Fruits and Vegetables.

Apples-There has been no change
in the local market on apples as . to
prices, but the grade of stocks com
ing to hand are of better quality and
there is a good passing demand.
Other Fruits-Lemons still hold at
last weeks figures but black and dew
berries are a little easier. Huckle-
berries are now offered at SC per
pound. The range in the price on
peaches has narrowed down to 400
coo and egg plant is also down to so
@75c. Sweet Water grapes are now
offered at 50@75c with other grades
unchanged.
Potatoes-Local stocks of the Irish
variety are now rather plentiful and
the jobbing figure is $1.25 per cwt.
Sweets are off 75c this week, the fig.
ure being $3.50 per cwt.
Wheat-That the growers are die.
tating the wheat prices to large ex.
tent is the assertion from various
sources. 1t seems that they have the
idea that the price is going to be much
higher and as a result are holding
onto their stocks, and as result there
is very little wheat moving. That this
state of affairs cannot hold out much
longer seems within the range of rea.
son, as advices from the coast are to
the effect that the terminal ware.
houses are full to capacity.
There have been advances this
week in timothy, red clover and al
falfa seed and reactive decline in
winter VptCh Alfalfa continues e.
advance, due largely to the fact that
the price has been kept down during
the last two years because of the
large quantity of high grade German
stock imported.

The British official bureau says that

succeeded in forcing back in north
eastern direction the German forces
opposed to them
Apart from the announcement thai
the German forces have fallen back
before the offensive tactics of the al
lies on the line from Naturalization
douin to Verdun, the most interesting
report is contained in a dispatch tC
the London News from Boulogne il
which the French commander Genera
Pau, is given as authority that the al
lies have won a victory at Percy-Sur
Disc in which the imperial guard un
der the crown prince of Germany Ii
alleged to have been annihilated by &

MEXICAN REPORTS GRATIFYING
Washington, D. c., Pleased With Plans
to Call Election October I.

to Call Election October I.
Administration Off
Gals expressed their satisfaction over
the reports from Mexico City that a
general convention of governors, mil
itary chiefs and delegates represent
ing the army had been called for Oc-
tober 1 to arrange a program for a
constitutional election.
This represents the chief demand
of General Villa and acquiescence in
it by General Carranza was regarded
as a most hopeful indication toward
harmony between the two leaders.
The only dark spot on the Mexican
horizon is the attitude of General Ia
pata. Official reports say he refuses
to come to an agreement with Car
rama, and will have no meeting with
the first chief unless the latter goes
south to Zapata territory.
Still Quarreing.
Ell Paso, Texas.-The Carranza and
Villa elements of the constituencies
party differ as to the eligibility of
General Carranza as provisional presi.
dent of Mexico according to asser-
lions made Monday by men of promi
nence in both factions. President
Wilson's recent explanation that Car
rama was not considered as a provi
sional president as far as the Wash
ington government was concerned re
vived the discussion on the point that
was the cause of heated arguments al
the Torreon conference.

SPOKANE WEEKLY REPORT.

While the continued dry weather is
handicapping operations in many di-
rections and is responsible for con-
tinuous and serious losses from fires,
the work. of securing crops is progress
sing favorably, and without serious
detraction from the favorable indica-
lions early in the season. Wheat is
being rapidly gotten under cover, and
will unquestionably be the most valu-
able crop ever harvested in the Pa
cific Northwest, by many millions of
dollars, the quantitive outturn setting
new record, with the price higher
than in the present grain-growing era.
Provisions.
Butter-In the local market there
has been no change as to prices in
the butter market, but values are held
firm at the quotations named and if
anything there is indication Of an up
ward tendency.
Eggs-The situation in the egg mar
ket still has a very firm tone and
while there has been no change in
quotations the prospects as to values
is upward.
Poultry-Hens and chickens are not
coming to hand in as large quantities
as last week but the quotations re-
main the same as last week.
Dressed Meats-There has been NO
changes in the quotations in this de-
partment since last issue, but there is
a firm undertone to the market, es
l pecially in hogs.

Water % Feet Deep.

Overlooking streams flooded the
Country club district, the south side
the east and west bottoms, Sheffield
and other sections. The greatest dam
age was done in the southwestern part
of the city and in Rosedale, Kan, a
suburb, where the water stood 23 feet
deep in places.
Turkey creek drainage stream, al
ways treacherous, was a harmless
thread of murky water when the men
and women who live in the valley
southwest of the city went to bed
Sunday night. Then came rain, which
continued 10 hours and 80 minutes
and was 694 inches.

RUSSIA, MEET AND COME
TO AGREEMENT.
ACT AS A UNIT TO THE END
posaIs ely-Washingt D.
c., Officials Depressed at News
Turkey, Bone of Contention.

Washington.-Offi and diplo-
mats here regard an agreement just
signed by Great Britain, France and
Russia not to make peace except by
mutual consent as an indication that
the war will be fought to a decisive
end. On all sides the announcement
is accepted hereas meaning the inev-
liable prolongation of the war.
President Wilson and Secretary
Bryan, who have been hoping for some
indication through American diplo
mats abroad of readiness on the part
of the powers to talk peace were said
to have been depressed by the news.
Diplomats of the allied powers in.
terpreted the agreement as a reso-
luton on the part of Great Britain and
Russia to wage their warfare in every
quarter, irrespective of reverses in
France. From all parts of the globe
colonial troops are being gathered by
England.
Will Stand United.
n6 d6ictlutllJ ItduS-
The undersigned, duly authorized
thereto by their respective govern
ments, hereby declare as follows:
THE British. French and Russian
governments mutually engage not to
conclude peace separately during the
present war. The three governments
agree that when the terms of peace
come to be discussed, no one of the
allies will demand conditions of peace
without the previous agreement OF
each of the other allies.
I'm faith whereof, the undersigned
have signed this declaration and have
affixed thereto their seals.
Done at London, in triplicate, this
9Th day of September, 1914.

French Ambassador to Great Britain

Russian Ambassador to Great Brit
ain"
Hope that the gathering strength Of
the triple entente might yet impress
Turkey with the wisdom of remaining
neutral was revived among diplomats
though there was complete absence
of advices from Constantinople. Thai
the allies had endeavored again to con
vince Turkey of the necessity of pre-
serving her neutrality, as reflected il
today's London dispatches, dovetails
with recent advices to the American
government.

swishes Under sIeepers' Beds.

Turkey creek began to rise, silently
at first, and then iwth a roar, until it
was a mile wide. The water crept up
the streets of Rosedale and into homes
and the city hall. The water rose so
rapidly that many were not awakened
until it was swishing under their beds.
Mill creek, a small stream flowing
through Country club, an exclusive
residence section, rose and carried
away outbuildings and vehicles of all
descriptions. In the eastern part of
the city Mount Washington cemetery
was Inundated The Blue river rose
10 feet in a few hours and washed
away much property belonging to
manufacturers near Sheffield and
Centropolis.
