THE FRUIT.GROWERS.
A Market For Choice Prunes ana
ApricOts i'm England.

SAN FRANcIsce, November 29.-At the
monthly meeting of the State Horticui,
tural Society today Leonard Coates, OF
Napa, read paper giving the results OF
his observations during trip through
Great Britain. He said there was
growing demand in England for prunes
and apricots of fine quality. 1t was
thought that prunes could be prohtaoiy
shipped from here to England, where
they would sell we'll. The cost OF snip.
ment by rail or sea would amount to 4
cents a pound. Highly bleached SUI
phured prunss we're not wanted, Grow
ers could rest assured that nothing but
the best qeality of products can
find market in England, and
excessive tu,phuring would work disaster
to California fruits abroad. Moreover,
California fruita, to succeed sbrosd, must
be introduced US a novelty, and not
through the old channels of trade.
Prof. Hileard, in a few remarks, in
dorsed all that was said about excessive
sulphuring.
Several fruit. growers spoke Of the ad-
vanced seaeon, and told of buds on apple
and cherry trees at interior points.
Fred Miles. OF PenryD, and F. FL.
Ihom96, OF Nlsaila, were elcCteu ueln'
bers of the society.
B. N. Rowley, of the. committee APP
pointed to investigate the culture of the
fig in this State, reported that the foot
hill regions were especially adapted to
the growing of the fig. and produce the
finest quality. "These uplands," they
said, ARE in our judgment preferable to
the lowlands of the interior valleys for
successful fig culture. The fruit should
be allowed to thoroughly mature and
ripen upon the tree before it is gathered
Sometimes the Smyrna fig in it's native
home does not pros uce and mature the
true type Of fruit until the eighth or
tenth year from planting. Why should
California growers expect an abundance
in three or four years."

SHOT AFTER THE WEDDING.-The most
deliberate and cold blooded murder 10 the
history cf Vermont has occurred at Mont
pelier by the cowardly killing of George
Gould, young farmer, just twenty four
nours married, by his rival. Wednesday at
East Montpelier, Gould married Laura Cut
Ter, daughter of the late William Cutler, a
wealthy farmer, whose property, as an only
child, she had inherited. Ever since the
war, and up to the time of Cutters death,
there had resided with him on the farm one
James Sherman Caswell a veteran of the
| Thirteenth Regiment, Vermont Volunteers.
He had known Laura from child, and
made love to her when she grew up and
proposed, but had been refused for much
younger end better looking man. Caswel
ihre atened 10 Kill the man she married, but
no attention was paid to this, and the pair
were welded in the town, amid much re-.
joicing Wednesday evening. Yesterday
morning they set out for the brides home,
and, as they were entering the door, Gas.
well, who was secreted behind 1t, stepped
out with a double barreled shotgun and
fred point blank at Gould. blowing away
the eutire lower part of his face. The vic.
tim fell to the ground, and died in few
moments. The murderer coolly put up his
gun, and. gave himself up, saying he was
without friends, and wanted to be hanged.
He claims that for over a year past he has
lived with Laura as her husband, and would
not let any other man take his place. This
is, however, not believed by the friends of
the young girl, who is prostrated.

THE FALL MEETING.

Hoard of Directors of the Assoc ella.
ton Making Arrangements.
The Board of Directors of the Sixth
District Agricultural Fair Association
has been in session during the last two
days, completing arrangements for the
racs-meeting and stock show which will
come off on the 21st of This month. A
committee, consisting Of ]. W. Robinson
and DR.. Wise, weY appointed to plan
substitutes for the two races which have
been declared off: Race of the 2:2O
class, which failed to fill, and the stallion
2 20 class guarantee purse, which came
to sae same fate.
Rodman & Co. were given the priv.
ilege of selling pools on the grounds dur
ing the races. The appointments were
made of various officers about the grounds,
ticket sellers, etc. Captain Emil Harris
was selected to have charge of the
mounted guard.
The Secretary read a statement of the
finances showing that the total deficiency
thus far was $2S6.92. 81. M. La Rue
and j. @. Newton were chosen to act az

petual injunction having been made and
entered. The motion is in effect q
motion to dissolve the injunction pend
ing the appeal, though termed motion
to stay proceedings. Such order, l am
of opinion, the Court is without power to
make. The law regulating appeals does
not provide for q stay of proceedings in
q suit of this kind, and the reason is
plain.
The Judgment needs no execution. Ii
acts directly without process upon the
defendant. Again, the judgment is
based upon the idea that the defendant,
by the operation of it's road, was hiring
ing rights of plaintiff, for which compen-
sation could not be computed or afforded
in the shape of damages. 1t would be
absurd, therefore, to allow the defendant
to continue the operation of its road upon
| it's executing a bond conditioned to pay
any damage that might be occasioued
thereby.
That it is beyond the power OF the
Court to grant such an order, seems to be
the view taken in Sixth-ave. R.R. Go. We.
Gilbert Elevated Railroad Company, II
New York, 421. There defendant was
enjoined from building it's road upon
Sixth avenue. Defendant appealed, and
procured an order staying all proceedings
on the part of plaintiff pending the ap-
peal, upon execution of an undertaking
for the payment of damages occasioned
by the stay. The Court, in their opin.
ion, say that "the appeal, with the stay
of proceedings, did not affect the validity
Tor effect Of the judgment pending
the appeal 60 far as it bore
upon and restrained the action oil
the defendant, it's servants or agents.
That the Judges order staying proceed
ings only operated to prevent the collec.
ton of costs. That it did not, and could
not, derogate from the efficiency of the
Judgment in its operation upon and
efectually restraining all acts by defend.

An Important Decision Against
McLaughlin,s Dummy Road.

mCAauR num'e Dummy Road.
1t will doubtless be remembered that a
short time ago Judge Clark rendered
judgment restraining the Cahuenga Val.
ley Railway Company from operating its
road within the limits of the city, on the
ground that the same was a public
nuisance, and was being operated with
out lawful authority. An appeal has
been taken in the case by the defendant.
and motion was made before Judge
Clark to stay all proceedings on the part
of plaintiff pending this appeal, upon de-
PENDANT filing such bond as the Court
would require, and to permit the de-
fendant to operate his road pending the
appeal.
The question involved was, whether
the niss priss Judge has power to grant
such motion, that point never having
been directly adjudicated in the courts.
Judge CLARK, in denying the motion,
rendered the following opinion:
Defendant moves the Court to be al
lowed to operate ite railroad, pending an
appeal to the Supreme Court.
The suit has proceeded to final judg-
mont in this court, 9 Judgment If per-
