HOLM ANNOUNCES
CANDIDACY
Will Again Enter the Race
for the Legislature
From Chelan County.

R. F. Holm will again be a can
dldate for the legislature from Che
Ian county. This is the statement
given to the Daily World this morn
ing by Mr.. Holm himself. During
the past several weeks there has
been considerable speculation as to
just what he would do in the mat
ter, some of his friends asserting
that he would not again be a can
didate while others were as conf
dent that ne could be persuaded to
make the race. Mr.. Holm is a con-
sistent standpatter and he was re-
Gently the author of a very severe
structure on Congressman PoindeXter
which was published in the Daily
World, and this in itself gives his
views very clearly on insurgency.
1t is likely that Mr.. Holm Will file
his declaration of candidacy within
few days.
Pitted against him for the nom
ination VIII be ]. H. Chase of Cash
mere, who has already filed his dec
laration and Mr.. Chase enters the
canvass as an avowed insurgent. II
is also expected that there will be
at least one other candidate for this
position.

RAWN'S DEATH BY
SUICIDE
Police Adopt Theory That
r. r. President Caused
His Own Death.

Chicago, July 21.-The Chicago
police dropped the investigation of
the death of Ira G. Rawn, president
of the c. I. & L. railway (Monon
Route) and Herman Schuettler, act
ing chief of police, today said he
was satisfied that death was the re-
suit of suicide. The members of
Rawn's family insist he was killed
by a burglar and continue to employ
detectives in the case.
The investigation of the coroner
is believed to have strengthened the
theory of the police in suicide. A
bullet hole in Rawn's night garment
was carefully examined and its ap-
pearance leads to the suicide belief.
The hole was surrounded by blood
stain in which there are what ap-
pear to be powder marks.

PLANS Of Y.M.C.A.
BUILDING
.
Informal Meeting of Board
of Trustees Was Held
Last Night:

An infJ.n u meeting of the b;'.l
of trustees of the Y. NJ. c. A. was
held last evening for the purpose of
hearing a report of l.. V. Wells and
State Secretary C. w. Wilcox, who
have recently made a tour of this
state and Oregon with the idea of
getting plans and ideas for the Y M.
c. A. building which is to be located
here. Prior to leaving here, Mr.. Wells
drew a pencil sketch of what he con-
ceived to be an ideal building for
this place and in the various locali-
ties he visited he submitted his plans
to the various Y. Nj. G.. A. workers
and compared it with the buildings in
use receiving many valuable ideas
and changing in a considerable man.
ner the original draft. He submit
ted this draft last night to the board
of trustees and it received a very
hearty approval, providing the build
ing can be built with the funds avail
able. Mr.. Wells plan in brief is
this: The building will be 60 feet
wide in the front and it will extend
Ill IL feet, leaving parking strip
s IL feet in front on Orondo avenue
and ) feet on the side fronting Che
Ian avenue as a parking strip which
will be seeded to grass and planted
to shrubbery and vines. The gymna-
SUM will be in the rear of the build
ing, extending across the lot 46x6S
feet inside which is found to be the
average size of gymnasiums.
The first floor will contain a men s
lobby on one side and a boys lobby
on the other side. The main ent-
rance to the building will be from
Orondo avenue and there will be side
entrance from Chelan avenue. The
swimming pool and shower baths will
be in the basement and also lecture
room large enough to accommodate
300 people.
The second floor will be occupied
by class rooms and about ten dormi-
tory rooms.
On the third floor there will be a
hand ball court of the usual size and
about 80 dormitory rooms. There is
also an arrangement for a roof gar
den on the third floor which will be
about 30x48 feet. 1t is designed to
construct building of brick similar
to that used in the new Wenatchee
hotel building
The trustees also took up the mat
ter of securing a general secretary
for the local organization. State Sec
rotary Wilcox had an application
from an eastern man who desired the
position, and it is possible that ar
rangements will be made with him
for the position.

PLUM SH|PM
CONDEMNED
Two Hundred Cases Fom
Toppenish Found Infest-
ed With Worms.

Seattle July 21.-Two hundred
cases of Tragedy plums were de-
stroyed this morning by Horticul-
tural Inspector w. c. Pendleton, be-
ing badly infected with worms. The
plums were part of shipment from
Toppenish that reached the market
yesterday, and the third lot from
that point condemned in the past
week on account of worms.
Nlnety-seven cases of apples from
the same place were taken in hand
by the inspector and fumigated to
rid them of San Jose scale.
Dealers along Western avenue
have been complaining of shipments
of fruits from Toppenish reaching
the market in an unstable condition
on account of poor inspection and
grading by horticulturists. Inspec-
ton is strict in this market, and all
worm infested shipments are total
loss TO the nOrtlCulluTlStS.
Shipping apples with scale infec-
ton also means a loss to the grow
er, as it costs about 20 cents box
for stripping, fumigatIon, regarding
and repacking before the fruit can
go on the market.
Catalogues were cheaper this
morning, selling as low as $3.50 for
fancy stocks. Currants were weak
er, with prices ranging from 1925
to $3.50 a box. Raspberries were
offered at $3.50 a crate.
Apples are beginning to weaken,
with prices ranging from 80 cents
to $3.50 a box for good new fruit.
Extra fancy grades are bringing
higher prices.
Tomatoes are a drug on the mar
ket, and prices ranged all the way
from SO cents to 81 box for Cali
fornias.

terson, to r. A. Moore and Charles
Simpson, of Oklahoma, for $51, 500.
She gave these parties an option on
the property a month ago and the

Mrs. Patterson bought the place
three years ago for SIS, 300, from F.
w. Stein, of Cashmere. She was en-
tirely unacquainted with the orchard
proposition and acted solely on her
own Judgment. Her husband is an
extensive fur trader and was in AL
aska at the time. To World rep
resentative she said today: Il did
not know a Winesap from an orange
when | bought the place. But have
worked very hard and believe that
am now a thorough orchardist. The
property was sold at a sacrifice, but
| need a rest and will travel abroad
for a year or So"
Mrs. Patterson has been the sole
manager of the orchard. Each year
she has shipped the whole crop to
her husband in Alaska, where he has
sold it at top notch prices. He has
already contracted for the sale of
$500 boxes up there this coming fall.
Mr.. Patterson will arrive in Seat
tie in September and join his wife
for a tour of the world, which will
require IS months First they will
sail to South America, stopping al
nearly all the coast points during the
winter, but spending the most time
at Buenos Ayres. In the spring they
will journey to France and thence
over the continent. At Bremen a
visit will be made with Mr.. Patter-
sons aged mother. In the fall they
will sail through the Suez canal on
the return towards home. After a
sojourn in the Holy Land, stops will
be made at various points in India
China, Japan, the Philippines, Aus
tralia and the Hawaiian Islands.
1t is Mrs. Patterson's purpose to
make the upper Wenatchee valley
her permanent home. She intends to
buy ten or twenty acres more where
she will again settle down after the
trip around the globe.

REPORTS CR|PPEN
CAPTURED
Murderer and His Affinity
Supposed to Have Been
Taken in Wales.

Cardiff, Wales, July 21.-The
story is printed here that DR.. Grip
pen, sought for the murder of his
wife, was arrested here and is being
held for the London authorities. 1t
is said also that Nine. Leneve, with
whom it is charged Crippen fed, was
captured at Langrane, near here. The
report is unverified.
London, July 21.-Late this after
noon the Scotland Yard authorities
are sending out thousands of des-
criptive pamphlets in English and
French, offering reward for the ap-
prehension of Crippen, the supposed
murderer of Belle Gilmore, his wife.
London, July 21.-Scotland Yard
officials have no confirmation to-
night of the story emanating from
Venron-les-Bains, France, that a man
whom the French police suspected of
being Dr. Hawley H. Crippen regis
tered at hotel in the French town
under the name of Tarbot, last Sun
day, and who hastily fed in the d.
rection of the Spanish frontier.
Still, while the London police have
been searching diligently for Grip
pen and his stenographer, Ethel
Clara Leneve, since the two disap-
peared from the Crippen home at
Hilldrop Crescent, July 9, they do not
discredit the possibility that the doc
tor escaped into Spain.

METHODS Of BIG
PACKERS
Secretary Of New York Con-
Germ Breaks Down and
Gives Whole Story.

Chicago, July 21.-After defying
the government attorneys and
stubbornly refusing to testify, Moses
H. Joseph of New York, capitulated
in the federal grand jury room We'd

Packing company, the so-called beef
trust" strangled competition by CO.

three hours. At first he refused, it
is said, to answer question after

Bitterly complaining of the treat
ment he was receiving, he at last

Wednesday. They are said to have
