Small Fruits Abundant,

The Philadelphia Ledger says: As
usual at this time Of year small fruits
are in market in great abundance. On
Saturday many of the wholesale callers
along Dock and in other business To-
calities had more ripe currAnts on their
hands than they knew what to do with.
The supply Is received from New York
State and the ciop this year is said to
be larger than was ever known before.
AS the fruit was fully ripe, the dealers
were unusually anxious to get rid of 1t,
as 1t would not keep over Sunday and,
despite offers of a ten pound basket OF
fine large fruit for 80 cents, there were
hut few purchasers and hundreds OF
baskets, 1t is said, will be fit only for
the mash tub" this morning. Guilt
waited blackberries were also very
plenty, at prices ranging from to &
cents quart. Whortleberries are very
ine this season and sales were made at
from TO cents a quart Raspberries
are about over, those remaining on the
vine being, 1t is said, too soft for
shipment In good order. The supply OF
peaches is increasing, and the receipts
are off larger size as the season ad
vances, but 1t is claimed that but few
of tie are of merchantable quality.
They come from Maryland and sell at
from 81 to $l25 a basket. Very fine
oxhearts and bloodhesrt cherries, from
New York State, are In market, at
about 10 cents pound.

mental in having bill passed refund
ing money paid by owners of oyster
vessels as tonnage tax. Certificates
amounting to 81 800 were entrusted to
him for collection. He had them
cashed, but failed to make returns. He

To the Editor of the Dispatch
The widespread earthquake of the
night Of August 3lst, 50 far north OF the
tropics, has suggested to my mind that
the connection of the two continents
by telegraphic communication may have
had something to do with it. The gene
raj spread seemed from east to west,
and was most severe in the cities
those along railroads, principally, with
Geographic communication, were most
violently shocked. The earth is a
great magnet, and the principal tele
graphic connections run east and west
at right angles with it. A few days
ago five or six cities in Greece were said
to have been destroyed by an earth
quake. | throw out this as q mere sug-
gestion to scientists. I.
