BAD APPLES OILED
Inspector Baun Kept Busy at
the Fruit Markets.
FOE OF WORMS AMD SCALE
Over J 000 Boxes Condemned In the
Pnst Two Week- Doe Most
of HU Work at the
Italian Market.
County Fruit Innpertop L B. Baun kept
busy thes days watching fruit brought tn by
farmer and shipped In from outside point
' to the commission men. la spite of the
warn Ins that has been given to the orchard
lata, a considerable Quantity of apples and
peart. Infected with arate and wormy, is
sent to the market. All such fruit, when
found. Is immediately condemned by the
Inspector, and a dose of coal oil effectually
nreveota Ita sale.
In the past two weeks Inspector Baun
has thua treated over imM) boxes of apples.
He found them In all aorta of places, in
grocery stores and on Front street, but most
of them were located at the Italian Vege
table Gardeners market on the East Ptde.
The Italian applea-rowere thought at first
they could outwit the Inspector by bring
ing In their fruit at 3 or 4 o'clock In the
momlnr and dlfposlna- of it before day-
break, but they always find the Inspector
there on their arrival. Wormy apples will
not keep and that la the reason so many
are belnjr brourht In now.
Occasionally the inspector finds a bad lot
of apples shipped in from some of the
well-known apple sections, but this does not
save them and they are '"oiled" like the
rest.
The petn!! grocers and the wholesale
fruit men are In full accord with the in
spector In his work, but ha encounters much
opposition from hawkers and peddlers.
They dare not resist him. however, as they
know what the consequences would be.

day. The decline Is the result of tha slump
Jn the East that haj been gainlnc force
for some time past.
private wires from the Eastern markets
yr-bterday Indicated a more or less demor
alised state of affairs. Tha trouble started
anvr.s; the bis; cane eupar refiners, who
have bet n Industriously hammering down
t he price of raws, Tha net drop in re
fined cane at New York since October -G
has been 4.V. Then the beet sugar refiners
In the West took up the fight, which ap
parent ly has developed into a atruggl be
tween the rane and beet sugar interests.
Beet sugar prices in the Middle Weat have
been cut sharply and are now 15c below
the cane prices at Missouri River points.
It dcea not appear that there Is any
friction between the beet and cane people
on this Coast an,d tha decline that occurred
yesterday waa merely In sympathy with
the conditions East.
BARLEY IS IX SMALL SUPPLY.
tera Washington Sections Have no Oats
to Offer.
Barley waa tha moat Interesting frature of
the grain market yeaterday. California prices
continue to rive and this add to the strength
here. Offerings are small and there is rea
son to believe the country la well cleaned

where the crop heretofore has been held. back
tecue of ta lack of transiortation facill
f tie, very little barley is now to be had.
' Those sections particularly have in past
' years been looked upon for the reserve aup
. ply In ths Pprinjr. At the rats that barley
has gone Into consumption this season, tha

i receipt are rather tieavy. averaging about 25

Advice from Eastern Washington points are

There wera no r developments in the
fcop marke.t yesterday. Trade continued
fairly active and prices were unchanged.
It waa reported from Salem that Harry
Hnlam. of the Horst Company, bought 130
bales from a Falem deaJer at 8 cents and
the same price waa offered for choice hops
1n other sections. T. A. l.ivesley A Co.

"Wash.. section. buying several hundred
bales, part of them at 6 cents, and taking
the other on consignment.
The Kentish Observer of October 29 said
of h English market:
With a fair amount of trade passing,
prices have assumed & very firm tone,

Tendency of Stock Market Is
Hesitating.
TRADE VOLUME FALLS OFF
Sharp Rise in United States Steel
Indicates a Squeeze of Shorts.
Harrtmans and Other Rail
road Issues Held Back.
" NEW YORK. .Nov. 32. Transactions In
stocks underwent a decided shrinkage' from
the recent rate of activity today. The ten
dency was at all times hesitating and the
market movements were exceedingly spotty
and uneven. The professional operators
found themselves much puzzled to read tha
significance of this mixed Indication of con
stant shifting of operations by the room
traders- The speculative element was dis
posed to work for a reaction in the morn
ing, when it seemed that larpe additional
sales to realise had been attracted by yes
terday's suggestion of weakness.
United States Steel's ri?e today to 50.
eclipsing by more than a point any prK
ever before touched in the history of the
corporation, was a remarkable demonstra
tion. The preferred stock at 114 alto sold
at a. record price. The moderate response
elsewhere was, therefore, the more notice
able. Outside of Northern Pacific the show of
strength today was largely confined to storks
of the lower grade and smaller prices, the
prominence of which is accounted a sign
usually of the passing of a speculative
movement into Its declining stages.
The lack of special news to account for
the heavy demand . for United States Steel
gave rise to a surmise that a large and
obstinate short Interest In the stock was
belfg driven to cover on such distressing
terms as may be imagined from the excess
of the price paid over that at which any
previous sales have been effected. The
organs of the iron and stee! trade, while ad
mitting the many evidences of Increased
activity in that industry and of widespread
receipt of new orders, expressed what the
Iron Age called the "sbsurd exaggeration
of many statements current' regarding im
provement that has been taking place and
the prospects for the Winter.
A violent slump In the prico of copper in
London gave point to the suspicion of
speculative manipulation of the market for
that metal on the recent advance. Prices
of copper locally were not affected, but a
falling off in the demand was reported, in
dicating that the immediate needs of con
sumers have been provided for. The cop
per industrials were not conspicuous here
for a price movement In either direction,
although in London they were deprcsbed In
sympathy with the action of the metal.
The sale of (-'0,000.000 of a new Issue oT
Illinois Central bonds and the Immediate
closing of applications for the Issue by
the purchasing bankers was regarded as a
proof of the healthy Investment demand and
of the good promise of provision of facili
ties for the railroads on entering upon new
work. The day's net changes show some strik
ing gains, but the restraint on the move
ment of nich prime speculative favorites as

In Argentina, all tlw European markets
closing weak. The cnier support came irom
local shorts. Advices rrom Argemm:
claimed that the drouth in the Southern
portion of the, country was still unbroken
and that serious damage woum result un
less relief came speedily In the shape of
rain. Reports from the Ohio River Valley
also stated that the drouth la that sec
tion had been only partially bioken. The
exoori business today waa not so lively
aa of late, although thena was a good trade
In Manitoba wheat and Ohio millers were
fair bidders for red Winter wheat here.
Buying by shorts caused several rallies
In tho corn market during the day. nut eacn

REPVBL1CAX WATCHER MUR
DERED IX NEW YORK.
Accuses Man of Repeating' and Ii
Waylaid Witnesses of Crime in
Dread of Violence.
XEW YORK. Nov. 12. Interesting;
revelations regarding election methods
In this city are promised by the police
as the result of the arrest last night
of Edward Kneagh. who is charged
with having some knowledge of the
manner in which Benjamin Stone, a
Republican watcher at the polls, came
to his death on . election day. Stone
had some words with a voter whom
he believed to be attempting to re
peat, but who finally was permitteed
to cast his ballot. It was alleged that
'the voter threatened Stone. Stone
left the polling place and a little later
a fight broke out in the street during
which Stone received injuries from
which he died.
When Kneagh was arraigned in the
Coroner's Court, testimony was given
by two eye-witnesses. Gus Strubin
asserted that lie saw Kneagh strike
Stone. During his testimony Strubin
began to weep and when asked the
cause, said he was nervous about tes
tifying and that he "would get his."
The other witness Albert Backer,
also seemed to be reluctant to testify
which led the Assistant District At
torney to decide that tie witnesses
had been intimidated. Kneagh was
held without bail.
