THREE STATES'
INDUSTRIES
Cenaua Dnrenu Shovra Up the Manu-
fnctnrlnst Conditions In Idaho,
NeTadn and Wyoming.
Washington, July 24.-Tho census bu-
reau today gave out a statement showing
h ennrlltlnn nf the manufacturer Indus-
tries of Idaho, Nevada and Wyoming.
Idaho showed a gain In 1890 In the value
OI proauct wnicn wan -t,iu,oj.;. ivyuujiut. a
product was ,4,l.iu, a gain oi i per cent
over 1S90. The manufacturing proauct oi
Nova,ia WBg $1,643,675. This Is a slight lm-
provemont over the showing of 1890. The
principal manufactured product of Idaho in
1900 was lumber. The principal Item In
both Wyoming and Nevada Is the output of
the railroad repair shops. Referring to tho
showing made in Nevada, cnier Statistician!
North of the census bureau says:
"A comparison with the censuses of 1880
and 1890 shows a general decrease In the
manufacturing and Industrial conditions of
the state between 18S0 and 1890 and an In
crease between 1890 and 1900. It Is prob
able, however, that this Increase during
the last decade Is only apparent and la due
to n closer canvass In this sparsely settled
region in 1900 than in 1890. This general
decline In manufactured products Is a di
rect result of tho decrease in the popula-
tlon a decrease which began about 1S50
Sa?..;
continued to the present time."
CONCERNING MILITARY POSTS
Secretary Ttoot Will Have Board of
Investigation Created to Learn
All Abnnt Them.
WASHINGTON. July 24. Secretary Root
has directed tho preparation of an order
creating a board of array officers to tn-
vestla-ate the whole subject of changes in
the military noats throughout tho country.
This board will consider proposed changes
In headquarters, the establishment or
abandonment ot military posts and also
the proposed establishment of four promt-
nrnt posts for military maneuvers. It is
expected that Instead ot four camps of this
character only two will be established,
namely, Fort Riley In the west and an-
other somewhere In the east. The board,
however, will only make recommendations,
as congressional action will be necessary
ror such establishment and changes.
