QuARRlES CLOSE DOWN.
Baker Bros. Have Trouble with Their
Plant Mt Boyds, Md.


The plant of the government quar-
ries at Dickinson, Nd, which is
operated by the Standard Lime and
Stone Company and furnished the
District of Columbia with crushed
stone for street making has been shut
down partly for the past few days on
account of the abutments of the plant
settling and throwing the plant out Of
alignment. The weakening of the
abutments it is thought is due to the
heavy crushing of stone and the
fact that the masonry work was laid
non fill made when the building
was erected and not upon solid earth.
The old contract between the Dis
trlct of Columbia and Baker Brothers
for furnishing stone have now run
out and new contract has been made,
but it is not of as large an amount as
the former contract.

making improper proposals on the
same night to the little Schoppert
girl, aged about u years.
At the .hearing Wednesday Mayor
Henshaw released Schoppert. having
reached the conclusion from the evil
dence that he was no more to blame
than his wife. RIdenour was fined
SO and costs, amounting TO So. 20, for
his conduct. The fine was paid.
The hearing at the Mayors Office
brought to light startling state OF
affairs. In order to get the two boys,
Charles and Henry, aged and 10
years respectively, away from their
unhappy home a complaint was made
before Justice Snyder, charging them
with being incorrlgible. They were
taken into custody and will be sent
to the Reform School. A. H. Walker
was appointed guardian I'D litem.
An effort Will also be made to send
the young girl to the Girls Industrial

3. & 0. MOTIVE POWER.
Some OF the New Engines Have Proven
Failures, Others Are Good.

Three is just now another great der
mand for motive power ON the b. and
o. Business has picked UP SO wonder
fully during the past month that it is
with great difficulty that train dis
patches can keen freights moving. 1t
seems TO be question with the COM
pany What kind of engines to order.
Those recently turned out Of the
works give satisfaction in way but
do not come up to expectation. The
engines of the 1900 class are fine run
ners and pullers but are ton heavy
and dangerous and will topple over
any time the one side sinks little
lower than the other rhe 1900 cars
class were dead disappointment while
the 1900 engines are big enough they
are not strong enough pullers and re-
quire lots OF care and attention. The
new 2, 900 class have not as yet been
thoroughly tested but it seems for
heavy passenger traffic they fill the
bill Engines nowadays must be
WE'LL nigh perfect TO meet the re-
quirements of an up-to-date road
like the b. q O. is beginning to be,
and tn re will be lots OF experiments
tried until the proper kind is made,
then there will be no more scarcity OF
motive power as the copmany has the
money TO buy engines with, but are
puzzled what kind to buy.

THE APPLE CROP.
rs~ va,oe as Great as wheat and cor,s..

Its Value as Great as wheat and CornN
How little we hear CT the value of
the apple crop and vet ON an average
|yleld ID is worth more than the aver
age crop. OF tho great cereal crops
only corn exceeds 1t in value every
year. only occasionally and III ex-
ecptional years is wheat worth
more.
The American apple crop for 1900
aggregated si5, 900, 600 barrels, being
worth at an average price Of So per
barrel, the enormous aggregate Of
$i80, 600, 900.
Compare these figures with the fol-
lowing:
Corn crop Of 1890. 5000. alo, liz; haxs
crop Of 1890. $4li, a26 1877; wheat croTs
OF 1890, 1919, 5l5 20; cotton crop OIL

si9S. l67,9 75.
In the case OF most Of these farm
products the yield and its value frona
year to year is pretty accurately ap-
proximated. But the estimate given
above for obvious reasons may be

bureau knows what part of the apple
crop is marketed and what utilixecbouA.

Millions of barrels go into the pro-
duction of cider, vinegar, jellies and
preserves. Other millions 70 to the
