Progress Has Been Made In the
Industry.
The great progress that has been
made in the prune industry in this
state in the last few years is indicated
by the machinery which has been put
in operation at the Willamette Valley
Prune Association's
warehouse in
Salem.
In one corner of the ware
house stands an old-fashioned hand
prune grader, of the back-breaking
type It «as capable of handling ten
tons of fruit a day if a gang of men
could keep it going steadily. In the
center of the warehouse la a massive
power grader, 42 feet long and ten
feet high, the most up-to-date machine
for that kind of work. Its capacity is
100 tons a day. In former years the
prunes were loaded on trucks, taken
up to Ul<‘ second floor on an elevator
and emptied into the grader by men
who lifted the sa'-ks of prunes to the
hopper. Now the grader stands on
the third floor.
A continuous chain
carrying cups runs from the base
ment to the top of the grader. On
any floor prunes may be dumped into
a hopper and they are carried up to
the grader without further effort.
From the grader the prunes run
through a steam process from which
they emerge into another hopper and
from this they drop into boxes all
ready for packing.
From
start to
finish manual labor is reduced to a
minimum and nearly all the work is
done by machinery. During the pas
sage of the prunes through the grader
and processor they are cleaned of all
dirt, are made uniform in moisture
and are placed In the boxes bright and
clean.

Thousands are Loaded at Pendleton for
All Parts of th* Wcat.
Pendleton is one of the greatest
sheep shipping centers of the Pacific
slope, railroad . men say. About 100.«
000 sheep have been shipped from and
through that point this season.
A 1
great many more will be shipped Is
tore the winter season comes on, as
the fall movement has just become es-
tablished.
The O. R. * N. reports that 300 cars
had been shipped from and through
that point, while It was ascertained
that the W. & C. R had handled 200
cars. The cars, as a rule, are loaded
with about 240 sheep each.
These shipments are much heavier
now than they were last year at this
time.
The shipments of the entire
country will greatly exceed the ship
ments of last season, for the reason
that there are more sheep in the
country, and feed
is
exceptionally
scarce and sheep raisers are forced
to sell. The season is now fairly
opened and heavy shipments will con
tinue for the next month or so.
Most of the sheep have been ship
ped to Portland on the coast and Seat
tle and other Sound points
Some
have been shipped as far east as St.
Paul. Heavy shipments have been
made to California points.
No res
son is assigned for this extraordinary
activity, beyond the fact that a scarc

Noth

slightest hope of a favorable issue.
A report is current here that the Co

TRAIN IS HELD UP.
Masked Men Blow Open Safe But Oet
Little Beodle.
St. Joseph, Mo., Sept. 24.—Four
masked men, at 10 o’clock tonight,
held np west bound Burlington A Mis
souri River train No. 41, five miles
north of this city. The safe in the ex
press car was dynamited and the car
wrecked. Officials of the road say tne
safe contained but little money. Other
reporte say it contained 35,000 to 310,-
000 in money. Everything in the safe
was taken and the men escaped in the
darkness with horses. A posse was’or-
ganixed and is in pursuit of the banits.
Not a single shot was fired.
The train was stopped by means of a
red light. The engine and express car
were uncoupled from the remainder of
the train and backed half a mile furth
er on where it was dynamited.
The
train was in charge of Conductor Har
vey, who hurried to the city and gave
the alarm. The officers lost no time
in organiizng and making a start. It
was necessary for the entire train to
be brought back bn the city and a new
train made up which left at 1 o’clock.
According to the meager reports re
ceived from the scene of the hold up at
midnight, the instant the train was
stopped, two of the robbers climbed in
to the engine, and with drawn weapons
compelled the engineer a.id fireman to
obey orders. One of the men un
coupled the engine and express car
from the remainder of the train, The
party then climbed into the cab and
the engine and car were run up the
track. The explosion followed,
Aa
soon as the safe was dynamited, the
men dashed to the wrecked car. It is
asserted that they did not get a cent as
a result. The train was loaded with
passengers for the West and the hold
up created a panic.
As soon as the conductor saw the
robliers, he ran back down the track
and secured a hand car on which he
came to St. Joseph and notified the
officers.
