DOES NOT WANT WAR Netherlands Will Not Assume Of ferisive Unless Forced. CANNOT SETTLE BY ARBITRATION Trouble With Venezuela Is One in Which Sovereignity and National Honor Are At Stake. The Hnguo," Aug. 20. Af tor a nine hours' session, during which tho dis putc between The Netherlands and Venezuela, was canvassed exhaustively in all its phases, the cabinet dispersed shortly after midnight last night, and Minister ot Foreign Affairs Van Swin- deren proceeded to the royal chateau at Het Loo, to acquaint Queen Wilhcl mina with the result of the council. The terms of The Netherlands' an swer to the letter of President Castro, of Venezuela, were fully discussed, and it is understood thatt he actual text as well as the broad lines of action, drawn up to meet any possible eventualities, were agreed upon. It is maintained that the present question is rather one of sovereignty and national honors, matters which are not so susceptible of solution by arbitration. The Netherlands government is in clincd for the present to adopt a wait ing attitude, but it is ready to take energetic steps whenever the develop ments from the situation demand. It is agreed to push all necessary prepara tions in order to be ready to support an ultimatum, should it be decided to for ward one to President Castro. Work will be rushed night and day at the naval dockyards to complete the prepa rations needed by the warships, so that they will be in readiness to reinforcce the vessels now in the Caribbean by the end of next month. In the meantime every effort will be made to find a pacific solution of the dispute, and especially in view of the fact that Queen Wilhelmina is opposed to resorting to war until all other meth ods have been tried.

The worst fears have been realized about the explosion which occurred in the- Maypole mine yesterday. The entombed miners num bered about 70 and it is impossible that any of them can have survived. Efforts at rescue, however, continue unceasingly. Thirty bodies were dis covered today in the workings, but the fumes from the burning coal prevented the rescuers from reaching the others who probably are lying down in the mines. A few bodies were brought to the surface today, but all were so blacken ed and mutilated that identification was impossible. At midnight an enormous crowd was still keeping a sorrowful vigil at the pit mouth. Machine to Pick Up Walnuts. Fullerton, Cal., Aug. 20. L.

Railroad Companies Furnish Men to Fight Fires. Vancouver, B.C, Aug. 21.--A. heavy pall of smoke caused by at- J 1 1- ? e . l n 1 . t . jjruucuing loresb nrcs nnngs over mis city, tho air is oppressive and there are no signs of it clearing. Tho fires now burning in Vancouver's vicinity are tho worst known in 10 years. They are now dangerously near tho city, and ore still burning fiercely. Tho Cana dian Pacific and British Columbia Elec tric railways have large bodies of men out on tho Lulu island lino fighting the. names. Tho fires are consuming hundreds of thousands of dollars' worth of valuable standing timber, leaving hundreds of acres of land with nothing but black ened snags. The worst fires are in tho Squamish valley, and on Bowen island but the blazes at Point Grey and in tho Capilane valley aro likely to prove very troublesome. The civic water works property is said to bo threatened by the fire and a force of men has been sent out to check tho flames. 'Jlhe hrc has got into tho big timber of some exceedingly valuable limits, and it was reported at Squamish land' ing today that it was racing through tho forest, and would, unless rain came soon, cause thousands of dollars of loss. The forest fires that threatened Nanaimo and Ladysmlth aro well under control today,. Much valuable timber has been destroyed, but no houses have fallen prey to the flames. The old workings of the Extension mine were gutted by the fire. The telegraph lino along the E. & N. is burned down. LAW SET ASIDE. Australia Allows American Marines to Rarade With Arms. Sydney, N. S. W., Aug. 21. There arose a circumstance in connection with the parade of American bluejack ets and marines in Sydney which at one time promised to make it impossi ble for the carrying out of the pro gram as originoally planned, but the matter was adjusted and the men marched in accordance with expecta tions. Imperial regulations forbid the land ing of armed men in Australia. This fact was communicated to Admiral Sperry, who in turn informed the gov ernment that he would not allow his men to participate in the procession and reviews unless they came ashore armed. This was followed by a con- m a 1 ft i ierence uetween Admiral aperry ana the commonwealth government, after which it was announced that the gov ernment had granted permission for the American sailors and marines to land armed, but without ammunition This provision was accepted by the American commander. HOLLAND TO PLAY LONE HAND Needs No Help From Other Powers in Venezuela. The Hague, Aug. 21. The govern ment of the Netherlands has no inten tion of trivine out the terms of its re ply to President Castro.'of Venezuela, until it is delivered in Caracas through the German minilster there, who is watching Holland's interests in Vene zuela. The subject has been mooted by some politicians that other powers hav ing claims against Venezuela will join Holland in an action against that coun trv. This, however, does not meet with favor here, and no such sugges tion from any other power has officially reached The Hague. The government of the Netherlands is confident of its ability to handle the situation single-handed, now that it has the sympathy and support of the United States. Insult Castro's Flag.

Salem Tho Northwest association has been formed at this place for tho purpose of packing prunes this Boason. It is a new factor in tho Willamette valley prune market. It includes somo of tho largest growers of this section of tho valley. Its members declare it will not join tho packers' combine, which was formed here somo time airo, and will bo tho only largo packing firm outside tho Packers' association. Tho now Growers' association has pur chased tho packing plant of Lessello liros., at Albany, and will operate it. The plant has a capacity of 1C0 cars for tho season. Tho capital stock of tho new concern is $10,000. Lessello ' was formerly manager of tho packing plant owned by Lessello Bros., and it is apparently tho nurnoso of tho new association to mako uso of his knowledgo of packing and market ing fruit. Mr. Lessello says that prunes' can bo sold in tho East at figures a full cent above tho prices now offered by the packing houses which are mem- berg of the Packers' association. The growers who have organized the new association will proceed at once to enlarge tho membership. One of me plans of tho new concern is to re quiro all members to dry their prunes thoroughly, so that there will be no danger of the fruit spoiling, as was tho case in some instances last year. In order that the growers shall have no incentive to underdry, each grower will bo credited with the additional weight his fruit may gain during tho processing, grading and packing, which increase is considerable in many in stances. OREGON FAIR PLANS. Counties Preparing for Their Annual Exhibition of Resources. Tho Dalles Tho eighteenth annual fair of the Second Eastern Oregon dis trict, comprising Wasco, Sherman, Gil liam, Wheeler, Crook and Hood River counties, will be held at The Dalles for five days, commencing October G, and closing October 10. A large number of premiums will be -offered for exhibits, races, etc. The main attractions will be the big pavil ion, where all the fruits, cereals, flow ers, fancy work, etc., will be exhibited. There will be races every day, a track meet by athletes of the schools of the district, Arnold s Amusement company will have concessions, arid in addition there will be balloon ascen sions, high diving and other free at tractions. As at present fruits and grains give promise of being of excellent quality and of large yield, it is expected that the fair this year will surpass all other efforts. Freewater-Weston Line. Pendleton According to the present plans of the Walla Walla Traction company, which is now operating the electric line into Milton and Freewater in the north end of Umatilla county, the company will use gasoline motors on the extension of the line to Weston and Athena, a distance of 20 miles. Special motors will be ordered for this section of the line, and the expense of electric juice, wire and poles will be eliminated. It is understood that con tracts for 10 miles of grade between Freewater and Weston have been let. Better Service on C. S. Railway. Condon The postal officials are con sidering the feasibility of securing a more adequate mail service between Condon and points on the Columbia Southern railway. Under the present system it takes three days to get re turn mail from points on these branch es. Considerable man matter is car ried between these towns. It is thought that what is called a closed pouch will bo made up on the Condon branch and then placed on No. 7 at Arlington, so as to make better connec tions at Biggs with the other branch. Harriman Makes Promise. Klamath Falls Steam shovels will be at work at Klamath Falls, on the railroad grade, within a few weeks. The contract has been let to Erickson & Peterson to build the" road from Dor- ris to this city, including the tunnel at Dorris. The first work hero will be on the bridge over the government canal, and the cut north of town to furnish material for tho fill in the railroad yards. Mr. Harriman's statement that the road will be completed to this city by spring is given added weight by the letting of this contract. . Growers Conform to Law. . Salem Fruit Inspector Armstrong is watching the Marion county marKcts closely for infected fruit, but so far has been called upon to destroy very little of it. Growers aro learning fast that wormy apples cannot be disposed of. In moat instances it is only ne cessary to notify tho retailer that tho apples must not bo sold' and must bo returned to tho grower, In only a few cases this summer has fruit been con fiscated. , fi Eccles May Back Scheme. La Grande David Eccles. a Utah :anitalist, heavilv interested in ougar, railroad and lumber interests, is con fprriniwith tho Commercial club rela tive to a largo irrigation scheme which he may finance here. Tho proposition moans an outlay of nearly $1,600,000. V.orlpR will announce soon whether or not he will, back the prpject.with his money. ADD NORMAL WORK. Now Course of Study Issued by Stato Superintendent Ackorman. Salom Tho establishment of a one year teachers' training course, to bo optional with pupils in tho 10th, 11th and 12th grades, is tho principal fen turo of tho now courso of study which has been issued by Superintendent Ackorman and which wiU bo used in all Oregon public schools hereafter. The new courso of Btudy is practical ly tho samo as hcrotofOro in uso so far as tho first eight grades aro concerned. Tho now features aro found in tho high schools, which comprise tho 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th grades. Tho new teach ers' training courso is not designed to take the place of normal school work, but is provided as an aid to those high school pupils who contemplate entering tho teaching profession, but who can not sco thoir way clear to attend ono of the normal Bchools. Many young peo ple now go from the high schools into tho common schools as teachers, and it is the purposo of tho training courso to fit them better for such work. The courso includes 14 weeks in White's "Art of Teaching," Bovcn Weeks of observation work, seven weeks of practice teaching, four weeks' study of tho common school courso of study, and four weeks' study of practical school problems. Superintendent Ackerman expresses tho opinion that this optional work will bo taken by many high school pupils who will thereby bo induced to attend one of tho regular normal schools.
