Water Six Inches Deep at Wilson Creek
bridge Gone at Stratford--Quincy
A Lake---Great Northern Obliged to
Run Trains Over the Central Wash
ington Branch.

At noon today there was six inches
of water in the railroad telegrapher's
Office at Wilson Creek. and it is still
rising The food situation is very
bad between Adrian and Odessa.
Miles OF railroad track have been
washed ont and the property loss has
been considerable. The Great North
ern train from Spokane arrived here
at 8 a. m. 1t was train No. 3 and
left Spokane last night about p. m.
and went over the Northern Pacific
track through the Big Bend, via Cou-
lee City to Adrian. At Adrian there
was a stop of several hours. The
engine went wrong and word was
sent to send one from Wilson Creek.
A bridge at Stratford went out last
night so that it was impossible to get
the engine and one had to be sent
from here to help out the train.
The flood district extends from
Quincy to Odessa. Crab creek is a
raging torrent. Wednesday there was
a five hours down pour of rain and
yesterday there was another rain of
several hours duration. This melted
the snow, and the whole country is
series of lakes. At Quincy water

number of the streets. The property
loss at Wilson Creek is going to be
great. The principal trouble is near
that place. 1t is thought that it may
be possible to lay rails sufficient to
get trains over the road by tomor-
row evening.
The road is open pretty we'll to the
west. The summit is not giving as
much trouble as if did couple of

to the west is now between Seattle

HOLM INTRODUCES BILL To
Buy COLUMBIA RIVER BRIDGE
For the Second Time This Measure is up
to the State Legislature for Action---
Provides for Payment of $3.50, 0OO---
Mr.. Holm's First Bill---Vital Interest
to Wenatchee.

Representative r. F. Holm's first
bill in the legislature was that for the
purchase by the state of the highway
bridge across the Columbia river, at
Wenatchee, for 100000. This bill
was introduced at the session yester-
day.
This is the second effort that has
been made to secure legislative ac-
ton tending to the purchase of this
bridge. The successful hammering
by Speaker Falconer kept the bill
from passing two years ago, but it
is thought that the measure has a
better opportunity to pass this ses-
sion than it had two years ago. This
year the bridge measure is linked
with that of the state highway meas
ure and this is very popular meas
ure in both houses.
The Wenatchee daily world. [volume] (Wenatchee, Wash.) 1905-1971, 1909-01-22

The bill as introduced this year
by Mr.. Holm differs very materially
from the one introduced last session
in that the cost of maintenance is to
be divided between the counties of
Chelan and Douglas and the We
natchee Canal Company.
The bill has a better opportunity
for passing this year from the fact
that all central Washington is united
on it, whereas two years ago Doug
las county bitterly opposed the meas
ure.
The purchase by the state of this
bridge is of vital Importance to the
residents of this valley as If it does
not pass it is up to the men who put
the money into it to make it a toll
bridge in order to take care of the
interest on the investment.

STANLEY To PLAY
WITH VANCOUVER
NO CATCHER IN THE COUNTRY
KNOWS INSIDE BASEBALL BET
TER THAN HE-TAKES SUG-
DENIS PLACE.

Matt Stanley, the veteran catcher,
will wear a Vancouver uniform next
season. There was rumor afioat
around last week to the effect that
he would return to the diamond next
spring, but it lacked confirmation.
Thursday it was stated positively that
he had affixed his name to a contract
left with him by President Dickson.
Last season Joe Sugden was of
great value to the champions, both
in the game and on the bench When
he was drafted, President Dickson
to take his place. Stanley was avail
able although he has a position in
Seattle with A. G. Spaulding this
winter. There was practically no
negotiating, as Stanley was permit
ted to name his own salary.
Stanley knows inside baseball as
well as any catcher in the country,
and if he was a trifle stronger in his
throwing to second, major league
clubs would be after him pell nell.
SANKEY'S long suit is getting good
work out of young pitchers, and if
Vancouver should try to develop a
few youngsters this coming season,
Stanley will be of great value to the
club.

BRITISH ISLES To Be
GREAT APPLE MARKET
Edmund Returned This Morn
ing After Three Months Trip Across
the Water---Wenatchee Apples Made
Great Hit With Britishers---Says To
Ship Only the Best.

Mr.. and Mrs William Edmund re-
turned this morning from a three
months business and pleasure trip
to England and Scotland. Mr. Ed
mund created quite a sensation in
the British Isles, not from his per-
sonal appearance but from the fact
that he was the custodian of five
carloads of the finest apples the
British people had ever seen. Mr..
Edmund made the trip as the repre-
sentative of the Wenatchee Fruit
Growers Association, and while he
felt in duty bound to make his finan-
cial return first to the officers of the
association, he stated to the Daily
World this morning that his trip was
a financial success and that the five
carloads scarcely furnished him
fruit enough for samples. Everybody
wanted Wenatchee apples, and he
could have sold the entire output of
the valley at top prices.
"My trip" said Mr.. Edmund,
demonstrated that we have an I'M
limited market across the water for
our fruit if it is handled right. In
the first place I have learned that
only the most perfect fruit must be
sent, and that packed right and grad
ed right. Furthermore we must have
our own representative there to take
care of the selling after the fruit
arrives. l saw Yakima apples in
the London market but they were
selling low. The commission mer-
chants there are the worst robbers
that I ever saw and while our ap-
pies were bringing fancy prices the
Yakima apples were being slaugh-
tered. 1t takes a man personally in
terested in getting the money out o.
the fruit. Most of the varieties
raised here are adaptable to the Eng
lish market. The NewtOwn Pippin is
the best seller for the south of Eng
land country. The Winesap has not
been tested sufficiently across the
water to say positively as to whether
or not it is going to be a good seller
there, but my impression is that it
will be a good apple for Scotland,

where they have a preference for the
red apple. The Scots were unani-
nous in saying that | had the best
apples that they had ever seen.
Those shipped in the past from Cali
fornia and Nova Scotia had been of
very inferior grade and were not in
the same class with ours.
Il made but three displays-in
London, Southampton and Birming-
ham. These displays were witnessed
by the leading horticulturists of the
kingdom, and they pronounced the
apples absolutely perfect. My ap-
pies were in cold storage all the
time after leaving here and reached
the other side in perfect condition,
and as particular care had been taken
in grading and packing they made a
beautiful show. | found that the
Bellflower was not adapted to the
markets of the other side ana would
not advise shipping that variety, but
all of our other leading varieties will
be good sellers.
"My wife was sick most of the time
we were away. She has a sister at
Manchester, and I left her there

my home / tell you this country

TELLS FRIENDS
Of VALLEY
+. T. MOTTELER SAYS WENAT-
CHEZ LAND IS BETTER IN
VESTMENT AT $4,000 PER ACRE
THAN IOWA LAND AT 500.

F. T. Motteler, who recently came
here from Iowa, and has now en-
gagged in the real estate business, has
written his Iowa friends regarding
his new home here. A letter of his
was published in the O'Brien County
Bell, published at Primghar, Iowa,
and among other things gives his
impressions as follows:
"Now, a few words in regard to
this section of the country. The
best fruit land here near town is cell
ing for $4,000 per acre. That is for
land in full bearing. These are not
boom prices but prices based on pre-
ductive value of the land. The best
land here is a better investment al
$4,000 per acre than land in Iowa at
500 per acre, and am not sore on
Iowa either. I think it is grand old
state
Wenatchee now has a population
of 5000 inhabitants, has seven
churches, three large school houses
and bonds have just been voted for
two more-one high school building
to cost $1,000 and one to cost $780,
900. Hundreds of dwelling houses
have been built within the last year
and several business blocks and at
least five more business blocks will
be built next summer. She is also
promised a new depot in the very
near future.
I notice that Mr.. Reynoldson takes
a little fall out of Wenatchee apples,
regarding flavor. The Wenatchee ap-
pies have such a well established rep
utation that a little adverse criticism
is taken here as a joke. The large
apples he mentions were novelties
and were exhibited as such and as
such won the prize. However, We
natchee had some medium size apples
there that took the first prize in
their class. This valley did not COM
pete for any of the big prizes at Des
Moines as it was fruit show, and
the transportation of all kinds of fruit
from here to Des Moines for exhibit
ton purposes is almost out of the
question. Out of twenty-five plate
exhibits at Des Moines from here
they took twenty prizes. And out OF
total of eighty first prizes offered
at the Spokane apple show the We
natchee valley took fifty-seven, in,
Guiding the big one for the best car

Newport, R. l., Aug. 24.-Unique among. the varied events and happen ings which have marked Newport's summer resort life of many years was the meeting today a Marble house. Mrs. O. H. P. Belmont's magnificent summer home. in the. interests of Votes for Women"
 The meeting, which was under the auspices of the National Woman Suf- frage association, was held beneath a spacious tent pitched on the lawn sur rounding Marble house. In the center Of this tent platform had been erect ed, where the speakers sat. Those who addressed the audience of 500 persons, of whom about $50 were women and about 150 men, were Rev Dr. Anna H. Shaw, president of the national asso- ciation. Mrs. Julia Ward Howe. Mrs. Belmont and Mayor P. J. Boyle of this city. Mayor Boyle also acted as chairman. It was estimated that the receipts from the sale of tickets and souvenir cards aggregated nearly $1,- 800. This money will be paid into the treasury of the national association. Admission to the house was separate from attendance at the lecture. For the privileges of the mansion, together with admission to the tent, $5 was charged to the former alone the fee was $1..
 To the opponents of woman suffrage who gathered here today there was ac- corded the honor of being the first per- sons, aside from servants and a few immediate members of the family, to enter Marble house in fourteen years.
