TIE COUNCIL and STREET
CAR FRANCHISE PETITION

The town council transacted no
business at the adjourned meeting
Monday night but adjourned to
Friday night for consideration OF
the street car franchise. The petit.
TONERS made no appearance Mon
day evening and it is under stood
that the delay on their part was for
the,purpose of conducting further
negotiations with the North Coast
with reference to a sale of the dock
to the Strahorn corporation and in
that event the Improvement Co..
would retire from the field and let
North Coast build to the dock.
The council called public meet
ing some weeks ago in order to get
a'line on public sentiment with re.
gard to this franchise and at that
meeting the matter. was discussed
by many speakers and in full detail.
The consensus Of opinion gather
ed from these speeches was that
Under proper restrictions should be
permitted to build spur from the
dock to east end of Railroad street
to reach a warehouse built there:
No. rpeaker with perhaps single
exception outside Of the petitioners
themselves favored giving away
frahchlse on other streets at this
lime and there the matter rests.
No:sadditional reason has been adj
vanced by the petitioners why any
mofe extended grant should he
mule and there has been no change
in the opposition Of public opinion
'oany such grant at this early stage
in:fhe towns development.

COLv|[ii.[ INDIANS
NUMBER 5000
DIR. LATHAM OF THE GOVERN
MENT SERVICE STATES THAT
ALLOTMENTS ARE NOW MOST.
LY ALL MADE.

DR.. Latham, of the government
service, who has for 10 years been
on the Colville reservation, was in
Wenatchee a few days ago and stated
to the Daily World that 5000 In
dians had already received their al
lotments in the south half of the
Colville reservation. He says that
Wenatchee Indians may get allot-
ments.
Indians are assembling from all
parts of the state to claim their right
to become owners of part of the land
and those who are entitled to it are
given their allotments. Within the
last few months many have arrived
from Yakima, Umatilla and Snake
river to claim their right to a piece
of the land.
DIR. Latham was formerly located
in Spokane. where he practiced his
profession before the big fire which
destroyed so many buildings in that
town.

No DECISION
AS To APPLE
SHOW
BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE
WENATCHEE COMMERCIAL
CLUB WILL HOLD MEETING
SOME TIME THIS WEEK.

An effort has been made on sew
eral occasions during the last week
to have a meeting of the board Of
directors of the commercial club in
order to determine whether or not
the club should take the initiative in
making an exhibit at the National
Apple Show in Spokane but meet
ing has not been held.
Since it has been generally known
that the apple grading rules handi-
capped this valley, most of the big
growers have refused to enter for
the carload sweepstakes prizes. Sew
eral of the club directors, however.
feel that carload exhibit should be
prepared for this show for exhibition
purposes, anyway. 1t need not be
entered for a prize but it is felt that
Wenatchee valley will make a great
mistake by not having at least one
carload of mixed varieties for exhibi-
ton purposes.
D. N. Gellatly, formerly secretary
OF the Wenatchee Commercial club,
who has had charge of the Chelan
county booth at the A.-Y.-P.. states
that he believes that notwithstanding g
the handicap of the grading rules.
that If the men in this valley who
had at first planned on making the
carload exhibit, that is taking in a
carload of Stayman Winesaps. Wine
saps, Arkansas Black and a mixed
car, that there would be no difficulty
In again capturing the big prize at
the National Apple Show.
The fact of the matter is, however,
that the growers themselves feel in
censed at the directors of the Ma
tional Apple Show for adopting such
rules as they did and do not feel
disposed to exhibit at the show this
year. The directors Of the club will
meet some time this week and de-
eide positively as to whether or not
any effort will be made toward MAX
ing this carload exhibit.
While the rules are against this
valley In carload exhibits, yet there
is no discrimination whatever in box
exhibits, and the growers are urged
by George H. Farwell. who has
charge of making the exhibit at the
National Apple Show to save out the
best varieties for the box and plate
exhibits and while the prize may go
to some other valley for the carload
exhibit, yet there is no doubt what
ever that the box and plate prize
will come to this valley.

VS..
WENATCHEE

On Saturday, October 2, the Sno-
homish football boys will journey to
Wenatchee to capture the Big Red
Apple pigskin. The boys feel conf
dent that success is to come and have
worked so hard for the coming game
that we expect them to wipe the We
natchee boys off the gridiron and set
up a new record for the Snohomish
football team. The team is in good
trim and will fight from the word go.
No doubt the boys will have a hard
struggle; but with the coaching, hard
and conscientious work, the boys
have had for the last three weeks,
they are prepared for it and we ex-
pect them to shove the pigskin across
the line more than once.
With the line heavy and solid AS
a stone wall that will withstand any
line plunges, the back field as swift
as creased lightning, and with the
training the boys have had, there is
no doubt in our minds that the foot
ball days of Wenatchee will be a
thing of the past.
Wenatchee's First Game of the Season
The football boys made record
last year to be proud of and are now
working hard in order to defend that
record and to wipe Snohomish off the
gridiron ani out of existence.
The team, from the continuous
hard work they have had the last two
weeks, is in excellent trim and un-
doubtedly will plant the pigskin be-
hind the goal post many times. The
line is heavy as water-soaked log
and is a solid piece of frame work,
while the fieeting back field, with
Tweed, eDitch, Foster and Lake, is
giong to set things whirling and
bring down the championship cup.

Seattle, Sept. 30.-Looking the
picture of health, President Taft was
up early this morning preparing for
his day at the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific

pose of his trip across the continent.
The attendance at the exposition was
very large and everyone saw the
president, though there was no pub
lie reception.
The president and party, including
Secretary Ballinger, Governor Hay,
and John Hays Hammond, were ia
ken to the grounds in automobiles
and welcomed on the steps of the
auditorium by the officials of the re-

was the school children who, as they
marched past the president, formed
the letters T A F T. After the pa
rade President Taft visited the vari-
Gus buildings. While the president
and party were in the buildings other
persons were excluded.
At 1 o'clock the president had
luncheon with so persons in the New
York building. During luncheon the
great natural amphitheatre at the
exposition grounds became mass Of
humanity, fully $4,000 persons gath
ering to see the president. The ex-
ercises at the amphitheatre, at the
request of the president, were very
brief.
Later in the day the president was
initiated into the Arctic Brotherhood.

inscribed on caribou skin embel-
lished with gold nuggets from Alas
ka.
Tonight he will attend a banquet
and make the principal address.

INDIAN ORIGINATED
new APPLE

The new apple known as the Che
Ian and declared by fruit men to be
among the finest ever originated, was
grown first by an Indian on Lake
Chelan. The c. & o. Nursery COM
pany are so pleased with the results
of the new apple as keeper and for
its delectable qualities that they are
making a specially of it this year and
expect to sell a very large number
from this time on. They have So
90 trees budded for next year.
AS an indicative of its keeping
qualities the C. & o. Nursery COM
pany left sample at the Daily World
Office which was kept in a common
cellar all winter, put in cold storage
in June and not taken out until the
25th of September. The apple was
perfect in every respect and has a
flavor which is declared by many 20

it is nearly a year old, to the Spitz-
enberg in the winter.

escaped last night from the state re-

BANK

Glenwood Springs, Colo, Sept. 80.
Two posses are searching the
mountains near this city for two ban
dts who robbed the Citizens National
bank of Glenwood Springs Of $4,000
yesterday. The robbery was one of
the most spectacular. 1t was broad
daylight and the street in front of the
bank were thronged with summer re-
sorters. The robbers, unmasked, en-
tered the band and commanded Act

FIGHTING AGAINST
TR|bESMEN
SPANISH TROOPS OVERWHELM
THE MOORS ONLY AFTER Sc
WE'RE ENCOUNTERS
ALTON OF WAR MEANS MUCH.

Madrid, Sept. 30.-The war Office
announces today the complete success
of the maneuvers in Morocco against
the Moors.
Both Nador and Betuan have been
occupied. At the latter town there
was bloody fighting with large bodies
of Moors. The ring around Mount
Gurga is now considered almost
closed, and the position of the Moors
is desperate.
Kaid Amas appeared before Gen.
eral Marina, the commander of the
Spanish forces, yesterday and asked
terms of surrender for the tribes en-
trenched on Mount Gurga. The re-
suits of this conference are not known
but it is believed the Moors are ready
to submit without conditions.
The immediate successful termina-
ton of Spain's war against the Moors
which has been going on since July,
would be of inestimable advantage to
the government of Premier Maura,
against whom the campaign in Spain
is daily becoming more intense among
the lower classes.
Burning Villages Light Coast.
Alhucemas, Morocco, Sept. 80
The entire coast line here is illum-
mated with the fires of the burning
Moorish villages. After the Spanish
batteries in the fighting of yesterday
had silencei the native artillery, the
infantry advanced and drove the
Moors from their positions.

TWO RASSEN-
GERS COME
TOGETHER
EAST AND WEST EARLY MORN
ING TRAINS COLLIDE AT era
TER, EAST OF ROCK ISLAND
ENGINES BADLY DEMOLISHED.

No. 8 passenger train did not ar
rive in the city this morning until
about IL o'clock. The reason for
this was the collision of No. 2 and
No. 8 passenger trains at Crater, just
east of Rock Island, about 5 o'clock
this morning. No. had been set
out on the sidetrack awaiting the ar
rival of the second section of No. 2.
When No. came in sight an ex-
cited brakeman threw the switch, al
lowing both trains to come together
with considerable impact. Both en-
gines were very badly damaged and
one mail car was also somewhat de-
molished. Neither the engines nor
any of the coaches went off the track.
New engines had to be secured be-
fore the trains could proceed. One
fireman was slightly injured and a
number of the passengers received a
considerable shaking up. Both en-
gines will have to be in the repair
shop for some time.

balance is on the right side of the

rants have not been discounted yet
sometimes there has been a little diff
ficulty in handling them. The $12,-

several months to come anyway there

Celebrate Spanish Victory

Madrid, Sept. 30.-Popular rejoic-
ing over the victory of the Spanish
forces over Morocco eliminated at
midnight when the immense crowds
assembled before the royal palace
shouting Long live the king" On
his appearance on the balcony, the
king was wildly cheered. Some news
papers insist Spain must, as a reward
for military sacrifices. take energetic
diplomatic action. The opposition of
the press insinuates the proclamation
of the victory as premature.
