BIG YIELD OF APPLES
FARMERS COMPLAIN OF SMALL
PRICE FOR THEIR CROP.
HAPPENINGS OVER THE STATF
What Is Going on Here and Thero
That Is of Interest to the Read
ers Throughout Nebraska
and Vicinity.
Arlington, Neb. The npplo crop In
iIiIb vicinity Is the largest this season
that It has been for yenrs, hut tho
market Is Tar from satisfactory,
prices being comparatively low with
no local demand, owing to the fact,
perhaps that thero Is no one at this
point mnklng a business ot buying
and shipping.
Thero aro u few orchards near here
whoso owners ship their own apples,
but they aro not buying tho crops of
other orchards. The best market
found so far by theso shippers has
been northwestern Kansas, with n
lighter demand from western Ne
braska, thnn has been tho c.tso for n
good many yearn. Wealthy and Ut
ters havo been bringing from $2 to
$2.25 per standard three-bushel barrel
for cookers. Eating apples lmvo been
In -good demand at $t per bushel box.
Sweet apples $2 per barrel. These
aro fall apples and not what arc
classed as good keepers.
Thero aro a largo number of farm
ers In this locality owning ctcnslve
orchards and they are tho ones who
mnko tho most complaint, many of
thorn being unablo to make any dis
position or their apples, with the re
sult that there are thousands of bush
els going to wasto or being fed to
cattlo nnd bogs. Some of thees farm
ers have sold windfall Wealthy and
Utter, delivered In town, at from 20
cents to 25 cents per bushel, while
tho best offer they enn get from out
side buyers for hand picked fruit Is
.10 cents to 10 cents per bushel.
Just what will be offered for winter
varieties Is a matter of conjecture,
but It Is probablo that the price will
rango around 50 cents per bushel for
hand picked apples closely graded.
Thero has been n decided drop in the
market on fall apples the last ten
days, so there Is poor prospect of the
fnrmer realizing a great deal on his
crop, though even at present prices
tho apples from an acre of fruiting
orchard nro still worth many times
an aero of any other crop.
The Midwest Life.
A mortgage on good Nebraska real
estnto Is conceded to bo as high class
security as a llfo company dan have

tho distinction of having a greater
per cent of its assets In mortgages
than nny other llfo Insurance com

tained this position for tho threo
years It has been In business. On
December 31. 190S, the dato of its hist
annual statement, Tho Midwest Life
had ninety-two per cent of Its total
assets in mortgages, nil on Nebraska
teal estate. This money will stay In
Nebraska and will not ho sent else

company hero at S o'clock Wednesday
evening. Tho loss Is estimated at
nbout $0,000. About .'i.000 bushels of
grain wero burned and tho building

count. Several resldonccs In tho vi

N
FIRST OVERT ACT COMMITTED
AT COUNCIL BLUFFS.
ATTACK ON THE CONDUCTOR
Business Men of Omaha Pledge Sup.
port to Street Car Company
Strike-breakers Arrive and
More on Way.
OMAHA. The first show of vio
lence In the street car strike enme at
Council Bluffs Sundny afternoon, when
a car on the Interurbnn line was de
railed and the windows Bmashod. Con
ductor Doolittle showed n disposition
to resist, and was hit In the face with
a brickbat, sustaining painful but not
serious injury Five persons wero ar
rested during the nfternoon charged
with riotous conduct. Fifty-four men
wore brought to the city from Chicago
Sunday morning and It Is understood
thnt 100 mere were expected to arrlvo
Monday. At 2 o'clock Sunday nfter
noon IJ50 strikers paraded tho princi
pal streets of the city. It is claimed
by union laborers that 200 other men
aro out. but Tailed to show up at head
quarlers in time for the parade. The
mnrchers were liberally applauded by
thousands or spectators who lined the
streets.
At the time the strikers were parad
ing a crowd or probably 2,000 or whoir
not nn Inconsiderable number were
women, bad gathered at the corner of
Fourteenth and Fnrnani streets, for
nn hour or more every car which
passed on either street had to run tin
gauntlet of jibes and Jeers. At first
the trolleys were pullel orr and the
ropes cut so that the conductors were
compelled to climb on top or the cars
to replace the trolleys.
Thero was ono particularly exciting
moment when a loose trolley pole
caught the trolley wire and broke out
allowing the ends, carrying a heavv
current, to drop. Fortunately th"
ciowd taw the danger and qulckh
scattered so that no one was touched
by the live wire.
Finally two patrol wagons brought
twent.v-tlvo or thirty policemen to the
scene and they succeeded In parting
the crowd so ns to rmlt the passing
or cars without further physical moles
tation. Five of those most active In
tho disturbance were anested, but for
the most part the crowd was good nn
tured and the olllcers had no great dif
ficulty in controlling it. Of the fifty
lour men brought In from Chicago a
few were put to work Sunday after
noon, but no great effort was made to
get the service up to the normal. It
Is tindei stood, however, that with the
new men expected to arrive the com
pany will try to run cars on schedule.
Cots were placed In the car barns
Sunday for the use or the Imported
men and arrangements have been
made Tor feeding them at the barns.
After the rioting at Council Mutts
all cars in thai city were taken off and
In this city service was discontinued
at 7 o'clock, as was done Saturday
night.
