Washington Notes

Ulyses s. Glover has been appoint ed postmaster at Irwindale, Los An geles county.
 Special Agent Loomis of the General Land Office telegraphed from Oregon City, Dr., that the forest fires in the Vancover, Wash., region, are now under control, and that very little, if any, timber, on government land in that section is involved in the conf1a- grafton.
 The United States Supreme Court will reassemble October 13. Among the first cases to be heard are those of Bird against the United States, brought to determine the legality of murder trials in Alaska, and the prize-money cases of the United States against Ad- mirals Dewey and Sampson.
 United States Consul Bragg at Havana cabled the State Department confirmation of the press reports of the accid lent to the big floating steel dry dock there, which was recently pur- chased by the United States from Spain.

DE MONIES LAUNCHED
Latest Addition to Navy Glides Into
 Water of Massachusetts Bay

The cruiser Des Moines was launch ed from the yards of the Fore River Ship and Engine Company at Quincy, Mass, shortly after noon Saturday. Thousands of people saw the ship plunge into the water, and for some time afterward -the;r cheers echoed along the river banks. Miss Elsie Macomber of Des Moines, with Gov. Cummings of Iowa, ,and Mayor Brenton of Des Moines standing Lby her side, smashed the traditional bottle of cham pagne against .the steel prov of the cruiser.
 The Des Moines is the largest vessel ever lanched in the water of Massa- chusetts bay. Although the weather was threatening the day was practically for Quincy holiday and the attend ance of large company of distinguish ed guests, including delegation from Iowa, many government officers, na- tional, State and city dignitaries and foreign naval attaches, made the occa- sion notable one.

California Fruit in the East

Auction sales of Pacific Coast de- ciduous fruit in New York last week amounted to ninety cars, or seventeen cars more .than the preceding week, but practically the same as during the corresponding week of last season. A great deal of fruit was in poor con- dition, more especially in pears and plums, some lots badly cooked selling at very low prices. The market as a whole showed tendency to sag until Friday, wet and unfavorable weather having bad effect on sales, but on the day mentioned prices steadied on Bartletts, Tokays and Italian prunes. Under rather free offerings this latter variety lad been declining steadily, reaching so cents on Thursday, but closing ta 90 cents to $l as compared with $l.30 last Friday. At the lower figures there should be an increased demand and dealers look for steady market next week. The shipments from the Pacific Coast have been de- creasing and prospects are more favor able than they have been.
 In citrus fruit fourteen cars of Val encia lates were solo, ,as compared with nine cars the preceding week and seven cars the same week last season. While some low prices were realized on green, coarse and wasty fruit, bright, smooth fruit held steady and some very high prices were realized on extra fancy lots. The lemon situa- tion is improving daily, and fancy bright fruit should soon command very satisfactory prices.

Agricultural Educators Wanted

The San Francisco Rural Press per tinently comments thus on "anoth CT significant tribute to the value of American aricultural education:'
 "It is Hound ill the fact that foreign institution described as 'col- legiate institution of high standing in Great Britain is being reorganized and developed; with special reference to agricultural science and practice, and advertises in this country for the fol- lowing: l, A professor of agriculture; ?, professor of agricultural zoology; 3, lecturer on agricultural chemistry; 4, an organizer and instructor in poul- try keeping. It is stated that the salaries are liberal and none but first class men need apply.
 Granting eligibility to Americans for such positions involves recognition that the American directness and prac- ticality in agricultural education are desirable elements in agricultural progress. What is now recognized in the old country has already been acted upon in the British colonies, as in South Africa and in the various states of Canada and Australia, here Ameri- can instructors have been sosght for and are rendering signally satisfactory services"

the largest that the country has pro. duced in any year during the last ten, according to report made public at the State Department from Consul Heenan at Odessa, dated August 16. The wheat harvest is exceptionally large.

Grant, headquarters and six troops of the Ninth Cavalry 123 sick, eight insane, 1S7 casuals, and 55 dis charged soldiers. Gen. Grant has been assigned to command the Depart ment of Texas.
 The Naval General Board resumed it's sessions in Washington Tuesday. During the summer the board met at Newport and elsewhere, and it has pursued without interruption the pre- paiation of plans for the great combi- nation maneuver to take place in the West Indies during the winter. Ad- miral Dewey, president of the board, is intensely interested in these maIneu- vers. Another important task to be taken up by the general board is the preparation of scheme of naval construction.

5. P. Engine Blows Up

Too much pressure in the boiler caus. cd locomotive drawing heavy freight train to blow up Sunday morn. ing between Ravenna and Acton, on the Southern Pacific. The body of the engine was projected forward nearly hundred feet upon the track. Harry R. Swan, the fireman, was in- stantly killed, and the engineer, Will liam E. Love, was so terribly injured that he died two hours after the acci- dent occurred.
 Both men belonged in Los Angeles. Love who was about 3S years of age, left a widow and several children, residing at 1921 Beale street, and Swan, whose age was 24, lived with his young wife at 2715 Baldwin street, East Los Angeles. The bodies were sent in on a special train.
 The bodies of the railroad men were frightfully mangled. Both of Swan s legs were crushed and only re- mained to the rest of the body by shreds of skin. One leg was nearly off at the ankle the other at the knee. The top of his skull was mashed in. Loves right eye was destroyed, his nose and frontal bone crushed. Be- sides many other minor injuries. both unfortunates had been horribly scalded.
 The boiler of the machinery shot for ward about hundred feet and dropped almost squarely on the track, but the heavy ,,trucks of the .engine did not leave the iails. None of the cars were damaged in the least. The lifeless body of Fireman Swan was picked up nearly fifteen feet from the rails. En- gineer Love was found lying on the top of the tank of the tender. He died at II: :42 o'clock, just fifteen minutes after the arrival of doctor summoned from Lancaster. Although the wound ed man moaned good deal, he only spoke once, when he said: "Hold up my head" None of the others of the crew were hurt.
 The track was blockaded for about four hours, and the northbound passen- ger which left tie Arcade depot at 12 10 p. m. was delayed one hour and a half at the scene of the explosion.
