The directors of the Walla Walla fruit fair have closed the contract for Wagner's band to furnish the mu sic for the -fruit fair In September. This band baa played for the fair the last two seasons, and has done much toward making the fair a success and the securing of this aggregation again will attract many to this city when the fair opens. Six aggrega tions bid for furnishing the music They were Hoppe's band, of Spokane the Empire Concert band, of the same place; Adlers band, of Taco ma; the British Columbia band, of Victoria; De Caprio's band, of Port land, and Wagner's Military band De Caprio's band had the lowest bid In, but as the company only con sists of 20 pieces, the directors did not consider the bid. Do Not Like It The local dealers in soft drinks do not take kindly to the order from the county attorney closing all places where anything is sold, on Sunday They contend that Ice cream, soda and such things do not come under Lthe head of goods, wares and mer chandise, and It Is likely that a test case will be made. Everything was closed Sunday except Lutcher Bros. They kept open, and declare If infor mation is filed- against them, they, will make a test case of the law. Other dealers will chip in -with them and help pay theexpenses .of the suit. THE LATIMER USE TESTIMONY IN MURDER TRIAL AT NEW YORK WE. IS PROSTRATED. f Millionaire Mackay Has Phy. wani in Attendance.

Will Be Handled by the-Railways, The wheat crop of Umatilla county will soon begin to come into the warehouses and the harvest of gold en grain promises from present indi cations to be' a bumper yield, despite the damage which has been done by wind, heat and blight. Last fall there was a'litttle trouble with' winter wheat on account of in opportune frosts and some little dam age was done but it was not sufil clent to materially affect the yield this season. W. E. McComas, representing the Northwestern Warehouse Company and other well posted parties who have travelled over the country and estimated carefully the amount of wheat to be harvested this season say that it will be somewhere be tween 3,750,000 and 4,000,000 bushels "which will be better than the average yield. Yield Has Been Estimated. In past years the yield has various ly been estimated at from 4,000,000 to 5,000,000 bushels, but the actual crop has failed to come up to the fig ures, it is believed tnat tne present estimate will be close in the neigh borhood of the actual yield. Many hundreds of men will be needed in the harvesting of this great crop, which is close upon one per cent of the total yield of the United States in average years and this season will run a little better than one per cent on account of im mense damage to wheat fields In the eastern portions of the union by fire, flood and drouth. The railways, however, do not an ticipate any difficulty .in handling, the Immense yield of the county as a new system of car handling Is in force this season, -which it Is believed will result in much quicker return of cars from consignees than has been ob tainable heretofore. O. R. & N. Will Have No Trouble. F. F. Wamsley, general agent of the O. R. & N., when seen by an Eastern Oregonlan man said regarding the handling of the wheat crop for this season: "We do not anticipate any trouble this season in supplying sufficient cars to move the crop rapidly and ef flclently. The demurrage system which is In effect this year will force consignees to unload and return their cars much more rapidly than formerly. This system only went In to effect at the last end of the wheat shipping season last year and we did not really get an opportunity to de termine just how much it would af fect the traffic, so we can not have very good estimate of the exact number of cars which will be neces sary to handle the wheat crop this year. Estimates Hard to Get "In fact if you want any kind of an approximately correct estimate of the number of cars which will be in service this year In moving the wheat crop of Umatilla county, it will be necessary to consult the operating department. "Personally, however,. I am of the opinion that there will be less delay in supplying cars and moving consignments than was experienced last season. I cannot give an ac curate estimate of the amount of wheat shipped from Mission this sea son as -the farmers living near that point sometimes bring their wheat to Pendleton for shipment and some times take it to Mission." W.NA C. R. Is Ready. The officials of the Washington & Columbia River line believe that everything has been so arranged that there is plenty of rolling stock and traction on the Pacific division of the Northern and the tie-up of last year will be effectually avoided. The local road will run on timo through out the season as it has done in the past. Last year the trouble was not on the line of the Washington & Co lumbia River road, but after the cars of wheat had- been delivered by that branch system to the parent line. Demurage System Will Help. Not only will the Increased facili ties of the various roads assist in moving the wheat crop rapidly, but there is another power back of the business this year in all lines which will hurry things along, and that is that hereafter the charge will be made of freight cars by the day, and not by the mile of travel, as before. When a road gets hold of a car be longing to another line and has it loaded for shipment and delivery. the charge made by the company owning the car will be for the num ber of days it is in the possession of its competing road instead of the miles it travels. This will result in cars being returned sooner as the charges will naturally reflect on con signees and will force them to hurry their unloading of cars upon delivery. .Hm Road Js Immune. Speaking, of-the possibility of the various lines being tied up by the heavy wheat crop, an official of the W. & C. R. general office said the other day: "No railroad can ever claim that It is immune. There may certain con ditions arise that would tie it up at almost any time and not even the most elaborate preparations can guard against it. Indications now are that the crop will be larger than usual and that the price at the open Ing will border on 50 cents. If there should be a large number of farmers take kindly to this price and unload their grain at once there might fol low just such another tie-up as oc curred last year. But with conditions normal and everything as it should be, our line has guarded against all possible trouble." Amount of Damage Done. Speaking of the damage done by the recent hot winds and storms which have swept over the county Mr. W. E. McComas said this morn ing that the amount of grain Injured was not nearly as great as indicated by most of the reports which have come In. "These reports are generally affect ed by local conditions," said he, "but the general aggregate will be found to be not nearly so great as estimat ed. While one man's crop may be damaged to the extent of 60 or 60 per cent, there will be eight or 10 In his immediate vicinity who will suff er no loss at all. Individual losses have caused the reports of damage to run much higher than the real in jury done and unless I am badly mis taken, the actual damage will not run over two, or perhaps three per cent of the total yield."
