Nut Growing Industry of the South.

Nut Growing Industry of the South.
"Nut growing is comparatively
new industry in the south Atlantic
and Gulf states, but it promises. to de-
velop into one of the most important
In that section" said ]. q. Reid. a
prosperous planter of Florida The
most popular nut is the pecan, and its,
popularity is probably due to the de-
velopment of systematic methods Of
grading it and cracking it with ma
chinery operated by steam or electric
power. This makes possible Tie mar
keting of the meats Of the nut ready
for use.
"The demand is always much great
er than the supply and many planters
are now turning their attention to the
nut raising industry. 1t is not un-,
common for a tree TO bear as high as:
| 200 pounds of nuts in one season and
most of these sell at from 60 to TO
cents pound. It does not require
much figuring to show that the pecan
orchards which abound in some Sec
tions are paying investments"

Boise. Sept. 24.-The task of en-
paneling the jury to try Senator Bo-
rah, charged with timber land frauds.
was completed In the United States
court this morning.
The government accepted only men
who declared that the senator's exalt-
ed position would not deter them from
dealing out exact and equal justice as
between him and the government Of
the United States
The opening address TO the jury on
behalf of the United States was made
at the afternoon session by Mr.. Burch.
OF Detroit, special representative of
the attorney general OF the United
states. He dwelt at length on the de-
tails OF the charges as set forth in the
indlctments--that Of conspiracy to de-
fraud the government out OF timber
lands by Inducing persons TO make
false entries-and asserted that the
prosecution was without malice, but
the law should be carrier out without
fear or favor to the end that no guilty
man should escape. Mr.. Burch de-
clared that former Governor Frank
Steunenberg was one OF the leading
members of the conspiracy, and had
openly stated that he was Interested In
obtaining timber lands by causing 9th

Induced Others to go In with him

SEEKING ALLY AGAINST
MEXICAN AGGRESSION

Washington. Sept. 24.-The under
lying cause for the action Of Guate-
mala in trying to Influence Honduras
in the selection Of president in the
coming election Is said TO be Presi-
dent Cabrera's desire to insure an ally
to strengthen his position against
Mexico, which government he fears is
likely to pursue It's efforts TO secure
the punishment Of Guatemalan Off
cials charged with participation In the
assassination OF a former president In
Mexico City.
Reports OF Guatemala's activity In
Honduras politics have hastened to
conclusion the negotiations toward as
sembllng the peace conference IN
Washington next November.
with the recent signature OF the
Central American peace protocol both
the United states and Mexico believe
the danger OF an outbreak is averted.
The protocol binds the parties to u 70
refrain from any movement that
might disturb the status quo and
thus endanger the success of the pro-
jected conference, and as officials here
feel that any attempt by Guatemala
to interfere with the internal affairs
Of another sovereign state would be IN
violation OF that protocol It Is not
doubted here that the movement IN
favor Of BOnllla will be kept within
the bounds OF propriety.

RECEIVERS FOR NEW
YORK SURFACE ROADS

New York, Sept 24.-Federal Judge
Lacome today appointed Adrian Joleln
and Douglas Robinson receivers for
the New York City Railway company
on the joint application of creditors
and officials of the company.
The New York City railway is one
of the numerous corporations formed
in the various mergers of traction and
subway lines in this city. The City
Railway company guarantees certain
dividends on Metropolitan Street rail-
way stocks These dividends amount
to about $3.640,000 per year, and 1t
is estimated that the street railways
have fallen $2,000,000 a year short of
the earnings required to pay the divl-
dends. Ever since the consolidation
of the surface, elevated and subway
lines of this city under the name of
the Interborough-M Metropolitan COM
pany, it has been understood the sub
way and elevated lines were more than
holding their own, but that the sur
face lines operated by the Metropoli-
tan Interborough company were not
earning their fixed charges and divi-
dends.

UPHILL JOB
Officials Of Old Time Inde-
pendents Tell Their Troubles
at Hearing in New York.

New York Sept 24s--Accountants
Of the Standard oil company finally
audited the books Of the Waters
Pierce OIL company of Missouri after
1900, when its name disappeared from
the list of companies controlled by the
Standard, according to Wade Hamp-
ton, general auditor Of the standard
OIL company. who testified today in
the government suit against the oil
company. In 1900 the Waters Pierce
oil company was prohibited from do
ing business in Texas under the anti
trust law, because of its relations
with the Standard. The Waters Pierce
company was reorganized and the
stock held by the Standard was sold.
Testimony has previously been ad-
duced that Charles Pratt, secretary of
the Standard oil company, bought
the stock and had held It for the
Standard or its interests. Hampton
testified today that he had sent ex-
pert accountants to the Waters-Pierce
Oil company to audit the books at the
request of the officers Of the COM
pany. Attorney Kellogg produced a
letter sent by witness to one of the of
ficlals of the Waters-Pierce company,
stating that the accountant was on his
way and for reasons which he would
understand his name had better be
put on the pay roll of the Waters
Pierce company until the accounting
was completed. Hampton said he had
forgotten what the reasons were that
he mentioned in his letter.

ties was an interesting feature of the
days hearing. Lombard said he had
met difficulties In obtaining tank cars
to ship oil, and the company expert
enced difficulty In competing with the
Standard which, he said, was recelv-
ing rebates from tank lines. He had
two conferences with A. j. Cassatt. of
the Pennsylvania railroad. but was
told that the rebates which we're given
the Standard did not amount 10 much.
Cassatt. the witness said, suggested
that his difficulty would doubtless
cease II he united the lombard COM
pany with the Standard. Lombard tes-
titled that he had a conference with
Colonel Thomas Scott. president Of the
Pennsylvania railroad In which he
was told the Lombard company was
getting all the tank cars II could OBJ
tain under the allotment. Colonel
Scott, according to the witness. said
the Pennsylvania railroad would not
haul tank cars built by the Lombard
company Scott also expressed the
opinion that the Lombard a Ayres
company would do we'll to unite with
the Standard.
Anthony y. Brady. Of Albany, today
told how the Manhattan OH company
OF Ohio was sold 10 the London com
pany Brady said he had no idea
when the sale was made that the com
pany was going into the hands of the
