"The prune grower of the Willamette valley met in the Willamette Valley Prune Association warehouse yeaterday afternoon and organized a fire relief ae iooiution," aayi the Kaletn Htateaman. "L. M. (iilliert, of the prune aaaociation, presided, and W. E. Way acted aa sec retary. The prune grower prent at the meetiiiK were Lloyd T. lieynolda, C. O. Constable, K. J. Spencer, liruce Cud niii(ham, K. D. Allen, John Pemherton. W. E. Way, A. W. Miw, L. M. Gilbert, Evan Barnett and A. L. Wess. "The committee, consisting of John Pemherton, H. J. Zercher, H. 8. Gile, W. E. Way and J. F. tlanchard, which waa appointed at the lav meeting to make all arrangement for organizing and commencing business a soon as possible, reported favorably and outlined a plan of organization, which waa adopt ed. "The regulations and by-laws of the Farmers' Fire Kelief Association, of liulteville, Oregon, was taken as the frame work upon which to build the by-laws of the organization. Those by laws were read article by article and adopted with such change aa were deemed necessary to adapt them to the needs of the new association. It will conform in almost every particular to the Hutteville Association. "The association will be known as the Prune Growers' Fire Relief Associa tion of Oregon. For the present, at leat, the association will insure only prune driers, prune warehouses, fixtures and prunes. The plan ol assessment is based upon the old line insurance rates on prune driers. Each assessment. which may be levied whenever the association is in need of money, will consist of 20 perc- itie assessment of the ola line con .uies. "The delegate elected a board of di rectors, consisting of Bruce Cunning ham, John Pemherton, A. W, Mizs, L. M. Gilbert and Lloyd T. Reynolds. Im mediately after the meeting adjourned, the board of directors held a meeting ami elected temporary oflicees as fol lows: President, L. T. Reynolds ; vice president, Bruce Cunningham ; secreta ry, J. r. lilanchard. The headquarters of the association will be Salem, and the by-law provide for an annual meeting fo (be association. The bosrd of directors will meet again next Saturday to perfect the business of the association andget solicitors in the field. "A committee, consisting of. John Peraberton, W. E. Way and L. M. Gil bert, was chosen to dralt article of in corporation and file them with the sec retary of atate. ' According to the state liw the association cannot transactbuei ness until $300,000 in stock has been aubscribed, or applications made for risks covering that amount. This will be about 300 prone driers and ware houses, counting the average insurance on each at $1000. The state law also regulates the amount of insurance to be carried; no property to be insured for more than $1000, nor for more than two thirds it actual value. "The object of the association is purely for the benefit and protection of the prune-growers of the state, and there are to be no pecuniary profit or divi dends paid to any member or stock holder. WILL COMPLETE ORGANIZ ATI0X. At a meeting of the Willamette Valley Prune Growers' Association last week the matter of insurance on prune drier was brought up and discussed, and it was finally decided that the rates charged by the old line companies weie too high, so it was proposed that a com mute be appointed to investigate the workings of the Butteville Hop Growers' Mutual Association, with a view to or ganizing a similar mutual association, says the Salem correspondent to the Portland Telegram. Thi committee, after due investigation, called a meeting Inst Wednesday, made a favorable re port, which was adopted and a tempor ary association was organized and a board of director appointed with in struction to complete the organization and incorporate. The Board of Directors of the Prune Growers' Fire Relief Association, how ever, held a meeting on Saturday even ing Inst, and decided not to complete the organization of the association, but to accept instead a proposition made them by the Oregon Fire Relief Association, of MuMinnville, which was considered very fair and favorable to the growers. Under the state law it would have been necessary for the association to se cure $300,000 worth of risks, the maxi mum amount to be carried by any one man to be $1000, before they could do business. This would require the pa tronage of at least 300 growers within the state, and to secure this amount of business in time to insure before prune drying begins wonld require the employ ment of about a dozen solicitors, at con siderable expense to the association, the fund for which would have to be ad vanced by the promoter. In the Oregon Fire Relief Association the same plan and proportion of rate will be charged as in the old line com panies, but only 50 per cent of the old rate will constitute an assessment. AS EXITRSIOX TRAIN WRECKED. Chief of Folice Iinrns on Train And Escaped Cnl::jured. An excursion train on the Northern Pacific, consisting of an engine and seV' eral coaches, en route to the Elks' clam bake at Olvmma. was wrecked at 11 o'clock last Saturday morning, two miles south of Chehalis. Washington. Two people were killed and about thirty injured. The train left Portland about 7:30 Saturday morning, crowded with promt nent Elk, their friend and families. The train was running at a good rat of speed when the rails spread throwing the engine down an embankment forty feet. Three coaches piled on top of the engine, and to add to the horror of the scene, the boiler of the engine exploded, throwing scalding water and steam lor several yard around. The fourth, fifth and sixth coaches left the track, but only the front end of the fourth car went over the bank. The seventh coach did not leave the rails. Nearly every one in the first coach wa injured, the most of them having fractured limb. Those who escaped in jury started in to assist the Injured and pull them from the wreck. Several doc tor were on the train and within a abort time were at work on the sufferers. A messenger wa hurried to Cbebali with the new and a train of flat cart waa tent to the scene of the wreck to bear the injured to the hospital. Every doctor in Chehalis and Centralia hurried to the wreck and a special train was sent from Tacoma with doctors and nnrses. C. B. Farleman, who was killed in the wreck, conducted a cigar and confec tionery store in Portland, and wa the oldest living member of the Portland lodge of Elk. T. E. Daniels, son of Ex-Lieutenant-Governor Daniels, of Wash ington, and a reporter on the Oregonian, had an arm broken, band crashed and leg fractured, but wa able to telegraph the news of the accident to bi paper. The other person killed outright was a tramp, who wa helpiog on the engine. OaBGOIf CITY PI0PLB WEE TH8BK. Chief of Police Cbas. Burns, was the only Oregon Cityite who was a passenger on the Northern Pacific Elks' excursion train that was derailed Saturday near Chehalis. Chief Burns, Mr. and Mi. W. Cole, Dr. W. E. Carll and E. J. Deal ton, all of this city, went to Portland to join the excursion, but of that party Mr. Burns was the only one to reach the de pot in time to take the excursion train, the other member of the party being fiassengers on the regular overland that eft afterwards. For a time following the announcement of the accident there was considerable anxiety among the rel atives of the members of the party here a to their safety. At the time of the accident Chief Burns, in company with a traveling man. wa standing on the platform of the rear coacb of the train, and it is a co-incidence that they were discussing the possible extent of the damage that might follow il the train should leave the track. The first intimation Chief Burns had that anything was wrong was the sound of the boiler exploding, which was plainly heard above the roar of the train that was going at the rate of more than fifty miles an bour. This disturbance was followed almost instantly by a fear ful lurching of the train, the rear coach almost leaving the track. A second con cussion caused much confusion in the last car, where all of the passenger were thrown violently from their seats. Chief Burns hastened to the demolished cars and gave a helping hand in caring for the injured. He gives a graphic de scription of the scenes ot the accident, and ay the railroad company is in hi opinion entirely responsible for th acci dent, because the train crew proceeded with the engine in its evident unsafe and dangerous condition under protest.

P i Absolutely Pure THERE iS NO SUBSTITUTE REFUSE TO SELL Owners of Falrclough Mine mil Hold Property. Rejected an Offer or $20,000 One Ton of Ore to be Nent to San Francisco. It I reported that Fairclough Bros., of thi city, who together with Portland parties own one of the most promising: claim in the Molalla mining district, this week refused an offer of $20,000 for their property. While the rumor could not be confirmed, it is known that the owner of tbia claim have received sev eral flattering offers all of which have been refused. It is the parpose of those -holding the property to prospect the claim for all it is worth and if the pres ent promising prospects hold oat, it is their purpose to put in a plant. 3. W. Grace and B. Lee Westover, of thi city, returned last Friday from Ogle Creek on the upper Molalla where the Faircloagb claim i located. They re port that nearly thirty of the claim are being worked by prospector while many other claim have been staked oat ana the locators have returned to their homes. Many new people are going into the mining district daily and the excite ment that followed the first substantial discovery a month ago does not diminish. The owners of the Fairclough mine are daily sending out a quantity of the de composed gold-charged ore and when a ton ha been brought to thi city, it will be sent to a reliable assayer in San Francisco aad upon bis findings largely depends the future operations in this district. Sample of the ore have as sayed $42.20 to the too. It is the belief of mining men that if a ton of the ore assay proportionately with the samples that have already been tested, that the entire region of the Molalla in the neigh borhood of Ogle Creek is rich with de posits of tbd yellow metal. PREPARING FOB A LOG IiOOX VT. P. & P. Co. Is Constructing a Weir Will Sot Cause Orerflow. The Willamette Pulp & Paper Com pany, having recently acquired title to Rock Island in the Willamette river near New Era, is building a weir that extends from the lower end of the island to the mainland on the east. By means of this obstruction the company expects to pro vide a enitable place for the booming or if lo6s during the winter months. People residing on the east side of the river in the vicinity of the island are alarmed that the building of the weir will eauBe the overflow of the river dur ing the high water season with the result that damage to property will follow. They have intimated that injunction pro ceedings may be resorted to, that the further building of the weir may be de feated. The management of the mills explains that the weir will not exceed in height the highest stage reached by the river last winter and say that it will be so constructed that damage to property cannot follow. The weir is being con structed of twelve foot planks set four inches apart. All water that will not pass through the weir in the east chan nel will be diverted to the main channel which will be sufficiently deepened to accommodate the increased volume. In this wav the company expects to avoid all possibility of any back water result ing from the construction of the weir. Hoy Cured of Colic Alter Physi cian's Treatment Had Failed.
