"There is one acre in my orchard
from which I will pick $4,000 worth
of apples. This particular acre is
planted very close, 108 trees in all.
and each is loaded to its fullest ca
pacity, averaging Is boxes to tree.
At 81 a box this will return $4,000,
and as the apples are high grade :.
may get $3.50 box, which would
he breaking all records for acre re-
ceipts, so far as l know.
81 am opposed to telling such sto-
ries as these unless proper explana-
ton is made, so that the public will
not be misled. All of the Wenatchee
orchards are not yielding at this
rate, nor will my orchard do so we'll
every year. Still, the average yield
for the entire valley is very high,
much higher than ever before
known.
Il believe that the Wenatchee
valley yields a greater annual profit
than any similar acreage in the
world
Many trees which have not been
propped up this year have broken to
pieces and every limb lies on the
ground. Numerous Eastern commits
sion houses have branches at Wenat-
chez, while all of the Seattle and
Spokane houses have regular buy
ers on the ground all the year round.
The Great Northern is sending entire
train loads Of apples through to st.
Paul and Chicago. For perishable
fruit, such as peaches and cherries,
complete refrigerating plant is
maintained at Wenatchee to ice the
cars.

The Oregonian has been making
a canvass of Portland business
Buildings with a view of learning
what candidates for the presidency
are favored by Portland professional
men. The summary of the Oregon
ian building vote shows Roosevelt
overwhelmingly in the lead with "a
votes, Taft second with 8, Hughes
with 6, and Fairbanks with 1. while
Bryan gets 3. This, despite the Ore
gonian's repeated assertion that Mr..
Roosevelt will not again be candi-
date. Then considering the dictums
that have emanated from this Port
land tower of silver utteranca,
those three Bryan votes call for eX-
PLANTATION. Evidently Oregon.an

HAD THEM SCARED.
When Buxton Man Threatened to
Make a Few Widows.

Abba, Sept. 11.--W. NJ. Davis, of
Buxton, has been placed under a 800
peace bond in justice court in this city.
The trouble that made such bond
necessary was the fact that Davis had
gotten into trouble with G. ID. Yancey,
president of the Buxton local union
of the U. M. w. A. Davis was par
ticipating in a debate of a question
that was before the local and was
called down by the chairman. He per
sisted in telling his part of the argu-
ment, when it was suggested that he
be fined for not obeying the chair.
That lead him to make the remark
that If he was fined there would be
some killing and widows in Buxton
in about three minutes. The chairman
was fearful that the threats might be
put into execution and had Davis ar,
rested, and the case was brought to
this city on change of venue.

A big piece of railway construction
work is in progress southwest of the
city, employing large number of men.
a steam shovel, construction train

sary equipment and a spreading appa-
ratus. The work includes the moving

Interchange OF freight between the
Iowa Central and the O., b. & @ rail-
ways. The present transfer tracks
north of 11th avenue are wholly made
quate to meet the demands of the ex-
isting business, and endless annoyance
and dissatisfaction has grown out Of
the methods that had to be employed
in handling the cars.
The new work starts at a point near
l1th avenue and will be continued TO
the southwest distance of about a
lalf mile. or to where the @. track
turns to the west. big bank of dirt.
between the Central and the Q.tracks

necessary road bed for the new track

needed room can be secured The
work of grading for the new transfer
being conducted by gangs of Q.
yorkmen and the Q. equipment is be-
ng used. 1t is understood that the
owa Central is also party to the
improvements and bears its share OF
the cost
The transfer business between the
roads at this station has long since
)utgrown the accommodations provid-
ed when the traffic agreement was first
entered into. Delays and annoyanee
in handling cars growing out of the
limited space provided, resulted In
endless trouble between the roads and

rhe ground was looked over and sur
geyed. No available point could be
located excepting between the Iowa
Central and Q. tracks south of I1th
avenue, and this location is faulty on
account of heavy grade toward the
southwest, known as the Beacon
Hill" Orders were issued, however,
to build the tracks here, and this is
the work now in progress.
The grading will occupy a number
of days, and several weeks must elapse
before the new track will be ready for
use.
1t is stated that the Iowa Central,
which has long been cramped for track
room in the Oskaloosa yards, will
take advantage of the excavations
made and will put in one or more ad-
ditional tracks alongside of the trans
fer now being constructed. 1t is
said that the new tracks would give
the relief that has long been sought.

PENNSYLVANIA Low
FARE LAW IS VOID
DECLARED UNCONSTITUTIONAL
BY COURT AT PHILADELPHIA.
CASE WILL BE APPEALED
Supreme Tribunal Of State VIII Pass
on Statute That Was Enacted
by Almost Unanimous
# Vote.

Philadelphia, Sept. IL. - Judges
Wilson and Audendried of the COM
mon pleas court, Tuesday declared
unconstitutional the two-cent railroad
fare law passed by the last legisla-
ture. The case upon which the deci-
sion was rendered will be taken to the
supreme court at once.
The two-cent fare law was enacted
by the legislature as a result of agi-
tation during the last campaign, all
parties pledging themselves in favor
Of such legislation. The railroads,
led by the Pennsylvania and the Read
ing, made strong fight, but both
branches of the legislature passed the
bill with virtually a unanimous vote.
The act was to go into effect octo-
Der 1.
Pennsylvania Began Attack.
The Pennsylvania was the first, to
make the attack, bringing suit In the
local courts to restrain the county
of Philadelphia from collecting the
fine for violating the provisions of the
act. The hearing lasted nearly a
week, and among the witnesses were
President McCrea and several vice
presidents of the Pennsylvania.
The contention Of the company was
that the law was not constitutional
and that the two-cent rate was fixed
without investigation on he part Of
the legislature as to whether the rail-
a., fair pTrn6f nndnr
1t, which the Pennsylvania asserted
1t could not do.
All other railroads operating in
Pennsylvania have brought similar
proceedings in various counties, but
decisions have not been rendered, as
1t is generally understood that the
Pennsylyania's suit will be made the
test case in the higher court.

In the rate fight now being made by
the railroads of Minnesota against the

ture Mr. Robert cited a number of
authorities to show that the regulation
of commerce and transportation rested
wholly with congress.

MAY SOLVE STAMP THEFT
ARREST OF WOMAN MAY CLEAR
POST OFFICE ROBBERY.
Five Thousand Dollars In Stamps
Found In Possession Of
Lucy Roy.

Chicago, Sept. 11.-With the arrest
by detectives from the Twenty-second
street police station Tuesday of Lucy
Roy, woman thief Of international
notoriety, the clearing up of the ia
nous lake front post office robbery is
believed to be near.
The woman was arrested as a sus-
picious person by Detectives Griffin
and Dwyer, who knew her as a for,
mer inmate of the penitentiary. When
she was searched $4,000 In postage
stamps was found secreted.
Capt. McCann Immediately placed
himself in communication with Inspec.
tor Stuart of the federal service. The
inquiry which resulted reopened the
mystery which had baftied the police
and post Office inspectors of the coun.
try for years.
The postal thieves secured $74,600
the night of Oct. 20, 1901, from the
temporary post Office ON the lake front
at the foot OF Randolph street. 1t was
generally believed that inside workers
oooiobSu III Iho lODpSlys MdAy hSuI
some of them prominent in profes-
sional circles, were put under surveil.
lance. Stamps to the value of $4,000
were recovered in New York city a
few years ago.
The arrest of the negress, Lucy Roy,
Is regarded of the greatest Importance
by the police and lends new tangle
to the post Office mystery,
Whether the woman is at the head
OF band Of post Office thteYes or was
simply used as tool by those who
effected the $4,000 robbery is ques.
ton that is being determined by Capt
Mccain and his detectives.
The Roy woman has been under
suspicion for weeks and when tip
was given the police that she was dis,
posing of postage stamps it was de.
ciAed to arrest her. She was found in
cottage in Dearborn, near Sixteenth
street, by the detectives, and after
making determined fight with her
captors, taken to the station.
A search of the premises resulted
In the recovery of the stamps.

struck by a train which knocked him
off the high embankment on the east
division of the Chicago, Burlington &
Quincy Ry. Gillian was farm hand

BRIDEGROOM coMETH NOT.
Festivities at Iowa City Are Called OF
BY His Absence.

Iowa City, Ia, Sept. 11.-The bride
was dressed, the guests assembled, the
wedding cake stood a mountain of
glittering ice with ripsaw trimmings,
but the groom came not. He has not
come yet.
The strange disappearance of Joseph
Reisner last night has set the whole
community talking Within an hour
of his wedding the man, who is a
driver for the Alert company, was at
his quarters busily arraying himself
in his wedding clothes. He left his
lodgings at p. M. and was seen no
more, though a hunt has been prose-
cuted for him which lacks nothing
in thoroughness.
The bride, who is the handsome
young widow of Fritz Rothweller, was
not disturbed at first.
Hell come along all right" she
chirped, but one older woman shook
her head ominously. The latter was
correct, as it proved.
Finally the guests were dismissed
and the widow was left alone with her
tears.
The missing bridegroom has been a
widower himself only six short weeks.
