Berlin. March 9. Closely follow-

at the Hotel Adlon here, of which
Prince Joachim Albrecht of Prussia
was the chief figure leading a dem
onstration against a party of French
officers in the dining room, another
anti-allied incident is reported from
Bremen. Tlie victims in this case
also were French officers, who ar?
members of the entente military
commission.
When the Frenchmen entered the
barracks in Bremen to conduct
negotiations with German officers,
the accounts run, the soldiers sang
Deutchland Uber Alles.
The singing attracted a large
crowd which roughly handled the

ThiP police dispersed the crowd and
escorted the orhcers to their quar

By court decree Judge Everett
Allen Davis of the Dukes county

that in the future the appellation

burden to the child, but did not dis
close whether politics, national or
international made "Woodrow Wil
son" undesirable.

the boy home with him. Shell hur
ried after his father-in-law and
begged him to give up the child.
Chappell refused. , Shell returned
home, secured his flintlock rifle,
which he said he made himself more
than .100 years ago, mounted his
mule and started after Chappell and
the boy. He overtook them several
miles away and at the point of the
gun forced Chappell to give up the
child. "Uncle John" took the bo
on the mule with him and they re
turned alone to their cabin , on

needs until some one is found who
is willing to go, to his lonely cabin

SPOKANE LUMBEI
GO. WILL REDUCE
PRICES AT ONCE
General Manager's Statement
Says Move Is Initial Step to
Beat Down High Living "
, Cost.
Cltlrago Trlbuae-Omatut Bee leased Wkr
Spokane. Wash., March 9. A t
duction of 10 to 30 per cent
prices of all Weyerhauser lumbci
products is announced. The reduq
tton is guaranteed until June 1 anej
will be participated in by the K
great subsidiary companies of tht
Weyerhauser interests.
Coming as the most staggeriii
blow at the tendency toward risinj
prices in all commodities the an
nouncement was made publu
through L, S. Case, general man
ager of the Weyerhauser Sales conv
pany of Spokane, general headquaj
ters of the Weyerhauser interests.
Knock at H. C of L. . v
To stabilize the lumber industry
to stimulate building of homes and
to take the initial steps toward tht
bearing down of the high cost ot
living, the Weyerhauser Sales ,com
pany has "taken the bull by tlu
Horns" and will do all in Us powei
to bring "a revision of conditions
which have been abnormal for many
months" the statement of Manager
Case announced.
Mr. Case stated that the price of
lumber has advanced to such a high
mark because of speculation that
the companies are ashamed to take ,
the money.
"For many months the lumbet
market has been in a most unsettled
condition. The demand for lumber
is abnormal and greatly exceeds the
available supply; the car shortage
and other transportation difficulties
have restricted deliveries and price
advances have been frequent and
regular. Lumber prices already on
a high level have substantially ad
vanced since the beginning of the
present year and further advances
seem probable.
Condition Is Injurious.
"The interests comprising the to- '
called '' Weyerhauser group have
come to recognize that this condi
tion bf the market is injurious to the '
public and to industry generally;
that the uncertainty, even more than'
the price level, is demoralizing arid
the result is in enhanced cost of
building and .discourages construe-
tion and that unless something is
done to check the present tendency
toward, further and frequent and Ir
regular advances which have no re
lation to costs ot production, the sit- .
nation will become still more dc.
plorable. " k. ,
"They feel .that the level of luiii
her prices reached early in January
is sufficiently; high to compensate
the industry; that further advances
Will be unduly burdensome to the
public and are not warranted by ex.- '
isting conditions and that the time
has come to call a halt. Lumber, is.
selling freely today at prices ranging
from $5 to $25 per thousand abpvjL-.
the early January prices." Z
