CAR SHORTAGE

APPLE GROWERS OF WASHING

YEARS CROP.

Unable to secure cars for shipment
earlier in the season apple growers OF
eastern Washington. with a big per-
centage of this seasons crop on hand,
are securing the worlds markets to
find an outlet for their fruit. WASH
ington growers are practically shut err
from the eastern market owing to the
danger of stock freezing while in tran
st and as the Pacific Coast market Is
limited and already over stocked, the
outlook for a maintainence of high
prices in vogue earlier in the season. is
decidedly blue.
According to Seattle wholesale houses
there are several hundred cars of
Washington apples yet unmarketed
and growers are looking to the orient
for an outlet for their surplus stock In
cold storage until spring if the situa-
ton does not improve and new mark
cts open up before freezing weather

that the st. Louis university team has

Seattle and Spokane are scheduled to
play in Seattle New Years day.
Multnomah would like to play the ST.

Correspondence is being taken up with

Because Of the inadequate ear SER

Fruit company considers it's financial
loss between $4,000 and 10000 for the

During the early season." said
Manager &C. f. Nosler, last evening,
''the companies asked us to give an es-
innate on the number of cars needed.
We gave them the information desired
and Immediately entered into contracts
with fruit ranchers for their produce.
During the season we purchased fruit
to the usual extent, but when we were
ready to ship we We're unable to secure
d sufficient number of cars Before the
railroad companies were abb TO sup
ply our demand, the price of fruit was
greatly reduced. Apples which were
selling OH the market for $3.50 to 81
per case was reduced to $O.75 and 81

MOVE CoNvcTs TO MONROE
WILL RETURN TO WORK ON THE
ROADS AFTER REFORMHTORY
is COMPLETED.

A gang of convicts from the state
penitentiary employed for several
months on public highways in Okano-
gan county, will be removed TO the
state reformatory at Monroe, according
to ]. II. Davis. member of the state
board of control, who is arranging for
the transportation of the convicts TO
Monroe. The rapid approach of winter
in Okanogan county, making it impos-
sible to work the convicts at a profit,
is given as the reason for changing
them to Monroe to work on the new
state refOrmatory.
After work under way at Monroe is
completed, the convicts will probably
be returned to the penitentiary for the
winter. although this matter has not
been fully decided upon. The expert
ment of working convicts Oh public
work has been found to be satisfactory
and arrangements will probably be
made to work additional men next year.
The risk of prisoners escaping has
been reduced to a minimum.

With the exception of a few out
buildings and fences being overturned
little damage was reported. although
in districts where the wind had a clean
sweep. people were alarmed at the ter
rifle gusts that caused houses to shake
as if in an earthquake.
The storm. coming up from the
southeast. struck Walla Walla about
seven o'clock and continued with un-
abated fury for several hours. The
extreme velocity of the wind. as re-
corded by instruments in Observer
Newman's office, reached SO miles an
hour. Residents from outlying dist
riots in the city today said the wind
reached a velocity of at least As miles
an hour and at times assumed the pros
portions of hurricane. The wind was
accompanied by a warm temperature
which cleared the mountains of snow
and only the highest peaks. visible
from Walla Walla, showed white this
morning.
