II 8 CROP SHORT.
BUT NO INDICATIONS AT PRESENT OF
HIGHER PRICES.
Oregon Crop This Year VIII be About l2S
Carloads Less Than Last Year, but the
Quality Is Very 0oOd-Fruit Crop In
California Is Good, Which VIII Affect
Price In the Northwest.

The prune crop Of the Northwest will
not be up to the usual mark this year.
Though the acreage islarger, the yield
will fall considerably below that of last
year. In 1901 shipments to the East
from the Northwestern statee amounted
to between 700 and 500 cars. This
year shipments will be between 100
and 150 cars short. On the other
Land, prunes will be larger, the favor
able weather of the spring and summer
having caused a material increase in
the size of the fruit. This will be good
for the growers, ss it costs no more to
dry prunes weighing so to 20 pounds
than it does those weighing 80 or 40
pounds, and the increase in weight
means a corresponding increase in the
selling price.
From all this, however, holders of
prunes need not think they are going to
find profit. There seems to be a gene
raj impression about the country that
prices will be as good as last year, but
the indications do not point that way.
Growers must not overlook the present
situation in California. In the Santa
Clara valley, for Eastern shipment,
packers are quoting "a cents for the
four sizes, which is u cent less than
last year. The prune crop is large
there, but not alone are prunes plenti-
ful-all other fruit is in abundance.
In the East it is the same story. The
apple crop there, which is large, is a
strong factor in the price situation.
When dried apples are cheap people
are as apt to buy them as they are to
purchase prunes. The European crop
is short, but Europe draws on this
country for fruit to only limited ex-
tent. Europe being an early buyer,
has placed most of its orders, and its
wants may be said to be practically
filled.
There is only limited demand for
the Oregon crop for early delivery,
according to Portland dealers, and as
soon as that want is supplied, what
stock remains On hand is apt TO drag,
or, to move it, lower prices must be
made.
The prune crop in Eastern Washing
ton and Idaho will be large this year.
Clark county. it is reported, will not
have over half as many as last season.
Paul Mason, California fruit man,
who lately returned from Europe, says
this years prune crop in France was
ruined early in the season by unfavor-
able weather and later by severe hail
storms.
81 questioned great many Of the
orchardists closely about the prices they
had received for their fruit" he said.
"From this source of information /
learned that for 10 years past the
French growers had received an aver
age price of cents per pound for their
fruit. This price seemed so extrava-
CANT that | asked them if they would
be willing to contract their fruit al
that price for the ensuing 10 years.
They replied that they would not. l
talked prunes all over France, and met
many of the large dealers. l found the
conditions described to apply generally
to that Country."

HELP TO FIGHT FIRE.
Governors of Wyoming and Colorado Ap-
peal to 0Overnmeut for Assistance,

Governors of Wyoming and Colorado Ap-
peal to 0Overnment for Assistance,
Washington, Sept. IS. - Secretary
Hitchcock today received dispatches
from the governors Of Colorado and
Wyoming appealing for government
assistance in fighting terrific forest
fire that is raging on government tim
Der lands along the Colorado Wyoming
boundary line, near the southeast cor
ner of Carbon county, Wyoming. The
secretary will give all aid possible, and
to that end at once ordered Supervisor
Atherly, of the Grow creek reservation,
to assist in fighting the fire reported
burning at Pearl, just south of the
Medicine Bow forest reserve. They
will employ large number of men to
assist in the work. This is the only
action the department can take. No
request with be made TO the war de.
partment for assistance.
A new forest fire that stretches over
a large area is reported in official
advices in the South Platte forest re-
serve, in Wyoming. Forest Supervis-
or Nicholson and large force Of men
are working to extinguish it. The
dispatches report that the fire near
Saratoga, Wyo., has been brought
under control.
In response to a request for information
on the situation in Washington, the
interior department this afternoon
received telegram from Superintend-
ent Shelter, in charge OF tie forest re-
serve tracts in Washington state, saying
that two fires we're raging over a large
area inside the Mount Rainier reserve.
The rangers have been fighting these
fires since their inception, and extra
help has been employed to battle
against the flames. The reports show
that the big fire near Enumclaw is
mostly on private lands, which in re-
cent years have been extensively lum-
bered. the mills being mostly located
at Tacoma and on the line of the
Northern Pacific.

VOLCANO AGAIN ACTIVE
SOuffriere's New Crater is Throwing Out
Volumes of Black Smoke.

Kingstown, st. Vincent, Sept. +6.-
An official at Chateau Belaire reports
that Souffriere's new crater, which has
been quiet hitherto, is today throwing
out black smoke. The old crater,
which in the correspondents opinion
did all the work since May z. and
which erupted September 8, is still
issuing white steam in dense clouds,
which can be seen from Kingston over
the northern mountains. The craters
and the Wallibon and Richmond dis
tricts could be seen yesterday.
The volcanic matter which fell at
Richmond and Walibon was finer than
that which fell at Chateau Belaire,
although the places are very near each
other.
There has been further subsidence
in Wallibon in four different places,
and the local opinion is that these sub
sidences on the coast line may account
for the sand-like substances elected
