San Francisco, May 19.—The Atlantic fleet of battleships, after 12 days of naval pageantry and merrymaking in San Francisco, sailed yesterday morn ing at 10 o ’clock for Puget Sound, ar riving off Seattle on May 21. One-half of the ships will dock at Bremerton navy yard while at the north, and the others will return here for repairs and painting beneath the w ater line. Play days in Puget Sound will be over half the month, and then the of- ncers and men will resume the usual routine of man o ’ war life. Orders call for the reassembling of the fleet in San Francisco harbor not later than July 3. On July 7 the fleet will sail for Hono lulu. and after a w eek's stay there will go direct to Auckland. The Pacific fleet of armored cruisers, under command of Bear Admiral Day- ton, sailed south Sunday morning at 8 o'clock, and Rear Admiral Sperry, in command of the Atlantic fleet, hoisted for the first time his commanding flag of blue. Being junior in lineal rank to Admiral Dayton, Admiral Sperry was compelled by naval regulations to fly a subordinate flag of red so long as the Pacific fleet remained at this station. The long line of armored cruisers, which sailed for Santa Barbara, was headed by the flagship W est Virginia, and included the Colorado, Maryland, Pennsylvania. Tennessee, Washington and California. The protected cruiser Charleston, flagship of Rear Admiral Swinburne, also sailed with the fleet, but her destination is Monterey. OREGON STATE ITEMS OF INTEREST F R U IT P R O S P E C TS G O O D .

Cobb, of the Douglas County Fruit Growers’ association, shows the fruit crop in the Umpqua valley will be very good this year. The straw berry crop is good, and the berries are coming in pretty fast now. The peach crop is fair, and the last frost was a detrim ent in only a very few sections. The pear crop is fair. Apples will be good. The prune crop will also be good, as only a few of the small sections of the county were late enough to be caught by the frost. The cherry crop is good. All kinds of berries are ex cellent. The crop in general was not damaged to any noticeable extent, and the fruit growers are greatly pleased to note that this section, while it was reported to have been damaged by the late frost, will be as good or even bet ter than last year, and will be first in the m arket with all kinds of berries and cherries. Many large shipments of ber ries will be made to Portland the la«tter part of the week. Several small ship ments have already been made. The local m arkets will be supplied with home-grown fruits of all kinds from now on. Portland.—County judges aud com missioners of all the counties of Ore gon, as well as all the commercial or ganizations of the state have been sent a letter by tho Oregon-Alaska-Yukon- Paciflc commission in which the commis sioners ask for co-operation in making Oregon's exhibit at the Seattle show the greatest state exhibition at next y ea r’s big exposition. The commissioners set forth th at Ore gon will have the most complete state building at the fair, and th at the co operation of the officials in securing thorough and attractive exhibits of Or egon’s resources will be imperative. The letter which has been sent by the commision through President Wehrung is in part as follows: ‘‘The expense to your county in col lecting such an exhibit will not be large. Get a live man to take hold of the work and push it, bearing in mind that it Is quality not quantity th at is wanted. A fter you have gathered your exhibit we will transport it to Seattle, install and maintain it without further expense to your county; we will als*' place an attendant in charge, and will keep in close touch with you during the fair, so that your county will get all the benefit possible in the way of ad vertising, etc. “ The commission is also having printed a 96-page booklet on the re sources of Oregon, which will be dis tributed during the exposition. Two pages of this booklet will be devoted to each county. We also intend to show by moving pictues the farms, orchards, livestock, timber, mountains, streams and everything of interest in each county. We must have you* help and co-opera tion in the gathering of your exhibit. If we were compelled to buy these ex- hibts the state would have to double its present appropriation, but with your assistance we hope to carry out our present plans without asking for any further apppropriation." Klamath Canal Holds W ater. K lam ath Falls.—Klamath county land holders will pay but $1.50 an acre for w ater again this year. It is expected that 10,000 acres will be signed under the tem porary arrangement, and if more is signed the rate will be reduced, as it is intended to charge only for maintenance and operation. Next year the regular rates will prevail. W ater is now flowing in the main eanal, and out very little trouble has been experi enced with the breaking of banks.

Klam ath Falls.—The outfit of Maney Bros., contractors on a portion of the south branch federal reclamation canal, has arrived overland from Nevada. A large force was brought in w ith the outfit, and a substantial camp is being made six miles from Klam ath Falls. Maney Bros, have the reputation of rushing work, and it is probable they will take on addition work before the season is over.

May 15.—Pursued by meu and bloodhounds, three robbers with $35,000 of loot in their possession, are fleeing through the rugged mountain passes north of French, a little station 89 miles from East Las Vegas, N. M., on the Santa Fe railroad, in an effort to escape the clutches of the law A t French, late last evening, they broke down the doors of the depot, bound and gagged the station agent and special guard, blew open the safe, took the money and rode away, leaving their vietims helpless. A tram p wandered into the station half an hour later, released the almost unconscious men and gave the alarm. The news of the daring robbery was wired to every town in the neighbor hood of French, and a special train bearing 30 deputies and 50 horses left East Las Vegas in half an hour, hot on the trail of the fleeing robbers. A special with four men left Dawson also, and a message was sent to the terri torial penitentiary at Santa Fe for bloodhounds, which were brought through as fast as a special engine and car could carry them. The stolen money was sent from Al buquerque to pay the coal miners at Dawson, N. M. 'GOVERNORS UNITE Plan Permanent Organization to Hold Regular Meetings.
