V, t The pains were so

I took three more bottles of it and got
well so I could work all the time. I

Chicago "Who ia to blame?"
Chicago faces a task of fixing the
responsibility for the Eastland ca
While divers are still groping on the
river bed and in the hold of the East
land for bodies of victims, while the
morgue are filled with lamentations
of bereaved and cemeteries are receiv
ing a harvest of death, all authorities j
having jurisdiction will open their investigations.
Tbe federal government, state,
county and city will search for causes
of the disaster. They will determine
who waa guilty of negligence and take
steps for the punishment of those re
sponsible.
"Who Is to blame?" is the vital
question to which the combined au
thorities will aeek an answer.
The chief questions to be settled are :
Was the Eastland overcrowded? . If
so, who is to blame? '
Waa its water ballast out of adjust
ment! u so, woo is to blame?
Was the earrybur capacity of the
Eastland overrated by the inspectors
of the Federal government? If so,
who ia to blame? Was the hull of tbe
vessel modeled on lines giving tbe
requisite stability? If not, who is to
blame for granting it a permit?
Tacoma In a few day there will be
an unusual scarcity of watermelona on
the local market, according to some
commission man. Tbe growers are
aaid to have miscalculated the melons
ia the fields and made big orders thy
could not fill. As a result dealers have
canceled all order for Southern melons
and will await the arrival of melons
from Fresno and Tut lock. Report
from the northern sect Ion say the
melon crops are large and when once
the commodity begins rolling la there
will be plenty on hand.
Fancy green corn ia moving out ' a
never before on the local boards. The
commodity ia coming from Eastern
Washington and ia juat the aaise as If
it was grown in local field, arriving
her lee than 24 hour after it haa
been picked. The corn la now moving
at 25 cent a dosen, aaid to be a rea
sonable price at this time of the sea
ton. Cherries are just about through.
Lamberts and Binga ara no longer on
the market What few eberriee are
to be had are of the Royal Ann and
Late Duke varieties, going at 8 and 0
cents a pound, respectively.
It will not be long now before Mala
ga grape begin arriving from the
South. Already there are some Sweet
water grape to be bad at 12 a erate.
They ara small and good and the trad
haa taken to them instantly. Report
from tbe South say the crop of grapes
this season is about the same aa last
year. ...
Eggs are firm and another rise would
not be surprising, i , :
Butter is the same, but if the hot
weather continues s rise may be expected..
