At a meeting Of the league officials
last Friday night in the National Guard
armory the various committees made re-
ports, one of which was that the grounds
would be put in first-class condition by
next Wednesday. The schedule commit
tee on games reported a new schedule to
be printed with score sheet for each
game. Another important announcement
by the grounds committee was that a
score board will be erected tomorrow,
informed Of the standing of the teams
playing. The names Of the teams sched-
uled and the dates OF the next game are
also to be announced on the board. The
work of Umpire Wood came in for some
discussion. and 1t was agreed that he is
handling the indicator very satisfactory.

of the Interior team there will be no
games scheduled for Saturdays. These
days will be left open for postponed
games.
The Navy team appears much stronger
this season than last despite the fact
that it has dropped both games played
| SO far. The dropping Of the War De-
partment team has helped the sailors to
several good players. and they are look
ed for to win many games. II this team
comes up to expectations the league will
| undoubtedly be about the strongest In
the city. as all of the other clubs are
well organized and playing good ball.
The Commissioners team is showing
real class this season, having beaten
last years pennant winners. the Aggies,
and Post Office. Much OF the credit for
these two victories belongs to Robinson,
| their pitcher. This boy has plenty OF
steam and a good nerve, which goes to
make up good artist.
1t is a we'll known fact that Callahan.
shortstop for the Post Office team. is one
of the best fielders in the amateur
lea CUES because Of the fact that he quail
fed and played such good game for
Georgetown University at short the past
two sea sons. But he is having his trou-
bles down at the White Lot simply be-
cause he has been used to a skin dia-
mond, and the one on the lot is covered
with grass and rough.
Kraft, catcher for Post Office. has not
had an accident as yet this season. Won
derful. He is better known as Hard
Luck Kraft" because he receives so many
bumps in a season. Kraft is a fine
backstop and is always a great loss To
the team whenever,he is laid up with an
injury or otherwise missing from the
lineup.
The game scheduled for the Commerce
and Labor and Commissioner teams for
this afternoon has been postponed on ac-
count of the High School drill which
takes place on the White Lot elipse. This
game will probably be played OF Satur-
day.

HAS REVISED VIEWS
ABOUT NORTH YAKIMA
Man Here Sixteen Years Ago Is
Willing to Admit There Is
a Difference.

Enthusiastic about North Yakima is
w. j. Moulton of the Stacy Fruit
company of Fargo. N. d. Mr.. Moul-
ton was here Sunday and had "a look
at the place from which all the cars
of fruit come" He had look at the
tracks, the warehouses, the town and
the orchards and then he went away
back and readjusted the opinion he
had carried of this town for the past
sixteen years. Mr.. Moulton was here
in 1894 on a search for potatoes. He
hadn't been here since and though he
had handled a lot of Yakima fruit
he had failed to realize what a change
the years had made. Last year when
Fred Eberle of the Yakima County
Horticultural union was in Dakota
and telling about this county Mr..
Moulton used to sit in a corner and
laugh. He admitted on Sunday that
the laugh Is on him.
The movement of fruit growers this
way has begun e. Frank Read of
Grand Forks, N. D., and John Nix of
the firm of John Nix & Co. of New
York have also been here this week
They are making their spring rounds
of the fruit producing sections and
are sizing up the Yakima situation
Others who are attracted here are
more or less numerous army of agents
for spray material, a black leaf to-
bacco man from the far south being
one of the number who recommended
his black leaf because 1t kills the
slugs, among other things.

TWO ENTIRE TRAINS AND THREE LOCOMOTIVES

ers and undertakers, left Everett at 8
o'clock tonight. Reports received
here tonight say the Great Northern
power house, which furnishes cleo
trio power to operate trains through
the tunnel, depot and water tank
were swept away by the avalanche
and that the railroad boarding house
is badly wrecked A number of the
dead and injured are railroad men
and residents at Wellington. Passen-
gers on the Spokane express have been
eating at boarding houses and nearby
cottages but have returned to the
Pullmans to spend the nights.
Many Passengers i'm Debris.
Two days ago several passengers,
fearing a catastrophe of this kind,
asked O'Neill to have the train moved
back into the tunnel, where 1t would
be protected. O'Neill Is said to have
declared the train perfectly safe on
the siding al Wellington and decided
to leave 1t there. Reports as to the
number Of passengers marooned on
the train vary. The railroad COM
people on the train, but men who
were urea OF the uelay ana walked
over the snow to Skykomish, where
they could get a train, say there are
more than sixty people on board.
; Latest messages from Wellington
are that none of the passengers have
been identified. From reports re-
ceived at the Great Northern offices
here it is evident that the greatest loss
of life was among the passengers on
the Spokane local.

junction Restraining the North
Yakima and Valley Railroad.

The North Yakima and Valley
railway is defendant in suit insti-
tuted by G. s. Clute and wife of
Zillah. The compliments claim dam
ages have been sustained by them

road company in its right of way
through the town Of Zillah. At the
time of the first survey was made the
route projected over a lot owned by
the plaintiffs, which lot was later ex-
changed for another across the street
Plaintiffs further allege that they are
doing a merchandise business and
that after the trade was made the
company again changed it's line. run

they reside at present and that II the

MRS. LYDIA REED
CITED TO ACCOUNT
Charged With Incompetency, Mis-
management and False Ac-
counting of Estate.

In a remarkable petition alleging,
mismanagement, misrepresentation, of
funds, negligence and incompetency
as executrix in the estate of the late
Walter j., Reed, his sister, Isabel
Steiner, asks the superior court Mon
day for an accounting of the estate
from Lydia Mcmillan Reed, wife of
the deceased
heVcosaplaipt alleges that none of
the beneficiaries of the will have
ever been paid and that none of the
debts owing by the estate have been
liquidated up to this time. 1t is also
alleged that the defendant in an in
ventory filed has purposely withheld
some of the assets of said estate and
has sold and appropriated property
sold to her own use. The complaint
states that at the time of her mar
riage to Reed which ceremony took
place a year before his death, the de-
PENDANT had no property of her own
and that no community property had
been acquired up to the time of her
husbands death.
The complaint further states that
the executrix has steadfastly refused
in the will and in various ways has
ignored said legatees. The petitioner
states that the interest of all persons
in the estate has suffered great dam
ages and will suffer more through the
negligence and mismanagement set
forth in the complaint.
In addition to the above allegations,
the petitioner states that claims to
the amount of several thousands of
dollars have been presented for pay
ment but that none of them have up
to this time been liquidated and that
a full and true account of the value
of the estate will show that it is not
sufficient in value to pay the legal
debts and the legacies mentioned in
the will.
A paragraph in the complaint
states that though year has passed
since the death of her husband the
widow has failed to decorate or care
for the grave of her husband and that
any such care that has been given
was at the expense Of D. c. Reed.
A clause in the will reads:
at is my will and desire for the
executrix, in selling property belong
ing to my estate of the value of more
than five hundred dollars, to confer
with and consult the benef1caries
David c. Reed and Isabelle Steiner
regarding the price for which the
property shall be sold and the amount
agreed upon by majority of said
beneficaries shall be the price for
which the property shall be sold. If,
however, my said, executrix does sell
property of greater value than five
hundred dollars without consulting
with said two beneficares they are
to raise no objections to such sales. ]
direct that my said executrIx shall
have five years, if she so desires. in
which to pay the amounts due the
legites herein and to settle the estate.
Judge Preble cited the defendant to
appear and show cause why she
should not give an accounting of the
estate in question.
Englehart & Riggs are attorneys for
the plaintiff.

POTATO PRICE WILL FALL
BEFORE SPRING ADVANCE
Ranchers Are Preparing to Open
Their Pits and Put Large Supply
of Spuds on the Market.

Potatoes, which are now in fair
supply and bringing the growers
from $40 to $12 per ton. will be
cheaper before they become more ex-
pensive. The season of the year is
coming when the ranchers will be
able to open their pits and get at the
supplies stored last fall. According
to all reports there Is a considerable
quantity of spuds in the pits More
than enough for the demand as 1t at
present appears. 1t is the opinion of
those interested in the business that
there will be a decline in price before
1t stiffens up prior to the last sales of
the season. There Is considera BILE
activity at this time in the potato
business.

P|NCHO1 HAS
BIG SURPRISE
Charge of Ballinger's Unfaithful-
ness Based on Partners
Letter.
JUDGE RONALD'S LETTER
BASIS OF ATTACK
Secretary Wilson Is Badly
Tangled in Testimony Before
Investigating Committee-Taft
Warns Against CLAWS.

WASHINGTON. March 1.-The ex-
pected clash between Clifford Pinchot
and Secretary Wilson over the dis
puted question as to whether the Sec
permission to write to Senator Dolli-
yer. which resulted in the Pinchot
dismissal. came today before the Bal
linger- Pinchot investigation commit
tee.
Pinchot declared he had discussed
the matter at length with Wilson and
that he understood his superior officer
had given him express permission to
write to Dolliver. Wilson Immediately
took the stand and asserted that while
he had given Pinchot permission to
write Dolliver concerning depart
mental affairs he never did and never
would have given him permission to
write Letter criticizing the president
of the United tSates.
Wilson Becomes Confused.
Under cross examination conducted
almost wholly by democratic members
of the committee. Secretary Wilson
was uncertain Just what did pass be-
tween himself and the forester and
became somewhat mixed as to Just
what letters the committee referred
to in their rapid fire of questions. The
secretary repeatedly said he never saw
or heard of letter Pinchot wrote
until it was read in the senate. Pin
chot declared he and Wilson went so
far as to discuss the executive order
issued by Taft forbidding subordinates
of various departments giving infor-
nation to congressman and added that
the secretary said: You and / will
have no trouble about that ORDER"
Admitting his memory failed him.
as to certain points Wilson always
came back to the statement that he
never under any circumstances would
have given Pinchot permission to
write a letter that caused his retire
ment from the service.
Urged PinchOt to Desist.
The secretary said he urged Pin
chot not to carry out his purpose to
blanket" a message from the presi-
dent by sending one to Dolliver. But"
persisted the counsel for Pinchot, "if
Pinchot was only permitted to write
about departmental matters. how
could you have thought his letter
would blanket the presidents mes
sage?" II don't know that was Pin
chot's idea
Pinchot denied he had been en-
Uttered by dismissal which he con-
sidered unjustified. He denied also
there had been a specific movement
to discredit Ballinger. He added,
however, he and former Secretary

Garfield, CLAWS and others are con-
cerned in a movem ent for conserva-
ton of the natural resources and
that they regard Ballinger as one of
the greatest enemies of that move
ment.
PinchOt Springs Surprise.
The surprise of the day was when
Pinchot announced that he had based
his charge that Ballinger had been
guilty of making false statements to
the president on a letter written by
]. T Ronald, former law partner of
Ballinger's, to DR.. T. Lyman Abbott
Previous to this, Pinchot had made
an announcement that he would not
force the committee to decide whether
he should be allowed to quote con-
versations with Taft or to present a
letter from Taft to Pinchot written
in September last.
This letter said CLAWS was disn-
genious and warned Pinchot against
taking up Claws cause and expressed
regret that Pinchot did not have the
same confidence in Ballinger that the
president did. Taft concluded his
letter with the statement that con-
troversies between departments In
Washington must cease.

he and Mrs. Hesse feared had been

buried the town. The telegram mere

bring comfort where uneasiness had
existed since the first reports of the
accident;

These few may possibly run the total
up to two thousand acres. the amount

amount applied for" said he, "as I
