My attention has recently bifticiHed to a printed circular letter emanating from the olUce of John I) Cunningham representing himself to be president of the "American Fruit Grower' Union' oft Ik-slate of Georgia, In which he rclleets on the btisimss aud integrity of others engaged in shipping and handling fruit lu different parts ol the country. Mr Cunningham seems to rely largely for his Information up ou Mr Willis Brown, represented to be the H'cretary of said Union. Among tho-o w ho are nttacVed In said letter is myself, aud lu said letter is copied a loiter p urimrtiiig to have been written nd signed by one Win Held Scott, Tempe, Arizona, In which Mr Scott claims that I got away w ith neai ly two car 1 lids of his grains, aud all liis crate's, etc. The fact l, Mr Scott shipped two car loads ed grapes to the National Fiuit Assiciallon, the same parties with whom Messrs Humphrey & Segar did bu-lness during the same year, and he shipcd these two car loads of grapes ou his own risponsibll ily, aud against my advice, as I In formed him that the (. rapes would not carry to the market. As to my operations and handling fruit on Hnaku river, referred to In said circular letter, I simply say that I caused to be shipped to Ktormlierg & Co., liutto, Montana, a few car loads of fruit, for which the returns were made direct to the grower, from Storm berg & Co. , an I I hud nothing what ever to do with Hie handling of this Iruil, except to oveisee, aud prepare tho fiuit for shipment, which was un derstood by tho growers. About October 13lh, lSliO, I was packing and shipping grass for U 1! Bullou, Columbus, Washington. While I was there Mr Ha'lou received a letter from the Oregon Fruit Union reflect ing seriously ou my business lutegiliy, and during the controversy the follow Ing letters were sent by the Union, which explain themselves: WILMS IIKOWN, If.

J E Lathrop, w ho left Oregon for Klondike a few weeks ago, writes from Dyca under date of August l.'llh as fol lows: "I Just came from Chief Indian Johnson's tent where we made a con tract to have our freight carried over from here, 23 miles to Lultu l.lndcr mau, at 2i cents per pound, and If he keeps his contract, 1 am to give him my gold watch for keeping It. That's the agreement. Chief Johnson evi dently wants that gold w itch pretty badly.
