shippers generally. He will have as his assistant William W. Gull, for 

 merly with the Merchants and Miners* Transportation Company. 



Thomas Matthews & Sou, Inc., who succeeded the old established firm 

 of Thomas Matthews & Son on the death of Mr. Matthews, are moving 

 to their new yard in Westport, where they will have considerably more 

 space. The yard on Dock street, also occupied by the old firm for many 

 years, has been taken over by the Atlantic Mill & Lumber Company farther 

 east on Dock street, and the new owner is erecting thereon a large double- 

 decker lumber shed. Other improvements are also being made. 



One of the visiting lumbermen here in the last two weeks was Chester 

 F. Korn of the Korn-Conkling Company of Cincinnati. Mr. Korn stopped 

 in Baltimore on his way duwn to Norfolk to look after various export 

 shipments of lumber, which he desired to get aboard vessels. He stated 

 that so far as his information went stocks at the mills were very light. 



A number of prominent financiers and business men, reinforced by a 

 minister and others, have formed themselves into what has become the 

 Citizens' Conciliation Committee, to hear the grievances of the men 

 employed in the building trades here, which had for some time threatened 

 a strike of such proportions as to tie up construction work. Having heard 

 what the employes had to say, the committee gave the contractors a chance 

 to present their side, and this is now being done. Meanwhile, however, 

 tlirough the intervention of the committee, the impending suspension of 

 activities has been averted, and there is not believed to be any danger now 

 that the work will be interrupted, which would mean a serious check upon 

 the demand for lumber. 



The East Brooklyn Building & Supply Company, of which F. C. StoH 

 is the head, is making extensive improvements at its yard in Brooklyn. 

 South Baltimore. It has purchased a considerable tract of land border- 

 ing on its yard to the east and contemplates the erection of an oflBce build- 

 ing with other structures, which latter will give it materially augmented 

 facilities. 



COLUMBUS 



Building operations in Columbus and in fact all central Ohio continue to 

 improve. This is evidenced by the record of permits issued by the Colum- 

 bus building department, which show new high records. 



I*''or a single week recently the department issued permits having a 

 valuation of $188,000, of which twenty-five were for dwellings costing 

 slightly more than $150,000. Since the "Build Your Home" campaign has 

 been under full sway in Columbus there has been on the average of twenty- 

 five new dwellings projected each week. Recently professional builders 

 have gotten into the game to construct dwellings and apartments for rent- 

 ing purposes. Previously the larger part of the dwellings projected were 

 by home builders. A report from the village of Upper Arlington, a suburb 

 of Columbus shows that forty-nine dwellings are under way there. These 

 do not come under the jurisdiction of the city building department. 



Homer W. Collins of H. W. Collins & Co., hardwood jobbers in the 

 Chamber of Commerce building, has returned from a business trip in the 

 Clinch Valley, Va.. where he reports restricted output at the mills beeause 

 of increasing labor shortage. 



The Cuyahoga Millwork Company has been chartered with a capital of 

 -SIO.OW by L. Orohs, P. M. Wheedlin, D. Klosheim, M. L. Harrington and 

 P. Kuederle. 



The West Virginia Timber Company, Cleveland, has been incorporated 

 with a capital of $10,000 by Alonzo M. Suyder, Robert E. Roehm, Horatia 

 Ford. M. A. Maroni and H. M. Gallagher. 



A meeting of the Southern Pine Salesmen's Sei-vice Association has been 

 scheduled to be held at the Deshler hotel, Columbus, September 5. 



Car shortage is causing considerable delay in the receipt of hardwood 

 shipments into the Buckeye capital. This situation is growing worse 

 instead of lietter and as a consequence there is bidding for various grades 

 <)f hardwoods. 



F. B. Pryor of the W. M. Bitter Lumber Company reports a good demand 

 for hardwoods both from factories and retailers. He says prices are con- 

 tinually advancing and it is a question where the advance will stop. Retail 

 stocks are light and factory purchasing agents are trying to accumulate a 

 surplus of hardwoods. 



MEMPHIS 



The Krause Hardwood Dimension Company, with a capital stock of 

 $10,000, has made application for a charter under the laws of Tennessee. 

 It will engage in the handling of dimension stock at wholesale but pro- 

 poses later to engage in the manufacture thereof. A. R. Krause, who has 

 had considerable experience in the hardwood dimension business in this 

 city, will head the new firm. Among those associated with him will be : 

 John E. Lippltt. manager of the ^Memphis offices of the Prudential Life 

 Insurance Company : John D. Martin, president of the Memphis Baseball 

 A.ssociation. and J. R. Beauchamp, of the Union & Planters Bank & Trust 

 Company. OflSces will be in the building owned by the latter institution. 



The Pritchard-Wheeler Lumber Company, with offices in Memphis and 

 mills in Louisiana, has filed application for an amendment to its charter 

 whereby it seeks to increase its capital stock from .S300.000 to $500,000. 

 The application is signed by William Pritchard. C. L. Wheeler, C. G. 

 Kadel, Paul Rush, C. P. Bodine and other stockholders. This company 

 has extensive timberland holdings in Louisiana. It purchased these several 

 years ago with a view to putting in two big band mills. It erected one of 

 these and is now operating it on a large scale. It has never, however.
