INSURANCE SWINDLE
Alleged Perpetrator to Be Brought
Back to Pittsburg.

Pittsburg, Pa, Sept, 5.-Detective G.
G. Rice will leave today for New York
to bring back Arthur G. Marshall, who,
as president of the North American.
Duquesne and Lafayette fire insurance
companies, is alleged to have worked
one of the biggest insurance swindles
in years. Marshall is thought to have
secured $4,000 with his bogus concerns,
as over $2,000,000 of insurance was
written by Marshall's agents. The To-
cal police have engaged Attorney Hen
ry C. Fay of 1876 Broadway to look out
for their interests in case Marshall puts
up a fight.

Friday morning, at the home OF Mr.. and
Mrs. Herman Rowell OF Leavitt street
where she had been living for the pasl
three months. The members Of the
household were at breakfast and Miss
Moore left the table to step to the cellar
way for something which was wanted
for the table. She missed her footing il
some way and was found a moment later
at the bottom Of the stairs. Both wrists
were broken and severe wounds Inflicted
upon the head, indicating that sht

What Portland Business Men Are
Doing In Mount Hood.

The prosperity of any community
depends largely upon the men that
form part of that community.
One of the first of Portland's bus j.
ness men to take an active interest
in the affairs of Mount Hood was Mr..
&. G. Ruff, who owns a grocery store
at 443 9th street. Mr.. Ruff purchased
what is known as the Fouts place two
years ago, and has since then steadily
improved it, and now has about 40
acres cleared. OF these 40 acres, 10
acres are now in apples, half of which
are in full bearing. Last year Mr..
Ruf's apples netted him good round
sum and this year he will have about
400 boxes. He ha only two acres Of
Strawberries and these netted him an
average of S2.0 IL a crate. Mr.. Ruff
will plant l5 acres of NewtOwn and
Spitzeu berg apples in the spring and
will continue to clear his land until
he has 80 acres in orchard.
London & Powers, who purchased
the Mason place, are clearing their
place at a rapid rate The old orchard
on this place, of which there is only
an acre and half is more heavily
loaded with apples than any orchard
along the road from Hood River to
Cloud Cap Inn. This orchard also
has the highest elevation of any bear.
ing orchard in the Mount Hood dis
t1ict, and the one thing to be noticed
in particular is that it was not hurt
with the fro this year. They plant
ed five acres in orchard last spring
and they have the ground ready now
upon which to plant 10 acres more
next spring. They are enclosing this
with an eight wire circular fence, the
posts al by 6 ..inches in diameter
have been sawed at the mill and treat
ed with carbolineum to prevent decay,
after which they were painted. Lon.

RUSHING ROAD
TO COMPLETION

All right of way matters for the
Mount Hood Railroad have been
Strengthened up out of court. Con
tractors Geibisch Il Joplin have a
force of 40 men driving piling aroun d
the Winans point, and If the truss
bridge spanning the river is compl ct.
ed by December |, rail laying will be-
gin then, the weather permitting.
1T is very proper | think that any
information concerning the road
should be given you by President
Eccles," remarked Mr.. Early to a
Glacier reporter who called at the
office of the railroad company Tues
day morning." but as Mr.. Eccles
promised to make a statement today,
and was UNEXPECTEDLY called East, he
has authorized me to act.
Briefly, | will say, that right of
way matters are practically all closed
and all work in connection with the
road progressing nicely. Good weather
is what we want now. Material, with
the exception of a couple of cars of
iron for the Howe truss bridge across
Hood River, is on the ground for the
construction of the road to where ii
intersects the grade on the East Side
of Hood River. Once there, the worst
is over.
"All that it is possible to do to
hasten the day when the road will
be in operation, will be done. Mr..
Eccles purchased some time ago. one
Shay and two Baldwin locomotives,
which are at hand now. The Shay,
twenty-ton engine, will be used
perhaps in construction work, and
then pl Ced on logging roads exclu-
sively. The other engines, with empty
tenders, weigh 132,00O pounds each,
and are for use on main line.
"Freight and passenger business we
can assure you will be very carefully
looked after. 1t will be the purpose
of our company to build up the town
of Hood River as well as to further
the interests of the valley. We want
to see every acre of available land
producing the big red apple or what
ever other product it is hest adapted
to.
"The mill of the Oregon Lumber
Company will be moved later on to a
new site on road. We have under
construction at this time new mill
somewhat larger than the one here,
capacity of which will he mater ally
greater. Mr.. Eccles has given this
new mill proposition very careful at
tention and promises that it will be
ore of the best.
Extension of the road into Mount
Hood country? Please pass tina until
we have our present road finished.
They certainly have territory that
will give a good account of itself
later-in fact it is doing it today.
| would only say in this connection
that the very friendly spirit they
have shown us at all times is certain
ly appreciated.

SELL 100000
BONDS AT PAR

Farmers Irrigation district bonds
to the amount of $50, 600 were sold at
par last Wednesday afternoon to the
Trowbridge 4 Niver Co. of Chicago.
On Saturday contracts were let to
Giebisch 4 Joplin to the amount of
S32, 900 for the excavation of y miles
Of ditching. Construction work will
begin at once, and the board of di-
Tectors expect to have water ont from
Dead Point for next season S use.
This new ditch will bring out sever
al thousand inches Of water that will

upper part of the west side of the
valley, aud be the means of making
the land produce thousands of dollars
where it now turns off but a few hnd-
red.
The contract given Geibicsh 4 Jop-
lin includes in addition to the II
miles of ditch work the slashing of 3S
acres of ground. 1t is the intention
to lave the ground cleared of Erush
feet above the ditch, and feet below.
The main canal is to be completed to

Tie entire system will require about
5000 feet Of fluming, but between
Ditch creek and Dead Point there will
not be over 400 feet of tluming. A
large amount of this tlume work can
be completed after July |.
The directors estimate that it will
require the balance Of the $50, coo to
complete the entire system. Fred f..

for their new home in Hood River,
we're agreeably surprised last Thurs
day NOR ing, about 10 O'Clock, when
the good people Of Pine Flat came
trooping into their home until there
was hardly room for more.
The visitors had with them the
many good things which the fair sex
are capable of preparing for an old
fashioned dinner. In few hours din
ner was announced, and a most ex-
cellent dinner it was. One could not
wish for better.
After relieving the table of large
portion of its contents, the party re-
tired to the sitting room for social
hour. The men folks discussed the
best varieties of fruit for a paying
orchard, and the best method of cul-
tivation, etc, until late hour, when
the visitors departed, regletti"g to
give up Mr.. and Mrs. Smith, but

don 4 Powers also own so acres Of the
II. W. Wait homestead. Five acres
Of this tract is in orchard.
The Elppa Orchard Co. are Port
land men who are doing much to i'm
prove the upper country. They have
about 20 acres cleared and the most
of it set to orchard, and are clearing
more land.
Mr.. Gray, who bought the Rich
mond place this summer, is making
many improvements, having his
brother in charge of the place, and
is doing considerable clearing, which
will be set out to orchard in the
spring. He had some very fine melons
and cSrn this year, in addition to ap-
pies and other fruit.
Miss Lessie Farmer bought 40
acres Of the Hucksbay place recently
and will improve it next spring.
F. W. Lutkemeire is improving his
homestead south of China Hill.

Portland man, might be a" ded to the
list of Willamette valley people who
are becoming interested in the Mount
Hood country and bringing in capital
to improve it. Mr.. HARRISON bought
part of the Robert Mckinney place,
and intends to i'm rove it next year.

Money in Buerre d'AnjOu Pears.

That there is money In an orchard
of Buerre d'Anjou pears in Hood
River is evidenced by Il. Locke, who
received $500. 25 for the product of 30
trees, the fruit of which was market
ed in New York last month.
A. C. Staten received check for
S97. so for the fruit from 4 Beurre
d'Anjou pear trees. Mr.. Locke's or
chard of Beurre d'Anjous is the only
commercial pear orchard of this va
riety in the valley but he has demon
strated that this variety does well
here, and other farmers will doubtless
be setting more extensively to pears
in the next few years.
