THE ORANGE INDUSTRY.
Its Remarkable Expansion in California
During the Past Year.

Its Remarkable Expansion in California
During the Past Year.
SAN Francisco, July 16.-"The expan-
sion OF the orange-growing industry in
this state during the past year has been
remarkable" said Secretary Lelong of
the state horticultural commission to-
day. cit is fact that all the orange
stock in the hands of the nurserymen
has been exhausted, and no more young
trees are to be had. This state of affairs
however, cannot last beyond another
year. Next season there will be plenty
of mature stock, and whatever the de-
mand may be for orange trees, it can be
easily supplied.
'The prospects are," continued he,
"that the supply of oranges for the
United States, exclusive of importations,
will have to be met by California. Advices
so far indicate that Florida will not pro-
duce her usual crop this season on ac-
count of early frosts. In our own state
the area planted to oranges has been
materially increased. In Los Angeles
county at least 5000 acres have been
added to the orange-producing lands in
the last two years, and in San Bernar-
dino county at least as much more. In
Yuba county the Colmena colony has
planted $4,000 orange trees in the last
year, and Sutter county has done nearly
as we'll. In Placer county 100000 new
orange trees have been added during
the past two years. California shipped
last year 3,400 cars of oranges, valued at
$1,575, 900, and this amount ought to be
materially increased, provided the con-
ditions continue favorable"

MINNESOTA FARMERS.
They Unite With the Labor Party for In
dependent Politics.

ST. PAUL, July 16.-A special meeting
of the Farmers Alliance of Minnesota
was held here today. President Hall, in
his address, said the farmers of Mime
sofa has assembled for the purpose of
deciding upon taking some independent
action. The convention had been called
upon the urgent demand of the sub
alliances throughout the state. "You
delegates" said President Hall, 'have a
great work ahead of you. This means
the beginning of new political party,
and hope you will return to your homes
with knowledge that your work is we'll
DONE"
Ignatius Donnelly made brief adj
dress. He said the newspapers had
charged that he was scheming against
the alliance, etc. This was false.
At the evening session a motion to de-
eide whether the convention should
place state ticket in the field brought
on a hot discussion on the question OF
independent political action, to which
there was considerable opposition. The
motion to take independent political ac-
ton, however, finally carried by an
overwhelming vote. The convention
then took a recess, and entered into
joint convention with the labor dele
gates to place joint ticket in the field.
The officers of the alliance were made
officers of the joint convention. One
ballot was taken for governor, and re-
suited: Knute Nelson, 104; Ignatius
Donnelly, 98; Daniel Buck, g.; Henry

THE LAKE PEPIN VICTIMS.
One Hundred Bodies Recovered and 8
Dozen More Missing.

One Hundred Bodies Recovered and a
Dozen More Missing.
RED WING, Mimi, July 16.-The dole
full tolling of church bells was still to be
heard in this city today, the list of re-
covered dead of the disaster having been
greatly increased since yesterday. Eight
bodies were brought up this morning.
In the afternoon sixteen more were
brought up, and one was sent over to
Lake City, and tonight another boatload
arrived. This swells the list of recovered
dead to one hundred, and it is thought
about a dozen bodies still lie in the lake.
The scene at the lake shore (the disas-
ter having occurred two miles this side
of Lake City in Goodhue county, is a
sad one. When the first bodies were re-
covered Sunday night and Monday
morning, the faces were calm and peace
full and showed little or no signs of hay
ing come to a sudden death. Not SO
with those found last night and today
All these were bloated and blackened
beyond recognition, so that clothing and
jewelry and papers were the only way
for friends to claim their dead. The
warm weather and Liallowness of the
water, together with the fact that sew
eral big steamers sent up heavy swells
today as they passed up the river,
brought the bodies to the surface very
quickly. Patroling row boats towed the
bodies ashore, where they were identi-
fed as soon as possible and boxed and
shipped to this city.
Engineer Sparks, of the Sea Wing, to-
night entered an emphatic denial of the
report that he, the captain, or any of the
crew had been drinking. The friends of
Sparks and Captain Wetheren are also
indignant at the charge of drunkenness
The reported arrest of Captain Wetheren
is not false. A man who came tonight
from Diamond Bluff, f,where the captain 8
f.me is situated, says the sheriff took
Wetheren to St. Paul this afternoon,
having arrested him at the instance OF
the United States officials.

Marvin Declines to Make 1t Race-The
Yankee Team Wins the International
Cricket Match-Baseball Games.

BUFFALO, N. Y, July 16.-"Negotia-
tions are pending for race against time
between Belle Hamlin and Sunol, at the
grand circuit races in this city," re-
marked G. ]. Hamlin yesterday.
"Marvin declined to trot Sunol against
Belle in race, but rather favored the
idea OF going against time. The idea is to
have Sunol go on warming heat and then
Belle Hamlin, and then to send each
one of them separately, accompanied by
running horse, if desired, and the
mare making the fastest time to be en-
titled to first money. 1 preferred to
make the match race, but that being
out of the question L think the above
proposition is perfectly fair. Sunol is
very fast, and with a good day close to
2:10 will be made"
