AS the season for logging operation is
drawing to close, lumber companies
in this section are rushing the work
as much as possible on account of the
good market for their product. The
season has been an exceptionally diff
cult one for logging. Up to the mid
die of January conditions were favor
able but heavy SHOWS hindered work.
The cut will probably be considerably
smaller than was planned at the start
of the season.
Logging camps are being discon-
tinued now. The camps ofthe Wachs-
futh Lumber Company of Bayfield,
were discontinued during the last few
days, one on account OF heavy snow
and the other because the timber all
has been cut. 1t is probable that this
concern will have about 16,O0O, 900
feet of logs for summer and fall cut
ting at the Bayfield, mill Ashland

To Let Contract for Dock.

While the bids for the construct
ion of the new concrete ore dock
for the 500 railway were supposed
to have been let on the tenth of
this month it has been learned from
an authoritative source that few
minor changes have been made in
the plans and the bid will proba-
bly, be let about the 25th.
1t is reported that Foley Broth
ers of St. Paul, the largest CON
struction firm i'll the United States
and Canada will have the contract,
which will call for the completion
of the dock by September first of
this year. The 500 is anxious to
have the dock completed so that
ore shipments can be made the
coming season and Foley Brothers
it is said are the only firm which
have the necessary equipment to
insure the construction of the dock
within the time limit.
Foley Bros. were the firm which
constructed the Grand Trunk Pa
cific railroad in Canada which runs
from Halifax, Nova Scotia, to
Prince Rupert, British Columbia,
a distance of 3, 200 miles. They con-
structed the entire line within one
year, the contract price exceeding
seventy millions of dollars.

STEEL ORDERS INCREASE.
Estimates of Gain in Tonnage Nearly
100000 Tons for the Month
of January.

HS boston News recently states
that orders received by the United
States Steel corporation during Jam
uary were on very large scale,
ard despite the fact that the COM
pany's capacity to take on new bus
iness was affected by the enormous
contracts already or the books, and
the refusals of some business, which
necessarily followed, because the
deliveries requested could not be
given, it is considered absolutely
certain another big increase in un-
filled orders will be shown in the
statement to be made public next
week.
Estimates are already being made
as to the probable showing and
these range from 100000 to $780, :
900 tons. Although this will be
somewhat below the average for
the last few months, it ueverthe-
less would be remarkable when all
the facts are taken into considera-
tion. An increase of, say, 100000
tons, in orders, would bring the to-
tai gain since Oct. l last, or for
four months, up to approximately
2 800, 900 tons. This amount is
sufficient to keep the plants of the
corporation in full operation for
more than two and half months,
A gain of 100000 tons would
bring the total orders on the books
of the corporation at the end of jan
uary up to more than $685. 900
tons, or only about $4,000 tons
under the highest ever reported by
the company-8, ,48O,71 tons-on
Dec. 81, 1906.
Production of the corporation in
January, it is estimated, was at the
rate of about 48, 900 tons per day,
and an increase of 500,O tons in
orders would mean new business in
that month at the rate of nearly
10000 tons daily.
Earnings of the Steel corporation
in January, it is estimated in some
circles, amounted to about $19, ,O0O-
900, and many interests are fgur-
ing on 500, 900, 900 net for the first
quarter of this year. 1t is pointed
out that as the months pass, the
company will get the benefits of
the continual advances made dur
ing the last half of 1918. and the
net earnings for the second quarter
of this year. it is believed, will sur
pass those of the present three
months by substantial amount.
That the corporation will show
monthly increases during the first
three-quarters of this year is assur-
ed when it is remembered that the
orders on the books are sufficient
to keep the plants at capacity oper-
alton until the end of September,
at least. In reference to this, the
fact must not be lost sight of that
the present high prices for steel
products will not be realized by the
corporation until the third quarter,
and as many students of the steel
situation are looking for further
advances in prices and a continued
good demand, it may be said that
the outlook for any one year has
never been brighter in the history
of the big concern than is that for
1916.

DOZEN DIFFERENT
FLAGS ARE SEEN IN
PENSACOLA HARBOR
VERY UNUSUAL MIXTURE WAS
NOTED YESTERDAY WHEN OBJ
SERVING WATERFRONT yISI-
TORS BEGAN TO COUNT.

An even dozen different nation
alities were represented in shipping
in Pensacola harbor yesterday, and it
is possible that this condition exists
at very few of the greater ports of
the United States. Sea-faring men
were ready to admit, and did confess,
yesterday, that the diversity of flags
at Pensacola is possibly greater than
at many more ports of seeming more
Importance than this one.
Waterfront visitors and excursion
lists who spent some hours on the bay
yesterday got busy, and picked out
flags of the following nationalities:
Russia, Norway, Japan, Belgium,
British, Spanish, Italian, Germany,
Denmark, Austrian, Swedish, and the
Stars and Stripes.
Several vessels fly the Russian flag,
this color being carried by the largest
sailing vessel in the harbor. A fine
Belgian bark is moored in the rail-
road slip. The Japanese flag was
flown by steamship on the way to
Yokohama, which stopped in for coal,
while several fine sailing ships and a
steamer had the Norwegian flag
gaily presented, and the British flag
was at the masthead of several
steamers. One steamer and one sail
ing vessel carried the Spanish flag,
and the italian national emblem was
flown fser1 several steamers and sail
ing vessels. One steamer flew the
flag of Denmark, and at least one
ship, that of Sweden. Although
fighting for their very existence,
Germany and Austria are represented
in the local shipping, two German and
one Austrian steamers being informed,
while the United States flag was dis
played by at least two steamers and
large number of sailing vessels,
more of this flag being seen in this
harbor on deep-sea ships than is
usual.

SPECIAL TO THE Jo1TRNAL.

Mariana, Fla, Jan. 23.-The sec
ond weekly meeting of the Mariana
Boosters Club was the occasion for
much enthusiasm. Several projects
for city and sectional improvement
were discussed, among which were the
government building and the peanut
oil mill. Col. n. F. Thompson and
Mr.. j. Virgil Smith of Birmingham
were present in the interest of the
latter and made interesting addresses
outlining their plans for the building
of the plant, which they purpose to
make mutual concern. Col. Thomp-
son, who is also man of much ex
perience in civic improvement work,
gave some inspiring suggestions to
the club, based upon his work in
Birmingham, where he was secretary
of the Chamber of Commerce, and in
Atlanta and Johnstown, Pa, where
he was also engaged in a similar ca
pacity.
Plans for a spring chautauqua
were also under discussion and a
representative of one of the chau-
tauqua bureaus was addressing the
club when the fire alarm broke up the
meeting. The next meeting of the
club will be held on next Thursday
night.
