Baltimore. April 1.-THE heavy rain

most Of whom were scheduled for strong
workouts which would put the finishing

remarked that not so much fast work

fact that most Of the horses have come

have postponed the winding up until the

chance to witness some OF the best
cross-country work ever shown on any

AUTOMATIC ALARM
WORKS FINE

Fire in the high school yesterday
morning was ON the program but did
not occur. The fire alarm said there
was a fire, and Walter Olive frantic
ally notified the fire chief. He and
the chief and the janitor of the
school rivalled COINS Indians doing
stunts around the bases in their eff
forts to reach the school in time to
save it. However, there was no fire,
and the principal work of the chief
seemed to be to shut off the alarm
so that the neighbors could sleep.
He found a number of switches and
he turned them all. That made the
bell ring louder. In his frantic eff
forts to stop the bell he tangled the
combination more and more. Final
ly a bright idea occurred. He went
below to the battery room and got
to the roots of things. 1t was SIM
pie matter to pull the wires out of
the batteries and the chiefs bright
idea and ready hands soon had the
building once more somnoling in a.
state of inhocuous desuetude.

be great deal of travel between
these points.
While Mr.. Costello gave no posi-
tive assurance of an improvement in
the service, yet the committee feels
satisfied that it's efforts will bear
fruit.
The attention of Mr.. Costello was
also called to the prophecy of Fruit
Inspector Darlington that there will
be some $500 carloads of fruit pro-
duced in this district this year. He
seemed surprised at the figures and
stated that if that was the case it
would be up to the Great Northern
to get busy in order to furnish equip
ment to handle this crop.
The committee secured the promise
of Mr.. Costello that he would return
here in time 20 go on the excursion
next Wednesday to Mansfield.

markets from that city. He con-
siders very valuable the experience
that he has gained in his two recent
trips to England with Wenatchee ap-
pies. He has found out that some
of the varieties grown here are not
adaptible to the English market and
another year he will not attempt to
take anything but what is strictly
suitable for the English trade. He
states that his year the English mar
ket has thoroughly satisfied itself as
to the merits of the Wenatchee val
ley as a fruit growing district. With
the English the name Wenatchee
signifies prominence in apple grow
ing and this year, Mr.. Edmund states,

OF WENATCHEE
MANAGER OF GREAT NORTH
ERN OF IMPROVED SERVICE.

M. ]. Costello, traffic manager of
the Great Northern, arrived here
about half past ten o'clock last night
from Mansfield. A delegation of
Wenatchee citizens met Mr.. Costello
in his private car last night and
urged the needs of a better train
service for Wenatchee.
Several weeks ago a commercial
club committee was instructed to
draw up resolutions setting forth the
need of a motor service between
Mansfield and Wenatchee and Eph-
rata and Leavenworth. This matter
was called to Mr.. Costello's atten-
ton last night, but he stated that
at this time it would not be possible
to put on the motor service, owing
to the fact that the Great Northern
has no equipment of this kind. Mr..
Costello, however, assured the COM
mittee that the company has under
consideration additional passenger
train service between Mansfield and
Wenatchee and the additional train
put ON that line might possibly be
run on through to Leavenworth.
Furthermore, the railway has under
consideration the installation of ad-
ditional service between Wilson
Creek and Spokane to satisfy the de-
mand of the patrons. but this SER
vice has never paid the railway COM
pany The committee attempted to
show Mr. Costello that the conditions
were entirely different between Will
son Creek and Wenatchee. The coun-
try is more thickly settled and from
the fact that great deal of Wenat-
chez capital is being used in the
exploitation of the Ephrata-Moses
lake section there would of necessity

The banquet will commence
promptly at O'Clock and will be
substantial enough that it will not
be necessary to take the usual 6

Just how the pay for this BAN
quet is to be provided has not been
fully determined as yet. 1t is one
of the rules of the new board of di-
rectors that no funds shall be raised
for any purposes at any of the gen.
eral meetings, but the members OF
the Reds are feeling the responsible
ity of taking care of this debt and
are digging up to the captain of the
team and it is likely that this will
be taken care of through voluntary
contributions.
1t is requested that as many OF
the new members Of the club as
possible will be out at this ban
uuet. There were several hundred
new members added during the re-
cent campaign and these are es-
pecially requested to be on hand

FOUROF TAFF'S
CABINET
TO QUIT
HAS ROOSEVELT SENT AN ULTI-
MATUM TO Taft. II. WILL
PLAY POWER BEHIND THE
THRONE"

Washington, April THE Back
from Elba" slogan has given way to
a new one, and today politicians are
whispering of a power behind the
throne" movement. 1t is rumored in
political circles here that Theodore
Roosevelt is to take a place in the
administration.
Efforts to trace the movement, it is
said, have led to some startling re-
suits. 1t is declared that the trail
leads close to the White House.
President Taft refuses to affirm or
deny that Roosevelt is to take a place
in the administration, but he has al
lowed the impression to be given out
that though Roosevelt is far away
in miles, he has not been so very far
away in spirit, and that Taft has been
fully as well informed as to the views
and actions of the former president as
the African hunter has of affairs at
the national capitol.
Senator Elihu Root of New York,
former secretary of state under
Roosevelt, close political and per-
sonal friend of the former presi-
dent and friend of Taft, according
to another rumor, has been asked
by Roosevelt to meet him before he
returns to America. Root refuses
to discuss this rumor The politi-
clans, however, declare that if Root
is to go abroad, and is to discuss
politics with the colonel, and If the
power behind the throne move
ment is true, it would not take long
to decide who had been chosen to
arrange final details.
That important changes are to
take place in the organization Of the
Taft cabinet, no politician here de-
MES. It has been rumored that
Roosevelt has sent an ultimatum to
Taft in which he asked that GER
tain changes be made or he would
withhold his endorsement of the
Taft administration. The rumor set
Washington afire. Since it has been
afloat so many other rumors have
been in the air. that politicians de-
clare that changes in the Taft cabi-
net are certainly contemplated. Just
what they are to be is not known,
but it is believed that the type of
,aen who helped carry out the Roose-
velt policies under Roosevelt will be
given cabinet assignments. The
names of Hitchcock, Macveagh, Ball
niger and Dickinson are connected
with the rumors that certain cabinet
officers are to retire.

MILLION IN
COTTON PIT

Chicago, April flames A Pat
ten, king of the wheat pit, lost for
tune in the cotton market yesterday.
1t is estimated that his losses will
be at least 100000, and may reach
s1,50O,000.
It is reported a combine of specu-
lators in Liverpool and New York
were against him, and the heavy
rains in the south are said to have
caused an enormous loss to Patten
and his crowd.
The price of cotton declined one
cent a pound during the day, and a
further decline is expected. Patten
is said to have had 100000 bales on
hand. If this is true, it would indi-
cate a loss of approximately $780,
900.
News that a shipment of 5000
bales of cotton from Liverpool to
New York was made last Friday
caused a furry in the Patten crowd
This indicated that the millionaire
Spectator will have more to take
care of than he bargained for.
The sentiment in the city today is
that the backbone of the bull market
has been broken. If this is so, local
spectators say the losses of the Pat
ten crowd may reach 100000 ulti-
mately.

William Edmund has returned
from a six months trip to England,
where he went last fall with $4,000
boxes of Wenatchee valley apples.
He stated that his trip was finan-
cial success but is very glad to get
back into the Wenatchee valley. He
states that during the six months
sojourn on the British Isles he saw
but two days of sunshine.
Mr.. Edmund says that while he
is going to handle fruit for the Eng
lish market next year that he will
not personally take it to England.
He has associated with him two
wealthy English dealers and the COM
pany will be prepared to handle
fruit on large scale.

Russell, the star pitcher who has

signed up to pitch for Wilson Creek
this season. He tried out with the
Indians last Sunday and did so we'll
that Joe Cohn and Percy Scheble
both thought about securing him.
However, Wilson Creek offered the
most and carried off the plum be-
fore Messrs. Cohn and Scheble knew
what had happened. Russell played
with the Virginia Polytechnics two
years ago and was with the Paris
Illinois league team last year. He
is a pitcher and a fielder both, and
is going to enliven the Wilson Creek
team with some real eastern class.

PRESENT CHOATE A DIAMOND
Jewel Token of Appreciation for Gal

Citizens of Flood

Colfax, Wash, April 7.-Conduct-
or Edward Choate, of the Moscow
Colfax branch of o. R. C N, was
today presented with diamond stud
by the railway conductors of Seat
tie as token of appreciation for
his gallant work of notifying Col
fax citizens of the flood of March 1,
also his gallant work in saving prop
erty during food.
Several days ago Colfax citizens
gave Choate $50 as slight token
of appreciation. He warned the peo-
pie along the South Palouse river
from Pullman to Colfax and spread
the alarm through Colfax. That
trip from Moscow to Colfax was the
last for 80 days on account of floods.

today harder than he has done in the

Nordyke, the old war-horse, is
showing up the best he has in years,
according to opinions expressed by
fans who have watched him, in days
that are in history now.
Bonner holds up on the batting,
and the park is just long enough
diagonally to hold him down. Every
once in while, during the practice
work he sends some one on a pill
grimage to the farthest corner to
bring a ball back, He will be 10

Quire a large park when he grows

Many of the men are league lead
ers of other years, and the Spokane

Other Observations.
Frank Keller, who is afraid that
the park might not be there tomor-
row if he should stay away says, eff
business interferes with baseball,
quit business.
The practice yesterday was not as
exciting as it might have been be-
cause all the balls were mellow.
Pepper Clark tried to work the
crooked bat. He had Smithson,
Collins and Wright spread out about
90 feet in front of him and got so
that he could always drive the ball
pretty nearly straight toward one of
them. Wright is new at the game
and has a unique signal that he gives
every time he is going to throw or
catch one. He sticks out his tom
que, and the harder the throw or the
catch, the further out comes his
tongue. In this way the audience
