OBJECTIONABLE CLAUSE MODIFIED.
The Felt Makers’ Association Has Voted to Yield to the Protests of the Paper Stock Dealers and Suspend the “‘Rejection”’ Clause Till the Next Meeting to Be Held in March.
At the meeting of the Felt Makers’ Association held at the La- fayette Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y., Tuesday, January 8, one of the subjects discussed was a communication from the paper stock dealers relative to the recent circular of the felt makers. Owing to the fact that some members of the Felt Makers’ Association were unable to be present there was not a full, meeting, and no final action was taken. Pending their next regular meeting in March the felt makers have, however, modified the terms of their present classification relative to the rejection of stock containing prohibited material. In a general way it is understood that in con- sideration of the mills agreeing not to return any stock, without an effort being made to make a settlement on the merits of the case, the stock dealers have consented that any prohibited material found in the bales shall be charged back at the invoice price, plus freight. It is expected that this new arrangement will work out to thé satisfaction of both mills and packers, who seem desirous of co- operating with one another in their efforts to improve the packing Under*the former arrangement, stock containing any prohibited material was subject to rejection, entailing heavy expense on the shipper, and taking away from the mill goods which they might have used to advantage at a proper allowance. If the new arrangement works satisfactorily, it is expected that the felt makers will take some final action in the matter at their next regular meeting, but until that time no new circular will be issued. It is expected that the New York Paper Stock Dealers’ Associa- tion will indorse the action of the mills at their regular meeting this week
of the goods.
Philadelphia Stock Men “Chew the Rag.”
[FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT. ]
PHILADELPHIA, January 15, 1907.—The meeting of the paper stock dealers on Thursday evening last was at once the most im- portant and the most interesting held in the history of that or- ganization. Indeed, such a mine of value to all in the trade was opened up that when adjournment came late at night it was not until the next month, but to the next week, and on Thursday evening next there will be a continuation, and it is hoped a con- clusion.
A programme for the meeting had been decided on, but the programme went by the board. For long before Edward Heming- way and D. I. Murphy were to have read formal papers on trade topics the question so long pending before the association—the re- lationship of the stock jobber, particularly those handling rags with the mills—was raised, and from that moment until the meet- ing closed there was not time for anything else. On the part of the rag dealers generally there is a feeling that the mills are not equitable in passing on the grading of stock. Many complaints were made, specifically by Edward Corner and others, along this These opened up the whole subject, and for several hours nearly everyone present participated in the general discussion. Be- cause that discussion finally ended wide of the mark of the as- sociation’s purpose and because no conclusion was reached, it was decided to take up the whole matter anew at the meeting on Thurs- day night of this week and to endeavor at that time to proceed in a definite way and to a conclusion. It is believed that this meet- ing will be the largest in point of attendance that has been held, and that a resolution suggested at the last meeting, but not even framed, will be taken up and passed as an expression of the atti- tude which the jobbers propose to take toward the mills. There is
line
little doubt that unity of action can be secured, for the grievan the jobbers have are universal. At the continued meeting, if th be time, Messrs. Hemingway and Murphy will read the papers t! were asked to prepare. E.R. G
Wiping Out Some of American Writing’s Common.
Boston, Mass., January 15, 1907.—Directors of the Americ Writing Paper Company have voted to recommend to stockholder that at the annual meeting, to be held February 12 in Eas: Orange, N. J., the total authorized capital stock of the compan now fixed at $25,000,000, be reduced to $22,000,000 by reduci: the common stock (of which $1,000,000 has never been issued) to $9,500,000, and retiring and cancelling $2,000,000 of the issue: common stock, which is now owned by the company and held i: its treasury.
Another Advance in Manilas ?
A special meeting of the executive board of the Manila and Fibre Association will be held in New York tomorrow, Friday The meeting has been called for the discussion of trade affairs in general. In the trade it was rumored that prices would be ad vanced again as a result of this meeting. At the last meeting of the association there were twenty-seven board members present. and out of this number twenty-six voted at that time in favor of an advance. It requires a unanimous vote to carry any question before the board, and the one dissenting vote ruined the chances for another increase at that meeting.
C. S. Boyd Paper Company Incorporated. [FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT.]
AppLeton, Wis., January 14, 1907.—The C. S. Boyd Paper Com- pany, which was not previously incorporated, was, incorporated last week, the incorporators being C. S. Boyd, Robert F. Boyd and John Lowe. C. S. Boyd, who founded the business at Kau- kauna, of course remains at the head of it; Robert F. Boyd is his brother, who represents the Moser Paper Company, of Chi- cago, on the road, and John Lowe is the superintendent of the plant. During its comparatively short career thus far the C. S. Boyd Paper Company has built up a fine business, its specialty being cover papers, both plain and of higher quality.
Fox River.
Holyoke Enjoying Full Flow of Water. [FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT.] Hotyoke, Mass., January 15, 1907.—Holyoke has gone for a week without restrictions as to the use of water having been placed
upon the mills by the Holyoke Water Power Company. It was stated at the office of the company today that restrictions would not be stated whether the mills would be able to run through the not be stated whether the mils would be able to run through the week without restrictions. There was a belief that slight re- strictions would be needed if cold weather set in for any length of time. It is understood in this city that the ice in the pond at Turners Falls is breaking up somewhat, and that with any slight increase in the flow of the river it would go out of the pond. The Holyoke canals are very free from ice, and with severe weather the flow of water will be choked off materially. Ferry.

TALC CONSOLIDATION.
The International Pulp Preparing to Absorb the Union Talc Company.
Meetings for Arranging the Final Details of the Proposed Consoli- dation Are Scheduled to Take Place This Week—The Inter- national Will Have a Monopoly—Ontario May Come In.
Negotiations are now pending which mean, according to in- formation from a most reliable source, the absorption of the Union Tale Company by the International Pulp Company, giving the latter concern practically a complete monopoly of the fibrous talc business of the United States.
A meeting of the controlling interests in both companies will be held probably in New York this week, at which time it is said the deal will be completed. By this deal the International will increase its production to about 200 tons per day, or about 99 per cent. of the total production of paper makers’ tale. The only in- dependent producer and competitor left in the field will be the On- tario Tale Company, of Gouverneur, N. Y., a comparatively small concern with an output of about 15 tons per day.
There were several meetings of the officials of this company with those of the International a short time ago, and the ultimate outcome of these conferences will no doubt be the inclusion of the Ontario Company in the combine also.
The Union Tale Company was incorporated in 1900 with a cap- ital of $1,000,000. The officers are C. E. Locke, president, and S. E. Locke, secretary and treasurer. President Locke is the controlling factor in the company, which has always been known as a close corporation. After it was organized the company ob- tained by purchase the business and properties of the Columbia Tale Company, American Pulp Company and Keller Brothers, all located at Gouverneur, N. Y. The capacity of these combined mills was about 100 tons per day of fine ground agalite. Previous to the pyrchasing of these three mills, which were then in active opera- tion, they were worked under a time contract agreement by the International Pulp Company, and this-agreement had just expired when they were taken over by the Union Tale Company. The three mines controlled by the company are known as the Balmat, Wight and Arnold properties, and include an enormous area of talc deposits. The American mill, with an output of about 35 tons per day, was burned in December, 1905. This mill was operated by steam and the other two by water power. One of the serious han- dicaps which the company has had to contend with is the somewhat isolated location of its mills, all of which are some distance from the nearest railroad. This has necessitated an extra expense for the hauling of the product to the shipping point.
Since the inception of the company Charles Beebe has been gen- eral sales manager, with entire charge of the marketing of the company’s product both in this country and in Europe. At today’s advanced prices the company is in a prosperous condition, and new business is increasing so rapidly that the mills are considerably behind in their deliveries.
The International Pulp Company has been considered the lead- ing factor in the talc industry since it was organized in 1893 with i capital of $5,000,000. *It was the original intention of the pro- moters of this company to absorb all the tale properties in and iround Gouverneur, N. Y., but a few of the mine owners refused to consider the disposal of their mills, which defeated the plans f the International people to secure a monopoly at that time. Chose that the company did acquire in 1893 were the Agalite Fibre Company, Adirondack Pulp Company, St. Lawrence Pulp Com- pany and the Natural Dam Pulp Company. In 1894 the company
PAPER TRADE JOURNAL 7
got control of the Asbestos Pulp Company. The few mills that were not included and which were later absorbed by the Union Talc Company agreed to market their talc through the International on a time contract agreement. The Adirondack mill of the company was burned about 1895 and was never rebuilt, being supplanted by an electric light and power plant. The original production of the company was about 100 tons per day. This was greatly increased by the building of the Hailsboro mill. It was named the “White Elephant,” and was considered the largest and best equipped talc mill in the country. It had an output of about 75 tons per day This mill was entirely destroyed by fire in July, 1906, and was a very heavy loss to the company. In August, 1906, the International secured control of the United States Talc Company, with a pro- duction of about 25 tons per day, and which has since been increased by additional equipment. Michael Doyle, of Rochester, N. Y., is president and the largest stockholder in the International Pulp Company. With the acquisiton of the Union Tale Company the International will be master of the fibrous talc business.

New England Paper Jobbers Meet Tonight. [FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT. ]
Boston, Mass., January 15, 1907—The Boston Paper Jobbers’ Association, or rather, the New England Paper Jobbers’ Associa- tin, since the name has been changed in keeping with the enlarged scope of the organization, will hold its annual meeting on Thurs- day evening of this week at Hotel Bellevue, Boston, when a new list of officers for the ensuing year will be elected. The meeting will be informal—just a business meeting in business garb, and it will be all business. Some of the officials of the New York association and of the National organization are expected to be present. Besides the Boston trade, a number of prominent dealers from the leading New England cities are expected at the meeting.

Progress Reported in Organizing Holyoke Paper Makers.’ [FRom OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT. ]
Hotyoxe, Mass., January 15, 1907—A meeting of Eagle Lodge of Paper Makers was held in Holyoke Sunday afternoon to listen to a report of progress that was to have been made on the re- vival of the lodge and the incorporation of the organization under the new ideas that W. E. Terry, national organizer of the Amer- ican Federation of Labor, has been working out. On account of the illness of Mr. Terry very little was done at the meeting. The organization has not been completed, and it will require some time to perfect it.
It is reported that in cases where the machines are run twenty- four hours a day, and where men are compelled to work the two shifts, as at present, a demand will be made upon the manufac- turers for three shifts of eight hours in place of the two shifts now being operated. Little can be ascertained as to the standing of the present members of the lodge on this question or the feel- ing of the manufacturers toward it, but it is believed that the lodge will meet with considerable opposition before the demand, if made at once, is granted.

RENEWED MARKET ACTIVITY.
Firm in Boston—No Surplus Stocks in Chicago—Active in Phil- adelphia—Exceedingly Good in Miami Valley—Business Good in Fox Valley—Canadian Market Strong.
All branches of the paper trade, according to the statements of the manufacturers and dealers, show signs this week which in- dicate a resumption of the general activity of last year within the next few weeks. They all admit that the market has been rather quiet since the holidays, but they say the outlook is just as promising, and that they have no reason to believe that a general The stringency which was caused by the scarcity of raw materials is not now so pressing as it short time ago, and some materials are at present moving more freely.

The manila and fibre manufacturers will probably hold their regular meeting the latter part of this week. All the advanced prices are being firmly maintained, and the manufacturers display a steadfast confidence in the future prospects of the paper market The jobbing trade is just as confident, and preparations for hand- ling a big demand continue. Stock inventorying is about com- plete, and most of the dealers found that their supplies on hand were very nearly exhausted. With the improved car facilities delayed orders are coming forward with more regularity, and jobbers are replenishing their reduced stocks.

A Falling Off of Orders at Holyoke.
Western Massachusetts Office Tue Parer Trave Journat, Horyoxe, Mass., January 15, 1907 =!
The mills in this section have noticed somewhat of a falling off in orders during the past week, probably owing to the new year coming in and the buyers desiring to know just where they stand before placing orders for the future. Mill men say that gen- erally orders have a tendency to drop off at this time of the year, and that for a few weeks it is to be expected that business will be slightly dull. It is not expected, however, that trade will recede materially from its present condition, which is reported to be much better than it was a year ago. The winter has been such a good one for trade that manufacturers in general will not com- plain if business lets up for a time. In fact many of them will be glad of it. ¥
It is reported that the American Writing Paper Company con- tinues to have a nice trade, and that business with the better lines of paper is better than was expected. There has been a good de- mand for the book papers made by the company, while, as stated, the fine grades have sold well.
The past week has been a satisfactory one for the Whiting Paper Company at all of the mills. The Holyoke mills have been quite busy, and the mills of the Collins Manufacturing Company
at North Wilbraham have been running full time. promises well for these mills.
The Carew Manufacturing Company at South Hadley Falls h been running full time, and it is stated that business, while mn as brisk as it has been, has not shown the falling off that was | be expected at the beginning of the year. The Hampshire Pap: Company in that town also reports a satisfactory trade.
The Crane Brothers’ mills in Westfield report a fair trade ii the fine grades of paper.
The mont
The mills have been running on a fu! line of orders all of the season, and, the business of the year is reported to have been better than at any time in the history of the company. There has been a decrease in trade during the last few days, but the depression is regarded as temporary only, and was to be expected.
The Crocker-McElwain Company, of this city, has run its mill full time during the past week. Trade is reported good. The company has orders in hand for future shipment, and by the tim: that the new machine is ready for operation trade will have again recovered from the temporary dullness, and the company will be ready to receive all of the orders that may be given it.
The Esleeck Manufacturing Company at Turners Falls has had a good week in its typewriter papers, and the demand seems quite steady.
The B. D. Rising Paper Company at Housatonic is filling many good orders. This mill, which is one of the newest in western Massachusetts, has been handling a very satisfactory trade.
The mills of the Byron Weston Company at Dalton handle about the same number of orders each month, and January thus far has been a good month. The advent of C. S. Hemingway's con nection with the mill among the salesmen will be pleasant news to his many Holyoke friends, who have known him fog many years. Ferry.
Firm Tone to the Boston Market.
Eastern Office Tue Parzen Trapve Journat, } Arco Building, 127 Federal Street, » Boston, January 15, 1907. }
The jobbing distribution of paper just at present is not as heavy as during last month, and yet business is by no means dull, since the daily routine of trade is of fairly good volume. The tem- porary “let up” from certain quarters now being experienced is but a repetition of conditions usual during the early part of Jan- uary. Inquiries, however, are quite numerous from prospective buyers, from which it is inferréd that the outlook for the im- mediate future is very-encouraging. The weather so far this sea- son has been very favorable to the manufacturing branch of the trade throughout New England, water being in fairly good sup- ply, with no trouble from ice, except possibly in Maine, where the grinding of wood pulp has been curtailed a little. Shipments from mills have been very freely received of late, owing to improve- ment in railroad transportation. Every mill representative seen recently reports good business, mills running full, and production moving as quickly as cars can be loaded. The tone of the market is naturally very fine because of conditions now ruling, and mat- ters are being so shaped that manufacturers are not inclined to book their product very far ahead at present prices. Dealers are watc" ing prospective developments with close interest, that they may qu‘ckly adjust themselves thereto. DELESDERNIER.

RENEWED MARKET ACTIVITY.
(Continued from page 8.) terial are now Tunning up to their utmost capacity, and many are booking orders weeks ahead.
“A situation exists at present which has seldom held before at this season of the year,” said one of the leading paper men yesterday. “The jobbers have used up all of their stock, and of them have warehouses that are almost empty. The re- sult is that the demand for supplies for them is insistent. They must be stocked up again, and the mills must also care for the demand, which will
many
increase as the season progresses. Every person in every line of business is active and all of them need paper.”
The car shortages have been somewhat ameliorated on account of the unusual agitation of the past few weeks, and the mill men sincerely hope that the efforts of the committee which is now in
Washington will be fruitful of good results. Woon.
Active Demand for Present Consumption in Philadelphia. [FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT. ]
PHILADELPHIA, January 15, 1907.—No year ever began with con- ditions in the paper trade so satisfactory to both the mill men atid the jobbers as this vear. A week or more ago it was believed that the large orders which were fairly pouring in were due to the anxiety of both the jobbers and the consumer to take advantage of the rising market and to accumulate stocks before there were fur- ther advances. But a clearer analysis of the character of demand seems to show that the increased business was due not so much to provision against the future as to actual everyday demand. This condition is most pleasing to the mill men, for most of them con- sider it far healthier than a season of reckless buying, to be fol- lowed perhaps by an overstocking and a reaction along in June and July. They believe that in the absence of an unhealthy boom de- mand will continue so good that it will this year tide over the usual summer stagnation.
The stories told by the jobbers seem to bear out this view of the mill men. All speak of receiving large orders, but these are ap- parently for present, not for future, needs. The result is that the market is firm all along the line, especially for the better grades of books and wrappings. An exceptionally large volume of orders for sheathing and other building papers for spring de- livery is being taken, not so much in anticipation of a rise in price, because this market has not yet lost its demoralization, but be- cause of the enormous demand which it is felt the general pros- perity and increase in building operations will create. Local mills are chock full of orders, and should demand continue as it has an increase in price may be expected. E. R. G.
Trade in Miami Valley “ Exceedingly Good.”
[FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT. ]
Dayton, Ohio, January 15, 1907.—Conditions during the week have not been extraordinary, unless it is regarded as out of the ordinary that business should be exceedingly good. The reign of prosperity has been so great that it is almost impossible to report Yet it is apparent that affairs are not mov- ing along any better than they should, and some expectations have not been realized.
any other situation.
While the past year was a record breaker in the matter of the volume of trade, it had been known all along by many of the mill men and wholesalers who kept in touch with their ledgers that profits were not what they should have been. The impetus came too late, but now is the time when all starts off auspiciously, and more money, it is argued, should be made by the paper trade jn general than for a whole decade. Perhaps this is not saying much, so make it a score of years, to clinch the prospects !
There are some shrewd ones in our midst, and they perceive ahead of them one glaring danger. In the words of one of the

You can guess that any little too far all can but admit that organizations should be beneficial, for y branch of industry has not its association? Some industries probably burdened with them, and I am not saying just 1 whether the paper men are or not.
“There was a time when such a large organization as United Box Board and Paper Company attempted to control market by making a big advance in prices. The only trouble that, in my opinion, as well as that of others, no doubt, the advance was too big. If the associations which intend to incr: prices would go by easy stages it would be to their credit, and | the everlasting benefit of the trade.
“We can stand these average advances, but the suddenly larg ones are too much for the average tradesman, and I think will tell you so.
“What would you do should you be in a wholesaler’s plac: for instance, and you received a letter to duplicate the previ order?

Next comes a letter of protest More 2 cent stamps are bought, more stationery used, more time wasted, and you finally give up in despair, because the buyer rm fuses to pay more for the duplicate order than he did a coupk of weeks before. Who is the loser, the buyer or the seller? The chances are the dealer loses a good customer, though if the ad vances continue steadily, and this same buyer follows his method of doing business, he'll have to round up somewhere. But he is getting the advantage while it lasts.
“Yes, sir, | am for substantial advances, but not the big ones made at one jump. Let us go by easy stages and see how much more we accomplish.”
Business on all of the better grades is greatly improved in nearly all mill centres. M. V
Business Too Good in Fox Valley. [FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT. ] AppLeton, Wis., January 14, 1907.—A year ago, or even a short six months ago, no one would have thought that the necessity would ever arise for trying to head off business and shunt it in
‘some other direction, rather than offer every possible inducement
to get it to come to one. Yet this is what is now happening in
some instances.
said a manufacturer to me today; “business got to be actually too good, and I had to go down there to beg off from some of the commitments our
customers wanted us to take on.
“T was in Chicago several days last week,”
I never saw such a feeling in Chicago before of confidence in the future of the business situa tion. Everybody there in the paper business is taking off his coat, and preparing to make this year the biggest thing in a business way that ever happened. It is practically all one way, there ar no clouds in sight, and dealers in every kind of paper seem to feel The year 1907 is going to make a record that will leave every other year 'way back out of sight.”

14 PAPER TRADE JOURNAL A $1,000,000 PLANT FOR SCRANTON.
According to Reports from That City a Company Has Been Or- ganized to Erect a Mill for Making Chemically Prepared Pa- per—To Have Daily Capacity of 20,000 Pounds.
Scranton, Pa., January 15, 1907.—This city is to have a $1,000,- 000 industry. A plant to be capitalized at that figure, with the capital all subscribed, is a certainty. Most of the stock is held in this city, and the new industry will probably be located at Virginia Station on the Laurel Line.
The Miles Manufacturing Company is the name of the new en- terprise. The product of the plant will be a chemically prepared paper that.is air proof, water proof, grease proof and proof against mild acids and alkalies. Plans for the buildings, which are to be of concrete, are prepared, and the specifications for the machinery are also ready. The condition of the weather prevents the erec- tion of the buildings, which will not be begun until the advent of milder weather.
The process to be employed in manufacture is a chemical secret that many have tried unavailingly to solve. Any kind of paper can be treated, and the plant that is to be erected will have a capacity of about 20,000 pounds a day. Orders for the entire prod- uct of the plant are booked for an indefinite period. Other papers are supposed to be water proof, but the advantages of paper made under the new process are cheapness as compared to anything else in the market, and the guarantee that it is proof against penetra- tion. The names of the men who are stockholders in the new company, and the further fact that they have never exploited their project, though ready to engage in business, indicate a high de- gree of confidence.
C. S. Seamans, of the Scranton Board of Trade, was spoken to today with regard to the new company. Mr. Seamans said that he was familiar with the proposition, and cited the case of an out of town man who had $50,000 to invest. After a thorough investiga- tion this gentleman invested his money and desired that his in- fluence should be cast for building the new plant in this city.
Another great advantage of this new process is the strengthening effect it has on paper treated. All kinds of paper may be treated, the increased strength varying with the grade of paper. The strength of paper to which this process is’ applied is increased 200 per cent. and upward, while in the case of wet paper this strength is increased by more than 100 per cent., showing a wonderful re- versal from paper in use generally, dry paper being far stronger than wet paper.
The new plant will employ about 100 hands to start with.
Investigating Alleged Abuses in Second Class Mail. [FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT. ]
Cuicaco, Ill., January 15, 1907.—Congressman Martin B. Mad- den, of the First Congressional District of Illinois, this week kept the promise he made to the Chicago Trade Press Association at its “Congressional dinner” by regesting a detailed report from the Postmaster General on the quantities of the various classes of mail annually carried by the Government since 1877. At that din- ner Congressman Madden promised that he would take steps to conscientiously investigate the plaint of the publishers that the abuses in the second class service are not due to legitimate period- icals.
A statement at that dinner which made a strong impression on the Congressman was that for every legitimate periodical sent through the seeond class mails its advertisements bring scores of letters in the first dass mails, money orders and receipts in other branches of the service. He said in Washington, a few days ago, that one of the purposes of his investigation will be to ascertain the correctness of the assertion that this increase in the first class
-comed by purchasers.
mail is sufficient to reimburse the Government for the loss on second class. Congressman Madden is a member of the infi tial Appropriations Committee and a power in the House.

Prices have not altered appreciably during the past week, but exhibit a steady upward tendency, which may lead at any time to a readjustment; this the more so as the prices of pulp have been steadily mounting during the past few weeks, ruling now full) $2 per ton higher than at the beginning of December. Sulphit« pulp rules from $35 to $40 at the mills, according to quality, while ground wood pulp is quoted at from $13 to $15 at the mills.
The Dominion Paper Mills on the Nicolet River have resumed operations, the new paper machines having been started last Tuesday. They will, when in full running order, have a capacity of 15 tons a day, but at present, between the natural stiffness of new machinery and lack of water power, they are running about 10 tons a day.

Paper Market Buoyant in Ottawa Valley.
[FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT. ]
Ortawa, January 15, 1907—The advances on all kinds of paper made near the close of last year are firmly held. In view of the scarcity of pulp and fibre prices are likely to be further advanced in fhe near future. The buoyancy of the pulp and paper business is stimulating the industry in the Ottawa Valley to an extent almost unprecedented. The James Mac- Laren Company, of Buckingham, Quebec, is operating its pulp mill with 200 employees despite the labor difficulties which ham- pered activities there since last October. The company was obliged to bring in a large number of laborers from outside the town
J. R. Booth, of Ottawa, is running one paper machine, and is manufacturing news. Two other machines will start very soon making the same line. News and book paper are among the scarcest varieties, so that the new source of supply will be wel- Mr. Booth is unable to run his pulp mill in full capacity owing to lack of water power. All the Chaudiere Falls industries are suffering from a similar cause, and steam 1s being used as a motive power in many of them. The pulp mill, however, has no auxiliary plant. In a few days Mr. Booth will start sawing lumber brought from the woods by train, which will make the third independent industry in active operation.
The busiest place at present of all the Chaudiere establishments is that of the E. B. Eddy Company at Hull. The year opened with a strong demand for the company’s news, wrapping, toilet and tissues, while in book and flat paper it has not got abreast of the flood of orders received. Many orders have been received from the fifteen selling agents, as well as from large printing houses and jobbers direct for the standard quality of “M” book of the Eddy Company. It is seen that fibre pails and tubs, wash- boards and other wooden wares are being shipped in large loads. In paper bags the company is oversold despite the recent marked increase in the price of this commodity. There is no stock of sulphite or ground wood ahead in the Eddy establishment. In fact there is just enough to run.
The car shortage which affects the paper and pulp business very seriously is accentuated since the new year began. Many ship- ments of paper have to be held, to the great inconvenience of purchasers. G.

16 PAPER TRADE JOURNAL STATISTICS OF THE INDUSTRY IN MAINE.
The Annual Report of the Commissioner of Labor of That State Gives Figures Relating to the Paper and Pulp Industry, Which Leads All Others in That State.
Aucusta, Me., January 14, 1907—The last annual report of Hon. Samuel W. Matthews as Commissioner of Labor has been made public. As in previous years, the report is a mine of valu- able information in regard to the State of Maine.
Among the many valuable articles in this report is an elaborate history of the pulp and paper industry in the State. The analysis of the returns made to the department shows the following facts for 1906:
The amount of spruce wood entering into manufacture of pulp in the mills of our State in 1906 was 334.527.500 board feet, against 281,067.500 feet in 1904 and 142,973,500 feet in 1899, the yeer covered by the United States census taken in 1900.
“The amount of poplar used in 1906 was 74.300,000 feet, against 55.288,000 feet in 1904 and 24,928,000 feet in 1899.
The amount of other woods used in 1906 was 12,450,000 feet, against 423,000 feet in 1904 and 2,272,000 feet in 1899.
The total amount of all kinds of wood used in 1906 was 42I1,- 277.500 feet, against 336,778,500 feet in 1904 and 170,173,500 feet in 189090
As indicated above the amount of spruce made into pulp in Maine during the year 1906 was in round numbers 334,000,000 feet. The returns show that 20,000,000 feet of this was Canadian spruce which, being deducted, leaves 314,000,000 feet of Maine spruce. The returns also show that, of the Maine spruce used, 32,000,000 feet were edgings and other sawmill waste, which, being deducted, shows that 282,000,000 feet represent the amount of spruce cut from the timber lands of our State, to go direct to the pulp mills.
The number of men employed in the pulp and paper mills of Maine in 1906 was 8,250, against 7.253 in 1904 and 4,560 in 1899.
The number of women employed in 1906 was 356, against 317 in 1904 and 291 in 1899.
The total number of employees in 1906 was 8,606, against 7,570 in 1904 and 4,851 in 1899.
The item of total wages paid in 1906 was $4,820,268, against $4.052.919 in 1904 and $2,162,972 in 1899.
The value of the product in 1906 was $34.617,666, against $22,- 951,124 in 1904 and $13,223,275 in 1899.
The returns from Belfast and Kennebunk, where water power only is and from Fairfield (Shawmut) and Windham (South), where both water and steam power are used, all failed to give the number of horse power used.
used,
With the exception of the four above indicated establishments, the total power used in all the pulp and paper mills in the State was, water, 107,238 horse power; steam, 34,060 horse power; electricity, 18,090 horse power; a total of 160,288 horse power.
There are now in use in the active pulp and paper mills of the State 282 grinders, 85 digesters, 72 Fourdrinier paper ma- chines and 21 cylinder paper machines.
During the year 1906 the manufacture of pulp and paper was carried on in 38 different establishments within the State. Of these establishments 9 made ground wood pulp only, 3 made sulphite pulp only, 3 made soda pulp only, 3 made leather board only, 1 made pulp only, 3 made soda pulp only, ground wood pulp and paper; 3 made sulphite pulp and paper, 1 made soda pulp and paper, 2 made ground wood pulp and pulp board, 6 made ground wood pulp, sulphite pulp and paper, and 1 made sulphite pulp, soda pulp and paper. At* one establishment 2 paper mills were run and at another 3.
Ground wood pulp was made at 20 of these establishments, sul-
phite pulp at 13, soda pulp at 5, paper at 19, pulp board at 3 Neather board at 3.
Pulp in its different forms was manufactured at 31 of t!
establishments. Of this number 14 made ground wood pulp o: 6 made sulphite pulp only, 4 made soda pulp only, 6 made gro wood and sulphite pulp and 1 made sulphite and soda pulp. ‘| daily output of these 31 mills was 1,940,000 pounds of gro. wood pulp, 1,424,000 pounds of sulphite pulp and 580,000 pou of soda pulp, a total of 3,918,000 pounds.
There are 25 establishments with 28 mills where paper in various grades was manufactured, including pulp board and leative: board. Three of these mills made leather board, 3 made pulp board and 22 made paper. On the returns the paper product is not very finely classified, some showing two or more kinds without specifying the amount of each, and others lumping their product as miscellaneous. Only the following classification of the dail) output of these 28 mills can be made:
News paper, 1.430,000 pounds; manila paper. 294,000 pounds; book paper, 270,000 pounds; and manila paper, 318,000 pounds; book and writing paper, 164,000 pounds; news and bag paper, 100,000 pounds; manila and writing paper, 70,000 pounds; manila, wrapping and bag paper, 54,000 pounds; manila, book, label. coating and envelope paper, 280,000 pounds; wrapping and mis cellaneous paper, 38,000 pounds; pulp board, 97,000 pounds; leather board, 13,000 pounds, a total of 3,128,000 pounds.
The making of paper boxes is one of our minor industries, yet it is one of the many lines of manufacturing which, in the aggr« gate, furnish employment to hundreds of the men and women of Maine. In 1900 the number of hands employed in this industry was 187, of whom 38 were men and 149 women; in 1905, 222 were employed, 49 men, 168 women and 5 children under 16 years of age; and, according to returns received at this office the present year, there are now 59 men and 238 women employed, a total of 297
There has been little change in the number of plants in recent years, but considerable increase in the volume of business. In 1900 there were, in the State, 9 plants with a capital of $94,746, employing 187 hands, to whom $54,571 was paid in wages, paying $98.887 for materials and $7,580 in miscellaneous expenses, and pro ducing boxes to the value of $208,250. In 1905 the same number of plants, with a capital of $144,900, were giving employment to
news
‘222 hands, to whom $70,416 was paid in wages, paying $106,191
for materials and $7,593 in miscellaneous expenses and producing boxes to the value of $236,149.
The pasteboard and paper used in the Maine paper box factories is nearly all imported from other States. Although Maine is manufacturing about one-eighth of all the paper and wood pulp made in the country, but very little is finished into the material used in making boxes.
The product of a few of the factories is nearly all marketed outside of Maine, but by far the larger number sell most of their output within the State.
The wages of men in these box factories range from $8.50 to $13.50 per week, and of women from $4.50 to $7.50 per week, according to location and the kind of work performed. a day usually constitutes a day’s work in this industry.
To show the extent and rapid development of this industry in the United States the census figures for three decades show that the total value of paper boxes produced within the country for th¢ year 1879 was $7,665,553; for the year 1889 it was $18,805,330; and for the year 1899 it amounted to $27,316,317, showing an increas: of nearly four-fold in twenty years.
In 1900 there were in the State of New York 275 paper box factories, in Massachusetts 165, in Pennsylvania 150, in Illinois 6 in Connecticut 60, and in New Jersey 57, while most other States had but few and some States had none, the industry naturally cen tring in those localities where the product is in greatest demand.

SUIT IN NEW JERSEY VS. UNITED.
A Temporary Injunction Granted Restraining the Transfer of Straw Board and Uncas Stock—John W. Griggs, Attorney for Stockholders’ Protective Committee—Hearing Later.
The first step in the new litigation against O. C. Barber and the other directors in the United Box Board and Paper Company, on behalf of the Mitchell opposition or stockholders’ protective committee. was taken on Monday of this week by John W. Griggs, former United States Attorney General. He filed the bill of com- plaint in the New Jersey Court of Chancery in Newark, and ob- tained from Vice Chancellor Emery a temporary injunction re- straining the directors from disposing of any of the corporation’s assets to the newly incorporated American Box Board Company. The hearing is set for next Tuesday.
The dissenting shareholders of the United Company, who have joined the forces of Sidney Mitchell. of Chicago, in the stockhold- ‘rs’ protective committee, now assert that they have secured prox- jes on 120,000 shares, or substantially enough to control the com- pany. This committee, which has authorized the present suit against the directors, is determined to block the proposed merger of the United Company and its subsidiary, the American Straw Board Company, in the American Box Board Company.
Mr. Mitchell, the chairman of the committee, was in New York late last week making arrangements to prosecute the new suit. In explaining the cause of this action he said:
“The United Box Board and Paper Company owned originally 57.883 shares out of a total issue of 60,000 shares of the American Straw Board Company stock, Through the manipulation of this stock and its pledge to secure the collateral trust bonds the United Box Board Company received $1,000,000 in cash. The. directors now propose to sell the equity in this stock for $400,000. It is be- lieved by a large number of stockholders in the United Company that this equity is to be purchased by the directors through the medium of a new corporation called the American Box Board Company. Should the stockholders allow this sale to be con- summated the United Company would receive $1,400,000 net for its entire holdings of American Straw Board Company’s stock.
“The American Straw Board Company has total assets of $4.- 736.711, including $3,100,000 of actual cash value for its mills, $600,000 of stock .in the Uncas Paper Company and $1,036,711 of cash assets. The American Straw Board Company’s total liabilities, on the other hand, involve only $298,574, including $30,574 of ac- counts payable, and accrued interest and $268,000 of general mort gage bonds.
“The stockholders believe their equity in American Straw Board Company's stock is worth several times $400,000, as the earnings of the Straw Board Company in 1906 were $500,000, and they therefore vigorously protest against this proposed sale and the entire reorganization and merger plan of the present manage-
ment.”
Protective Committee Jubilant.
[FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT. ]
Cuicaco, IIL, January 15, 1907—The stockholders of the United, who are represented by the “protective committee,” were jubilant today when a telegram was received from Attorney John W. Griggs, announcing the granting of a temporary injunction by the New Jersey chancery coutt restraining the United from disposing of any of the stock of the American Straw Board Company. A meeting of the executive committee of the “protective committee” was held in the afternoon to hear the report from Sidney Mitchell as to what he accomplished in New York and to make plans for an even more aggressive fight to oust O. C. Barber and his clique from dominating the companies.
Mr. Mitchell reported that he brought back from New York proXes for 10,000 more shares. This gives the committee 130,000, and it confidently expects to hold 80 per cent. of the stock when the annual meeting is called. A decision was reached to prepare a circular which is to be sent to all of the stockholders urging them to purchase the treasury bonds.
“If the stockholders fall in with this suggestion the floating indebtedness of the company will be cleared up, and it will be in fine shape,” said Mr. Mitchell, this evening. “The stock books, which closed December 28, have been promised to us by Secretary Fleming, and though, when I saw him last week, he declared that he had not received them yet, we hope to get them in a few days. The list we now are using is up to December 10, and Mr. Fleming says that 500 certificates of stock have changed hands since that time.
“The injunction suit, which is pending in the courts in Chicago, will also be pushed, and, as it is also to compel a return of the Uncas mill, it has a somewhat different field. The new next pro- geeding in the New Jersey court will be to make the injunction which has been granted a permanent one. I will go East to be at that hearing and back up the statements of my affidavit on which the writ was issued. If the injunction is made permanent I do not see what further move remains for Mr. Barber and his asso- ciates unless it is to throw the properties in the hands of a re- ceiver. If they do that we will get the companies out again and proceed against the Barber directors in some other way. Such an act would be an overt attempt to wreck the corporations and complete corroboration of the charges to that effect which we have made in our bills in court.” Woon.
A Felt Mill Projected at Skaneateles, N. Y.
[FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT. ]
Utica, N. Y., January 15, 1907.—Several capitalists of this city are interested in the establishing of a new felt mill at Skaneateles, N. Y. It is claimed by those who know that the deal is closed, and that the work of incorporating and capitalizing will be com- menced in a few days. It is understood that representatives of the firm of H. Waterbury & Sons Company, of Oriskany, N. Y., manufacturer of paper mill felts and blankets, one of the largest concerns of the kind in the Mohawk Valley, have during the past month made a most complete and exhaustive examination of the Morton Woolen Mills at Skaneateles Falls, with the idea of in- teresting the Utica gentlemen. The experts reported so favorably and the capitalists were so impressed with the facilities of the plant and the prospective water power that an option on the prop- erty has been taken, and the preliminary work of organization of a company has been inaugurated. The Utica men will take in some Syracuse, Baldwinsville and Oriskany capital with them, and the company will be a strong one.
The Morton mills have been closed since last spring, and are still in good order. The proposed new company will give em- ployment to 150 hands, and the product will be of an A No, 1 order, being produced along the lines that have made the product of the Waterbury mills so well known in the paper and pulp world. There is one obstacle, so those interested say, standing in the way of the complete success of the project, and that is the ex- cessive high freight rates on the railroads from Skaneateles. This question of rates from small inland towns where there is but one railroad is an important one for manufacturing concerns, espe- cially in these days of close competition. The rate per hundred pounds from a competing point where there are two or three lines to a given point may be half what it is at a small place with only one line, although the distance carried on the cheaper rate may be several hundred miles further. The manufacturer in a small town is therefore almost wholly at the mercy of the rail-
road. W. E. T.

The Paper Dealer’s Guide.
The modern, up to date paper dealer is careful to keep his equipment in ready to use shape, so that it can be called into service at any emergency, no matter how sudden. One of his most vital auxiliaries is Lockwood's Directory of the Paper, Stationery and Allied Trades. It is a book fat with information, and one indication of how it is regarded in the trade is the fact that each year its advertising patronage increases, and this year it exceeds by many hundred dollars that of any other year. By the testimony of paper manufacturers, paper dealers, importers and exporters, stationers, etc., it is the standard reference book of the trade.
To the paper dealer it is of special value. In its mill depart- ment it gives him a complete list of the mills in the United States and Canada, their location, post office and telegraph addresses, their equipment and the kind and quantities of paper they manu facture, together with the width of sheet each mill can make.
In its department of “Watermarks and Brands,” occupying about 145 pages, it gives him the names of watermarks and brands, so that in a moment*he can ascertain where any certain paper can be had
Then there are other departments telling him where he may buy from headquarters his coated paper. waxed and parchment papers. cardboard, paper bags, twines, butter dishes, tags, etc., so that in a single volume there are enumerated all the sources of his supplies
Besides all this there are lists of railroad purchasing agents, paper dealers, stationers, pad and tablet manufacturers, and blank book makers, as well as a department of “Statistics,” in which are set forth in detail the imports and exports for many years, census returns, rules for use in dealing in boards, and tables of comparative sizes and weights
The 1907 edition of the directory is the best of the thirty-two editions of the book published. The price is $3.

From being the office of the Kimberly & Clark Company it becomes an office of the Kimberly-Clark Company Orders for the Telulah and Atlas companies, which heretofor came to the Chicago office, were always sent to the Kimberly & Clark mill to be distributed to the other mills. The change, so far as the Chicago office is concerned, will be principally one of book keeping. Firms having aceounts with either or all of the three mills have been given directions by Mr. Conley how to close them up at the end of the current month, after which all accounts will be with one corporation instead of with the individual mills.

Essex Paper Company Increases Capital Stock.
[FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT.]
Hotyoxe, Mass., January 15, 1907.—An increase of the capital stock of the Essex Paper Company from $25,000 to $50,000 has been authorized by a vote of the stockholders of the company. The increased funds derived by the sale of stock will be used for the enlargement of the plant and the placing of the business on an up to date footing. The company has already made a number of improvements in the plant, and intends to enlarge the business in general during the coming spring. Several changes have been made in the working force of the concern, and in doing this Man- ager Bond has drawn from several concerns in the city engaged in like work. A. P. Cadieux, who has been with the Power Paper Company for a time, will have charge of the pad department at the Essex plant, and Louis A. Cadieux, who has been connected with the American Book Company in New York, will come to Holyoke March 1, and A. L. Hunter will go on the road at once. The company intends to push all of its lines.

Slow Delivery of Freight and Coal at Holyoke.
[FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT. ]
Hotyoxke, Mass., January 15, 1907.—There is still complaining concerning the delivery of freight in this city, and from Holyoke to outside points. It is stated that the transportation of freight to New York city requires much longer than is usual, and freight going West seems to have been lost sight of almost entirely. Shipments of coal are coming into the city slowly, but none of the mills have been permitted to suffer as yet. One coal dealer, who believed that shipments of coal were being unnecessarily held back, informed the foreign road that unless a part at least of the coal consigned to him, which was on their tracks, was deliv- ered forthwith a complaint would be lodged with the Interstate Commerce Commission. He got his coal within a remarkably short time after the letter reached the freight traffic manager of the delinquent road. It is stated by the railroads that the general congestion is being relieved as fast as pgssible, and in a very short time freight will be moving normally again. Ferry.

Civil engineers of the International Paper Company have been taking measurements and soundings in the river east of the island at Fort Edward, N. Y., for the»past few days. It is rumored that the State waterway may be extended to the company’s plant, per- mitting barges to continue from the main channel of the new canal south of the island to the company’s dock.
James Berwick, superintendent of piping and steam fitting dur- ing construction of the St. Croix Paper Company’s plant at Wood- land, Me., finished his duties for that company Saturday night, and the high esteem in which Mr. Berwick was held by his em- ployers, foreman and employees was shown by the beautiful and costly gold watch and chain that were presented to him at the completion of his work at Woodland.
The Union Bag and Paper Company has changed Ira Pattee, who went from Glens Falls, N. Y., to the Ballston plant of the company a few years ago, from the superintendency of the Island mill at Ballston, N. Y., to the company’s plant in Hadley, N. Y. Superintendent Morrissey, of the Hadley mill, is transferred to Bakers Falls to take the place left vacant by Philip L’Amoreaux.

The Hinde-Dauch Paper Company, of Sandusky, Ohio, which recently leased the old Muncie, Ind., pulp mill building, expects to begin paper making by February 1. The plant is rapidly being transformed into a paper mill and the néw machinery which has been shipped from Sandusky is being installed.

A number of paper makers have been brought from Sandusky, and besides these many more men will be employed.
At a meeting of the Albemarle Paper Manufacturing Company, Richmond, Va., held on Friday of last week, new officers were elected, this being necessary on account of death of Capt. James F.

NOTES OF THE TRADE.
The Seattle Paper Company, of Seattle, Wash., has been incor porated for $10,000 by J. Edward Thomas, Robert G. Fraser and B. Gard Ewing.
Walter P. Crosby, of Holyoke, Mass., has purchased the Franklin bindery from Edward Cramer, who has taken a position with the National Blank Book Company, of Holyoke, Mass.
J. S. Luneschloss, the mill representative, of Worth street, New York, has secured the output of a large wire end butter dish mill located in the East and is now marketing the product.
The Utica Gas and Electric Company has made a contract with the Union Bag and Paper Company, which owns a big power plant on the upper Hudson, for 8,000 horse power, which it will use to supply Glens Falls, Saratoga and neighboring places, and may enter Amsterdam, Schenectady and Albany, N. Y.
Persistent rumors to the effect that a large paper bag factory is to be built at Oldtown, Me., in the spring are going the rounds. The factory, is it said, will be one of the largest of its kind in New England. It will be furnished with electric power and electric lights and will be steam heated.
The financial embarrassment of E. Wallace Craig & Co., manu- facturers of paper boxés, 417 North Orianna street, Philadelphia, is reported. Petitions in bankruptcy have been filed against the partners, E. Wallace Craig, William E. Hannum and E. D. Han- num, by the following creditors: Philip Rudolph & Son, $1,416.08; Walter H. Mathias & Co., $489, and the John Crompton Company, $193.98.
The Logan, Swift & Brigham branch of the United States En- velope Company, Worcester, Mass., will double its capacity by the erection of a large addition to its present plant. The new structure as planned will be of brick and granite construction, 140x225 feet, four stories in height, with tar and gravel roof, with a monitor in the centre Each floor of the new building will contain over 22,000 square feet. The offices will be located on the second floor.
The Eichbaum Company, of Wood street, Pittsburg, Pa., printer and lithographer, which was organized in 1797, went into the hands of a receiver last week. The firm is indebted to the Mort- gage Banking Company to the extent of $8,557, Alling & Corey $3,404 and the W. W. McBride Paper Company for $2,965 for materials furnished. The total liabilities are given at $60,000. The assets consist of stock and machinery valued at $100,000 and book ‘accounts of $15,000.
The Boston & Albany Railroad has sent a lengthy letter to the Springfield Board of Trade, promising much better freight service in that city and an enlargement of the freight station there; also the doing away with the practice of allowing the freight station to be used for many days as a storage place for large pieces of freight. There has been much complaint of the holding of cars in the West Springfield yards, when they should have been moved over to Springfield, but all this is promised to be remedied by the company.
The use of blotting paper for cleaning machinery is a compara- tively new idea—an idéa that has been tried successfully in German workshops. In employing blotting paper for scouring purposes the use of cotton waste is decreased, and sponge cloths are entirely dispensed with. The paper is not only cheaper, but it does not soil the machinery with fibres and dust, as do the woolen refuse and the sponge cloths. It is also less combustible than other cleaning materials, and if it should be caught in the machinery while engines, in motion are being cleaned it tears easily, and the work- men ruh no risk of having their hands drawn into the machinery.
The Bryan ,Insulating Fibre Company, of Bryan, Ohio, capital $25,000, was incorporated last week by J. A. Gremes, J. H. Reid, H. J. Myers, Charles E. Scott and W. F. Kurtz.

Exceptionally High Water in Fox River.
[FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT.) AppLeton, Wis., January 14, 1907—The stage of water in Lake
Winnebago and Fox River continues very high. It is believed that the height of water in the lake is greater now than ever before at this time of the year. There are practically no restric- tions upon the use of water power, and the mills are taking what- ever they can make use of. As the winter thus far has been comparatively an open one, with a good deal of mild weather in- terspersed with brief but severe cold snaps, there has been more trouble than usual with anchor ice and slush ice, and this has been the case all over®the State where water power is used. Many times canals leading from the main river have practically “filled up with slush ice, so as to prevent water from passing
through. During every cold snap it has been necessary to keep
a sharp eye upon dams to prevent accumulations that would dai gerously raise the water and overflow the canal banks. Fox River
Chicago Printing House Suffers Fire Loss.
Cuicaco, January 15, 1906—Half a million dollar’s worth oi property was destroyed today by a fire which partly burned an eight story building at 407 to 429 Dearborn street, occupied prin cipally by M. A. Donahue & Co., printers and publishers. Thre new presses, which had just been installed by the Donahue Com pany at a cost of $45,000, were ruined. The fire is thought to have been caused by spontaneous combustion. Other firms whos: places of business were destroyed by the fire were the Thalman Printing Company, E. Moorehouse, Edward Fleming Company, bookbinders ; George H. Benedict & Co., publishers; W. S. Reeves, printing and publishing; Thomas W. Jackson Publishing Company. Andalusia Cork Company, Voice Publishing Company, Standard Electric Company, Henry & Hughes Publishing Company and Abbott Brothers, wholesale druggists.
Gleeson Has an Eye for “ Art.”
Manufacturers of Fourdrinier and other kinds of wires have a great appreciation of high art. Only a few weeks ago reference was made in THe Paper Trape JourNAL to a wire concern in the West sending out a calendar illustrated with a reproduction of Aste’s painting, “Thelma,” and now comes Thomas E. Gleeson with a calendar of the same character. Mr. Gleeson, as everyone knows, makes wires at Harrison, N. J., and, like many others in the paper trade, knows and appreciates a goed picture when he sees it, so when “Thelma” was shown him a year ago he at once decided to make her a part of his business outfit. Mr. Gleeson is distributing the calendars throughout the trade. and if you have not received yours write him for one, and make “Thelma’s” acquaintance, if you have not done so already.
The Ontario Grinder to Be Made in Japan. [FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT. ]
Lockport, N. Y., January 16, 1907.—I had a talk with C. W. Roberts, of the Ontario Grinder Company, of this city. He states that his son, F. W. Roberts, has recently returned from Tokio, Japan, where he was successful in disposing of the rights to manufacture the Ontario grinder to the Oji Paper Company for Japan. The Ontario Grinder Company sent out some of their grinders to the Orient, and they pleased the Japs so much that young Mr. Roberts found little difficulty in selling the patents.
Charles Roberts entertained the general manager of the Oji Paper Company the other day. He had with him his engineer, and the two were going about visiting mills and nosing about seeking for new ideas and pointers with which to improve their mills in Tokio. Mr. Roberts states that the Japanese are most observant and are quick to grasp a suggestion. ww. ET.
Questions on Paper Mill Insurance.
President D. W. C. Skilton, of the Phoenix Insurance Company of Hartford, Conn., has issued a circular to the signers of the paper mill agreement, in which he says that he has been requested to submit the following questions :
First—Will the signers assent to the proposition that the executive or paper mill committees of the New England Insurance Exchange, the Underwriters’ Association of New York State, and the Middle Department Association shall have authority to waive the application of the agreement to certain high grade un- eprinklered paper mills? Or,
Second—Do the companies desire to abrogate the agreement? Two companies have suggested that such action be taken.

Meeting to Extend Our Foreign Commerce.
The national convention for the extension of our foreign com- merce, which is this week in session at Washington, is one of the most important commercial gatherings in the history of the country
As this meeting is the initial step in the great movement for wider markets for American products, it is to be regretted that the paper industry is not fully represented in this co-operative ef- While there is no present need of export outlet for paper, The
object of the meeting in Washington is to be prepared for a period
fort still there is no knowing how soon the necessity may arise. of stagnation, as well as to find a constant outlet for the products of our farms, workshops and mines.
The chairman oj the meeting in his opening address summarized “We should give the conditions
the necessities of the®situation when he said:
attention to the tastes of our foreign customers,
prevailing among them, their individual requirements as to sizes
the weight of packages, and also to the prevailing customs regu lations.”
The above quotation reads like an individual arraignment of the paper trade, as it is a notorious fact that paper manufacturers have heretofore absolutely refused to cater to the “whims” of for eigners in the matter of the sizes, weights and tints of papers ordered, and have also disregarded the ordinary precautions in thx matter of packing for export
“Foreign commerce,” said the chairman, “wil! bey.the pressing question of the nea: future.” One of the means ne€essary to s« cure trade abroad is intelligent study of the needs of foreign mar

This was mentioned as the prime requisite. Manual training
respect was cited as to the wisdom of such teaching. Attention was also called to the inadequate shipping facilities afforded the American merchant. The wisdom of reciprocal trade relations with foreign countries was also advocated as a possible means of
enlarging our foreign trade
Disposing of Straw Mill Waste.
A new method for disposing of straw board waste without caus- ing the pollution of streams is described in Water Supply Paper No. 189, recently issued by the United States Geological Survey.
As a
laboratory and actual experiments at a straw board mill, it has
result of chemical investigations of waste matter in the been found that if straw board waste is filtered through sand at high rates an effluent can be obtained from which more than 90 per cent. of the suspended organic matter has been removed, and which may be discharged into a stream having a minimum flow of twice the discharge of the mill without producing a nuisance. The
from the beaters is passed through a settling tank of such size that
The plan of treatment is in brief as follows: waste water
it will give a period of about one hour’s storage. The water is then passed directly to the filters, which should have an available loss of head of at least 12 feet, and could be run at a rate of 100,000,000 gallons per acre per day.
The effluent catf be pumped and used again for washing the filter and for beater wash water, while the sludge from the sedimenta- tion tank can be most expeditiously dealt with by filter pressing. There would remain a‘fairly dry and hard press cake, which under the influence of the air and sun is speedily resolved into mineral matter, forming a sort of soil. The cost of this process, after the initial expense of installation, is practically reduced to the cost of pumping the waste water, and is sufficiently low to admit of its adoption wherever stream pollution is serious. '
Water Supply Paper No. 189, which may be obtained on appli- cation to the director of the United States Geological Survey, Washington, D. C., contains a full discussion of the experiments made and a description of the new process. The adoption of this process by straw board mills will be of benefit ‘to residents along

ing nuisance, while the mill owners will avoid the almost con- stant expense and vexation of lawsuits and injunction proceed-
ings, which in some cases have caused the closing of the mill.

ArnoLp.—F, S. Arnold, president of the Arnold-Roberts Com- pany, paper dealer, of Boston, is receiving the cnngratulations of his many friends upon the improved condition of his daughter's health, a young lady of eighteen years, who has been seriously ill at home for some weeks past.
Benrend.—Dr. Otto F. Behrend, vice president and treasurer of the Hammermill Paper Company, Erie, Pa., sailed last week on the Kaiser Wilhelm II for Bremen, Dr. Behrend’s principal ob- ject in making this trip being to visit his parents.
BurBank.—A. N. Burbank, treasurer of the International Paper Company, was elected this week vice president of the International Trust Company, of Boston.

CuisHoLM.—Hugh J. Chisholm, president of the International Paper Company, New York, was in Portland, Me., for several days last week.
ConLey.—James C. Conley, Western selling agent for the Kim-

So optimistic are the officials concern- ing the future that the company has contracted for double the sup- ply of materials used in the manufacture of its “Ruboil” belting as was worked up during the past twelve months. There must be merit in “Ruboil” belting.
Linpaver.—Luther Lindauer, of Kaukauna, Wis., departed last week for a tripe of several montbs to the sunny South, accom- panied by his family.

An Echo of the Pynchon Bank Failure.
SPRINGFIELD, Mass., January 15, 1907.—In accordance with in- structions from the Comptroller of the Currency, Receiver Ellis S. Pepper, of the Pynchon National Bank, of Springfield, Mass., has sent out by registered mail official notification of an assessment of $49 upon every share of the capital stock of the bank. This is payable on or before January 26, and, since there are 2,000 shares, will raise the sum of $98,000.
The chiefecause of the failure of the Pynchon National Bank was the possessién of $577,000 in bonds of the American Writing Paper Company, which could not be converted immediately into cash when the strain came. As soon as the receiver was appointed the Comptroller of the Currency ordered an assessment of $100 upon each share of the capital stock. In order to avert the pay- ment of this heav# assessment, and, it was thought at the time. of
all payments to come, several of the largest stockholders of t! bank got together and agreed to take the bonds off the hands the bank. The bonds stood on the books at 95, but they were th quoted in the market at 69. The heavy stockholders offered to ta the bonds at the price which the bank had paid for them, or 95
In other words, the heavy stockholders, or as many of th: as volunteered, pocketed the loss on the bonds. Every man w! came into the scheme took $3,000 in bonds for every ten shares « stock which he held. This means that for every $1,000 which held in stock he voluntarily assumed the loss of 25 per cent $3,000, or $750. The act amounted, therefore, to a voluntary asses ment of $75 on every share of capital stock held by those wh entered the deal $y this sacrifice it was hoped to do away wit any compulsory assessment for good and all.

Toronto, Canada, January 14, 1907.—Tenders will be received by F.

Decision in an Interesting Timber Cutting Case. [FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT. ]
Utica, N. Y., January 15, 1907.—The case of the People of the State of New York against Mary L. Fisher and the J. P. Lewis Company, of Beaver Falls, has been decided in favor of the State. It is a case ef great importance in connection with the Adirondack lands, and the cutting of timber and of pulp wood. Much interest was taken in the outcome by the State officials and the owners of land in the Adirondacks, as the result would act as a precedent in similar cases. The J. P. Lewis Company cut pulp wood on cer tain land which it is claimed by Mrs. Mary L. Fisher sh: owned. The State laid claim to this same land as having bought same from Mrs. Fisher beforehand, and that the State had th full right to prohibit the cutting of timber on the same. A verdict of $786.34 was given for damages and penalties, with costs, but th: question of ownership was left to the referee to decide. He gave as his opinion that the State was the owner, and the Appellat: Division of the Supreme Court of the State has confirmed that decision. evan

The St. Regis Santa Clara Suit in Court Again.
[FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT. ]
Watertown, N. Y., January 16, 1907.—The suit brought by the St. Regis Paper Company against the Santa Clara Lumber Com pany to compel specific performance of a contract to deliver 12,000 cords of pulp wood per year for ten years at $9 per cord, with an option to renew the contract for another ten years at a higher price, is again on trial before ex-Judge Milton H. Merwin, of Utica, as referee. The case has been in the courts for several years, and has twice been before the Court of Appeals and sent back for a new trial. In August, 1898, when the contract was made, the Santa Clara Lumber Company owned 32,000 acres of land in Franklin County. Under the contract it was provided that payments should be made for the wood from time to time to cover the cost of labor, and if there was any dispute relative to these payments the dispute was to be arbitrated, and also the defendant was not to sell its timber land while the contract was in force The defendants cut and delivered a quantity of pulp wood under the contract.
A dispute finally arose over the payments. Then the St. Regis Paper Company made an offer to arbitrate, and for some time letters passed between the representatives of the two concerns. The sum of $25.000 had been paid for the work of cutting the timber when the Santa Clara Lumber Company served notice on the St. Regis Paper Company that the and offered to return the money
contract was rescinded _The next move on the part of the lumber company was to prepare to sell 10,000 acres of its land to the Brooklyn Cooperage Company.

On the Renous River James Robinson's cut will be about 4,000,000, while the Snowball concern, one of the heaviest operators on the North Shore, will cut probably from 15,000,000 to 16,000,000.
This will make the total cut in the Miramichi 100,000,000, which is a most creditable showing

A Reward for a Substitute for Rosin.
At a meeting of the German Cellstuff and Paper Chemists the presiding officer called attention to uneasiness caused by regardlessly advancing prices of rosin. Opposition to the powerful American financial organization offered, he said, poor chances. Though a substitute answering every demand for replacing rosin had not yet been found, the hope of success should not be abandoned, in view of the present advanced state of science and technology members of the paper trade he proposed to offer a liberal reward to the successful inventor, and to announce that offer at all the universi- ties and high schools of technology.
However, in order to interest able and distinguished

Architect Sickman to Be Married in London.
[FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT. ]
KaLAMAzoo, Mich., January 16, 1907.—TuHe Parer Trape Jovur- NAL in its last number contained an interesting article giving in detail the plan for an increase in the organization of the business interests of Joseph H. Wallace, the paper mill architect, including among other points the establishment of a London office, with James F. Sickman as resident manager. This fact is of interest to Michigan paper producers, among whom Mr. Sickman has a con- siderable acquaintance, but it is not by any means the most im portant advancement to be made by this clever engineer; far from it. The genial Sickman is to be married. The ceremony will take place this month in London, his bride being Miss Katherine Mc Donald, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. David McDonald, and one of Kalamazoo’s most charming society girls of the younger set.
Mr. Sickman met his while in Kalamazoo in 1902-3, superintending the construction of the fine mill for the Kalamazoo Paper Company. When Mr. Sickman went to Munising he found time to return occasionally and it was soon evident what the result would be.
fiancée
Twice it has been necessary to postpone the wedding, but now Miss McDonald, accompanied by several of her Kalamazoo friends, will sail this month for London, where the ceremony will be performed. HALL,

MAKING COMPOUND PAPERS.
By Combinations of Wires It Is Possible by a New Invention to Bring the Different Webs Together Into One Sheet.
Samuel Milne, of Edinburgh, Scotland, has invented improve- ments and modifications on Fourdrinier machines. United States Patent No. 840,228
His mainly in combinations of Four- drinier wires to make them suitable for making compound papers —such as duplex, triplex and the like—so that several webs may be united to form one compound web without any of the difficulties hitherto connected with the manufacture of such papers on the
improvements consist
machines employed for that While his improvements are chiefly connected with the manufacture of compound papers, some of them are equally applicable to the ordinary Fourdrinier machine when used for making one thickness of paper. Several very important advantages will result, the inventor claims, from his improvements, such as the material increase in the quality, which will equal the best Fourdrinier papers, and also an increase in output and a@handiness and convenience of parts hitherto un- obtainable on such* machines.
The claims of the inventor follow:
1. A paper making machine, having Fourdrinier wires in com- bination with a single felt passing below said wires, the wires coming in contact with the felt so as to deliver their webs onto the felt. .
2. A papér making machine, having Fourdrinier wires, in com-
purpose.
bination with a single felt passing below said wires, one or mor inner couch rolls so arranged that the under side of wire brought sufficiently low down to meet the felt passing underneat!
3. A paper making machine, having Fourdrinier wires, in com bination with a felt having couch rolls under the wire and insicd the felt, the wire being in contact with the felt at the roll, whereby the paper is transferred directly to the upper side of the felt.
4. A paper making machine, having Fourdrinier wires, in com bination with a felt having couch rolls under the wire and inside the felt to deliver the paper from the under side of the wire direct to the upper side of the felt with the wire side uppermost to come first in contact with the top*press roll.
5. A paper making machine having Fourdrinier wires, in com
bination with a felt and press rolls, arranged whereby the paper passes under the wire directly onto the felt, with the wire side upward, the paper being supported and carried by the felt from the wires to the press rolls.
6. In paper making machines of the Fourdrinier class, beams 19 and 21, and side bars rigidly fixed thereto, and a pin mounted in the centre of said beam 19, in combination with movable sup- ports carrying the breast roll end so that the wire frame is cap- able of receiving a swinging motion round pin 23.
7. In paper making machines of the Fourdrinier class a cross beam 20 and a bar 21 arranged inside the wire in combination with and carrying side bars and other parts, which come within the part of the wire from said beam 20 and bar 21 placed inside the wire, whereby a wire can be slipped on without removing these parts.

A LEATHER MAN TURNS PAPER : MAN.
He Buys an Old Mill “‘Cheap”’ and Starts in to Make a Fortune —TInstead, He Gets a Hogshead of Experience, Which Lands Him Near the Asylum—‘Old Dan’ Tells the Sad Story.
(Written for THe Paper Trape JourNAL.)
In a Western paper mill, where two machines were supposed to turn off at least 15 tons of book paper a night, a young man who ran one of the machines had on his night tour two successive nights of very poor running.
On Wednesday night his machine, which was 96 inches wide, was on a good order, one on which he should have made a run of at least 15,000 pounds, but he got only 8,000 pounds. In reporting his troubles to the boss he said he had to shut the machine down twice during ‘the night—the first time to sew a crack 1% inches wide in the middle of the wire; the second time to put on a second felt. On Thursday night he was on the same order, and he made but 9,000 pounds, and his excuse was a poor first felt and short stuff. This young man had been a machine tender for three years and was considered a good one; he held the record for making the largest amount of paper on a night tour, and also the largest week’s run of any man who ever ran the machine. But notwithstanding these facts there was one man who claimed he was not a good ma- chine tender, and this man was his third hand. The latter was a bit old for a third hand, being fifty-eight years of age; but he knew a good deal more than the average third hand does, for he had run old machines and new ones, and knew the “ins” and “outs” of paper making about as well as any man who follows it.
I was beater engineer, and “Old Dan,” whom I have just de- I claimed to be one of the old school of paper making and so did he, and conse- quently it was not strange that we should criticize the doings of the younger men in the business now and then when we had nothing better to talk about
On nights when the machine was running well “Old Dan” and I would sit together and talk of the good old days when quality and not quantity was the thing desired; and of the old beaters, when I beat my stuff in the beater for the machine. “Didn’t have any Jordan engine to cover up careless beating of stock in them days.” Then there was the old “Knocker” screen, and the old ma- chines after it; in some mills the old machine was braced up with sticks and tied up with rope. No wire guide, no felt guides, no speed cones or suction pumps like we have today, and most of the machines running by water, too. And when you stop and think of the things a man had to contend with in those days, as compared with now, you'll find that a little more brain matter was expended on paper making then than now.
“Dan” told me the night after the young machine tender’s second night of poor running just why he did not think the young man
scribed, and myself became pretty good friends.
and a good many of the young men of today in the business are not “It’s just like this, Billy,” he said; “When I was that feller’s age I was runnin’ on an old 72 inch in Massachusetts, and say, I had to use more brain work on that ma- chine than these fellers use in a month on these big machines. Now, take the last two nights for instance. Wednesday night I saw a teeney little hole in the middle of the sheet, and I knew it was a crack in the wire, and I told the lad, and what did he do about it? He said: ‘That’s all right, Dan! it ain’t much, and we want to get a good eun off tonight. I guess she won't get any big- Now, if 1 was a-running that machine, as quick as I saw that little crack I would have shut down, and it would not took me more than twenty minutes to sew it, for then it wasn’t half an inch wide. But the lad was looking for produc- tion, and by the time he got wise that crack was an inch and a half wide, and it took hith three times as long to sew it. That's what I call lack of judgment. Then he got worried sewing it and

ger before morning.’
thinking of the time he lost, and although the second felt was showin’ signs of filling up he never thought about puttin’ one on, but hustled like sin to get the machine going again, and when he did he started to speed her up to make up for lost time, and then the felt commenced to fill up, and he made poor paper for two hours afore he knew enough to shut down and change it. All in all he lost "bout four and a half hours in time, where one and a half hours was all that was necessary with a little judgment. What kind of a mess would he ha’ made out of one of the old jobs, Billy?” Dan asked me. I shook my head, not having formed an opinion. “I’ll tell you,” he continued; “if you took one of these modern machine tenders and give them one of the old machines, one half as big as these, to run, with only one helper on it, they would be in ‘broke’ and poor paper up to their neck half the time.”
“Then there was the second poor night we've had this week. When ‘she’ started to break the ‘lad’ said it was short stuff was doing it, and you told me, although I knew it myself, that the stuff was longer than we had it the night before. I knew it was the first felt was breaking the paper, because he did not wash it the night afore, and the other fellow didn’t wash it the followin’ day. I told the lad I thought if we’d give the felt a wash it would stop the breaking, and he got mad and wanted to know who was run- nin’ the machine, him or I. But two hours afterward, when I couldn’t see him 10 feet away on account of the way the ‘broke’ was piled up, he decided to do what I told him, and it fixed the breaking. All he wanted was production, but he didn’t know how to get it. What would one of the fellers do if they had to run a machine like I run in a New Hampshire mill?”
“What one was that, Dan?” I asked, for I knew Dan had run some pretty queer kinds of machines, and I wanted to hear about them.
“She was a 62 inch, not very big, but she was the worst old You see, it was like this. It was in ’92. The little mill that this machine was in had shut down "bout a year be- fore this, because I guess the fellow that run it decided it couldn’t run any longer without bein’ repaired, and he didn’t care to do that, so he shut her down, and she stayed down until a feller who manufactured leather comes along and looks it over and decides he will make paper—and he bought it pretty cheap. He was cheap himself, as I afterward learned.
“They used to once upon a time make some pretty good book paper at that mill,.60 he looked over the books and found out who the customers used to be, and then he goes and sees them and finds out if they wouldn't like some more of that paper they used to get from the mill; and they said they did providin’ he could give it to them at the old prices. He didn’t know what the old prices were, so they told him, and he afterward learned they were pretty low prices for a greenhorn to make paper for. He adver- tised and got a salesman and a super and a feller for the office.. The super hustled around and got help to start the mill, and I was one of the machine tenders he got, because I happened along about the time he was looking for one, and the other machine tender he brought with him from a modern mill. He and this feller used to run machine together, and they had the reputation of bein’ pretty good men, but it didn’t last. As for the rest of the help, I have never seen or expect to see anything like them in a mill. Say, Billy, I know some of them never saw a paper mill before. They did have one good beater engineer in the beater room, and it took most of his time watching his helper to keep him from throwin’ something in the beaters he hadn’t ought to. The other beater engineer never beat stuff for the machines with- out a Jordan engine, and he caused a lot of fun with the kind of stuff he thought could run on the machine.
“The first day we tried to start that mill we succeeded in getting about half a pail of stuff into the stuff box on the machine, and if we tried until now we would never got another bit unless we carried it from the stuff chest in pails. The starting up process

was all right as far as emptying the stuff from the beaters to the chest was concerned. But when the pump started the stuff from the chest to the stuff box on the machine the old copper pipes that it passed through refused to stand the strain, and they gave out in all It nearly broke the leather man’s heart when he had to get new pipes. You see, he was just beginning to find out what paper making was.

position, we tried again, and the stuff went its usual course. For a week previous to this myself and mate, with our backtenders, had been lumbering up the old machine. We put on felts and jackets and wire, and it was a circus to hear my mate, who had just left a job He wanted to know where the wire guide was, and the speed gears were an everlasting puzzle to him. There was a lot more things that he missed, but did not know how Some things on that machine had gone the But I felt as if I

looked for awhile as if the whole Fourdrinier was going to fall to pieces. About five minutes after we had the shake on one of the deckle strap pulleys fell to the floor, and mighty near into the I yelled to the modern man to strike the clutch out, and he caught hold of it as if it was one of these friction clutches we have nowadays. The clutch on that wire happened to be an old stager, and he nearly busted a blood vessel trying to stop that wire, and when it did strike out it come all of a sudden and nearly broke his back.
“We put the pulley on again and tightened all the nuts on the wire frame, and then we tried again. We got it on the first felt, but it was drawing too slack from the wire to the felt, and as the modern man was never called on to lag a pulley to change his drafts he was stuck as to how to make the paper draw up where he should. He put the thing up to me, and then I discovered that we had no lagging wax on hand. You see, Billy, I had so much to think of that I clean forgot it. It was a case of make some at once, so I told the modern machine tender to keep an eye on it till I come back. I hustles and got resin and ile, and I mixed it up pretty thick, and was on my way back to the machine room when I met my mate, who seemed greatly excited. ‘Hurry up!’ he yelled; ‘the wire is going in a wrinkle, and I can’t see what's the matter with the damn thing.’ I run and found her pretty near in a wrinkle as she was leaving the bottom couch toward the next carrying roll. As soon as I saw it I shifted the weight off the couch lever on the front side and she pulled straight. The leather maker, who was now learning to be a paper maker, was walking The super was with him, but did not attempt to help us out; he had a good reason to. Just as I got the draw between the wire and the felt straightened out the leather maker came up to me and says: ‘It seems she don’t want to run’ "I says: “We'll make it.’ He says: ‘Well, do it as quick as you can; of course I can’t use that paper when it’s - wet.’ I didn’t say any more, but I says to myself: ‘I can see your finish, old man.’ Over the wire there was a wooden frame, which was covered with old dryer felt to catch dirt or anything that could drop from the,roof of the mill. I had just told my

mate to put the paper to the second press, and he started to do so, and the super was tellin’ the leather man we were starting for good. Just then there was a crash, and down come the frame and dryer felt that hung over the wire. It was all up with that wire; there were two holes in it, big enough to stick your head in. We explained matters to the leather man, and it was hard to make him understand he would have to get us a new wire. He said they ought to last a year they cost so much, and when the super said four weeks for a wire was a pretty good time he nearly had a fit.
“Finally he was convinced that the only thing to do was to get a new wire, although in doing so it cost him some of the enthusiasm he had entertained for paper making. While waiting for the wire we spent the time scouting for anything else that we thought might go to pieces like the covering over the wire did. We found considerable that looked shaky. But what could we do about it only to tie or brace them up? The dryers on the machine looked as if they would not stand any sudden or great pressure, and as I looked them over I made up my mind that I would keep my eye on them and not overtax them at any cost. I found some of the teeth of the driving gears wore to a feather edge, and decided at once that if we ever run heavy sheets where slow speed was re- quired we might get it slow enough, but how steady it might be I could not guess, and so it was with everything I examined, it was all in or ready to be.
“The day after we lost the wire the leather man told us that the new wire would arrive next morning, and so it did, and we had it on the machine by noon, and at 1 o’clock we were all ready for another try at starting up. And for a wonder she did start fairly well, the only time that it happened for the four months that I worked there. But you ought to see the paper. It was to be clean, and well closed, and ‘nice,’ as the leather man put it. While we were starting he, in company with the super, watched us very closely. He had the sample which we were supposed to match under his arm. It was a very fine sheet of paper, which the buyer had told him they used to buy from the mill he now had the honor of operating, and he believed it and was trying to match it with a very ordinary cheap furnish for book paper. His super had had much experience in running a machine, but was almost green as far as the beating and coloring part of the busi- ness was concerned. Well, when we got the paper on the reel the super was the first to tear a bit out and present it to the leather man. He smiled as he took the first bit of paper (he had ever made) over to the window, so he could see better. He placed it beside his sample to see if the shade was the same. Well say, Billy, you know how a piece of blue white envelope paper looks when placed beside some unbleached .sulphite. Well, this paper we were mak- ing looked like the unbleached sulphite when placed beside that sample. And dirt! Don’t mention it; there was every kind of dirt, from a speck no bigger than the point of a pin to a scab of slime 2x4 inches. Say, it was a circus to see the leather man and the super. The leather man did not know the first thing about paper making, or else he would know what to expect in starting an old mill like that one. But he could not help knowing that he was not within a hundred miles of that sample. And he asked the super why, and the super explained, or nearly choked himself trying to, but without much result. The leather man was mad; he had expected great things from the start, and if the men knew their business he did not see why he could not Bet good results. If the super was a little older in experience he would have de- manded the leather man’s absence from the mill. He would have, when hired, come to some agreement whereby he was not to be interfered with in the manufacturing of the paper. But he had not had experience, and now instead of telling the leather man a thing or two he would have to know sooner or later he tried to soothe his disappointment by telling him that he should see paper that would be just what he wanted in an hour.” “Birty.”

Paper stock dealers declare that on the whole the market is entirely cleaned up of supplies, and that the mill men are pre- pared to take all kinds of stock quite as quickly as it comes into the warehouses and is sorted and packed. The high price and scarcity of soda pulp and sulphite have turned the attention of the mills to paper stock, and this explains the big demand, which is sufficient to meet the increased amount of stock being turned out by the printers and publishers and smaller consumers in this season of prosperity to al

Fighting Scotch Wall Paper Trust.
Consul Rufus Fleming, of Edinburgh, thinks there is a fair chance for the introduction of American wall paper into Great Britain in competition with British made papers. He says:
“Prominent retail dealers—paper hanging firms—in Edinburgh and elsewhere have at various times purchased American and French wall papers, despite the threats of the trust to stop the home supply if they bought too freely abroad. Not a few of the leading retail houses in every part of the country are bitterly hostile to the trust, as evidenced by a project now under consid- eration among English and Scottish firms to organize a company and establish works for the manufacture of certain classes of paper hangings. An old and important retail firm in East Scot- land is taking an active part in this movement. Undoubtedly the dealers, or a majority of them, would be greatly pleased to see a keen competition, domestic or foreign, in the wall paper industry. Their complaint agdinst the existing order of things is not con- fined to the cut made by the trust in their margin of profit. They say that the grades of paper hangings have deteriorated, that they are not now getting as good value for their money as they obtained a few years ago, and that their protests against de- liveries of inferior goods are unavailing. Wholesale dealers also say that wall paper has not been kept up to the old standard, and that if they make any objection to the goods received they are curtly told ‘that anything different will not be supplied. trust has not increased the prices of goods to the public.
“If our manufacturers are prepared to place on the market, largely and continuously, and at competitive prices, patterns of paper suited to British taste, they can get trade here. Retail dealers would buy suitable American goods if kept largely in stock by wholesale houses in London or any other convenient market.”
