HARDWOOD LUMBER 



Indianapolis. 



The planing and sawmill owned by Morton 

 Lockwood of Auburn. Ind., was burned on the 

 night of Feb. 2S, entailing a loss of .$5,000. The 

 fire, which started in the engine room, totally 

 destroyed the frame building with all the stock 

 and machinery. The factory may be rebuilt. 



The Finnell Stroup Lumber Company of Ko- 

 komo. Ind., has been incorporated with a capital 

 stock of $10,000. the object being to deal in 

 lumber and products manufactured from lum- 

 her. The directors are Julius W. Pinnell. 

 Charles R. Stroup and Samuel K. Stroup. 



W. W. Knight, president of the Long-Knight 

 Lumber Company, returned Wednesday from 

 Philadelphia, where he attended the National 

 Wholesale Lumber Dealers' Association conven- 

 tion. In company with a number of other 

 lumbermen Mr. Knight attended the inaugura- 

 tion of Roosevelt and Fairbanks at Washington. 

 D. C. 



.T. M. Pritchard. secretary of the Long-Knight 

 Lumber Company, left Wednesday for a two 

 weeks' trip to Memphis, Tenn., in the inter- 

 ests of the company. 



The Greer-Houghton Lumber Company of In- 

 dianapolis has been incorporated with a capital 

 stock of $25,000. the directors being E. H. 

 Greer, B. C. Greer, D. >L Houghton and Grace 

 N. Houghton. 



The Rossville Lumber Company has been in- 

 corporated with a capital stock of $7,500 to do 

 a retail lumber business at Rossville. Ind. The 

 directoi-s are L. .V. Kramer, J. F. Kramer and 

 L. R. Kramer. 



.\ Henry county farmer living near Newcastle, 

 Ind., has sold three hundred and eighty-five 

 white oak trees for $1,500, which is said to be 

 the largest single timl>er deal in that county 

 in a number of years. The trees are on the 

 farms of J. F. Thompson and E. W. Clift. and 

 were bought by J. A. Sheets, representing the 

 Union City Lumber Company of Union City. 

 Ind. The company will saw up the trees for 

 ties for the Big Four Railroad Company. 



The Indiana state legislature, which ad- 

 journed Monday, passed both the Xewhouse rail- 

 road commission bill and the Guirl tire insurance 

 bill, which the Indiana Hardwood Lumber Deal- 

 ers' Association was anxious should be passed. 

 The railroad commission bill will no doubt 

 give the shipper much needed relief, although 

 it is generally conceded that the $19,000 an- 

 nually which was appropriated for the work of 

 the commission will be inadequate for all the 

 needs. 



Cleveland. 



Fire started among piles of lumber in the 

 Advance Lumber Company's yards at Ohio and 

 Seneca streets Sunday afternoon, Feb. 26. It 

 was discovered by a watchman making his 

 rounds through the district and was kept from 

 spreading by the fire companies which responded 

 to the first alarm. Loss reported. $400. 



Schaber. Reiuthal & Co., manufacturers of 

 moldings, have been succeeded by John Schaber. 



W. O. Ilarter of the J. M. Card Luu-.her Cnni- 

 pany. Chattanooga. Tenn.. stopped here for two 

 or three days last week. He was on his way to 

 Canada, where his firm enjoys a good trade. 



P. D. Gordon of Mason. Gordon & Co., Mon- 

 treal. Que., was in this city recently. He reports 

 business good. 



S. B. Taylor, manager of the Columbus. O., 

 oflice of Ci-osby & Beckley. was in town last 

 week.

 tral Lumber Company have returned from a

 nue one day recently 'with his automobile.

 considering weather conditions. 



The Advance Lumber Company reports a sat- 

 isfactory trade. Extreme cold weather and 

 lieavy snows have for the past three or tour 

 weeks interfered with sliipplng. 



Buffalo. 



Some progress has lately been made in tbe 

 settlement of the affairs of hardwood concerns 

 that sometime ago went into bankruptcy. In 

 the Meusinger Lumber Company case the court 

 is now trying to determine whether George H. 

 Cheely of Nashville is a partner and if the 

 members of Fall & Co. have any assets at their 

 former home in Nashville. If not the creditors 

 will need to contribute sometlting to meet the 

 I urrent cost of settling the business. As the 

 claim against the Queen i.ity Lumber Company 

 is to be resisted it will have to be dropped 

 otherwise. The Queen City has paid a 20 per 

 cent dividend and will pay at least as mucb 

 more. 



The annual meeting of the Buffalo Lumber 

 Exchange takes places on March 11. There 

 does not appear to be any actual "slate" out, 

 though so far as appears the usual plan will 

 be to advance the vice president to first place 

 after the president in oflice has had tw-o terms 

 in case he will accept more than one year. 

 George B. Montgomery is the present vice 

 president. 



I. ■>.■. Stewart & Bro. are receiving and also 

 shipping out considerable cherry, but are not 

 standing by that lumber alone. H. A. Stewart 

 of the firm having gone south after oak. 



J. N. Scatcherd is off to Memphis, having 

 made a short cut that way from the Philadel- 

 phia meeting. More oak logs and timber is the 

 object of the visit. 



O. E. Yeager finds that chestnut lumber sells 

 well and looks for it to become more active 

 on account of the scarcity of oak, which is 

 greater than formerly, scarce as it has been 

 for some time. 



G. Ellas & Bro. are looking carefully to their 

 special stock o£ timber. Business is good for 

 the season. 



The Hugh McLean Lumber Company is keep- 

 ing all its southern oak mills in operation 

 right along, but finds that oak is still the 

 scarcest of lumber. 



M. M. Wall has returned from Cambridge 

 Springs and will be especially busy while J. 

 B. Wall is south. The home yard of the 

 Buffalo Hardwood Lumber Company still makes 

 oak its long suit, but finds that it goes fast. 



The Standard Hardwood Lumber Company 

 has lately further improved its office by in- 

 ternal changes. A. W. Kreinheder is back from 

 the company's Tennessee mills, having started 

 a large lot of oak and chestnut this way. 



A. Miller finds that his all-round assortment 

 laid in last season holds out well in spite of 

 good sales through the winter, for he has stead- 

 ily added to it, especially of oak and maple. 



Some especially good sales of round lots of 

 hardwood are reported by Taylor & Crate, 

 which is always a good indication of the best 

 of feeling in the trade generally. 



It is expected that F. W. Vetter of the Em- 

 pire Lumber Company will remain at the Ar- 

 kansas mills of the company for sometime, add- 

 ing to oak and cypress stocks. 



Grand Bapids. 



The J. 1'. Quigley Lumber & Land Company, 

 capital $100,000. has filed articles of incorpora- 

 tion under the state laws a-nd succeeds to the 

 hardwood lumber business of the J. F. Quigley 

 Lumber Company of this city. Large offices 

 liave been opened downtown on the ground
