NO EQUIPMENT
IS REMOVED
CONSTRUCTION ENGINEERS FOL-
LOW CREWS INTo PORTLAND,
BUT ALL EQUIPMENT IS LEFT
IN CHARGE OF WATCHMEN.

A message received from Riparia
today states that all men who have
been employed in the construction of
the Lewiston-Liparia line have been
withdrawn. Engineer Perkins, who
has been in charge of the track con-
struction, abandoned his quarters at
Almota Wednesday, and at the pres
ent time only watchmen over the
equipment at Riparia are main
tanned.
The fact that all equipment has
been left on the works instead of be-
ing assembled at headquarters in
Portland is regarded at Riparia as
indicative that a resumption of oper-
rations is expected and especially so
since the extension of the Hartman
road from Pendleton to Pilot Rock
has been authorized under the super
vision of the division officials.
The road from Riparia to Lewis
ton is practically completed, all of
the track being in place and the
greater amount of the ballasting
work being completed All of the
steel is on the ground for the con-
struction of the Clearwater bridge,
rand the first span installed. The ex-
pense of completing the road pre-
paratory to turning it over to the
operating department is estimated
by railroad men to be less than the
cost incurred by stopping operations
at this time, and in view of th%Se
conditions it is generally believed
the order will soon come for the
men to be returned to work and the
road completed.

The sentence is said to be the

dynamite had been secured and the

Value OF IDAHO
FRUIT LANDS
WILLIAM MOHL SHOWS EXCEL
LENT RESULTS FROM HIS
4-YEAR-OLD TREES, GROWN
NEAR CLIFFORD.

The refusal yesterday of $4,000
by William Mohl, the well-known
Rosetta fruit grower, for tract pA
40 acres that he purchased four
he has expended not to exceed $400
in improvements in the way OF
buildings and $500 for fruit trees,
tells a story of the possibilities Oh
the development of the fruit induss
try where an intelligent selection on
varieties and persistent work are
combined in the making of an or
chard.
The orchard consists of five acres
of pears, 33 acres Of apples and two
and half acres of cherries. Tha.
trees are now four years old and the
sale of apples alone will make neu|
profit of at least 10 per cent upons
an investment of $4,000. The apple
crop for this year amounted to 70OB
boxes of first-grade product and
500 boxes that were sold as seconds.
The varieties of apples cultivated
are the Rome Beauties and Jonaa|
thans. Mr.. Mohl estimates his appla
crop next year should be about 5000
boxes of first-class apples.
During the years the orchard has
been growing to the bearing condi1
/ tion Mr.. Mohl has cultivated the land
between the trees and has secured al
sufficient revenue from these -orod
ucts to bear all of the expenses of the
care of the orchard
The apple industry is in it's ind
fancy" said Mr.. Mohl today. "Witn
in a short time thousands of acreiI
will be devoted to the cultivation Oh
this fruit. and within the next Id
years Lewiston should be as widely
known for the production of find
winter apples as the famed Hood
river district.
ut was formerly believed that ap
pies could not be profitably cuItl|
waited in the low districts, where tl1N
San Jose scale was bad, but the vic
tory won by the growers at We
netchee and at Hood River ha
taught us it is a matter Of care AM
cultivation"
Mr.. Mohl has for six years bee
deputy fruit inspector, and while tl1
compensation for this work has bee
comparatively small after all Ell
penses have been paid, he feels thu
the knowledge gained by associatid
with fruit. men and the inspectio
of the various fruit localities ha
been worth many times the mono
paid by the state.

SANTA FE fine
MADE 100000
RAILROAD GRANTED REBATES
IN VIOLATION OF LAW AND
GETS MANY THOUSANDS IN
PENALTY.

LOS ANGELES, Nov. S.-Judge
Olin Welborn in the United States
district court yesterday fined the
Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe rail-
road $4,000 for rebating. The
fine was what the court denominated
IAN intermediate penalty" as the
maximum which might have been
assessed was $1,32O,0OO and the
minimum 100000. The court re-
viewed the case in a written opinion
of some length in which it stated
there were sufficient doubtful and
extenuating circumstances to pre-
clude the possibility of a maximum
sentence and yet sufficient intention
of wrongdoing shown to make i'm
possible minimum penalty.
The Santa Fe company was con-
victed on October IL last by a jury
in the federal court of granting re-
bates to the Grand Canon Line and
/ Cement company of Arizona. 1t was
found guilty of all of the sc counts
charged in the Indictment after but
an hour deliberation. The rebates
which were given on shipments of
lime and cement from Nelson, Ariz.,
to Los Angeles, ranged in amounts
from 35 cents to SIS. The company
claimed that these amounts were not
regular rebates on the freight rate,
but were in the form of damage to
goods shipped, which were allowed
after such claims had been regularly
! presented and proved in each in
stance. The court did not take that
view of the case, however, and stat
ed that sit was not convinced by
any means that these amounts rep
F! resented a bona fide settlement of
claims"
ut is hard to believe" the court
said in its opinion, "that the agents
of the corporation did not know
that they were violating the law, In
any event, such ignorance of the law
is almost equivalent to a criminal
knowledge of it."
