New Deal for Chica 90.

CHICAGO, June 27.-rhere was tremen-
dous public sale of california fruits in this
city to-day. 1t was virtually the inaugura.
ton Of the auction system of handling
fruit in his market, for though the sales
have been going on for near'y week the
experiment. was too new to the buyers
in attendance to be said to be
really under way until this morn.
ing. Heretofore one firm has had practic-
ally the monopoly, so far as Chicago and
the vast territory tributary is concerned, of
the entire product OF the great California
orchards. These purchases were by private
sale, and the result was, that the ira ffic here
was stunted from IT'S birth. Generally
money could be realized and profits or
losses counted by the growers in Califor.
MIA only after weeks of DELAY. when the
final consgnee, in some outlying town
from Chicago, had been at last rounded up
single handed by the sole agent of the Cal
ifurnians in this city.
Hundreds of boxes were knocked dowr
this morning in Il minute, and the cash
was 10y the terms of the sale, available on
the spot.
Three cars, the total arrivals to-day,
brought gross average price OF $l42 per
ton A noticeable feature of the auction
was that the sales were not confined To
Chicago or the west, but large quantities
were taken by agents for Canada. and even
Boston, New York and Philadelphia.
The sales to-day carries with them tho
belief that Chicago will hereafter be Cali
fornias principle fruit market.
5. Page, a well-knowa dealer, happened
to be the first interviewed. He was very
enthusiastic, ~ think" he said, THAT
Chicago is now going to be the market for
California fruit and L have commenced
Issuing letters to all my correspondents
soliciting their trade. We can do some
thing now and build up a trade, where be.
fore the market was all but closed to us.
NJ. Ostagg, Of Ostagg & Co, vino was one
of the heaviest bidders on the floor, stop
ped long enough to say, ''rhis beats selling
one box at "a and hundred at almost
nothing. Why, where the people have
eaten one case Of California fruit they will
soon eat ten. Everybody will want it when
| they don't have to wait for it to be rotten
before they can afford to buy it. Instead
of II luxury for the few it will be the staple
for the many. The growers will be bene-
| fitted more than anybody else, for they
will get good fair average price Tor every.
thing, with quick returns"
| Similar views were expressed by repre-.
sentatives ofGaribaldi, Cunes Il Co. r. A.
Thomas & Sons, Dunley, Clapp & Doe,
and many others. The firm which had
the monopoly of the product of seven
hundred California growers, Porter Bros,
intimate that they at first feared it would
hurt their business, but were pretty well
| satisfied that the enormously increased
traffic almost certain to ensue before long,
| would more than compensate it.
