Spectacle scam nets operator forty dollars in Inland Empire
A simple skin game in Walla Walla netted the operator 40 dollars from a victim named John Woods who was duped into cashing a 67 40 check for spectacles. Woods discovered the loss after visiting Farmers Savings Bank where the check was cashed and credited. A John Cox warrant is now with Sheriff Haviland as the investigation continues. The report notes broader optimism about Yakima fruit and vegetable production compared with crop profits elsewhere.

Jute Mills Overloaded In Calcutta Report
Consul General Michael reports from Calcutta that twenty three jute mills on the Hooghly have piled up stock valued at 12 762 435 dollars as of July 1907. The previous years show 7 055 146 dollars in 1906 and 9 601 303 dollars in 1905. A Calcutta trade paper questions the wisdom of heavy stocking given high interest and insurance costs and weight loss, though mills have largely profited since start.
