THE APPLE CROP.
where the Principal supply
Comes From.


Philadelphia Ledger
Last year New York State furnished
the bulk of the apple crop of the United
States; this wear the crop is a failure in
that State, and what few it does pro-
duce are of inferior quality. Michigan
looms I'D as the banner apple-bearing
State this year, its crop. MIR. Hellings
estimates, being 100000 barrels, the
heaviest crop it has produced tor ten
years. This apple product of Michigan,
is, it is thought over half the product OF
the United States. Southern Illinois has
raised fair crop. but the fruit IS
"cloudcd" and otherwise inferior, while,
on the contrary, the Michigan product is
the finest ever grown anywhere, ana OF a
greater number of varieties. Mr.. He'll
ings' advIces from the West are to the
effect that the crop is being shipped
away very rapidly, not only to the East
but to the farther West. The growers
are disposing of their fruit at once, only
keeping over enough for their own use.
Mr.. Helhngs also stated that his firm
was shipping apples to Boston and New
York AT an advance over Philadelphia
prices. ooo,
Last year Europe received 1900 600
barrels, and so greatly are American
apples preferred there that its people are
already clamorng for them even at the
advanced price. The indications are
that so much of the reduced crop OF this
wear will be exported as to make
severely lelt scarcity in this country
later in the season. New York Stat'
alone produced 100000 barrels last
wear, to few or almost none at all thl'
year, and had not Michigan come to th'
rescue apples this season would have
been a luxury instead of a necessity.

HELPING THE TRIANGLE.
Money Raised for the Defence in
the CrOnin Case.

CHICAGO, November 3.-An open meet
ing of Irishmen was held at McCoy's
hotel TODAY, at which 1916 was col
lected for the purpose of seeing thai the
prisoners now on trial for their lives be-
lore Judge Mcconnell, he supplied with
lhc means to make proper and legal de-
lcnse." About 100 men were present,
and when the object of the meeting had
been stated, Chairman p. v Fitzpatrick,
who keeps a small store on Twenty
second street said he believed it the proper
thing for every Irishman present to put
his hand in his pocket and give as much
us he was able for the purpose OF seeing
Justice done. The suggestion was re-
ceived with a shout, and money was
handed in as fast as the treasurer could
enter the amounts on his books. The
men who subscribed looked as ii they
needed all the money they earned to buy
food for themselves and families; one
gave 500, several gave SO, two gave 81
and all the rest so cents. The following
was unanimously adopted:
"Resolved, That this meeting author
lied the committee to solicit subscrlp
tions from l. ishmen to create fund toI
the purpose of procuring ta1r and I'M
partial trial for certain of our country
men now in Jail, accused of crime, ant
who are poor and unable to MAKE
proper defense for want of money; and
while not going into the question OF gull
or innocence, we desire that justice b'
allowed freedom of action

Rritish Grain Trade.

= LONDON, November 4.-The Mark Lane
Express in its weekly review of the Brit
ish grain trade says: There has been eX-
tensive buying of English wheat, and
prices have been maintained. Sales OF
English wheat during the past week
were 6S, ,662 quarters, at 3Os. Sd. against
81 ,912 quarters at 32s. 3D. during the
corresponding week of last year.
Flour is weak under large American
imports.
Foreign wheats are hard of sale, Cali
forniau, Russian and Indian are sold at
slight decline.
There is brisk business in barley, ant
prices have advanced one penny.
Corn is steady, oats, beans and peas
are firm.
At to-day's market English wheat wa'
firm and scarcer, prices advanced Is
American wheat was firm, but cheaper
Indian was steady. Russian was firm
Flat corn was shade stronger.
There was larger inquiry for barle.
and prices rose Is. :,
Rice was 6 pence dearer, oats dull
Flour was firm despite the increase ii
American shipments.

THE TOBACCO MARKET.
The Excellent Average Prices
Paid During October,

Mr. Z. |. Holmes, the secretary of the
Ashevillc Tobacco Association, gives us
the following official figures for the
month of October
No. of pounds ld.....................332 1872
Aggrcgating in money.........$52, ,317.63
Average price per hundred...".......$15.75
This certainly presents a most crafty
ing showing for Ashevile as market.
The average of $3.50 per hundred is al
most equal to any for ner prices for the
same month in the history of this city
as a tobacco centre, and should lead our
farmers to conclude that they can do as
we'll, if not better, by placing their to-
bacco on the floors of Asheville ware
houses than by sending it to foreign mar
kets where they can in no way superin-
tend the disposal of it.
1t is rarely the case that so much to-
bacco is placed on the market so early in
the season, yet we are told by those COM
pctent to know that it is thought one
half of the entire crop will be sold before
christmas. This is not only thought by
tobacco tobacco buyers here, but we
learn that Danvile and other tobacco
markets are being crowded in the sane
way, and it may be stated with almost
certainty, that the crop of this State and
Virginia will be nearly if not quite half
sold by January first.
