and his pal both opened fire, and the ne- gro fired two or three shots in re- turn, but evidently neither highway man was struck.
 The pistol shots were heard all over the western portion of the city Sun day evening, but not until the negro told his story to several of his white friends was an explanation offered for the shooting.

 There was no report of the affair made to the police by Williams until Sunday night, when the police visited the car-barns while on the search rol the street car bandit. Then Will Hams mentioned incidentally that ht had been robbed.
 Williams stated that he was walking east on East BarrAQue street, ano had just passed Washington street when he was struck from behind, hi' assailants stepping from behind some posts as he passed. He was dazed bj the blows, and the two men he says
