Apple Market Closed

The apple market closed Tuesday at
Coliax, when Zell NJ Beebe, who has
been packing and shipping for Ryan &
Newton, Spokane commission men, re-
ceived orders to stop buying. Such lots
as had been bought up to that time will
be received for a few days, however.
Buyers report the market weakening at
the east and their western agents have
been generally recalled by wire. Mr..
Beebe will have shipped, when the sea-
son is closed, about % cars of choice fall
and winter apples, the latter predomin-
ating. For first year with a packing
house here this is a very creditabe
record. Other PalOuse country towns
have made larger shipments, for the
reason that they have encouraged the
trade previous to this year. If insects
and orchard pests can be controlled, the
Palouse country will, within a very few
years, become great apple center, as
it's fame is already becoming widely
known and the trade is fast expanding.

Robbed His Friend

Geo. Samuelson, a youth OF 90, stole
$35 from the pockets of his friend and
room mate, A. H. Swordes, at a Pull
man lodging house Monday night Of last
week, but was captured by Marshal
Holt and held to the superior court by
Justice Swain in $500 bonds, in lieu OF
which he occupies quarters at the coun-
ty Jail. He wanted to plead guilty, but
the prosecuting attorney was of the
opinion that he did not know what he
was doing, to thus plead himself into
the penitenriary on a grand larceny
charge, and the plea was not received.
1t is probable he will be permitted to
plead guilty OF petty larceny and given
a Jail sentence. He threw the money
away when chased by the Pullman Of
ficer and it cannot be found.

A NEGLECTED REMEDY.
One Way To Reduce the Freight
Charges We Pay.

The Spokane Chronicle speaks what
many people call fairly good sense, when
it tells of the imports into this coun-
try thusly. OF course, it does not ap-
ply to exports:
Some fenr is expressed lest the latest Bur-
lingtOn Northern Pacific Great Northern
combination may result in higher freight
rates Tor the northwest. Possibly it will.
There is suspicion, however. that under
the old friendly agreement the rail-
ways are already charging about all
they think the traffic will bear. Railway
competition in this part of the country
during the last few years has been about
as fierce as sham battle in a comic
opera; and there is reason to suspect
that the chief objection to raising rates
has been that it wasn't safe to try to
squeeze any more out OF the dear, easy
public, anyway.
However this may be, the people of
the entire northwest are neglecting one
remedy, and that the best remedy, for
high freight rates. This remedy is the
proper encouragement of the little fac
tories which are making goods right at
our doors and do not need to add freight
charges to the purchase price. True,
resolutions are passed sometimes, and
everybody wishes all kinds of good luck
to the manufacturer; but how many
merchants keep before their customers
list OF homemade goods? How many
hOusekeepers ask for them? How many
business men make any systematic effort
to spend their money at home, so they
will have a chance to get hold of it
again.
So long as we persist in shipping in
our soap, our brooms, our canned goods,
and hundred other articles that can
be and are made here, can we really
blame the railways for squeezing us on
freight rates?

OREGON BADLY CRIPPLED.
BattleshiD Was Much Injured on q
China Rock

Seattle, Nov. 16.-The naval officers OF
the Puget sound naval station who have
charge of the work of repairing the
United States battleship Oregon have
discovered since they began the work
that it is task much greater than they
had at first anticipated. The in Jury
done to the Oregon, and from which the
vessel is now undergoing repairs, was
received by striking an uncbarted rock
in the China sea in June of last year.
The vessel was fast on the rock for
seven days, rising and falling with the
tide, and it is due to the fairest weather
and the greatest good fortune that she
was ever Heated. AS it was she suffered,
being pierced by the rocks in two places,
letting the water in two compartments
amidship. By closing up the openings
leading into the other compartments the
crew succeeded in keeping the vessel from
being total wreck. She was taken to
Nagasaki, Japan, where a temporary
patch some 60 feet wide and 20 feet long
ives put on her to enable her to be
brought home. Prior to the begin
ming of the work of repairing her it was
thought that it would only be necessary
to remove few plates and frames from
her hull and straighten and replace
them. But since the work was begun it
has been found that the damage is vastly
more extensive than was anticipated.
1t will be necessary to remove over
5000 square feet OF plates from the ships
bottom; to take out three sections, or
12O feet, of her keel, more than one-third
of the entire keel of the ship: to remove
four bulkheads and a large number of
the heavy frames. In all over 900 tons
OfirOn and steel will be removed, straight
ened and replaced.
To render this task infinitely more diff
ticult, a portion of the work is to be
done directly under the forward turret,
on which are mounted four of the 49,
inch guns. This turret weighs over 900
tons, and the task of bracing the vessel
to retain exactly without the slightest
variation the relative position of the
parts not taken off is one requiring the
most exact and careful management. AS
the work is to be done from the bottom,
it was necessary to lift the vessel from
her keel blocks and stand it on braces
placed along her sides. This stupendous
task was completed this week 1t neces-
STATED the use of hundreds of heavy
timbers 12x12 inches and extending from
the bottom of the drydock to piece of
iron riveted to the side of the ship about
three feet below the water line.
There are now 400 men at work on
the vessel. The force will be increased
on the first of next month and possibly
more than doubled before the work is
done, which cannot be for several months.

STOLE HIS SUPPLIES.
MIR. Mastin Found Everything Gone
From Cold Center.

From GOIu CENTER.
Councilman W. FL. Mastin returned
Friday from a trip to his Gold Center
placer claims, on branch of st. Maries
river. He found his town burned from a
forest fire set to the south, and is of the
opinion that his stock of eatables, black
smith tools, etc, to the amount of $1,000
or ST 400, we're stolen and an incendiary
fire started to conceal the theft. The
locks on his cabin have been smashed
three times. Last year everything he
had was stolen except his floor, even to
fry-pans, skillets and stoves.
Mr. Mastin believes he knows the
guilty parties and thinks he can trace
all his lost articles up and down the st.
Maries river.
