Bishop Garrison Brings
Startling Charges
Against Senator.
INNER CIRCLE CULT
WEARS NO CLOTHES
Witness in Will Case Tells
Some Interesting Things
About Spiritualisn.

Los ANGELES, April 2.-Declaring
that former United States Senator Full
ton, of Oregon was once the dupe of
fake spiritualist medium and later
assisted in organizing bogus seance
so he could participate in the glory re-
sulting from the expose, Bishop Gar
rison, a sworn enemy of the psychic
cult, created a sensation here today
Garrison was the star witness for
the plaintiffs in the suits pending here
to nullify the codicil Of the will of
the late Robert c. Smith, who be-
queathed $4,000 to Dora Bennett. a
local medium. The bishop says he has
been fighting spiritualism all over the
country since he was swindled out of
money in Wichita, Kansas, years ago.
Bishop Garrison sayT he visited AS
toria, Oregon, one day and found Full
ton, his brother, DR.. Fulton, and An
gus Gore an editor, sitting at the
feet of boy medium. For $40 he ex-
posed the boy. The sitters then agreed
to assist in organizing a fake seanco t
be exposed. Fulton assisted in drum
ming up the crowd for the seance.
Garrison says that throughout the
Pacific coast a cult known as the "in
ner circle flourishes. He attributes
debauches of a startling nature to this
organization, saying that during the
sessions is members wear no clothes,
the theory being that wearing clothes

FOR WALLA WALLA

on First street and as this piece of
property is 60 by 120 feet in dimen-
sion, it offers an ideal location for such
an undertaking. Il is the idea of the
promoters to hold a meeting tonight in
which all who have shown any interest
in the proposition are invited to be
present and take part in the discus :.
sion. AS it has besn talked of for pome
time and many have displayed great
enthusiasm in the question, the promo
ters feel certain that a large number
will take hold and help in the con-
struction of q vaudeville house which
will be a source of pride III the city.
Although arrangements have not yet
ex ended far enough to embrace any
circuit with any degree of certainty
no trouble Is anticipated from this
source. as it is known that some of the
coast managers of vaudeville houses
are anxious to become identified with
this section of the country.
| Plans for the building have already
been completed and are pasterened af-
ter the finest of the kind in the
northwest. Nothing has been left un-
done and should the people take hold
as expected, it will be only question
of months before a first class struct-
ure will be added to the growing list
of brick buildings in this city.

Representative Burnett of

Serious Charges.

WASHINGTON, April 2.-Represen-
tative John w. Burnett, of Alabama,
talked the republican extravaganza"
today and declared the Payne bill was
a "sham and fraud He said:
1T seems that the republican men,
bers of the ways and means commit
tee are preparing a bill aimed deliba-
erately and premeditatedly at Ameri-
can women. The course of the ancient
members has not surprised me, but
he unprovoked treatment accorded the
women by Longworth, Gaines, Fordrey
and Cushman has filled me with hor-
ror and brought cons ternation in every
woman's club. 1t is bad enough for
them 20 be fooling with hosiery, union
suits and corset covers; but when they
put false teeth on the free list and
at the same time placing high pro-
tective tariff on garters, /, as a mere
man, think they have passed the limit.
While the republicans are shedding
crocodile tears for the American
working man, tel me who pays the ad-
ditional half million dollars tax i'm
posed on stockings?
rs it the woman in the automobile
or the woman at the loom? Is 1T the
parlor boarder at the Waldorf-Astoria
or the chambermaid? Is it the woman
intriguing for a disgraceful alliance
with a foreign duke or the toil-worn
farmers wife? Is it the vir.uous shop
girl making $6 a week to buy protected
tea for her aged parents, or the high
priced ballet dancer parading her silk
stockings at so much per night?"

CONSERVATIVE ESTI.
MATES PLACE GREAT
INCREASE
Indications for a Bumper
Crop Have Never Been
Better Than Now.

Estimates of local shippers and pro-
wheat crop in walla Walla county for
1899 will exceed by almost half that
Of last year, if present favorable eli
matte conditions continue. Reports
from all points in the northwestern
ceareal empire indicate that the wheat
crop will be a record breaker and
should total 80,O00,000 bushels. This
will mean 100000 bushels over the
previous record yield of 63,00,000 bush
els in 1907. While such an enormous
gain seems almost incredible careful
estimates based upon reports from
conservative quarters bear out the
statement.
A local representative Of grain
buying firm yesterday stated to a
Union reporter that the fall crop of
wheat in Walla Walla county would
be almost twice that of last year. This
was due, he said, to the fact that not
only was the acreage much increased
but the climatic conditions have been
more favorable. Spring wheat, ac-
cording to observations based on re-
ports from all parts of the county,
will probably lack five per cent in
point of acreage but will make up IN
the amount Of yield what it lacks in
acreage

prising Eastern Washington, West
ern Idaho and Eastern Oregon, as
we'll as in the Willamette valley re-
port the best crop outlook in two years
The acreage of fall wheat will reach
the 100000 mark easily.
The moisture in the ground is down
from 80 to 10 inches throughout the
Inland Empire and this gives excellent
assurances Of crop of winter wheat
fully equal to the total of last years
crop. According to Walla Walla
man who returned yesterday from a
trip through Idaho the farmers there
are still sowing In this portion of the
state. in many places the sagebrush
IS being cleared up and the ground
ploughed for Spring seeding. Every
available foot of ground the farmers
have is being. put in groin, and 1t
would not be surprising should the
spring wheat acreage reach 2.500,000.
. The abundance of rain and snow
that has visited the entire northwest
makes conditions now a great deal
better than last year. and the ground
is in a much better condition for seed
ing. Recent rains have been very
beneficial to early sown spring wheat

four to seye nincheas in height and is

barley is not particularly large while
there is a substantial increase in the
oat acreage. High prices of grain have
been encouraging the farmers who are
the real plutocrats of the northwest, to
Increase their grain acreage to the
very limit.
Farmers in this part of Washing
ton as well as grain buyers are in
clined to ridicule the government re-
port that there were 100000 bushels
of wheat in the farmers hands on
March 1. The report does not seem to
be borne out at least in this section
where more of the farmers have dis
posed of their wheat. However, there
are a few who are holding for higher
prices. George Welch, is undoubtedly
the largest individual holder of wheat
in Walla Walla county. Speaking of
the grain market yesterday and crop
conditions in general he said that he
had 10000 bushels stored in his ware
house at Eureka, north of this city.
