It. was expected this morning
'that'many bodies would be recov

where the greatest loss of life is
reported. These predictions were
not borne out, however. The
water baa not left all parts of

Creek, south of the city, but can
not recover them, he said. The
bodies of a woman and girl have
been located near the Colorado

be recovered and several in
Grove cannot yet be removed, he
said. --

Poor Fa Struggle.
Scenes of desolation were re
vraled this afternoon when th-
falling of the waters of the Ar
kansas river from the Grove dis
trict of the city permitted a close
up Of this section, which suffered
mo!jt in the flood of Friday nteht.
Residents of the district, most
ly foreigners, were at work this
afternoon retrieving what they
could of their household effects.
Some ar planning to go back to
their homes immediately.
The Grove is one of the jioor
sections of Pueblo.
Little of thi distr.-ct is more
than a foot above the river banks,
and that the waters swept across
the settlement with great violence
Is shown by bouses swept from
their foundations and a freight
car lodged more than 300 yards
from any railroad tracks. Loss
of life in the Grove district has
not approached early predictions.
Froni its position the loss should
no't have been great had the peo
ple taken warnings, but many re
fused to leave their homes until
the water had rushed in upon
them,
CorpKCft Found.
An important part of the sal
vage today was sacks of mail.
These were recovered from all
parts of the yard, gathered in
piles and hauled by ropes from
the railroad yards to viaducts
and taken to the postoffice.
Another peculiar recovery In
the yards was a corpse, carried
by the flood from an uptown un
dertaking establishment. It was
the body of Gordon Rennie. sent
here from California for burial.
The body of Mrs. Sardgena. sent
here from Trinidad, was also
washed away during rbe flood and
later recovered In its casket.

FIRST FRUIT RECEIVED
(Continued from pae 1)
The strawberries have ripened
well, and promise to make i
heavy crop. The littl- rain yester
day will help the berries some
what: it wasn't heavy enough
really to soak the soil, but it will
help Rome.
Gooseberries are practically
ready for th market. Some hav;
been picked and are waiting lor
the canneries to open. Others- will
be picked this week. They kee.-)
longer, --ither on or off the bushes
than the soft fruits, and there ha.
been little need of rushing them
to the market. The quantity. lo.j.
is small enough that no long run
can be made on them, and they
are postponed until tlr-re is some
thing els to reinforce them from
the factory point of view.
Sugar Decliuc Helps.
Sugar declined 35 cents a sack
last week, contrary to every ordi
nary possibility of business. The
shrewd canners who took advan
tage of this drop, are in luck that
may not come again this season.
Old-time canning factory em
ployes are warned that the season
is not yet fully on, and that the
factories can not reasonably be
expected to call for full crews.
Th first runy are expected to be
small, as the sales condition is
still unsetflei. and the market has
not indicated what it -will be for
next year.
No Offers Made.
The growers' price agreement
reached at th" fruitgrowers' meet
ing at Woodl urn Saturday it was
hoped would bring early, definite
offers from the buyers. The glow
ers set a low price on their prod
ucts, with the idea of making cer
tain sales. Telephone advice
from Woodhurn last night was t'
the effect that no acceptances
have as yet been made, though
the Puyallun company, that has
some old contracts around Wood
burn, is taking all the berries
grown by these contractors at Un
agreed prim. The price and con
ditions under which the Salem
canneries are to receive berries
are not ev?n yet made public, ex
cept that it is anuounced that th
Producers' company takes them
on a cooperative basis from mem
bers only.
Ktrsiwberics Way Down.
Strawberries sold in Salem Mon
day as low as T cents a box, by
growers who brought their prod
uct to town and found no cannerv
market open They were retailed
from some stores as low as '
boxen for '2- rents.
Whatever the grower may thin'
the user is making the best of the
situation, and many a liom-U eai
ing stravberri"S now that la't
year could hardly afford to look
at the printeo laoels.
