Spokane Refusal to sanction any lowering of the standards of grade and pack featured the annual conference here Thursday of Washington fruit growers. The warmest . fight of the day cen tered around an attempt to allow the putting of worm-Btung apples into the fancy, or No. 2, grade. The Yakima illey delegation led the battle in favor of the plan, but was beaten by a vote of 160 to 20, the opposition being championed by the Wenatehee growers. The fruit men also voted, 90 to 36, to exclude worm-stung apples from the "C" grade. In the heated debate that preceded the vote J. S. Sugrue, of Cavere, leader of the Wenatehee dele gation, said sentiment in his district was that . eventually there would be only two grades of apples, and that the Wenatehee growers favored the estab lishment of a combination grade to in elude both the fancy and "C" grades, He urged that the development of the by-products Industry, preferably by the growers themselves, would have to be depended upon to handle the large ton nage of cull fruit ' ' I Flour Takes Another Jump. The strength of the wheat market In the Pacific Northwest has forced flour prices upward aglan. The' ad vance is 20 cents barrel in patents which puts wholesale quotation at $5. 20. Other domestic grades underwent a similar advance. Export flours are also higher at $4.204.30. .: Millfeed is holding steady in spite of large stocks, as there is excellent demand. Wheat is decidedly strong in all the country markets. Bids on the basis of $1 Coast were made for bluestem, but farmers asked $1.02,andjnore. -f Wheat Outlet Closed. :j The embargo on wheat shipments to Atlantic seaboard terminals is now practically complete, and as the larger part of the buying of late has been for shipment of that character, the result is a material subsidence of activity in the Northwest. Export operations have not entirely ceased, bewever, and it is said there is little buying against the possibility that the embargo will not be of long duration. ' There is also some trade for Eastern milling account, but, on the whole, business passing in the country is of much smaller volume. Coal Boom Expected. Chehalis, Wash. Reports of the possible building of a railroad through the Cascade mountains in the vicinity of the Cowlitz Pass have aroused much interest here, owing to the ownership by Chehalis people, and others, of val uable anthracite coal deposits In that vicinity. These holdings may be sold to Eastern coal operators who are look ing for Western property for develop ment Many who have examined the district declare there is a large tonnage of high-grade coal. No coal has ever been shipped from that field. . Klamath Falls Packing Plant Starts. Klamath Falls, Or. Klamath Falls haa . meat packing plant that began operation this week. The plant is an extension of the operations of the Klamath Packing company,, of this city, and. In addition to supplying Klamath Falls markets, it will ship to California points. An expert packer is in charge. All RAILROAD TBAFfiC RECORDS , BROKEN fOR JH0N1K OF OCTOBER . . Chicago All records in the history of railroad traffic were broken in Octo ber, when the flood of export ship ments for- Europe, coupled with the unusual peak of Autumn activity, gross revenues of United States rail ways were carried to a total of more than $313,000,000. Simultaneously, for the first time in almost two years, expenses recorded an increase over the year . before. These are features of . figures for the month compiled for roads which oper ated mileage' of more :than 256,000 miles, omitting the smaller roads. 3 October, 1912, the previous record month, reported a total of about $306,. 000,000. The old record thus is beat en by about $7,000,000. Striking as this October gross seems against the poor earnings of recent years, it. is SENATOR CHARLES S. THOMAS Senator Charles 8. Thomas of Colo rado, chairman of the senate com mittee on woman suffrage, pacified the suffragist by providing for a hearing before the committee on the Susan B. Anthony amendment removing from the ballot the qualification of sex. noteworthy that the growth in three years since October, 1912, was only slightly more than 2 per cent. -. Since then about 7600 miles of oper ated mileage have been added. Nor mal growth in traffic, with . which single exceptional months .. cannot wholly be compared, is considered about 8 per cent a year. Abnormal conditions in . expenses, which left in September a record- bearking net revenue, continued in October,; and another new high point for net was set at nearly $120,000,000, over $7,000,000 above September's record. - .-" ' .- -- r:" Hardwood Lumber Yard Burns At Portland With Great Loss Damage of probably . $100,000 to $150,000 was caused to the plant of the Emerson Hardwood company, at Twentieth and , North Front streets, Portland, at 1 o'clock Tuesday morn. ing. .'.'-,': :".'. v;.,-i- .,- The fire broke out in a dry kiln at 12:05 o'clock. - One block of the yards burned.' . 1 It was estimated that 200,000 feet of hardwood lumber had been, de stroyed.

French Soldiers View Mementoes of the Downfall of Napoleon, Exhib ited In British Capital, With out Expression of Emotion. , ' Every American visitor to London, probably, makes a call at tbe three storied building -opposite tbe Horse Guard, the former banqueting hall of tbe palace of Whitehall, from a win dow on the second floor of which King Charles I stepped onto the exe cution platform and, after addressing the gathered throng, bravely met his traglo fate, remarks - the , London Times. w- The building Is now called the Royal United Service Museum, and In the main hall, contrasting strangely with the richly figured ceilings by Peter Paul Rubens, are thousands of relics recalling the almost numberless wars In which the manhood of this country has engaged. Yesterday- the writer followed through tbe turnstile of the museum two French Infantry soldiers, on leave from the front, fresh from months of fighting,, side by side with Tommy Atkins, against a common foe. In the great hall, in enormous show cases, are models setting out the exact post-, tions at the battles ot Trafalgar and Waterloo, those historic combats on land and on sea which did so much to mar the fortunes of Napoleon and to shatter the predominant position' of France. .v .i ; In one case, little patches of make believe smoke trace the two lines, the allies and the French, while clusters of tiny red brick houses mark the po sitions of villages of Belgium familiar even to every follower of the present world struggle. ' ' : - In the second case the fleet of Nel son Is shown at the critical moment when, led by the , Vlotory - and the Fighting Temeralre, It pierced the lines of the French and Spanish fleets. Indeed, It seemed to the writer as he hung over the showcases and studied the positions, that Nelson used the "phalanx" as effectively as did Von Mackensen In Gallcia, and aa French and Joffre are trying to-do In France and Belgium now, -V ", But, beside these two caaes,"there are more Immediate -links with ' the French and English past' Nearby Is the skeleton of Napoleon's favorite charger.! In another case la the curved sword worn by Wellington at most of his famous engagements. Many are tbe relics of the peninsula campaign. Here Is the uniform, cape and hat worn by Wellington during the whole peninsula campaign, and "deposited" in the museum by his valet On every side are guns taken from the French, while overhead are battle flags bear ing the scars of honorable warfare. And the two French soldiers viewed It all: without, enmity or unpleasant comment , ,' PROTECTION FOR THE RACER Novel Armored 8ult That It Thought Would Save Llfj in Event of Accident. A pneumatic armor haa been pat ented for the purpose of saving the lives of motor-cycle riders, and par ticularly racers, who, with this pro tective garb, may smash Into each other or dive into a fence without tbe least regard for the consequences. The armor consists of a one-piece suit Of stout material Into which the wear er la laced.'

The latter Is pumped Into the tube in the same manner as a tire Is Inflated, and when It Is desired to pack the suit the air may be allowed to escape so that the outfit will take up as lltUe space as possible. The Inflation and defla tion la done through the means of the check valves at the aleeves and at the trousers' top. ; . Odd Dream Adventure...
