WASHINGTON', Feb. 14. Con centration of the control of the standing timber in a very few nanus, vast spec ulative holdings "rar in advance of any use thereof," an enormous in crease In the vulue of this diminish ing "natural resource with great profits to its owners" und incidental ly "an equally sinister land monopoly" and "closely connected railroad dom ination" these are the limlings re ported to President Tuft by Herbert Knox Smith, commissioner of corpor ations, In tin- lirst installment of his long awaited report on the lumber Industry of the country. The report was made public today when sub mitted to coiigiess by the president. It constlluls the "lirst comprehensive nil methodical Investigation of the mount and ownership of our stuud- ig Umber." 'i'lu- report llself com prises :1s. printed puges but a sum- nary of its contents is contained in letter submitted by .Mr. Smith. A Combination in the Making. "There arc many great comhinn- lons In other industries, says the Miimissioner, "whose formation is omplete. In the lumber Industry on he o'her hand, the bureau now finds n the making a combination caused, fundamentally, by a long standing ii hlii- policy. In the last 40 years nceutration has so proceeded that 5 holders, many interrelated now ae practically one-half of the pn- itely owned timber in the lnvi-Btiga- i area (which contains SO per cent, the whole). This formidable pro- ess of concentration, In timber und land, certainly Involves grave fu- ure possibilities ot linpregliaiile mo- npolistie conditions whose far- reaching consequences to society It is now difficult to anticipate fully or to ver-estlmate. "The foremost facts shown are: 1 ) The concentration of a domlnat- ng control or our sianuing iimoer In comparatively few enormous oldings, steadily tending toward a entral control of the lumber lndus- tr (2) vast speculative purchase nil holding of. timber land far in dvanee of any use thereof; (3) an nornious increase In tne auie oi this diminishing resources, with great profits to its owners. This vulue by the very nature of standing timber. he holder neither created nor sub tanlially enhances. Result of Our Public Land I'olley. These are the underlying facts, of tremendous significance to the public elfare. They are primarily the re sults of our public land policy, long continued. The laws that represent that policy are still largely operative. The past history and present status of our standing timber drive home upon the imperative necessity of revis- ng our public policy for the future mnnagenient of our remaining natural resources." The commissioner then traces the nterval during which timber land passed from government to private ownership. "There is now left, he continues, 'in continental United suites aooui two thousand billion feet of privately owned standing Umber, of which 1747 billion Is In the investigation area covered In great detail by the bureau. This area Includes the Fn oine northwest, the southern pine re gion and the lake states and contains aboua 80 per cent, of all the private timber of the country, in addition there are about 639 billion feet In the nutlnmil forest and about 90 billion RESSLEY IS ABRESTFD LODGED IN P Coroner's Jury Decides That Dewane Kelley Was Killed by Blunt Instru ment In Pressley'i Hands.

English Jockey's Estate Valued at - tjoo.noo. New York, Feb. 14. Racing men learn that the will of the late Tom I,atra, the famous Fiifllsh Jockey, has been proved, showloaT the eUte to be vaiui d .it nearly ii00,0u. on other non-private lands. Thus the total amount of standing timber In continental United States is about 2S00 billion board feet. The present annual drain upon the supply of saw timber is about 60 billion feet. At this rate the timber now standing, without allowance for growth or de cay, would last only about 55 years. Worth Six Billion Hollars. "The present commercial value of the privately owned standing timber in the country not including the vulue of the land, Is estimated as nt least six billion dollars. Ultimately the consuming public will have to pay such prices for lumber us will give this timber a far greater value." The commi.Msion declares that three holdings alone, the greatest in the country, those of the Southern Pa eilie company, the Weyerhauser Tim ber company and the Northern Pa cilic Railway company (including their subsidiary companies) logethel have 2;1X billion feet, or nearly It per cent, of nil the privately owned limber of tin- country. The Southern Pine Region. "In the southern pine region." says the commissioner in taking up the description of various sections of tim ber lands, "there ure (134 billion feet of privately owned timber. Concen tration in total timber is much b-ss than iu tile Pacilic northwest. There i., however, a high concentration in tin- more valuable species, long lenl yellow pine and cypress. Sixty-seven holders own :i'l per cent, of the long b af yellow pine, 2!) per cent, of all the cypress. 19 per cent, of the short leaf and lobiolly pine and 11 per cent, of the hardwood." Coming then to the probable effect of this concentration, the commis sioner remarks, "such concentration In standing timber if permitted to continue and increase, makes prob able a linal central control of the whole lumber industry. A lew strong interests, ultimately holding the bulk of the timber, can set the price of timber and its products. Certain further factors, r.ot exact ly measurable. Increase still more the real concentration. First, a further interweaving of interests, corporate and personal, connects a great many holdings which the bureau has treat ed as separate; second there are very large areas of timber so scattered In small tracts through larger holding)- that they are substantially 'blocked In,' or 'controlled,' by the large hold ers: third, the concentration 1b much higher in the more valuable species, largest Holders Culling 1 It tie. "The largest holders are cutting little nf their timber. They thus re serve to themselves Incalculable prof' Its which are still to accrue with the growth of the country; the diminish ing of timber supply and the further concentration nnd control thereof Many of the very men who are pro testing nt'alnst conservation and th national forest system because of the tying up of natural resources are themselves deliberately tying them up far more effectively for private gait Tho fact that mature timber Is thus withheld from use is clear evidence that great additional profits are ex pected to accrue through further In crease in value. Standing timber if not the only question. When the timber has been cut the land remains. There has been crented, therefore, not only the frame work of an enormou timber monopoly but also an equally slnlstf- land combination In extensive aectlo.,a Involving also a great wealth In minerals."

Washington. Feb. 14. Two of ths most Important cases respecting the shipment and compression of cotton that ever have been brought before the Interstate commerce commission yesterday were assigned for hearing at Montgomery, Ala., beginning on March 3, and at Atlanta, (la., begin ning on March 8. The cases are those of the Com mercial and Industrial association of Union Hprings, Ala,, against the ("en tral of Georgia railroad and other carriers and the railroad commission of Aluhunia against the Central of Qeorglu railroad and others. Hoth cases affect the rates on. the shipment of cotton from every part of the cotton belt in the south, not only to points of compression, but to ultimate destinations In this country and in Europe. The complaint In the first case alleges unjust discrimination against cotton buyers, cotton mer chants and compressors; and the see. ond avers that the railroads invoke unreasonable and discriminatory reg ulations respecting the transporta tion of compressed cotton. Not only every cotton planter and every cotton buyer, but every railroad In the cot ton belt is interested directly In the adjudication of the rases. They art regarded as of so much Important- that Judge Clements, chairman of the commission, himself will go south to hear the testimony In them. May Kcml American Mexico.

REFUNDING OF CITY'S BONDS ONE MEASURE INTRODUCED Another Measure Hat Reference to Prompt Payment of County Taxec Other Legislative News from Capital. 'la'ette-News Bureau, Chamber of Commerce Rooms, llollemon Building, Italelfh, Feb. 14. N the house yesterday afternoon Representative Roberts of Bun combe, one of the lenders In tho general assembly at this session. In troduced several measures of interest to the people of his county ai:d sec tion. One of the measures introduced by Mr. Roberts had to do with the re funding of a part of the city's bonded indebtedness, another was designed to allow the county ot Buncombe to work convicts outside of the county; a third measure was for the purpose of encournulns the prompt payment nf county taxes and the fourth to allow th county commissioners to collect mileage. The house last night passed on sec ond rending the Ewart bill reducing, railroad fares to two cents on trains vh--e companies refuse to pull mile age on trains. Vote was 43 to 35. Objection by filllard, of Cherokee, to final reading f'-rced the bill over to another day. Th minority report was signed by Teague of Alexander, Alespaugh of Forsyth, Tavlor of Hert ford, ond Fmlth of Greene. , Chnirman Kay. of Macon, of the public service corporations committee iiiHitcd that tiie committee voted un animously to report the bill tmfavor- lbly and the minority report was se cured on misrepresentation as to the real meaning of the bill, not dream ing that it would open up all the old trouble which caused the extra ses sion or the legislature In 10K. He said the Baggett senate bill is und?r stond to be the proper bill and not the Ewart bill. SpHinhour, of Burke, did not care who introduced the bill. He inly knew that Covernor Kitchln recom mended it in his message: that the hill does not put the rate at two cents, but oni puts the rate at two cents, but onlv puts the rate at two cents where the railroads continue this inllesge book nuisance. Judge Ewart spoke for his bill, div ine, a history of the railroad legls'a tion of the past few years and de c laved that his measure simply carries out the governor's recommendation. Carr of Duplin, moved to re-refer; the motion was lost 42 to 19. Further argument against the bill wai made by Wallace, of Carteret, and !n Its favor by Itawls, of Pamlico, and Spa labour, of Burke. Alfred of Johnston, offered as A substitute the Baggett senate bill. Dillard of Cherokee opposed the bill on the ground that the people who do not wish to do so, do not have to buy mllcase bocks, the trouble being th.it the rllroads have the right to with draw the mileage book privilege. Buttle, of Wake, also opposed the Dill, sav ing matters would be better If left s ut present though to exchange P S NTS mileage for tickets Is Inconvenient. , The substitute was lost by a vote of 69 to 8. The bill then passed second reading 2 to 35, going over for third reading; on objection nf Dillard, of Cherokee. Tile House. Speaker Pro. Tern.
