purchased of the Slaughter estate a
piece OF ground on Washington street
between Commercial and South Sec
ond streets, i5x60 feet in size, for
sl0.5o0. 1t was covered by two shan

office for the erection of three-story
wooden building on the property. The
contract was let to the contractor who
is putting up the MeAndrews building

THE BANANA TRUST.
Not Greatly Feared-A Better Mode
of Shipment

NEW York, Sept 1.-The report that a
trust had been organized by tropical fruit
dealers of New Orleans did not create much
concern among the banana importers of
this city. George II. Richardson, selling
agent Of the Atlas steamers, which bring
TO this port an average OF eight cargoes of
bananas per month, stated that he was
aware OF the attempt on the part OF certain
English firms to organize big trust for the
control OF the tropical fruit trade. bu; he
did not believe IL could succeed. because
of the fruit being perishable. II bananas
could be stored Ike sugar or goods Of that
character a trust might cause some alarm.
The English trust embraced the cOnstruc-
ton 81 ships capable Of carrying 5000 70
900 punches. and the bananas hung up.
At present the largest vessels were able TO
bring only 1900 lunches in layers.
