XMAS DECORA-
TONS IN STORES
PARSHALL'S AND BAZAAR BEAU.
THY WALLS FOR HOLIDAY
TRADE.-TOY WINDOW AT
ELLIS-FORDE'S.,

The shopping for Christmas has be-
gun fully ten days earlier than it did
last year. Advertising is the ex-
PLANTATION. In order to avert the
usual rush of the last few days before
Christmas, but not decrease the total
sales, a movement was quietly started
to urge early buying. Attractive adj
vertisements in the Daily World dur
ing the past week have started the
ball TO rolling Several merchants
this morning stated that already they
are nearly sold out of lines which
were supposed to be ample for the
entire holiday season.
To give the Avoii-the-rush-shop-
early movement impetus, some Of the
stores are making Christmas displays
and are decorating their walls. Sew
eral days ago the crowds of boys and
girls about the north window of the
Ellis-Forde company called attention
to the fact that Santa Claus is hover
ing near. A very attractive display
of toys, games, ETC., is invitingly ar
ranged there.
At the Bazaar a sort of arbOr,
made with colored streamers, has
been continued from the front of the
store half way back. Suspended by
threads from the ceiling, all kinds of
bells, favors and gaudy things dangle
, just above the heads of coming and
going purchasers. The counters and
display windows certainly look good
to the children, and to the grown
| folks, too.
Parshall's walls and ceilings are be-
| ing very tastefully decorated by S. F.
Corbin. Red and green streamers in
great profusion have been draped
over all the ceiling ana walls of the
large store. Holly wreaths and red
bells are suspended hither and thith-
Il err. Prices on goods displayed are
marked on very beautifully designed
Xmas cards. The whole establish
ment is taking on warm, holiday,
homelike appearance as the result OF
Mr.. Corbin's efforts and art.
| Nearly all the other stores are
planning original and striking dis
plays and decorations. By the fore
part of next week Wenatchee and
Oronio avenues will be ablaZe with a
gorgeous array of holiday lights and
colors.

$1,500,O00 FOR
COLUMBIA RIVER
SECRETARY OF TREASURY HAS
REPORTED ABOVE SUM AS
NECESSARY FOR IMPROVE
PROVENENT OF RIVER.

Secretary of Treasury G. B. Cor
telyou has submitted to congress his
estimate of appropriations for the
COLI rnbia river, as follows: Mouth of
river, $450,0OO; Celtic canal al
Ia les, $1,164,O00; u1n3' Columbia
and Snake, $4,000; Columbia River,
Washington, $4,000.
The above are the recommends
tions of the secretary and have to
be sanctioned by the congress be-
fore they are allowed. 1t will take
a fight by the state congressional del
egation before the sum is available.
The prospects are that the present
congress will seek to retrench on
public improvements. Speaker Can
non has made a public declaration
that he will oppose all river aDpro-
priations, and these measures vii
have to ba passed over his head.

Malaga, making a very respectable

NORTHWEST TO SUPPLY
EUROPE WITH APPLES
Famous Exporter Says That Europe
Wants the Best That Can Be
Grown and "Will Pay the Price
For Themw Will Buy Here in
Large Quantities in the Future.

THAT won't work." interrupted Mr..
James l.. Gibson.
Mr.. Gibson, also an exporter who
arrived this morning, and Mr.. Haines
were sitting in the restaurant con-
Quoted by the domestic economy de-
partment of the Washington State
college, the guests at an apple lun-
cheon of Secretary Nicely.
"Will not Great Britain protect
Canadian apples by tax, even If a
protective tariff should Gomez" in
sisted Mr.. Gibson.
Great Britain wants these apples"
concisely returned Mr.. Haines, "ani
she's going to get more of them with
every year. l am the biggest indi"
vidual exporter of pears and apples In
the United States, and one-fifth Of the
fruit that goes out of this country Is
shipped by me. I am after the apple
crop of the northwest now, and a
good part of it will go to Europe"
Both exporters stated later that the
season was too late for business this
year, but that they were here to learn
! the country AMI conditions. Their
biggest business, hitherto, has been
with the apple growers of western
New York and Virginia. Last season
Mr.. Haines shipped 10000 barrels OF
apples from western New York alone,
for which he received over $4,000.

I've been selling a few apples
from Washington and the northwest
of the United States, but from now on
| intend to make big hole in your
crops every year." declared S. Haines,
exporter of apples, to a Spokane
Chronicle reporter.
Mr.. Haines had just arrived in
Spokane from his trip across the con-
tinent, and he was deligted with the
promise of the National Apple show.
Upon Secretary Neely's invitation he
will confer with the judges when they
come to the commercial packing
marks for awards, as Mr.. Haines is
an authority upon packing.
There is big market for Wash
ington apples in Europe now con-
tinued Mr.. Haines, but it's going to
be bigger. This is my first trip to
this country, but, as l say, can al
ready see where my business here in
the future will be increased many
fold.
your apples are too high-grade for
,, the working classes in England. How
can you expect man on a weekly
wage of $3.50 to eat them? They
are luxuries. Yet there is good
sale in England for Washington APP
pies amongst those who can afford
them. England has to get protec-
tive tariff before the wages will war
rant the working class buying your
apples

BLOCKS SUBWAY ROUTE
Chanler Refuses Consent as Prop
ertu Ozcner to Commission.

Lewis Stuyvesant Cnanler. the Democratic
nominee for Governor. who has been trying to
show that the Public Service commissions nave
done absolutely nothing since they we're created
except to add very heavy expense 10 the tax
payers burden has himself done what he could
10 tie the hands Of the commission and prevent il
from going ahead with its plans for giving New
York real rapid transit by refusing TO give his
consent a property owner to the route for the
Broadway-Lexington avenue subway.
Last Tuesday night in the Clermont Avenue
Rink. in Brooklyn. in expressing himself on what
he termed the general futility of the commissions
Mr.. Chanler had this 70 say:
They (the commissions have not brought Us
more subways although they were heralded d mo NO
were to have final solution OF the rapid transit
8SefnR PT9919 in ne The Brosx last Wednesday night
Blue print drawings have been made. put not

Mr. ChanIer failed TO tell his audience. how
ever that when the Public Service Commission
was endeavorng to get the consent Of property
owners for the Gerard and Jerome avenue branch
of the Broadway-Lexington avenue route last
spring he declined to give it Mr. Chanler IS also
a member Of the Astor family. which owns ma
torty in value Of the property in River and
Gerard avenues. Had the consent OF these mem
bers OF the Astor family been obtained IL would
have been unnecessary for the commission TO
make application TO the Appellate Division OF the
Supreme Court for approval of It's route
AS il is. these proceedings. which have already
been instituted. Will probably take a year. but
Mr Chanler evidently overlooked his part IN
bringing about this delay when he made nls at
tack on the commissions Mr- Chanlers assertion
10 the people of The Bronx on Wednesday night
that he would not stop that borough from getting
the transit facilities II needed. as your present
Governor has DONE does not seem TO harTnOnize
with his action IN blocking the commissions ef-
forts TO build another subway through The Bronx
A notable coincidence is that the law firm OF
Hays & Hershheld. which represents the Fleisch-
mann Realty Company in the injunction pro-
ceedings to prevent the building OF the Fourth
avenue subway in Brooklyn is also counsel for
the objecting property owners along the Broad
Way-Lexington avenue route
The Public Service Commission also nailed yes

lines being built In New York since the commits

Company has built q new electric line through

CAPTAIN BURR INJURED.
Harcard Leader ont of Game scith
WrenChed Shoulder.
rBr telegram to The Tribune.


Cambridge Mass. oct. S0.-Captain Burr was
badly injured in the secret practice for the Har
ward varsity football team to-day The Crimson
captain hurt his shoulder while falling the ball
in elementary practice and was Immediately taken
from the field. Later the management would not
give any definite statement to Burrs injuries,
but said that the medical attendant considered 1t
serious and that the Harvard leader would be kept
from the game for two weeks at least The loss
Of Burr the team the eve Of the game with
Brown has had q dernoraIzing effect on the rest
Of the team and leaves the issue doubly uncertain
MCGUIRE viii take the captains place but is not
up 70 the mark in offence
Harvard has no player with the kicking ability
Of Burr. and this will greatly hamper the team
Kennard viii play the fuIlback position but is not
e strong player and has not the range IN punting
that Burr possesses. Foar, the regular right guard
Is OF condition, and Dunlap viii have to take his
place making the centre OF the Harvard line de
Cidedy weak. Hope for Harvard remains in her
secondary line Of defence. White, Corbett, and
lately kennard, have shown great tacking ability
and may do well tomorrow. The backs are a lit
lie too fast, and often neglect TO play the safe
game. letting the play come by the line Of scrim-
mage before tackling the runner. Yer Wiebe will
take the fuback position later In the game.

Columbia Seniors and Freshmen
Unable to Score in Football Game.

In a hard fought contest the Columbia freshmen
played the seniors standstill in the interclass
football game South Field yesterday afternoon
Although the freshmen outpayed the 09 eleven at
nearly every stage. they were unable 10 score and
the result at the end of two fteen-minute periods
was to @. The freshmen were skilful in their use
OF the forward pass and to this may be attributed
their long gains through the heavy senior line.
Straight football played unimportant part in
the work Of the teams, and the seniors were IN
able TO make their distance once By rushing From
the very start the freshmen had the better OF It,.
and within five minutes play had the ball on the
seniors l0yard line. Here they lost it a tumble.
and Hayes and Knapp executed a perfect on-side
kick which placed the ball the freshmen's 10
yard line. The seniors lost the ball on downs. and
the freshmen rushing it down the field when
the half ended In the second half the freshmen
worked the forward pass for gain Of twenty
yards and link plunged through the u line for
fifteen yards, but neither side was able to get
within striking distance Of the goal
