RIVERSIDE, Jan. 8. 8.-[Special to the
HERALD.l Another cold wave has Wis
tied this county and the orange crop
has suffered. The loss will be copsid-
e,able, but just how much no one can
saw. Horticulturiats are of the opinion
that the loss will not be as heavy as it
was in 1891, but it will take some time
to tell to what extent the fruit is
damaged.
I. Il. B. 'Chamblin and Chairman W.
A. Perry OF the fruit exchanges informed
the HERALD representative that there
would be some loss of the late varieties,
but the earlier fruit had not suffered
much.
To show that they did not think the
buyers were squeamish in purchasing
fruit, Mr.. Perry said that they sold nine
carloads today.
The regular meeting OF the executive
committee OF the Southern California
Fruit exchange WAS held this afternoon
in the Loring block, and favorable re-
ports were received from all sections
Mr.. Chamblin said that the exchange

Los ANGELES THEATER-The wear and
tear of retresting years seem to have
spared Joseph Murphy, the favorite
Irish comedian, who played Shaun
Rhue to fairly good house last night.
Mr.. Murphy is no longer youth. but
his voice is marvelously fresh and true
when he sings the Handful of Earth.
His disguise as the far-down man is
good, and he gets all that is possible out
of his scene in the lawyers Office, al
though it is not as busy scene as the
one he used to give in Maun Cree l5
years ago.
His support is good, and Anita Fallon
gives spirited rendition of the plucky
Irish girl who prefers death to disgrace.

HIsHLANDs, Jan. S.-ISpecial to the
HERALD The various orchards in this
vicinity have not been seriously affected
by the cold spell that visited Southern
California during the past three days.
W. W. Blanchard, prominent grow
er, is positive that the crop is not dam
aged much, as he has examined several
orchards and found the fruit in good
condition. He has self-registering,
government tested thermometer, and
the lowest it recorded was rs degrees
and in most places it was not below rs
or 81 degrees. Oranges will not freeze
till the air is % degrees or colder. All
the fruit is on elevated ground in this
vicinity. The young nursery stock was
slightly affected.

CoLToN. Jan. 8.-[Special to the HER
ADD Slight damage is reported to the
orange crop in the low lands in this
neigh borhood. The fruit is not affected
to any large extent on Cotton terrace, as
the cold spell was not so severe as was
first thought.
The temperature ranged from %
degrees to 81 degrees. The fruit north
of here at Rislto ia affected some, but
just how badly it is impossible to say.

Struck Below the Belt.

SAN Francisco, Jan. S.-The orange
crop of Southern California appears to
have been more seriously injured than
the press dispatches indicate. General
kAsgs Agsnt Ceaslfda IF tRe MltjUIHep
a telegram from Los Angeles, saying
all authorities on orange culture i'll that
part of the state declare that the dam
age to the oranges is greater than it was
two years ago. Later in the day dis
patches were sent asking for 2 reduced
freight rate that would permit OF the
speedy shippingof injured oranges out oi
orchards to near by points, so that they
could reach the consumers before the III
effects of the frost have made the fruit
unfit for use. The present rate on or
anges from shipping points in the citrus
belt to San Francisco is 81 % per l0C
pounds. The orange-growers ask that
this be reduced to S71a cents per 100
pounds. Two years ago when
frost struck the southern part
OF the state below the citrus
belt, similar appeal for low freight
rates was made, and the railroad COM
panies made concession 80 that the
fruit was hauled to this city and CORE
spending points for 80 cents per 10(
pounds.

Caught by DecOy Letters.

STEVENS POINT, Wis, March 2.-Tas-
kell A. Smith, letter carrier here, was
arrested and lodged in jail last
evening on charge of robbing
the mail. For some time he had
been suspected of rifling the mails, but
not until last evening was there evil
dence against him sufficient to cause his
arrest. Decoy letters were deposited
in the mail boxes on his route,
which he was found to have in
his possession after he had made
the evening collection and delivered
his mail to the post-office. He has
since made full confession in writing
Of his theits, in which he frankly adj
mits his guilt. Smith is a
young man of bright intellect
and has heretofore borne an honorable
reputation. He mas been employed as
carrier about a year and previous to
his appointment held a clerkship in the
post-otfice. He states that he has
been tampering with the mails for
about nine months. The amount of
money he has extracted from letters
will not exceed $25. Smith is an UNI
married man.

Average.

Thus you will see that first class Aus
tralian wool, although unwashed and
free from skirts, is so clean that the
shrinkage is only per cent as against
shrinkage of 60 per cent for Washington
county unwashed wool with the skirts
on. Washington county washed feeces,
with the skirts on, will shrink 55 per
cent. If we had free wool, the London
price would be the American price, for
the freight from London to New York is
only One-fourth cent per pound, which is
less than the freight on wool from Wash
ington county farms to the same market.
Therefore, with free wool, the Washing
ton county farmer will have to sell scour-
ed merino wool free from skirts at 364
cents.
It is estimated that the loss on the
skirts, tag locks, legs and belly wool is
from to cents per pound on American
woods to make them equal to Australian
skirted woods. Assuming that 81 cents
would be the average loss on skirts on
Pennsylvania unwashed wool, the Amer
lean farmer with free trade would have
to sell secured wool, including the skirts,
at 30 cents in order to make it cost not
over 364 cents with the skirts off. Wash
ingtOn county unwashed wool shrinks
IS per cent, yielding IS pounds Of clean
secured wool at 80 cents; the free trade
price would make the unwashed fleece
worth 81 cents in the New York mar
ket. 1t cost at least 2 cents per pound TO
get it to the eastern market without any
10 IL
free trade price on the farm for unwash-
ed fleece would be not over 81 cents for
such wool as our friend sold there re-
Gently at a cents, and this wool that
was worth IA cents under the free wool
administration of Grover Cleveland was
worth 90 cents on the day that General
Harrison left the White House, March,
1898.
Now, there has been no change in the
tariff law since then, but the reason that
this Pennsylvania farmer got IA cents
this year instead of 90 cents last year
was because it's free trade value is only
81 cents, and the fall from 20 cents to ID
cents was discounting the effect of free
wool bill. The nearer we come to the
passage of that bill the nearer will be
the price ON the farm in Washington
county to the London price of 81 cents
for such unwashed as was worth 20cents
last March.
On page 260 of The American Econo-
mist of Nov. is a table showing the
price in London and also in the United
States for the same grade Of Ohio wool
and Australian wool from the time of
the passage of the tariff law of 1867 up
to 1891. The average difference in the
price of wool of the same shrinkage, Of

WORK OF AN INCENDIARY.

RHINELANDER, Wis, March 1.-TWO
unquestionably incendiary fires were
started between 3 and o'clock this
morning, but were extinguished before
getting beyond small damage. They
were in the center Of the business
blocks and would have caused great loss
had they not been gotten under con-
troll. A character known as pollock
Bill" who has long been suspected of
being fire bug, was seen in close prox-
unity to the buildings before the fire
started and has been arrested. The
police placed him in Jail, but failed to
find him there this morning. He had
a key to the lookup and also to
each cell. He locked the jail
on his departure. He was recaptured
about II o'clock and will have a prelim-
mary hearing this afternoon. There is
said TO be strong evidence against him.
The people are excited and the case will
be thoroughly investigated.

States under protection, and but for this
American protection the London price
would have been the American price,
and the American woolgrower would
have received less than half Of the price
which he did receive under "a years Of
protection. Or, in other words, if the
American farmer had sold his wool in
London instead of in America, he would
have received less than half Of the prices
actually obtained here.

THE PRICE OF WOOL.
HOW THE FREE RAW MATERIAL BILL
HAS AFFECTED THE FARMER.

Clear Comparison of London and Ameri-
can Prices-The Change From Harrison
TO Cleveland Caused q Difference of G
Cents Per Pound.
The Cannonsburg Herald of Washing
ton county, Pa, states that lone of our
farmers recently sold his unwashed wool
at IA cents per pound. Unwashed wool
was then quoted at is cents per pound
in the London market. The duty on
wool was II cents. Add a cent for car
riage, and foreign wool would cost 81
cents laid down in New York. Our
friend got a cents. We would like to
know where the protection comes in."
Such wool as brings Is cents in the
London market is twice as valuable as
the IA cent unwashed Pennsylvania
wool. The former is skirted Australian
md is so clean that in any market it
would command a higher price than the
cleanest fleece washed woods of Wash
ington county, to say nothing of un-
washed. We might as we'll compare
gold and silver, because they are pre-
cious metals, as to compare Washington
county unwashed with Australian I'M
washed. They are neither in the same
condition. The wool which this Wash
ington county farmer sold in Washing
ton county at IA cents is worth only 81
cents in London. and with free wool the
London price would be the American
price in New York, and on the farm it
would be at least 2 cents per pound less
than the price in New York, or 81 cents,
because it would cost over 2 cents per
pound to get wool from the farm in
Washington county to the eastern mar
ket.
In confirmation of the free trade value
of Washington county wool we refer to
the following table procured by the Ma
tional Association of Wooden Manufac-
turers, giving the cost in London Of GER
tain lots of Australian unwashed woods
competing with Washington county
woods. The average price was 10 cents
III London for unwashed skirted wool,
the average shrinkage Of which was 48
per cent, and the average clean secured
cost was 361 cents:
