Frederick Howe, in the January

THE city Of London proper, which
lies in the heart of Greater London,

night. although 100000 people do bust
ness there by day, while all of the
currents of British life pass through
its portals.

YANKEE FISHERS
az RAP BAIT RULING
Declare Order Forbidding Purchase OF
Herring in B. O. Waters Has
Interior Motive.

Seattle.-According to owners Of
American falibut vessels the recent or.
der forbiddiDg Americans to buy her.
ring bait in British Columbia waters is
intended to force Americans to put
their ships under the British flag and
transfer rheii business to the Canadian
side, as one Boston company has al
ready done. The American fishermen
say that Japanese fishermen are given
every, privilege over Americans by the
regulations just promulgated by the Do
minion council.
In the han Dor of Nanaimo alone, be-
tween November 1, 1908, and February
is, 1909, Japanese fishermen caught 90
900 tons of herring, sailed them and
shipped them to Japan to feed their
countrymen. It is these fish that are
required in certain seasons of the year
by American halibut vessels and which
the dominion government absolutely
refuses to ary vessel carrying the Stars
and Stripes.

SHOWS PROSPERITY WAVE.
Railways Are Placing Heavy Orders for
Equipment.

The best evidence that the country
is again on a firm basis of prosperity
is shown in enormous purchases and
bids for equipment and betterments by
railroads. These infallible arteries of
trade must speedily adjust themselves
to the rising flood of business and their
orders mean additional prosperity fol
the mills and manufacturers.
The Pullman company of Chicago is
now bringing out heavy order from
the Santa Fe, the first passenger equip.
ment purchased by that system since
1906, owing to depression in business.
This order is made operative by the
Balen cutoff and other new lines. 1t
calls for 1870 steel passenger cars.
The Baltimore 6 Ohio is in the mar
ket for 5000 freight cars, 70 passenger
cars and 65 locomotives, for immediate
delivery. This order amounts to $1O,-
100000.
The Chesapeake & Ohio road has or
dered so new locomotives.
The Chicago & Northwestern has
placed orders for 1000 boxcars, 500 gon-
dolas and 500 ore cars.
The Missouri Pacific will receive on
August 1, 25 of an order for 100 loco
motives.
In addition to these there are mis-
cellaneous orders placed in smaller
lots for 1000 mining cars and 5000 9TH
er cars of all descriptions.

HARVEST OUTLOOK GOOD.
Most Every Section of the Northwes
Will Show Big Gain,

Weather conditions are. ideal for the
grain harvest and early threshing re-
turns more than bear out expectations
of a heavy yield. Around Washtucna,
where harvesting has already begun,
farmers are surprised at the abundant
yield and excellent quality. In the
Ritzville country the wheat already cut
is better than was expected. An aver
age yield of from 25 to 80 bushels an
acre is now confidently predicted.
Similar cheering reports come from
the Palouse country.
Down in the Lewiston country the
prospects were never better.
Weather conditions are also favor
able for the hay crop and, with good
prices for this product and very large
acreage, the returns from hay will be
second only to those from wheat.
1t has never failed in 30 years of the
farming history of the Inland Empire
that prosperity on the farms brought
brisk business to the towns and cities.

JEALOUS, SHE JAILs THEM.
Gang of Criminals in Seattle Betrayed
by Woman.

Seattle, July 20.-Through the jeal-
ousy of woman the police have been
able to capture the members of gang
of criminals who, they believe, have
been systematically robbing houses in
Seattle, Vancouver, B. c., Portland,
Ore, and Tacoma. HI. G. Moore, who,
the police say, is an ex-convict from
San Francisco is the alleged leader of
the gang. The police profess to have
a complete confession from Moore. 9th
ers arrested as members of the gang
are Claude Payne, Steve Adams and
a woman giving the name of Mrs. 0. M.
Slayter. 1t was owing to her jealousy
of Mrs. Slayter that another woman,
upon whom Moore had been lavishing
his affections, told the police of the
operations of the gang and led Moore
into trap that resulted in his arrest
and the capture Of his accomplices.
Claude Payne is young man who
says he has made living as pick
pocket and has been Moore's assistant
in several jobs. He is held as an ac-
complete. Steve Adams, who was for
merly railroad employee, assisted in
disposing Of the mass of stolen goods,
the police say.
Five diamonds, many watches, jewell
ry, dozen or more rings, cutlery, sill
yer and other articles have already
been recovered.
Moore came here with Mrs. Slayter
and the other two members of his
gang, he says, and started on cam
paign of burglary.
He finally ceased lavishing money ON
Mrs. Slayter and met the woman who
was his downfall. She basked in the
sunshine of his smiles for awhile, but
then the green-eyed monster appeared.

MONTANA NOTES

President Taft will visit Butte on
his western trip this fall, going there
from Salt Lake City, where he will ad-
dress the National veterans encamp-
ment August IL.
DIR. Thomas D. Tuttle, secretary of
the state board of health, is at Seattle
to purchaes tuberculosis exhibit for
the state. The cost of the exhibit is to
be betrayed by the Montana Health as
ISOLATION, which authorized the expen-
diture at the recent meeting of that
body at Missoula. The exhibit will be
utilized in the fight against tuburcu-
losis now being conducted by Montana
doctors in general, who constitute the
membership of the health association.
The Chicago, Burlington & Quincy
Railway company has quit the state of
Montana according to document
filed with the secretary of state and
the inference is that its lines in the
southern part of the state will herafter
be conducted by the Great Northern ex
clusively.
The mutilated body of a youth, pre-
sumably about IS years of age, was
found beside the Northern Pacific
track about two miles west of Missoula
recently. The head was battered badly
and across the left shoulder is long
wound, apparently made with heavy
weapon. At the county morgue investi-
CATION revealed papers which tend to
prove the lad is Charles Iben, formerly
of Peoria, III. An investigation is be-
ing held.
