SYMPATHY WITH STRIKERS.
This Grows but Otherwise There Is
Small Change in T. & G.
TONOPAH, April 6.—There have
been few changes in the local strike
situation during the past 24 hours.
The strikers and their sympathisers
gather at all trains but. no violence
has been offered.
A number of arrests have been
made of men brought in by the rail
road company, claiming to be offi
cers but without proper credentials
to bear out their claims. They are
being tried this afternoon on charges
of carrying concealed weapons.
Corrigan and Phillips, represent
ing the railway brotherhoods, are
this afternoon explaining to the press
the position of the railroad men and
the alleged refusal of the company to
accept the arbitration offered them
Sunday.
There is some talk of local business
men routing all their shipments over
the Tonopah and Tidewater railroad
and cutting out the Tonopah and
Goldfield railroad.
Citizens generally favor the strik
ers in this controversy. It Is pos
sible that this sympathy will take a
practical form. One strikp breaker
was rotten-egged as he was coming
out of a local barber shop this after
noon and only protection of the chief
of police saved the barber shop from
being wrecked.
DAMAGE OX CUT-OFF.
How the Wind and Wat«‘r Have Got
ten in Their Work.
The Ogden Examiner tells of the
storm damage suffered by the S. P.
on the Lucin cut-off as follows:
The two storms within the past
eight days have been very similar in
character and in the amount of dom
age done in that practically the same
districts have been ofTected each time.
In the last storm the damage be
tween Little Mountain and Bagley, a
distance of five miles, is more exten
sive than the former one. It is the
first time in the history of the cut-ofT
that the east side of the cut-off has
been damaged by the lake storms.
From the east end of the trestle to
Salina and from Rambo to the west
end of the trestle the fills were again
undermined and weakened.
The wind reached a velocity of 7 2
miles an hour and sent great waves
against the railroad embankments.
The total distance damaged in the
recent storm is placed at ten miles.
To repair the damage, the company
has eight work trains hauling bal
last and rock from the Lakeside
quarries, the longest haul of the
work trains being about thirty miles.
All the available work trains from
various points upon the division have
been pressed into service for the re
pairing of the damage. Two shifts of
men are working night and day. The
gravel pit at Lakeside is lighted by
electricity. Two steam shovels of
the most modern type are gradually
eating into the sides of small moun
tains of rock to get material to empty
into the lake.
The announcement was made at
the local offices of the Southern Pa
cific company yesterday that the line
will be opened this afternoon. Dur
ing the temporary suspension of
traffic across the lake, the old Cen
tral Pacific line around the head of
the lake is again in use. Beginning
Sunday afternoon, passenger trains
were sent over the old line. The fact
that the rails are lighter and the
roadbed Is not in the best of shape
between Kelton and Umbria Junction,
a schedule of not exceeding twenty
miles per hour Is maintained. The
trains are hauled by the light englneB
of the old class between Ogden and
Montello. At the latter point tbe
trains are given the heavier or Pa
cific type engine.
The running time of trains be
tween Ogden and Montello by the
way of the o’d line, 164 miles, is
eight hours, while the distance by
the cut-off is 120 miles and the time
Is three hours and twenty-one min
utes of the fast mall to four hours
and forty minutes for the local train.
The line across the lake does not
have a one per cent grade while that
on the old line reaches about three
per cent on Promontory hill.
Following the storm of last Mon
day, General Manager Bancroft is
sued orders for the improving and
building up of the old line around
the head of the lake, to be ready for
use in cases of emergency. The an
nouncement Is made that a coal shute
and water tank will be placed at
Kelton, water tanks and telegraph
offices will be placed at other points,
new Bidetracks will be put in and
the old line practically rebuilt.
In order to rush the work upon the
old line, a work train will leave Og
den this evening with carpenters and

WHICH WILL YOU PLANT?
Cheap trees, grown by unskilled nurserymen, or will you plant Stark Trees, the
best trees that modern nursery science can produce and insure yourself a highly
productive and profitable orchard?
“Stark Trees are the Best Trees Grown”
Ii the unanimous opinion of orchardisls in all parts of the country—the thousands of letters in our files prove it. This year
our stock is better than ever. Never before in our history of H4 years have we put in our packing houses such fine trees as
have come to us this fall from our nine branch plants. These trees are absolutely dependable, quality the very finest; in fact,
we challenge comparison and competition. Stark Trees have been proven and tested for many yean by orchardisls in all
parts of the West and Southwest and our trade in that wondrous section is increasing each season.
Stark Delicious Apple
Brings 50% More Than Grimes or Jonathan
in quality, size and color, Delicious long ago proved itself the queen of all quality apples. This year has seen its greatest
triumph, which you will understand by reading this letter.
• H. WOODS CO.* Commission Merchants* Chicago#
“Last year we secured one car of Delicious and aold them in Chicago and large Kaatern cities at 40X more than other varieties we were handling
at that time. We are selling Delicious this year at 502 more than Jonathan, Grimes (•olden, Rome lleauty, Alrtamlrr, etc Wr have found
Delirious to be juat what particular people wan* in a fine table apple, it being neither too sweet nor too sour, a line looker, and has good
keeping qualities. Delicious should head the list of all fine apples." Signed, C. W. Wilmeroth, Treasurer.
Can You Afford to be Without an Apple Making Such a Record?
If you have never teen or tailed thii variety, we will gladly lend you a box containing three ipecimeni if you will pay the ex*
press chargei. We make no charges for the fruit. After you have received the apples, retain the receipt you get from the expreaa
company and we accept it as that much cash on the first order for trees you send in. This offer for free specimens is also good
tor such of our other leaders as, Stayman Winesap, Senator, Black Ben, Spilzcnburg etc., etc., as long us the supply lasts.
Other Stark Leaders for Western Planters
Beside* Delicious, our varieties such as King David, Senator, Stay man Winesap, Black Ben, etc., arc making good everywhere
and commanding highest prices. Muir, Lovell, Levy Cling, Crawford, Liberia and Krummcl peach are extra fine this year—tree*
are the finest we have ever seen, In Apricot, such sorts as Royal, Blenheim and Tilton are extra choice. Barticli,
Cornice, Laster Beurre pear, etc., are excellent; in fact our whole line of general nursery stock is moat complete and unex
celled. The prices are right too. And remember that every Stark Tree has our reputation of 84 years behind it.
¥ T* From our grape nuraeriet at Portland, N Y. (in the very heart ol the famoua Chautauqua Grape Belt) are simply
f *f Pfl DP y inCS perfection this year. The teason haa been favorable to growth and perfect vine* with unsurpassed roots is the re
W*w Mresult. Our itock includes all standard varieties as well as the Stark Leaders as Eclipse, Moor Larly, Worden,
Wilder, Banner. Diamond. Niagara, Lutic, Lindlcy, Norton, Gynthiana, etc., etc. Our Gooseberry and Gurrint are also grown at our Portland nurseries
—you will find them the best that money will buy.
Here is What Your Fellow Orchardists Say About Stark Trees
"Delicious apple is a surprise to me; ‘the proof of the pudding Is the rating.' There ere thousands of acres of poor varieties set out in this
valley, and they will find it out a few years hence."—A. R. Teepic, (’haves Co., New Mexico.
The 1000 trees you sent me were very fine. Jonathan, very nice, even growth; Grimes and King David, the best lot of trees I have ever plant
ed, without exception—all are living.—Hon. Parker Earle, Ex Prea't Am. Pomological Society, Chaves Co., New Mexico.
I received your trees in good shape, and it la the finest lot of trees I have ever seen.—Juliua Wellenhautcn, Cochise Co., Arixona.
Trees obtained of you have been true to name, all have grown and done well.—H. S Gilbert, Humboldt Co.. Nevada.
Bought trees of you four years ago nnd am well pleased. I have the beat orchard in the neighborhood. Of the 270 trees I bought last winter
three died, the rest doing fine. Were on the road 31 daya and I never saw trees in better condition.—J. D. Urban, Stonewall Co., Texas.
The experience of the most successful orchardists everywhere, especially in (he wesl,
VJI1C- A. Val J. iVVS have proven that one-yesr trees are best because they arc more adaptable, health,
ier, make quicker and stronger growth, come into bearing younger and are the most prolific producers. To meet the in
Creasing demand for one-year trees, we are clearing millions each seasonand this year a finer lot of trees were never dug from the
nursery row. Clean, straight, well-rooted, these trees form the best basis for the ideal commercial orchard. Send us your list of wants.
We Pay Freight and Guarantee Safe Delivery
We also box and pack free and these points coupled with the fact that we have fast daily refrigerator freight service
