Two Sundays parties who hap- DPened to be near the railroad crossing, the only one in the borough, were wit- nesses to a hair-breadth escape. Three motorcycles came down the hill In the early evening. Two went across all right. The third, with a stranger driving ang carrying a young woman passenger on the rear seat, escaped being run over by one of the evening trolleys by only a hair. People in front of Wolfe's shouted a warning and sev- eral men on the street cried out to him. ~He stopped and that was all. There is no gateman at the crossing Sunday - afternoons. The trolley was moving within the speedylimit and the motorman was blowing his whistle as the law requires. The cyclist's hvr'n was going and he n’t hear, couldn't see, as buildings obstruct the view, and, being a stranger, didn't know. Any other day the gates would have been down. There is no warning bell Both the railroad trafic and the high- way passing is very great at this point. Many narrow escapes have happened and in case of accident it would be up to somebody, with condi- tions as they are at present. August Strawberries.

Fruit Growers Seeking Means to Pro- tect Shipments on Way to =urope. San Francisco, Cal, Aug. 4—The Buropean war has already seriousiy affected the agricultural interests of California, and today the official or- ganizations of fruit growers sought means of protecting fruit to the value | of $1.500,000 now on its way to Burope in British bottoms. Some of this fruit was shipped via the Isthmus of Pana- ma, and the presence ¢f German cruis- ers in the Pacific is giving the shippers much concern. Most of the dried fruit and canned vegetables from California have already reached Germany, where the bulk of such cargoes was consign- ed, but the shipment of fresh fruit is at its height. Plans were started to send fruit products te the Atlantic seaboard by rail in the hope that vessels may be obtained there for tramsporting them to_foreign ports. Graln producers also are affected by the congestion of grain at Port Costa, where several ships awaiting cargoes have refused to accept the shipments from the railrouds.
