AUTOIST HURLED TO DEATH
AT 90 MILES AN HOUR

Milwaukee-David Bruce Brown, q
wealthy young New York sportsman,
was killed and his mechanician, Tony
Scudalari, was fatally injured on the
new Wauwatosa automobile road
course on the eve of the eighth rum
ming of the Vanderbilt cup race.
Bruce Brown was driving his high
powered Fiat car at 9O-mile an
hour speed when a rear left tire blew
out. The heavy car swerved into a
ditch and a second later men and ma
chine were catapulted diagonally
across the road ard into a field with
great force. The men were thrown
clear of the car, which was hurled
high in the air and then smashed into
heap of wreckage.
Browns skull was fractured, his
left leg broken and he suffered inter-
nal injuries. Surgeons said that death
resulted directly from hemorrhage of
the brain. The top of Scudalari's
skull was crushed, his right arm
broken and his body seriously torn.

PAROLED MAN is BLAMED.
Adams, Not Webber. Originator Of
Counterfeiting Plan, Is Belief.


Counter feiting Plan, Is Belief.
Seattle-Secret service operatives,
taking note of the effort of George E.
Adams, the paroled assay office looter,
to represent himself as the dupe of
7O-year-old John C. Weber in the
plot to manufacture counterfeit silver
dollars in a mint established by them
near Kent, said that all the evidence
they had gathered showed Adams as
the principal.
Adams, they said, supplied the old
man with money, obliged him to &C
count for evey penny and gave him
instructions about his conduct. The
secret service men say that Adams
and Weber apparently decided upon
the counterfeiting scheme while they
were both in prison, and Adams set
Weber to work as soon as the old
man was out of prison at the end of
his term.
Weber makes no denial of his part
in the plot and will plead guilty.

APPLE HARVEST ON.
Wa!!a WalIa- Crop Is Estimated at
500 Carloads.


Walla Walla = The winter apple
harvest will start in the Walla Walla
valley this week and will be fully un-
der way in ten days. The years crop
will total 800 cars, the crop being the
best in quality and quantity ever
known in the valley.
The weather conditions this month
have been ideal, the warm days and
cool nights putting an unusually fine
color on the fruit. There was little
blight this year and the fruit is free
from blemish and worms. Several
hundred pickers and packers will be
needed. The pickers get 81 day.
and the packers being able to make
81 to IS day.
Prospects are that apples will not
bring as good price as last season
when fruit was scarce. Some of the
Milton fruit growers crop has been
contracted. In the near future the
Union will put three additional men on
the road to dispose of the winter crop.
The Milton Union has decided to place
no apples in cold storage, and as re-
suit the crop will move from the val
ley as rapidly as it is sold. 1t is ex-
pected that the crop will be COM
pletely harvested and shipped by the
middle of November.
In the upper valley the crop is ex-
pected to be the largest ever harvest
ed.

INDIANS REAL FARMERS.
Sioux Make Remarkable Display at
First Native Exhibit

Poplar, Mont.-Hocesan, an ASSN
niboine, was awarded the highest hon.
ors as an Indian agriculturist at the
Fort Peck reservation fair, the first
Indian county fair ever held in the
United States, with 33 varieties of
grains and vegetables exhibited.
He carried off the Louis w. Hill sill
yer cup for the best individual land
products shown. Among the products
he raised is a cabbage weighing So
pounds, one of the largest ever raised
in the world, agricultural experts de-
clare. Hocesan's farm is near Fra
ser, Mont. He had, as competitors,
Indian farmers representing dozen
tribes of the Sioux nation. The fair
is being watched with great interest
by United States government agricul-
tural experts, in view of the fact that
next year l, 800, 900 acres of land in
the reservation will be thrown open
to white settlers. The Indians who
have taken to farming already have
made start which would make any
white farmer envious in new country.
The amazing thing about their success
is that they did lite or no cultivating.
cit must be the soil,' said Hoce-
san, "for all l did was to plant the
seeds.''
This statement on the part of the
prize winner made the Judge smile.
A feature of the sport programme in
connection with the fair was the vic
tory of the Fort Peck football team
overathe Glacier Park eleven, to 0.
This gridiron contest between the
Sioux and Piegan Indian nations was
of the brand of which Yale and Har-
ward would be proud.

INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT AND
PROGRESS OF OUR HOME STATE
SHIP 40 CARS APPLES.
Eastern Markets Buy SO Carloads
Four Consigned to Coast

Eastern Markets Buy SO Carloads
Four Consigned to Coast
Wenatchee Forty carloads Of ap-
pies were hauled out of this city last
evening by the Great Northern, So 90
ing to Eastern points and four to the
Coast. This makes the total number
of carloads of fruit shipped this sea-
son out of this city more than 100 and
the harvest of the apple crop has just
commenced. Fully $500 carloads re-
main to be shipped.
The great increase in the crop has
disclosed another problem to be solved
by the fruitgrowers in the Wenatchee
valley within the next two or three
years the scarcity of labor. Men,
women and children are in demand to
aid in marketing the crop. Many of
the big orchard owners have had to re-
sort to inexperienced help in packing
fruit. Women average in the packing
sheds from So to 81 SO a day, while
experienced men packers average IS
and Sc day, and boys in their teens
are making good wages and yet the
demand is greater than the supply. In
another three years the crop of the
valley will be doubled.
Clarence Smith, local grower, has
just harvested his crop of Spitzen
bergs from two acres, the sale of
which netted him 81, an acre.
The apples are now on their way to
New York, having been purchased by
commission firm of that city.
Reports on shipments of peaches to
London, the first attempt to export
soft fruit from the Wenatchee valley,
show that the fruit was found in ex-
cellent condition and a ready market
was found in London.

APPLE SNOW APPROACHES.

Mary Important Questions to Be Dis
cussed at Spokane Meet.
Spokane-"T four national apple
shows given thus far have aided ma
terially in placing northwest apples on
the map; now the chief function is to
solve the big problems confronting the
industry, said H. c. Sampson, vice
president and general manager Of the
Fifth National Apple show, which
will be held in Spokane, November IL
to II inclusive.
"Great stress will be laid on the
conference to be held during the show,
in which growers, bankers, traffic Off
Gals and business men will partici-
pate" added Mr.. Sampson. Experts
in these lines will discuss these SUBJ
jects: Choice of site, air drainage,
water drainage, selection of stock,
cultivation, pruning, spraying, pick
ing, packing, financing, disposition of
by-products, transportation, and mar
keting or distributing. Of these
subjects, I consider the disposition of
by-products and marketing the most
pressing questions demanding our at
tention.
"We want all the growers unions
and organizations to send representa-
tives to this conference, and we need
all the growers with US in this move
ment. Whe it is'suggested that in a
few years the Pacific Northwest will
be shipping more carloads of apples,
which are perishable, than Of wheat,
the question of distribution becomes
of vital Importance.
"It is the intention of the board of
governors and board of trustees to
make the National apple show of the
greatest possible service to growers,
shippers, unions, common carriers, in
fact, to all classes connected with the
industry. If we can this year throw
light on the vital problems, we will
feel amply repaid for the large outlay
of time and money. From talks
have had in number of districts of
the Pacific Northwest, l feel sure we
can go long way toward clarifying
the apple situation"

erybody Busy.

erybody Busy
Wenatchee- Never in the history Of
this city has there been greater pros
perity than this year. Every line of
Industry in the city is rushed and the
demand for labor exceeds the supply.
Every available carpenter in the city
| is employed and building tradesmen of
all kinds are kept working, in many
instances 10 to IL hours a day and
Sundays Houses to rent in this city
are at premium even though the con-
struction of new homes is being kept
up constantly. Estimates by city
officials claim the population Of the
city has been increased about 1900
during the last two years.
One hundred and fifty carpenters in
the city lhave been employed during
the summer. Every bricklayer in the
city and in the valley has had employ
ment all summer.
The construction of eight new go
foot store fronts on the business
street of the city has allowed the mer-
chants to expand. More than $50, 900
is now being spent in the removal into
larger quarters by firms in the city,
while more than $1,000 is being
spent in the increase of stocks of mer-
chandise.
Cashmere. though classed as having
900 people, has two department stores,
one of which employs 20 clerks and
the other IL. Every line of business
in the town is rushed. The streets
have been lined with concrete side
walks and the largest grange hall in
the state has just been completed at a
cost of approximately $50, 900.
At Leavenwortb, the big Lamb
Davis sawmill is being run night and
day, with a payroll of $50, 200 a
month, and the returns from the
orchards in that vicinity are bringing
large sums. In that city the business
street is now being paved and new
$44. 600 water system is being started,
as we'll as the improvement of some of
the residence streets.
Chelan has prospered this year as
never before. Besides the construc-

STANDARD OIL NOT HURT.
Pursues Same Business Methods As
Before dissolution"

Pursues Same Business Methods AZ
Before Dissolution"
Chicago The Standard Oil COM
pany Of Indiana still buys its crude oil
from the Prairie Oil & Gas company
and the Ohio Oil company, and ships
its refined product in cars Of the I'm
ion Tank line, both former subsidiary
corporations of the Standard Oil COM
pany of New Jersey, the same as be-
fore the separation Of the corporations
by order of the United States Su-
preme court. Such W. 3, evidence
brought out at the hearing here in the
fight waged by H. Clay Pierce against
stockholders of the Standard Oil COM
pany for control of the Waters Pierce
Oil company.
The hearing will be resumed at New
York. John D. Archbold, vice presi-
dent of the corporation, will be called
as witness before the conclusion of
the hearing in New York.
1t was brought out by witnesses
that the company since its separation
from the parent corporation has not
established any new stations in terri
tory outside the states previously COW
cred by the Indiana concern.
President Cowan, of the Standard
Oil company of Indiana, denied, how
ever, that John D. Archbold or other
directors of the old corporation have
had any connection with the manage
ment of the Indiana corporation since
the order of dissolution.
President Cowan explained that the
$29, 900. 900 stock dividend distributed
after the reorganization of the COM
pany represented property owned by
the corporation, and was made after
the capital stock had been increased
from 81, 600, 900 to $50, 10000
L. J. Drake, vice president of the
Standard Oil company of Indiana, said
he was in charge of the marketing of
the company's product, and that there
was no agreement or understanding in
regard to the prices or territory with
any of the former subsidiary corpora
tions of the Standard Oil company of
New Jersey.

Day and Night.
Mansfeld-Wheat reached the TO-
cent mark on the Mansfield brapch
of the Great Northern this week and
the result was that all grain house
crews were obliged to work day and
night.
All records for the Farmers union
grain houses were broken at Withrow,
a station 10 miles west of Mansfield,
Wednesday, when $500 sacks of wheat
were taken in at that point.
The splendid yield from the in
creased acreage of winter wheat
planted last fall has established the
fact that this is essentially a winter
wheat country and much larger
acreage has already been sown.
An early estimate of the crop placed
the shipments from Mansfield this
year at 1000, 900 bushels, but from
present indications considerably over
this amount will 60.
