ALL PASSENGERS SAFE
Of 1916 Passengers on California All
 Are Landed Safely.
ASSOCIATED PRESS pIsPATCHl


 LONDONDERRY, June 30.-Of 1916 passengers on the Anchor Line steam CT California, ashore at Tory Island. 348 have landed here. Others were taken to Glasgow In thick fog the California ran on the docks Sunday night, while bound from New York to Glasgow. According to the pass engers there was no panic.
 The sea was calm and the vessel apparently not moving less than seven knots an hour The shock was slight but the sudden stoppage of the California caused some commo- tion. The captain and officers speed : fly restored confidence and as a pre- cautionary measure boats were swung out. They were not lowered, how ever. Several vessels arrived after a few hours and the passengers were transferred. The California is in a dangerous position, with her bottom badly ripped Likelihood of saving the vessel is remote.

CARLOAD SHIPMENTS
 OF CANTAL0UPES BEGIN

Two carloads Of cantaloupes will leave Mesa this morning, one car loaded by Dawson & Co, will go by express to Denver, the other by the 5. A. Gerard x Co.. assisted by Weaver x Co. will go by fast freight to either Cincinnati or Chicago. This is the be- ginning of the 1914 season and 1t gives
 promise of being one of the most sue cessful. The rain of Monday night in stead of hindering the picking and packing of the melons in a way gave valuable assistance in clearing the at
 mosphere and laying the dust along
 the roads.
 In the opinion of the local shippers
 the season is opening in splendid shape.
 All adViceS from the eastern centerS
 are in effect that the markets continue firm even in the face of the fact that the heavy shipments from California are still on All melons are being sold which leads to the belief here that with week and a half given for a cleanup before the Mesa melons get into the market that good price will be real ized for the local product
 In addition to the splendid outlook for prices the stock this season is in splendid condition. It is the opinion of | a number of the growers that the net 1 ting is more perfect and the flavor teven better than on previous years. At any rate the melons are fully up to the I average of previous years and with the valuable experience gained by the
 growers in packing and picking it will | mean that the best melons ever sent | from this district will ommence being 1 placed on the eastern markets within | the next ten days.
 1 The Weaver & Co. have opened off ces with Guy Jones in charge as field man and with Bert Jones as book i keeper
 | Fred Hilvert Western Manager fol the s. A. Gerard X Co, has arrived in the city and will remain for the ship ping season. His car is being driver overland and will be used by him ir | keeping in close touch with the fields signed up with his company during the season
