MUCH PACKAGE
FREIGHT MOVING
BOUND BUSINESS, HOW
EVER, is LIGHT OWING TO
THE SCARCITY OF GOODS
FOR EXPORT.

From the various steamship offices
excellent conditions are reported with
regard to west bound package freight
but only fair or medium with regard
10 the east bound business, says the
Duluth News Tribune. opinion diff
fers as to the cause, but the same con-
dition was reported from every Office
one of the reasons assigned for the
situation Is the fact that there Is no
export business. Last year 1t was
brisk at this season, and this is re-
garded as one of the principal sources
Of profit to the package freighter.
There is practically no -four being
shipped east this year, and this is also
one of the contributory factors. This
is generally believed to be due to sew
cral causes. one is the constantly in
creasing consumption of the product
in the far west and southwest thus
taking a large per cent. of the output
of the northwestern mills in that d.
rection instead Of by the usual chan
Eels over the lakes to the sea. IL is
also claimed that the number of -four
mills in the east is being constantly
increased, and that section is less de-
pendent for its supplies on the west
ern mills than formerly. Both around
Buffalo and New York new mills are
constantly being put up.
Flour is one of the principal items
of the package freighters, and when
the wheat is shipped whole and
ground i'm the east a big hole is cut
I'm their business.
The west-bound package freight
business is considered as good or a
trifle better than in former years.

LIFE
Of GOV. BENSON
Man in California Has
Grievance Against Elk
ecutive of Oregon.

Auburn, Calf, Sept. 27.-On re-
quest of the district attorneys office
at Santa Clara county, H. w. Will
liams was arrested here yesterday
on a charge of threatening the life
of Governor Benson of Oregon.
Governor Benson, who has been
spending some time in San Jose, in
formed the authorities there that
Williams had frequently threatened
his life in letters and kilograms and
that he was insane on the subject
that the authorities of Oregan were
prosecuting him with X-rays and
electrical waves.
The Oregon authorities assert that
Williams is a dangerous maniac and
say that if he can not be committed
to California asylum they will ask
for his return to their jurisdiction.
Sheriff McAulay informed them
that Williams had acted in ration
al manner since coming to Placer
county and that he can not be AK
amined here for his sanity.

FAKE PICTURE MEN
Oriental Art Company Has No TrOu-
BILE in Finding Gullible Public.

Fake picture concerns selling pur-
ported high class oil paintings of
beautiful" enlarged pictures always
find a ready market for their goods.
The Oriental Art company of some
where is this week delivering orders
for oil paintings. The customers are
receiving cheap prints on paper
which have been pasted over cheese
cloth Notwithstanding the fact that
the Daily World has for years sought
to induce it's readers not to purchase
from the itinerant canvassers. yet
these fake concerns always catch a
very gullible public. The canvassers
go from house to house and often
times deals are made with the wo-
men of the household. Later on an
other agent delivers the goods and
invariably the stuff is not what 1t
was represented to be, yet contract
has been made and payment has to
to be made The concern working
in the valley now is one of the worst
fakes which ever caught the public.

of the crop has been sold. In two
weeks it is predicted that all of the
best fruit will have changed hands.
This is almost a record for quickness.
as the buying movement has only
been on for a little more than two
weeks. The first of September the
deal was deadlocked and the first OF
October will probably see the crop
largely sold.
Favorable weather this week
pushed the fruit further toward ma
turity and it is now apparent that
all kinds of winter apples will have
to be picked several weeks earlier
than usual. In size and quality the
Baldwins. Kings and Greetings are
fine, being superior to anything
grown here in years. In fact, some
growers and dealers say they have
seen orchards which contain the fin
est red fruit ever produced in west
ern New York 1t is because of this
fine quality that outside dealers have
been paying such high prices. They
figure that If Baldwins and other va
rieties were worth $3.50 to SO last
year, with the crop here larger, they
are certainly worth So to $3.50 this
year, with the quality better and the
quantity smaller.
