APPLE EXHIBIT IN
NEW YORK
w. ID. FINLEY, ASSISTANT MAN
AGER OF THE NATIONAL AP-
PIE SHOW, IN THE CITY-SE-
CURING APPLES.

w. ID. Finley, assistant manager
of the National Apple show, was in,
Wenatchee today for the purpose of
securing a carload of fancy, selected
apples for display purposes in
New York City. The expenses of
the exploitation Of this load of We
natchee fruit will be borne by sew
eral public spirited citizens of Spo-
kane, who are desirous of showing
the east what is produced by the or
chards of Washington. These men
have for some years past been promi-
nent in the publicity movement of
Spokane anj were so enthused by
the display at the second National
Apple show that they were convinced
that exhibits of goodly proportion
placed in a central location in New
York City would be OF more benefit
to the up-building of this section of
the country than any other medium
of publicity that has been previously
tried. These gentlemen, whose names
Mr.. Finley feels should not be known
at present, owing to their desire to
make this project purely a publicity
matter without any ulterior motive
or any interest in the real estate de-
velopment, are withheld for the
present, but Mr.. Finley states that
they are all prominent men connect
ed with the management of the Spo-
kane Chamber of Commerce.
The plan is to secure the first
floor of a large building in the vici-
nifty of the Grand Central, on 42nd
street, New York City, and they are
to display the apples together with
large collection of photographs an l
paintings of which one-half carload
has already been on exhibition in
the Museum of Finance in Boston for
the past month. Fifty thousand four
color maps of the Inland Empire
have been ordered printed in Buffalo
for the free distribution and in addi-
tion there are upwards of one mil
lion pieces of literature shipped to
that place for free distribution by
the commercial clubs of this section
The railroad companies have offered
to contribute a large amount of liter
ature printed especially for and de-
voted to the orchard industry A
corps of experienced publicity men
will accompany the fruit and a large

HOLIDAY SHIPMENTS.

The switchmen's strike is already
having deterrent effects locally on
account of no freight of any charac-
ter being received here. While busi-
ness men generally do not antici-
pate a strike of any great duration
yet there is a possibility of it being
has a dampening effect on business
very similar to the conditions which
existed here two years ago this
month when the banks were issuing
certificates rather than paying out
any money.
But few Wenatchee merchants
have received their stocks of holi-
day goods and many are wondering
whether they will get them delivered
in time to put them on sale. Large
holiday stocks are now under way to
Wenatchee and the switchmen's s
strike could not have come at a
more inopportune time, so far as
the shipments of merchants are con-
cerned. A local business man this
morning said: Il have only a small
part of my stock of special holiday
goods in. | had a notice a few days
ago that the last of my goods had
/ been shipped and by this time they
are somewhere in the middle west
sidetracked, I suppose to await the
abilities are that the strike soon will
| involve other trainmen and then the
tie-up on freight will become COM
plete and indefinite
There is also probability Of a
fuel famine in the city There is
but little wood of any kind in the
city, most of the dealers depending
on several carloads coming in each
day and being able to supply the
trade from the cars direct. The same
is true of coal, and it is safe to say
that if there are no shipments re.
ceived in the city within week
that the town will be without coal
Guy H. Whitson stated this morn
ing that he is sending out about q
tons of coal per day and probably
had enough on hand to last a week
John H. Ferryman stated that hi
only had on hand about $50 ton:
and states that the supply will no
last over a week.
The Wenatchee Ice & Cold Storage
company has on hand a supply O
coal but this will last but shOr
time
1t is not likely that there will b,
any suffering from food on accOun
of the strike situation, but should i
be indefinitely prolonged there viii
be shortage in many articles ne
cessary to the business life of tn,
city. Coal oil, gasoline, fuel and 81
forth are bound to run short.
