STORM RUINED HOP YARD.
Same 2O-Acre Yard Devastated Last
Year In Same Way.

The Dimmlck hop yard, in the
Selah, about three miles from the city
was blown down by the wind last
night and is a worse wreck than last
year when the same thing happened,
says the Yakima Republic.
This yard is reckoned the finest In
Yakima county and is 20 acres in ex-
tent. According to information re-
ceived here today the whole of the
yard has fallen in and great loss will
result. The yard is now owned by
Mr.. Stinsen, of Hill City, Mimi, and
is managed by Mr.. Kinney.
No other yard in that vicinity has
suffered in the same way and general
regret is expressed in the city that
this should have happened two years
in succession on a property so exten-
sive and productive.

RIFLES AND >GUNs LANDED.
Big Shipment Secretly Received at
Pinar del Rio.

Havana, Dec. 31.-The statement is
made here that several thousand rifles
ana machine guns reported to have
oeen landed recently in Pinar del Rio
province and hidden in the woods
near Mariel have been as secretly
taken away. The recent movement of
troops and police, which was consid-
cred mysterious in the light of Gov
ernor Magoon's statement that there
was no fear of a rising in Cuba, is
explained by this announcement, as it
Is now known that the movement was
IN the nature of a search for the arms.
The possibility of a clash between
Cubans and American troops is con-
sidered remote, as their relations are
good. The natives, however, are plot
ting against one another.
Just who is responsible for the
shipment Of the arms into Cuba is not
known. One theory is that the arms
were purchased by the former Lib
eral junta in New York aud shipped
too late to be used in the last move
ment. It is feared that the arms are
now in the possession Of the negroes
In the province.

INJUNCTION is ASKED
STATE OF MINNESOTA OPPOSES
INCREASE OF GREAT NORTH.
ERN CAPITAL STOCK.

st. Paul, Dec. 27.-Attorney General
e. T. Young has brought suit in the
Ramsey county district court against
the Great Northern Railway company
in which he seeks to restrain the CON-
pany from issuing the $60,000,000 of
stock which it was announced recent
ly would be issued on Jan. 4.
The complaint alleges that the Min
nesota laws require a railroad COM
pany to secure the permission of the
state railroad and warehouse commits
sion before increasing its capital stock.
This, it is alleged, has not been done
by the Great Northern, and the court
is asked to restrain the company from
issuing the stock until the consent of
the railway and warehouse commits
sion has been secured.
The attorney general, in his bill Of
complaint, after rec1ting the fact that
the Great Northern is corporation
of the state of Minnesota and that it's
original authorized capital stock was
$50, 100000, that being the limit fixed
by it's charter, says:
That between Feb. /, 1890, and
March /, 1906, the defendant made
several large increases of it's capital
stock until on March 1, 1906, its cap
ital stock aggregated substantially
$150,000,000. That all of these in
creases were first made without appli-
cation to and obtaining the consent Of
the railroad and warehouse commits
sion of the state of Minnesota as re-
Quired by law.
The complaint has been served on
the company. The attorney general
will make application to the court for
a temporary injunction covering these
points, which will be returnable and
come up for hearing some time be-
fore Jan. 4, when the distribution of
the stock is due to be made. II the
temporary Injunction is granted it will
hold up the distribution of the stock
until the final adjudication of the case.

APPEAL DIRECT TO FARMERS
Red Cross Asks Wheat and Corn for
Starving Chinese.

Red Cross Asks Wheat and Corn for
Starving Chinese.
Washington, Dec. 31.-The offer Of
e. H. Hartman to President Roosevelt
to transport on his steamship lines all
supplies delivered at San Francisco
and intended to relieve famine suffer-
ers in China has opened the way for
the American Red Cross to make an
appeal direct to the farmers of the
country to provide corn and wheat.
The appeal for money contributions
has been effective, but it is believed
the greater good would come from
gifts of grain now that the transporta-
ton question has been met.
Already the Red Cross officials in
this city have suggested to Governor
Cummins of Iowa that he ask the
farmers of that state to make grain
contributions. The call upon the gov
errors had not been made general for
the reason that the Red Cross officers
were waiting to see whether it would
be declared legal to use the army
transport service to convey grain to
the Orient.

WILHELM LEADS
 LOCAL SLABMEN
 IN GAMES WON

The record of the Baron pitcher Is given below.
 As is generally known Wilhelm is easily the leader. He has pitched thirty-three games. Of that number he landed twenty. When it Is remembered that the team here is second division outfit Wilhelm's record can be best appreciated.
 Clark is next, with a bunch of seven teen victories against eighteen defeats. Clark has still an opportunity to make an even break. or .60o. This record, too, with second division club, is considered better than the average.
 Ragan comes third, with fourteen vic- tories and eighteen defeats. Turner has won eleven games, and lost twenty. It is to be seen that he has lost more games than any other pitcher. Weller appeared 1 nthree games, losing two and tieing the other.
 The records are based on the plan in the Southern league of deciding which pitcher deserves credit for a victory when more than one figures in a game. Will helm, for instance, has finishNd nine games this season for local pitchers a.ll gets no credit for same. There can be no doubt but that he should be given some sentimental credit at any rate, as it is a certainty that his appearance on more than one occasion turned the tide.
