Washington Notes

Secretary Root has approved the elaborate plans prepared by the Engi- neer Corps for the war college build ings at Washington and at Fort Ri'ey, Kan. The department will proceed at once to advertise for bids.
 Postmaster-General Payne has ad- dressed circular letter to the officers and employees of the postofiice depart- ment and others concerned regarding the extent of the prohibition put by the department on political activity on the part of postofiice employees. The letter says: "Postmasters or others having unclassified positions are mere- ly prohibited from using their offices to control political movements, from neglecting their duties, or causing public scandal by political activity. A person in the classified service has an entire right to vote as he pleases, and to express privately his opinion on all political subjects, but he should take no active part in political man. agement or in political campaigns.

Filthy Quarters

Just as long as a man ovecrowds his
 fowls he will be toubled with losing them and also with various diseases, not only from crowding, but from con- tagion. If diseases that some fowls become victims to are allowed to get into large flock there will be greater loss than if the birds were not crowded. There is not one domesticated animal that can thrive when crowded in with a lot of others and fed on poor food. They may seem to do well for time, but fowls that are kept in confinement, will hardly compare with those having free range and good care. There are many other causes of disease beside want of care and confinement, but there is not any that is worse than confne- ment, close quarters and filth. Filth is sure to result where fowls are pack ed in as closely as possible. More disease arises from filth than from any other cause. - Otsego Farmer.

Fearful Mine Explosion

A special from Black Diamond, Wash, to the Seattle Post Intelli- gencer says: Eleven men were killed and three injured in mine explosion on the fouth level at the Lawson mine, a mile from that place, about o'clock Thursday night.
 The men employed in the working or chutes were instantly killed. Two gangwaymen and driver working farther in the level or gangway, evil dently escaped the effect of the explo- sion and instinctively started toward the stope for safety. The deadly after damp swept down on them and they ,succumbed after not more than few minutes struggle against the fate their experience as minersEtold them lay in store for them.
 Only the bodies of the men in the working were burned, showing that the sheet of flame which followed the explosion did not extend to the stope. though it is declared by some watch CTS to have been seen from the air shafts. Those miners whose bodies were burned were discovered lying in cramped positions, their legs closely drawn up to their bodies and their hands clinched. Dust covered their faces so they were unrecognizable when first taken from the mine. Their clothes were torn and thickly coated by coal dust. The other bodies were not disfgured. Number level in the Lawson mine has not been opened long.

broken at both Mondays and Wednes- days sales. Of course, Chapman's Old Mission Valencias led the record of the smashing procession. Seven boxes realized $l4 each, and fourteen boxes realized $l3.S71a each. The car brought gross, the enormous sum of $2450.0, about $225 more than the car brought gross the proceeding week, when $l0 n box was reached. In this car were 6l boxes of "fancy," 23S of "choice, |" and S5 of standard" grades. The highest prices were paid by Hicks, the we'll known fruiterer of Broadway and Twenty-eight street. The other record sale was Monday, when a car of Emer- aid brand Valencias from the Spruance Fruit Company of Covina was sold by the. w sstfall Fruit Company. One box realized $l0.50, and thirteen boxes $l0 each. Steinhardt & Kelly secured the highest priced oranges. The "extra fancy" fruit, seventeen boxes, large and regular sizes, averaged $9.6O per box; "fancy," excluding small sizes; {; in all forty-fve boxes, average $6.95 per box. This week some more iecord- breaking undoubtedly will take place. Old Missions will be offered, and as this fruit is much sought after, fancy fruiterers will come prepared to pay high for it.
 Auction sales of Pacific Coast fruit last week were practically the same as the proceeding week, sixty-eight cars being disposed of, while during the corresponding period last season eigthy- nine cars were sold. While there has been a wide range of prices, more especially on Bartletts and Tokays, the general tonelhas been firm, with tops on those varieties higher than the pre- vious week.

Trouble has been brewing there for some time, originating two weeks ago in fight with railroad graders, of whom the Denver, Enid and Gulf company has 600 in that vicinity. The Browns are reported to have taken sides with the railroads, thus engendering a feud be- tween them and the officers.

APACHES ACT UGLY
Settlers on Ft. McDowell Reservation
 Fear Uprising

For some time past settlers on the abandoned Fort McDowell military reservation have been uneasy regard ing;the conduct of Apache Indians who have left the reservation a few at a time for months and have been rendez- vousing in that vicinity. They claim to be peaceabe and say that they were formerly promised they could have res- ervatiop lands, but they have no crops or other support save basket-weaving, and when short of resources forage on the farms of settlers and when taken to task are abusive and threatening. The settlers fearing that someone in anger on one side or the other may commit an act ending in an uprising, are arming themselves, and have ar ranged signals for assembling at once in. case of emergency. The matter has been brought to the attention ot the Indian Office, but conflicting statements made by Indian sympathizers have retarded action.

BANKS ARE FLOURISHING
Report of the Commissioners Shows a
 Big Increase of Deposits

The report from the bank commits sioners submitted to Governor Gage shows that the 321 banks of this state have increased their deposits during the past year by the enormous sum of $55, 405. 95l.2S. The amounts are thus segregated: Nine San Francisco sav- ings banks, $10, ,254, ,973.S9; ffty-two interior savings banks, $6,725, ,435. 2S 1; nineteen San Francisco commercial banks, $l3, ,307, Al. .61; one hundred and seventy-two interior commercial banks $14 ,392 ,946.74; twenty private banks, $96, 7SS. 94; forty-nine national banks, $l0, ,62S, ,331.97.
 The commissioners say: "We recom- mend that the law which places bank which has been declared to be insolvent back into the hands of the directors (who permitted it to become insoivent) for the purpose of winding up its affairs during the process ot liquidation was, and is an abortion upon law and gross injury to the creditors and depositors of such insti- tuition. A receiver should be appoint ed by the court and to report to the court and be responsible to the court, his compensation to be fixed from time to time by the board of bank commits sioners."
 The commissioners further recom- mend, if there is no constitutional in- hibition, that all private banks be placed under the control of the bank commission, subject to the same rules and regulations as are imposed on in- corporate banks. An appropriation to defray the expenses of publishing it's reports is asked for by the commission.
