bors which brought him q much !
higher price than he was offered on
the local market.
Speaking of the apple market, Mr..
Roberts further said:
81 found in the larger cities that
owing to so many countermanded
orders resulting from the recent
money stringency, large quantity
of apples were not allowed to reach
their destination, but were held In
such large cities as Chicago, st
Louis and others. This necessarily
had bearish tendency on the mar
ket, for while the smaller towns
were suffering for apples, in the
larger cities they could be bought
at almost any price. In st. Paul
found the market glutted. but on
going to Cedar Rapids, Ia, a much
smaller city, I found dealers anxious
to buy them and disposed of my en-
tire lot in the smaller cities.
'It is not an oversupply of APP
pies that has caused the drop in the
market, but simply holdup of the
fruit in the larger cities which was
destined for the smaller places. Ore
gon, Washington and Idaho apples
find a ready sale in the Eastern mar
kets on account of their superior
quality and size. In many places
where the apples of the East can
not be sold at any price our apples
command a good price.
~ do not think that people hold
| ing their apples now need have any
doubts as to the sale of their prod
ucts, for in my judgment the mar
ket will resume normal appearances
by the first of the year or as soon
as the present lot in the cities be-
comes distributed through the
smaller towns. The consumption oil
apples by Eastern cities is enormous
I am told on good authority thai
New York city alone consumes more
than $4,000 boxes of apples each
day.
What the growers of this vale!
need more than anything else is Inn
proved methods of spraying anC
tending trees. If this is properly
done, there need be no fear but tina
our apples will always be in read.

Frisco Wreck in St. Inuis.

St. Louis, Sept 29.-Two coaches of Frisco passenger train No. 4. from Texas, were wrecked by collision with a freight train just inside the city limits late Friday night. The freight ran through an open switch upon the main track just as the pas senger was passing and went between the first and second coaches. A. R. McNeil of Salem, Mo. who was sitting in the rear of the first coach, had his hip crushed Several others were slightly bruised. The passenger train was running 30 miles an hour when the accident occurred and the fact that the freight crashed between coaches probably prevented loss of life.

ACCIDENT 1T AUTO RACES
Machine While Going 50 Miles an Hour Crashes Through Fence
 Into Crowd.
ShelSeR, DRIVER OF THE CAR, KILLED
Two Spectators Were Fatally Injured and Score of Others More or Less 6rused-Tire on Front Wheel of the Auto Burst and Caused Machine to Swerve.


 New York, Sept. 29.-In the first ac- cident of consequence in the 24-hour endurance automobile race at Morris Park race track, three persons were perhaps fatally injured and a score of others were more or less bruised Sat urday. One of the cars while going over 50 miles an hour, crashed through a fence at the western turn of the track in the 18th hour of the race. The car was a 40-horse power Lozier, which was being driven by Harry Smelser, of Newark, N. J. He was struck by heavy timber and thrown from the machine. When picked up 1t was found that his skull was frac- tured and he was taken to the Ford ham hospital where he later died. John Clarke, spectator who was standing near the fence when the ma chine dashed through, was injured in formally and a boy named Fred Tape, suffered fracture of his right leg and other injuries.
 Smelser and his partner, Linkron, were racing with another machine with which they had been sprinting for half an hour. Suddenly the tire on the front right wheel of the Lozier machine burst and the car swerved toward the fence at a point where about 200 persons were leaning over the rail watching the race. The ac- cident came with such suddenness that they were unable to get away and full ly 20 of them were knocked down and painfully hurt. Crowds rushed out on the track and 1t was impossible for the police to hold them in check. Many had narrow escapes from being hit by cars that were racing around the track the race not having been interrupted by the accident
 Driver Linkrom who was riding with Smelser escaped injury. It was an nounced that the machine probably could be repaired in a few hours and if so it would re-enter the race.
 At the end of the 18th hour Fiat car No. 12 was still leading, having GOV cred 553 miles.

and his party reached the city at 10:1b o'clock Monday morning, on schedule time. Upon leaving the train, the reception committee entered car riages and accompanied the president to the central high school, where he saluted the children and was then es- corted to the reviewing stand. When the parade had finally passed the pres ident and invited guests were escorted to the auditorium where an elaborate luncheon was served.
 After luncheon the presidential par ty proceeded directly to Monument hill where the crowd had already con- gregated.
 The mausoleum stands on an emin- ence to which has been given the name of Monument Hill. about two miles due west of the Mckinley home in the city of Canton. It is not an or nate affair, but It's simplicity is re- lieved by sufficient artistic embellish- ment to make it an object of beauty. as well as one of massive proportions and breadth of design.
 From the first step of the approach to the monument. to the actual top of the structure is 163 feet 6 inches, the mausoleum itself being 9S feet inch es high above the summit of the mound The top of the dome has an rculus 15 feet in diameter through which comes a softened light which adds greatly to the beauty of the in terior
 The mausoleuan is 7s feet inches in diameter. In the center of the floor beneath the dome stand the sar- cophagi containing the bodies of the president and Mrs. Mckinley, and in inches on the north side of the dome are the caskets containing those of the two daughters, Ida and Mary, who died in infancy.
 Half way down from the top of the 125 granite steps that lead up to the main entrance on the south side of the mausoleum stands an heroic representing him in the attitude usual ly assumed when speaking-his left hand holding a roll of manuscript, and the right hand in the trousers pocket. Behind the figure is a bronze chair encircled with wreath, and draped with the flag of the United States. The bronze figure, which is nine feet high, stands on a pedestal IS feet from the base to the feet of the figure.
 Upon the foot of the pedestal of the statue these words are inscribed:
 William Mckinley. president of the rIu'ssA States; a statesman singularly gifted to unite the discordant forces of government and mould the diverse purposes of men toward progressive and salutary action; magistrate whose boise of judgment was tested and vindicated in a succession of national emergencies; good citizen. brave soldier, wise executive, helper and leader of men. exemplar to his people of the virtues that build and conserve the state. society and the home"
 Twenty-six acres of ground were purchased by the monument commis- sion and the utmost art of the land scape gardner has been lavished upon the grounds. Natural streams flow past the base of the mound, and trees and flower beds have been arranged with an eye to the greatest artistic beauty.

AN EDITOR MAS K|DNAPED
An Attempt to Take Fremont Older of San Francisco Bulletin
 to Los Angeles
CONNECTED WITH GRAFT PROSECUTIONS
Tremendous Sensation Created in San Francisco by the High-handed Meth ods used-The kidnapers Were Headed Off at Santa Barbara by Habeas Corpus Proceedings.

San Francisco, Sept. 29.--Fremont Older, managing editor of the Bulletin, and prominently connected with the graft prosecution, was arrested in this city Friday evening on warrants issued in Los Angeles and sworn to by Luth- CT Brown, who charges Older with criminal libel. Older was arrested on the street and taken in an automo- bile to Redwood City, 25 miles south where connection was made with south-bound train for Los Angeles, on which he was placed in charge of of. ficers from that city.
 Older, it is said, was called by tele. phone message to hotel by some un- known person on a matter of urgent importance. On his way there, it is claimed, he was stopped by Luther Brown, detective from Los Angeles county, and two deputies, who pro- duced warrants from Los Angeles and read one of them. Older was then placed in an automobile and taken lo Redwood City which was reacheS in time to connect with the coast line limited for Los Angeles, leaving San Francisco at 6 o'clock. He was later in the night seen on the train bound south by a friend, who notified the authorities in San Francisco, who had inaugurated a search for him when his disappearance was reported. Steps at foE hxr rfo Ic fr, tc city to have Older released on habeas corpus proceedings at Santa Barbara when the train reached there Saturday morning.
 The warrants for Older's arrest were signed here by Judge Carroll Cook, who says that they had been issued by Justice of the Peace Chamberlain of Los Angeles.
 The charges against Older are said to have been based on an article which appeared in the Bulletin in connec- tion with the trial of Tiery l.. Ford, now in progress. in regard to the part Luther Brown took in the alleged eff fort few nights ago to kidnap For. mer Supervisor Lonergan, promin- ent witness in the graft prosecutions.
 The attempt to take Fremont Older of the Bulletin to Los Angeles, and the methods employed have created a tremendous sensation here on account of Older's connection with the gr fit prosecution. Older has been working with Heney, Spreckels, Langdon and Burns in the prosecution of bribers and bribe takers and through the wig orous course of his paper has incurred the enmity of all the indicted ones. Luther Brown, who swore to the libel charge is a Los Angeles lawyer and detective and has been engaged in the defense of Tiry Ford, general counsel of the United Railroads company, who is now on trial for bribery. Porter Ashe, who is said to have accompanied the arresting party on the train is al so one of Ford's attorneys.
