pated
Some of the money was sub
scribed for installments payments.

SHIPMENTS CAUSE
COMPLAINT
Western Ave. Commission
Men Say Yakima Fruit is
in Unstable Condition.

Seattle, July 13.-Dealers on
Western avenue are complaining OF
the condition in which fruit ship
ments from the Yakima country are
reaching the local market. Much OF
the fruit is held up by the horticul-
tural inspector as a result of care
less packing by growers, according
to wholesalers, and has to be re-
packed.
The chief fault is found with ap-
pies, peaches and plums. Many ship
ments of apples are affected with
San Jose scale and peaches and
plums reach the market in a wormy
condition. Inspection of all fruits
is rigid here and consignments must
be in first class shape to successful
ly pass.
Dealers say that the wormy fruit
coming here is due to careless in
spection by growers who should
throw out all peaches and plums
which have been stung by moths, as
fruit in this condition is bound to
develop worms and be condemned
by the fruit inspector in Seattle
Apples infected with scale also are
held up and fumigated before the
local inspection office will permit
them to go on the market.
Such conditions are bound to af-
feet the sale of consignments, say
wholesalers, and materially cut down
receipts by the time the fruit has
been sorted and repaeked.
There was a brisk market along
Western avenue this morning with
a ready sale for fresh fruits. Wa
termelons are selling at cents and
deciduous fruits are in brisk demand
all along the line. Apricots were
marked from Is cents to 80 cents
crate today.
Heavy express shipments from the
Yakima country came in in the
morning, but were fairly well clean
ed up by afternoon.
Grated new potatoes from the
| Yakima country are a novelty and
sell at 81 a crate of about 100
| pounds.
New sweet water grapes are an.
other novelty and are quoted at 81
a 20-pound crate.
A car of cantaloupes came in yes.
| terday, but a heavy demand kept
! prices at 81 for choice stocks.

Bryce Sees Knox; Pot Is Boiling.
Washington, D. c., July 10
James Bryce, the British ambassa-
dor, conferred with Secretary Knox
today on the subject of the Nicara-
guam problem. The attitude of
Great Britain is satisfactory to this
country, and it seems probable that
a hard and fast alliance with Eng
land will be the ultimate outcome
of the present negotiations. Ger
many is said to be encouraging Jap
an in a policy of interference, but
the British influence wholly offsets
the efforts of the kaiser's govern
ment, and the situation is well with
in the control of the United States
and England. 1t is broadly admit
ted by Secretary Knox that the Mic
araguan question has become acute
and developments are expected.

Wenatchee Avenue Sewer.
At a special meeting of the coun-
Gil held last week, protests were
made against the depth of the We
natchee avenue sewer at the corner
of Wenatchee and Yakima streets
On account of the fact that the sew
er did not drain the Miller building
permission was given Phillip and
Emil Miller to connect with the Co.
lumbia street sewer. The Millers
own Is feet frontage on which the
Elman hotel is located and also own
SO feet which is vacant. In lieu of
the connection with the Columbia
street sewer the Millers were given
exemption by Engineer Ward on the
Wenatchee avenue sewer assessment
The owners of other corners on We
natchee and Yakima will also be OBJ
liged to connect with the Columbia
street sewer in order to get sewer
accommodations. They have not re-
fused to pay their assessment, but
insist that if they do pay the assess
ment that the Miller property must
not be exempt from this sewer as
sessment The matter has been re-
ferred to the street committee, city
engineer and city attorney for some
possible solution.
The Wenatchee avenue sewer was
laid ten feet below the street, from
Kittitas to Orondo, in order to meet
and join the old sewer extending
along the avenue northward. Busi-
ness Easements have an average
depth of from to 10 feet.
AS a city ordinance requires a fall
in all sewer pipes of u inch to the
foot, there is no other way to install
a toilet at the rear of basement
than to mount it few feet above
the floor level.
For instance, if a toilet is INSTALL
ed at the rear of a 100 foot base
ment, 165 feet of piping is necessary
to reach the sewer in the, middle of
the street. A quarter inch fall
amounts to 165 times "A inch, or
Al inches, that the toilet would have
to be raised above the floor of a
ten foot basement. In this case the
piping must be conducted above the
floor along the walls of the build
ing.
In the case of spring being found
when digging a cellar for a ten foot
basement, the problem of draining
the spring would have to be met.
1t will be remembered that a spring
was found at the corner of Wenat-
chez and Palouse when the basement
for the Olympia hotel was excavat-
ed.

JAPAN MAY LOSE SUP
PORT Of BRITISH KING
Monarch of England Takes Hand and Declares for the
Time Honored Policy of Non Interference in Amer
lean Affairs Whitelaw Reid Holds a Long Confer
ence Germany Anxious for Trouble.

London, July 13.-Whitelaw Reid,
the American ambassador, held a
long conference with King George
today and the following statement
was authorized Immediately after
wards:
His majesty the king has taken
a deep interest in the Nicaraguan
imbroglio, because of the fact that
the Monroe doctrine may become in
volved. Great Britain will adhere
to the time-honored policy of nom
interference in American affairs.
and will discourage any attempt to
form European and Oriental en-
tente cordial"
Everyone familiar with British
politics realizes the full purport of
this remarkable statement. It
means, in plain language, that Great
Britain will sever its alliance with
Japan the moment that country con-
summaries an understanding with
Germany.
While in London on his recent
visit, Prince Fushimi, the Japanese
imperial envoy, let it be known that
Japan was constrained to establish
cordial relations with Germany,
though not relaxing the mikado's re-
gard for the Anglo-Japanese alli-
ance.
Germany has vast interests in the
Argentine republic and has not only
acquired 10000 square miles of ter
ritory for colonization purposes, Pat
has completed negotiations for
similar foothold in Brazil. This is
regarded as a direct slap at the Am
erican Monroe doctrine, which was
first promulgated by George Can
ming, a British statesman, who fore
saw complications in which Great
Britain would be compelled to form
an Anglo-American alliance in order
to preserve the British empire.

CONDUCTOR HORS-
FAIL IMPLICATED
Freight Conductor Who
Figured in Wreck Here
Followed by Hoodoo.
PROXY EXAMINATION
Long List of Wrecks on This
Division Since yelling
ton Disaster.

For the fourth time in six months
Conductor Horsfal, who was in
charge of the freight that caused the
accident here on June Is, is in trou-
Bile. The railroad company is hold
ing him and his hind brakeman re-
sponsible for the death of ]. ].
Barnes, the yardmaster at Wilson
Creek who was killed last Friday.
Friends of Horsfal do not think
that the man has been criminally
negligent at any time, but they ad-
NIT that he seems to be having a
streak of ill-luck.
1t is with the utmost difficulty
that inside railroad information can
be obtained as the railroad men are
not takers, and positive information
can only be secured by bringing the
employees before examining boards.
There have been a large number
of wrecks along the Great Northern
between Seattle and Spokane since
the great slide at Wellington, but
only partial list can be given, as
data on the subject is not to be had.
Various Wrecks.
Occurring between Seattle and
Spokane since the Wellington slide
is the following partial list of wrecks
and accidents:
At Milan, about the time of the
slide, a fireman, named Miller, was,
killed.
In Spokane switchman was
killed in the yards.
There was a head-on collision at
Galeno.
Switching in the yards at Odessa
caused a collision.
Train No. was wrecked a Har-
rington by colliding with a freight
that was out of air.
The recent accident at Wilson
Creek caused the death of one good
man.
At Trinidad there was a wreck in
which Engineer Haggat was hurt
about the head.
In the collision here in June two
men were killed.
Two passengers and the hind
brakeman were killed in a wreck at
Peshastin.
Engineer Halstead was badly hurt
while switching at Leavenworth.
Part of his cab was scraped away by
car too close to the switch beside
his enginA
A runaway car from the Cascade
Tunnel killed a brakeman at Berne.
Train No. 20 received some dam
ages recently by meeting a freight
unexpectedly, and there was a slight
wreck between Troy and Spokane.
Examinations by Proxy.
The practice of taking examina-
lions by proxy is a novel one that
seems to be in vogue on many roads
and to some extent is done on the
Great Northern. When regular
railroad man who cannot pass a re-
quired examination wants a job he
gets some boomer. who can. to take
the examination in his stead. Then
the real applicant must work under
the boomers name. If he should be
discharged, the boomer is forever
barred from working on the same
road, while the real offender goes
scot free. This system will be a
surprise to the public, but seems to
be well understood by railroad men.
By it deaf man, or one with de-
fective sight, can remain in the COM
pany's employ.

Mr.. Miles lived in Newport News
about eight years and was well and
favorably known. He came here with
his parents when a boy and fer d
time attended the city pubic schools.
He accepted position with the
