FUM|GAT|ON WAS
BAD FOR FRUITS
The RiIonian's Cold STORAGE
Supplies Damaged by
Fumes.

There has been good deal of COM
plant heard among the merchants of
the city relative to the manner in which
the fumigation of the Hilonian was
conducted. 1t is stated that almost
all the fruit, fresh meats and other
perishable goods which were brought
down in the Hilonian were destroyed,
or damaged to such an extent that
they were rendered useless for the mar
ket.
The apples which came down on the
Hilonian were completely spoiled, be-
ing cooked to such an extent that they
We're soft as mush for three-quarters of
an inch from the surface and were rem
dered absolutely worthless. The chic
kens, crabs and other cold storage
goods of this description were also
spoiled and could not be placed on
the market.
The loss of these goods has been
felt more severely by the local men
on account of the fact that they were
badly needed for use in the city at the
present time while the Big Four
squadron is here. The apples which
came down on the HiIonian were the
very finest of that could be found and
had been specially selected for ship
ment.
The markets of the city are at pres
ent in trouble on account of the fact
that they have been unable to supply
the demand for a number of articles
of food which are in general demand.
There are hardly any potatoes left in
the city and as for eggs, the supply
can nowhere near come up to the de-
mand. Large shipments of both eggs
and potatoes are expected on the Ne
vadan, which is due this week and
viii relieve the famine which exists
at present.

addition to the lace blouse Of more
ordinary detail, Of braces of ribbon,
short wide sleeves OF ribbon. and q
belt with sash ends OF ribbon. Such
ribbon could be chine with a satin

Washington just nov. All the
opponents Of the administration
are saying, "Oh yes. another
member elected to the Ananias
Club. But there is more 10 it
than that. It is unfortunate Of
course that the President should
be involved in a controversy Of
veracity with a man of Mr.. Har-
riman sort. The President is
blunt to the point of brusqueness
very often, and is apt to speak
his mind plainly when be has
been misquoted or misunder-
stood. And it is just this habit
that the railroad interests have
relied on in stirring up the pres
/ ent discussion. If they could
discredit the President before
the public just now it would be
one of the most welcome vic
tories they could win, and the
story of the Hartman campaign
contribution has been sprung
with no other OBJECT Mr.. Harri-
man says that he was called to
Washington by the President
and asked to help raise money
for the campaign of 1904 The
. President says he did no such
thing. Now if the President had
asked for railroad money to help
run the national campaign, it is
not likely he would have been as
severe on the railroads as he has
been, even though his severity
has gone only 10 the extent of de-
claring they must act honestly.

AS TO the specific claim that he
contributed $50, TO the Repub-
. lican campaign fund in 1904, he
may or may not have done so
: quite without the knowledge of
the President. Bat il he did do
so, the cancelled check with
which the contribution was made
would be q good deal more con.
vncing evidence than anything
else he could offer. HIS state
ment that his letter TO Sioney
Webster IN which the original
charge Is made, was published
without bis knowledge or con

aud now would De a very good

evidence. The fact that this
charge was sprung just when

made by the railroads to disere.

railroad policy is something more
than a coincidence.

the Hartman charge Is only q
