HIGH PRICES MAINTAINED BY
CALIFORNIA COMBINE is THE
CHARGE OF AUTHORITIES
STATE SENATE IN ACTION.

San Francisco, March 10.-Imme-

Should the actions be brought, the
members of the alleged fish trust will

During the investigation testimony

ALLOWING FOREST FIRES TO

ING LAST SUMMER-CORONER
TO START PROBE.

Seattle, March 10.-As soon as all
the bodies have been extricated from
the avalanche debris at Wellington,
Coroner James c.. Snyder, of King
county, will hold a searching in
quiry in this city to discover the
causes of the disaster.
Guests at Scenic Hot Springs hotel
will be asked to testify concerning
the statement that the Great North

the mountain sides last summer with
out making any effort to extinguish
them. These fires, it is alleged, de-
stroyed growth which in past years
prevented snowslides.
Coroner Snyder will inquire into
the statement that on February %
meeting of the passengers was held
and representatives of the Great
Northern were asked that guides be
sent to take the passengers down the
mountain. All the passengers who
attended this meeting are dead ex-

THEY BECOME SMITTEN WITH AN
EAST SIDE NEW YORK WOMAN
WANTED TO CALL ON HER

New York, March 10.-Mrs. Alma
w. Powell, musician, linguist, social
reformer and suffragette, played a
mean trick on susceptible men at her
home in Brooklyn.
She invited to her home Mary Cor
rigan, a young woman from the East
Side, dressed her in her most beau
tiful gowns and bedecked her with
jewels, then introduced her to a
number Of wealthy folks, one of them
being a Count and another million
aire.
These two men were smitten with
the woman and sought permission to
call upon her at her home.
The experiment, Mrs. Powell says,
shows wealth and false pride form
the social barrier.

Omaha in the Wenatchee Valley.

oulhI1h In tAc w ClAdtShCO t0llCys
A. L. Morris yesterday received
letter from Thomas Albert Shacdle-
ton, of Kamloops, B. C.. 1t was ad
dressed to Omaha, Wenatchee Val
ley, U. S. A." The letter was writ
ten for the purpose of compliment
ing Mr.. Morris on his success in Sc
curing a check from King Edward
of England for some boxes of ap-
pies purporting to have been sent by
Mr.. Morris to England's ruler. The
letter, while so ambiguously adj
dressed, came through to Mr.. Morris
without any delays.
The following Is paragraph
printed originally in an Omaha paper
which has caused Mr.. Morris con-
siderable notoriety. The whole thing
was a hoax devised by a friend of his
at Omaha:
unlike the president of the Unit
ed States, who accepts Thanksgiv-
ing turkey, and has no rule against
receiving such gifts, King Edward
of England pays for what he eats,
according to the experience Of an
Omahan, who has just received a
check for a barrel of apples he tried
to give the king. A. L. Morris, OF
Omaha, owns orchards and is a ma
tive of England, and when he pro-
duced what he believed to be the
best apples in the world he sent a
barrel to his majesty's steward at
Windsor castle. When Mr. Morris
returned home this week from a trip
he found a letter from Windsor cas-
tie He expected testimonial as to
the quality of his apples, but he got
a check that staggered him. 1t was
for $40, and the precise letter stated
that the king did not eat gifts. AS
the result of the sale of a gift to the
king, the apple growers of the We
natchee valley are expecting a boom
in the British apple trade. If King
Edward thinks the apples are worth
$40 per barrel, the apple growers be-
lieve they can sell their crop in Eng
land

practically assured that the post
office will enter the second class
in the near future. For the quar-
ter ending December 81 last the

than sufficient, it will be observ-
ed, if the same average were
maintained for a year, to bring
the receipts over $4,000. the
amount necessary for changing
from third to second class. The
receipts for the quarter ending
March 81 were 50, $40, a slight
increase over the preceding quar-
ter. The receipts for March
were about $40 more than the re-
ceipts for December, which
month was record breaker up
to that time. The advance has
been steady, and it bids fair to
be maintained. Some time ago
the Postofice Department at
Washington wrote to the office
here to know what was the rea-
son of the increase, seeming to
think that the desire to enter the
second class had resulted in hus-
ting for business. The only rea-
son for the increase is increase
in business. And the increase
has been steady. Watch Lum-
berton grow and enter the Sec
