MILLION DOLLARS CAPITAL EMBRACES THE ENTIRE PA- CIFIC COAST. The Corporation to Pack and Market the Crop and Maintain the Highest Rossible Prices. Special Dispatch to The Call. SAN JOSE, Jan. 28.—The Pacific Coast Frult Association, having for its | object the handling of the entire prune crop of California, Oregon and Wash- ington, was formally organized here to- day with a capital of $1,000,000. The | stock is divided into 100,000 shares of | the par value of $10 each. Articles of | incorporation will be filed, and the fol- | lowing board of directors has been | named for that purpose: D. M. Dclmas.! president; D. F. Graham, secretary; \\'.] P. Cragin, Philo Hersey, S. R. Johnson, | C. W. Childs, Jar.es Farweil, E. A.| Hayes, ¥. W. Crandall. This board is | only temporary, and as soon as incor- | poration is effected a meeting will be | called and directors chosen who will | represent all sections of the Pacific | Coakt. In combining the prune-growers of | on_and Washington in | t Fruit Association the will be materially ad- fruit industry vanced, the market swrengthened and growers obtain better prices for their product. It is to become active and op- erative with 75 per cent of the prune men of the three States cnrolled. and from the interest already manifested this will be but a few weeks hence. The organization does not propose to “bear” the market. but will transact its business with and through the exist- ing channels of trade. The by-laws and constitution and the contract which the growers enter into with the association are similar to those of the Raisin Growers' Association. The agreement between the growers and the association will be in supstance as follows: The grower agrees to trans- fer to the association 5 per cent of the crop of prunes now growing or to he | grown during the years 1899 and 1900. | In consideration of this transfer the as- sociation agrees to undertake the pack- ing and sale of the entire crop and to establish and maintain uniform grades of prunes and packing to be done in conformity therewith; also to make trades under its own trademark and guarantee the quality and to make said sales as speedily as possible and at the highest obtainable prices. The associa- tion agrees to store the crop and to keep it insured pending sale, and to ad- vance money to pay the expense of pracking and storing. The grower must care for and cultivate at his own ex- pense said crop and cure it to the satis- faction of the inspector of the associa- tion and deliver it at some packing- | house selected by the association. After the crop shall have been delivered the association agrees to advance to grow- ers 1 cent per pound on their crop, such advance to bear interest at a rate not exceeding 8 per cent; the prunes of all growers shall be mixed and sold in that manner and shall be accounted for at an average price for the entire year and payments made as soon as the pro- ceeds are received. It is provided that should the grower fail to carry out his part of the contract the association may without legal process take control of the crop and market it. DAY GETS THE OFFICE.

SAN QUENTIN, Jan. 28.—The order of Warden -Hale: forbidding guards to visit saloons has resulted in a new complica- tion. J. R. Robinson threatens w _sue the Warden for causing his business’ to be boycotted. Some time ago Hale and Rob- inson had a disagreement because the lat- ter refused to vote to suit the head of the prison when acting as delegate to the Republican _county convention. _Since then they have been. at dagger points. Robinson™ asserts that the order forbid- ding the guards to visit a saloon was made to apply only to his resort and that of the notoriety gained by the sults con- | the men were even forbidden to enter there to purchase groceries. He asserts that his business will be ruined as a re- sult of what he terms a boycott on the part of Warden Hale, ‘‘practiced to help him retain his position,” and went to San Rafael to-day to see an attorney with the intention .of bringing suit - against Hale for boycott - - . “
