All American
Ships May Get
Toll Exemption
(News-ltovlew WaithiiiKtoa Bureau.)
WASHINGTON. June 14. Free
tolls for all coastwide ships through
the Panama canal are certain aud
the Ilorah bill reported favorably by
the senate Interoceanic canls com
mittee may be amended either on
the floor of the senate or In the
house to Include all American vessels
using the canal.
There is apparently no opposition
to the coastwise waiver of tolls and
it is believed here there will be little
practical opposition to relieving all
American ships of tolls it interna
tional complications can be Avoided.
The free tolls legislation will be
pushed to an early vote In both
houses.

A number of Industrial club mem

trial clubs of this district, and will
attend the college course for the next
two weeks. Those leaving here yes

Thomas Rodley, Helen Falbe, Lav

are all Intensely interested lu their
work and no doubt the two weeks
training will prove entertaining, as
well as educational.
Oscar Buoklund, of Elgarose apent
yesterday in this city attending to
bustneea matters. .
The first hint of the market price
on prunes for this season is con
tained in an offer made to Loyal V.
Emery of 8 cents base with a straight
quarter drop. The 8 cent rate Is
made on a basis of 30-35s and the
drop on each small size Is a quarter
cent. This Is Just half the price that
was being offered last year. Many
growers last season, however, re
fused to accept 1 cents, and the
price then dropped several cents and
many were unable to dispose of Uieir
crops.
It Is believed this season that the
price will go slightly higher than thiB
initial offering. It is expected that
the average price will be at least It
cents or over as the market at the
present time Is fairly strong. There
la a big holdover from last season,
but with a failure of the prune crop
over all of the northwest with tho
exception of Douglas county, it is
expected that the price will be fairly
good.
Douglas county will have a normal
crop this season, aitnougn otner
counties are far below average. This
will mean that buyers will turn to
this county and the top price will be
commanded. Just what the top
pride will be is purely speculative,
but from the offer Just made it Is
expected that 10 cents will be the
average price paid. Figuring this as
the base price on 30-35s the average
to growers would be about 9 hi cents.

Oil Rules When
Strike , Dethrones
Old King Coal
By LLOYD ALLEN
(United I'reas- Biaft Corr;;pon.1ftnt.)
LONDON, Juno 14. Kiug Oil has
suddenly come in for widespread
popularity here aud King Coal's dic
tatorship over the British industry is
a thing of the past, according to ex
pert opinion.
England's great coat stoppage was
responsible tor popularizing fuel oil.
All over the country factories, rail
ways, power planu. hospitals, turned
to foreign-produced fuel oil the min
ute their coal bins were emptied,
when 1.200,000 British miners re
fused to accept drastie wage reduc
tions aud stopped work.
Fuel oil pne ot America's favor
ite fuola but hitherto virtually un
known In England, has come to stay,
according to ' authoritative predic
tion. British public services and Indus
try will never again be wholly de
pendent on coal.
Unacquainted with the simplicity
of Installing oil hurmtra, thJ British
people were rather astonbhed to
learn that immense power plauts
could, in an emergency, be converted
in a very few days from coal to oil.
That'a Just what happened. When
tho coal pinch caused widespread
einbnrraamont, fuel oil firms were
consulted and asurod all Inquirers
big Flocks of fuel oil were being held
in the country and quick deliveries
could be mndo from abroad to re
plenlsh the groat tanks.
Large stocks of oil burning equip
ment were also at hand.
Knglaira s general public was
highly gratified. Presence of fuel oil
