SLIGHT SLUMP IN
LUMBER PRICES
SIOUX CITY DENsER REPORTS A
DECLINE IN COMMON GOODS.

Sioux City, May 15.-Common
lumber is a shade lower in price now
than it was early in the spring. Fin
ishing and oak remains about the
same and indications are that prices
of lumber will go no higher. The sit
uation in Sioux City was defined in
such way by j. w. Smith, secretary
of the Loonan Lumber company. Re-
ductions in the price of lumber have
been reorted from other cities in the
middle west.
"Some things have declined in
price and others have not" said Mr.
Smith. "Some of. the upper grades
are impossible to get. We have our
greatest trouble in getting finishing
lumber and oaw. Common lumber,
which composes the greater part of
the material used in building, is a
little weaker than it was early in the
spring. Though some kinds of lum-
Der have not been reduced, we do not
look for any advance in prices"
The price of lumber is largely a
matter of freight and labor, it is
said, 80 per cent of the price being
made up of those factors in many
instances. Though finishing and oak
are scarce, they continue to sell at
the same prices, lumber men state.
Should building in Sioux City be
taken up vigorously this summer the
lumber companies have sufficient
supply of materials.
"If We could get the banks to fl
nance some good homes" said Mr.
Smith, "the situation would be cas-
ier. Thoughs 4oney has been little
easier this week Than it was a few
weeks ago, only limited amount o1
ii is being loaned for home building
purposes.
THE United States is five years be
hind the times in the building game,
Mr.. Smith declared Il have been in
the lumber business for thirty years
and those who said they would wal
to build because il cost too much a
the time are waiting yet"

MANY PEOPLE
VISIT HOSPITAL
YESTERDAY WAS VISITORS DAY
AT THE NEW BUILDING.

About 1900 citizens took advan-
tage of the opportunity to visit the
new hospital yesterday afternoon.
Many people from surrounding
towns and the country side were here
to view the beautiful pageant of the
modern health crusade and took ad-
vantage of the opportunity to go
the new institution.
The weather was ideal and a trip
to the roof gave the spectators a
grand view of the city and surround
ing country The fertile landscape,
now showing green, with the lake and
towns in the distance, formed a
pleasing sight to look upon.
The work on this much needed
public enterprise is rapidly nearing
completion, and every one seemed
very favorably impressed with both
the building and the location, and
went away with the determination to
boost for the institution and help
put the subscription over the top on
Hospital Day, which is next Tuesday,
May IS.

GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS, RAIL
CHIEFS AND DIRECTOR BARNES
DISCUSS REORGANIZATION

Washington, May 15.-Cabinet Of
ficers, members of congress and the
interstate commerce commission and
railroad officials have been invited by
Julius II. Barnes, head of the Unit
ed States grain corporation, to con-
fer with him here on May 19 to dis
cuss plans for meeting the situation
resulting from the termination of the
grain corporation on June l.
"The approaching termination of
the three-year stabilizing influence of
the grain corporation requires most
earnest consideration" said Mr..
Barnes. Americas grain marketing
machinery and its large credit needs
formerly depended on the security af-
forded by hedging transactions in the
great grain markets." the wheat di-
rector continued, These hedging
markets will not be reinstated be-
cause of present hazards and the dis
organization of European forces and
the purchase of their bread supplies
by government officials, instead of
through private merchants, whose
thousands ofdiffering opinions intro
duced measure of cushioning
against violent price fluctuations.
"A conference May 7, of 400 repre-
sentatives of wheat handling and
manufacturing trades, bankers and
producers discussed this situation
menacing not alone the grain hand
ling but the credit structure of the
country, and the resulting possible
agricultural decentralization.
Il cannot face termination of my
office of wheat director without
bringing these conditions to the at
| tention o fthose who may devise
steps for their correction. These diff
ferences center about inadequate
Transportation and disturbed credits
resulting in widening trade margins
affecting producer and consumer and
possibly suspending the producer
market entirely from time to time
No over emphasis in my judgment
can possibly be laid on the need o.
some corrective step"

FAMILY Of EIGHT
KILLED BY FARMER
NORTH DAKOTA CRIME MYSTERY
HAS BEEN SOLVED-HENRY
LAYER ADMITS GUILT.

Washburn, n. D., May 15.-Henry
Layer, a farmer, has confessed to the
killing of Jacob Wolf, hist wife and
five children and a chore boy, Jake
Hoffer, on the Wolf farm three miles
west of Turtle Lake, n. D., on April
%, it was announced here by ]. E.
Williams, states attorney for Mclean
county.
III feeling of long standing, cul-
minating in a quarrel over injuries
administered to Layers cattle by
VOLTS dog, was responsible for the
crime, according to Mr.. Williams
version of the confession.
Layer, who is married and has six
children, and who owns a farm one
and half miles from the Wolf home,
was arrested Tuesday night at his
home. He was arraigned before
Judge w. l.. Nuessle in district court
here and sentenced to life imprison-
ment in the state penitentiary at Bis
marck. He was taken at once to
Bismarck to begin serving sentence.
According to Layers alleged con-
fesson to States Attorney Williams,
Layer said he went to the Wolf farm
shortly before noon on Thursday,
April %. Mr.. Williams declared
Layer said an argument followed and
Wolf demanded that Layer leave the
place at once.
Layer refused, according to the al
legged confession, and Wolf went into
the house and returned with a dou-
ble-barreled shotgun. Williams said
Layer declared he grasped the gun
and attempted to wrest it away from
Wolf. The struggle, it is said, took
place in the entrance to the kitchen
and the weapon was discharged twice.
| One of teh shots killed Mrs. Wolf
and the other Hofer, 13yearo
chore boy, Layer said, according to
Williams. BY this time Layer had
taken the gun away from Wolf, went
into the sitting room, obtained a
handful of shells from bureau
drawer and hurried outside. Layer
is alleged to have told Williams, and
Layer fired, the charge striking
Wolf in the back. Layer then shot
Wolf in the back as he lay on the
ground, according to the alleged con
lfession.
According to Williams, Layer sait
he then went to barn and shot two
of the girls while they pleaded fol
mercy.
Attracted by the screams of th'
three little girls in the house, Layer
according to his alleged confession
shot two of them and killed the thirt
with a hatchet.
Layer was charged with first de
gree murder and when arraigned be
fore Judge Nuessle pleaded guilty. HI
was sentenced to hard labor for lif
and arrived at the prison less thai
48 hours after his arrest.

BURNED BRIDGE
PER|LS 7 RAIN
VIGILANCE OF ENGINEER AND
THE CONDUCTOR PREVENTS
WRECK NEAR Villas.

7hmond, May 15 The vigilant
of Engineer Tom Lau-
ters, of North Western train No. /,
from Sioux City to Aberdeen, and
Conductor E. J. Gitchell, probably
prevented a very serious wreck and
possibly the loss of number of
lives.
AS the train neared bridge about
one and one-half miles south of Villas,
Lauters saw a heavy pail of smoke
rising into the air, evidently from the
bridge. He slowed down, approach
ing the bridge carefully, and found it
was on fire.
The main stringers were burned
away, leaving one of the rails with
out support for several feet, which
would have precipitated the big To-
comotive through the bridge to the
stream below.
For lack of material and workmen
it was necessary for the train to re-
main where it was until bridge
crew could come from Huron on a
special and repair the damage which
had been done to the bridge.
The train was stalled by the
burned bridge in the morning, aand il
was not until about o'clock in the
afternoon that the track and bridge
were repaired SO the train could pro-
ceed on it's way.

STATE M|LLERS
URGE SUPPORT
LACK OF PROPER SUPPORT
LAC KOF PROPER SUPPORT

Huron, May 15.-The South Da-
ing in this city, at which questions OF
importance to the members were dis
cussed.
State freight rates on grain COM
ing into South Dakota and products
going out of the state were among
the questions discussed.
The members agreed to cooperate
with the state marketing department
in an endeavor to urge both the re-
tailers and the consumers to use more
of the flour manufactured in South
Dakota.
Millers stated that under present
conditions the flour mills of the state
are compelled to market much OF
their product outside of South Da'
kota. 1t also stated that if the con-
sumers would purchase the South Da-
kota product they would save great
deal of money.
1t developed during the discussion
that stock feed which is shipped into
the state is costing from $S to $1t
more per ton than the same pr6duc,
raised in South Dakota and handled
by the millers.
According to some of the speaker!
two-thirds of the flour mills of Soutf
Dakota have been forced to close be
cause of lack of proper support of thI
people.

Lives, in Their Home

Hemingford, Neb., May 15.-Eight
people were drowned in their homes
at Ardmore, s. d., as a result of a
cloudburst, according to a report that
reached here this evening. No de-
tails have been received. A cloud
burst near here has taken out an en-
tire earth fill on the line Of the Bur
lington railroad. 1t will require a
bridge of five spans to connect the
tracks. Every bridge on the Mo
brara for so miles east and west is
out. There are many bad washouts
near Belmont in the Pine Ridge
country of South Dakota. The storm
around Hemingford was accompani-
ed by wind and hail, doing some
