TENNESSEE PEACH CROP DESTROYED


1
Louisville, KY, Feb. IA conserva-
tive estimate from Chattanooga, Tenn.
places the property loss from the I'M
precedented freeze In that section Of
the fruit belt at 100000. Chattanooga
for the first time In its history was
completely icebound. The effect on
full-grown peach trees and the 1905
yield has not yet been estimated, but
| If the crop Is killed 1t will mean a
heavy loss.
The sun shone in Shreveport, La,
yesterday for the first time In week
and 1t was the first day In that time
that the temperature registered above
the freezing point. The weather in
north Texas, however, shows no signs
of moderating. It has been ten days
since the temperature in Dallas was
higher than go and the minimum regis
tered Is degrees.
Beaumont, Tex, reports three days
of intermittent rain and sleet and a
siege of cold weather unparalleled in
years.
There Is heavy running ice in the
Arkansas river at Dardanelles and the
river Is frozen at Little Rock. 1t Is
believed the fruit in Arkansas was not
severely damaged.
The Ohio river is icebound from
Pittsburg to its mouth. In Louisville
dynamite was used to break gorge
which threatened damage to many
boats.
Specials from a large number of
points in west Texas indicate the pres
ent blizzard is the worst in ten years.
The whole northern portion OF the
state is covered with frozen sleet. Cat
tie are huddled in punches and cannot
be moved to water. Stockmen estimate
losses aggregating hundreds of thou
sands of dollars and that range cattle
will not recover in six months from
the damage done them so far. There
is no sign OF the blizzard abating.
New England Ports Blocked.
Boston, Feb. NEARLY all of the
smaller ports on the New England
coast between Passamaquoddy and
Narragansett bays are closed tightly
with ice, while the larger harbors, in
Guiding Boston, Portsmouth, Portland
and Providence, are filed with huge
floating cakes that impede and endan-
ger navigation. The southeast storm
and rising temperature that prevailed
during the day caused a temporary
lifting of the ice embargo at few of
the blockaded ports, but later the wind
changed to the northwest, a cold wave
approached and 1t was expected that
to-day will bring about conditions even
worse.

Statehood and Railroad Rate Bills
Up This Week.
DEMOCRATS NAY HAVE ASSISTANCE
Considerable Opposition Among Re-
pubIicanS to the Esch-TOwasend
Measure, which Has the Sep
pert Of President Roosevelt.

Washington, Feb. 6.-!The senate has
laid out an extended programme for
itself this week. To-day and Tuesday
will be given over almost entirely TO
the statehood bill. Wednesday the
senate will proceed to the hall OF the
house of representatives and assist In
canvassing the electoral vote. To-
day the statehood bill was displaced
temporarily in order to permit the
managers of the Swayne impeachment
trial to present the replication OF the
house Of representatives to Judge
Swanye's answer in the proceedings
against him. In accordance with the
unanimous agreement reached the
statehood bill and all amendments Of
fered to 1t will be voted on before ad-
journment on Tuesday The contest
over some Of the amendments TO the
bill will be sharp and may continue
the session into the night.
Railroad legislation is to have the
right-of-way in the house Of repre-
sentaives until Wednesday. The rule
making the bill giving the interstate
commerce commission power to fix
rates special order during sessions
which are to begin on hour earlier
than usual on Tuesday and Wednesday
was the subject Of lively debate to-
day. Opposition TO the bill which has
been agreed on by the republicans OF
the committee on interstate commerce
will be voiced in the debate on this
rule. This opposition may come from
the minority developed in the repub-
lican conference Friday, as well as
from the democrats of the house. II
the two should unite to defeat the
rule, those who have counted noses
say this could be accomplished. Should
the rule be adopted, as Is the belief Of
the majority leaders, there will be no
opportunity to amend the bill. The
democrats will be given an opportu-
nifty to show their strength on the
Davy bill, to be offered as a substitute
for the Esch- Townsend gill, when the
times comes to vote on that measure
at four o'clock Wednesday.

DEATH CAME AS A RELIEF.
President BecISwith, of the Defunct
OberIin' Bank, Was One of Mrs.
Cassie l.. ChadwicIx's Victims.

oberlin, O., Feb. &C. T. Beckwith,
president of the defunct Citizens ma
tional bank of this city, is dead after
two days of unconsciousness. Mr..
Beckwith was about IS years of age.
On December IA last the federal grand
jury in Cleveland returned five indict-
ments against Beckwith upon the
charge of violating the national bank
ing laws in connection with the loans
made to Mrs. Cassie L. Chadwick by
the Citizens national bank, Of Ober-
lin, Of which deceased was the presi-
dent. From the day of his arrest Mr..
Beckwith's health rapidly failed, as a
result of worry over his troubles. He
frequently declared during his illness
that he wanted to die. For several
days prior to his death he refused to
take food in any form. Death result
ed directly from heart trouble. The
death Of President Beckwith may ma
terially weaken the cases Of forgery
and conspiracy to misapply bank
funds, now charged against Mrs
Chadwick.

abandoned, again began shipping
about the same time. The Roslyn
mines, east of the Cascades, were
opened in the first half of the same
decade. The Bellingham Bay mines in
the first year of their recorded produc-
ton, 1860, shipped 1914 tons. In 1908,
Washington's output of coal was g.
1928 tons.
Decrease Is Shown.
Compared with 1903 the coal pro-
duction of Washington in 1904 SHOWS
a decrease of 55,592 short tons, or IL
per cent. The value of the product at
the mines fell off from $5,3SO,679 in
1903 to $5,120.931 in 1904, a loss of
$259, 749, or 4.8 per cent. This decrease
in production and the proportionately
larger decrease in value, were due
to the much increased use of fuel oil
in San Francisco and other California
cities, which form one of the principal
outlets for Washington coal.
There were only two cases of sus-
pension of work by strikes in the coal
mines Of Washington in 1904. In these
a total Of 369 men were idle for an
average of 365 days, the total time
lost being equivalent to per cent.
OF the total time worked, and not suf-
ficient to effect the production of the
year.
Men Employed.
The number of men employed in the
coal mines of Washington increased
from 4,76S in 1903 to 5,2S7 in 1904,
while the average number Of days
worked decreased from 285 to 243. Ow-
ing to the large number of men en-
ployed in 1904, the average productive
capacity per man for the year shows
decrease from go tons in 1903 to
1895 tons in 1904, while due to the
fewer number of days worked, the av-
erage daily efficiency shows an in
crease from 2.35 tons per man in 1903
to 2.44 tons in 1904.
"Of the total number of coal mines
in Washington, there were seven
mines, employing 10 men, that re-
ported eight hours as the length of
the working day, seventeen mines, en-
ploying 4,042 men, reported eight hours
for miners and either nine and one
nalf or ten hours for day men; four
mines. employing 70 men, reported
nine hours, and six mines, employing
757 men, reported ten hours.
"Out of the total production of 81
1851 tons of coal in Washington in
1904, 1,21O,23O tons came from King
county, 1,34O,40O tons came from Kit
titas and 531,5S9 from Pierce. The re-
naming 46,462 tons were scattered
over the state.'

Mason City Times Herald.J
1T isn't an altogether good plan to
have old and unromantic men on the
police force, for such are too apt to be
out of sympathy with the great palpi-
tating heart of the public. They weigh
sentiment on live stock scales, and for
get to note that the beam doesn't ball
ance.
Take, for instance, the recent ad-
monition of the young man of a near
by city from the chief of police:
when girl waves her hand at you,
don't wave 1t back-just go on about
your own business and then you won't
get into trouble"
Think Of Young America going on
about his business" when pretty girl
is waving her hand at him!
But, of course. he'll go about his bus
iness-which business, as every man
who has ever been young we'll knows is
to wave not only one. but both hands
in reply, together with his hat. his
coat, his shoes, and anything else
which chances to be conveniently near.
Go along about his business?
Why, certainly, sir-with pleasure,
sir!
For when a girl in white dress,
with whittier shoes and whitest stock
ings with sleeves tucked away beneath
a dainty elbow and ribbons peeping
from her hair-when such a vision
waves her hand at a young man he has
but one business. and that is to get iri-
to trouble as speedy as possible.
He that is heartless still-let him
give orders, and enforce ordinances.
and make proclanlations-let him say
that black shall be white, and white
shall be red, and youth shall not be
green.
But don't ever for one moment be IN
doubt as to what will happen.
Therell still be waving and giving in
waving.
