CALIFORNIA FRUIT.


Favorable Mention of Its Advance
by New York Papers.
The New York papers in their com.
mercial columns frequently call atten.
ton in these days to the strides that are
being made by the California fruit for.
cling it's way into prominence in the east
ern markets. A recent number of the
New York Sun says:
"The California fruit trade in this CITY
has increased over tenfold in three years,
and the product of the Pacific Slope
orchards and vineyards is now Compel
ing with the domestic fruit product and
beating it out of it's own boots, 20 to
speak, in spite of $500 miles of disad-
vantage under which the Californians
labor in comparison with local growers,
Of course this doesn't mean that Cali
fornia fruit is undertaking domestic
fruit in the New York markets,
but that when domestic fruit is
at it's prime and most abundant all
of the California product that can be got
here sells in competition with it at
prices from two to three times higher,
and the California grower, despite the
$500 miles of freighting to a market,
gets q much better net return than does
the fruit-raiser of Delaware, New Jersey
and other eastern orchard districts.
There is every indication, beside, that
the California fruit business here is COM
paratively but in its infancy, and that it's
future growth, so far as bulk of importa-
tons is concerned, will be as'startling as
that of the last three years. This growth
will undoubtedly lower the prices OBJ.
tainable for the California product, but
probably not below figures at which the
Pacific Slope growers will be able to net
2 fair profit, while local producers are
along from hand to mouth az
for several years past"

Lines from Lockhart.

Special to the Statesman.
LooKHART, May 15.-On Monday night
last we had a magnificent display of celes-
tial pyrotechnics accompanied with rain
and some hail. The rain was gratefully
received by all, and the hail was too light
to do any material injury. During the
storm two calves we're killed by lightning
near Doctor Bunt's fish pond.
Mrs. Nellie Sanders, wife of @. E. San
ders, our town constable, died last Satur-
day of consumption. Her funeral was
largely attended by sorrowing friends and
neighbors.
Little Garrett, the son of Mr.. R. R. SAT-
ferans, met with serious accident while
playing with calf. Becoming entangled
in rope he was dragged upon the ground,
breaking5hi5 collar bone and and intlict-
ing other painful wounds and contusions.
He is now rapidly recovering from his
injuries.
Mrs. Ruth Hall, wife of j. j. Hall, esq.
is seriously ill, but her friends have hope
of her speedy recovery.

Mr.. E. Griesenbeck has about finished

Our sheriff, A. F. Field, has just re-
turned from the Indian nation, having in
charge one A. Craft, an old, gray headed
man, charged with most wanton murder

"Cheede," now languish in the same cell
awaiting the laws delay.
Country produce of all kinds is now
abundant and cheap. Eggs have so de
clined IN price that the hens, in defiance
of law and General Hogg, have formed a
trust, and will not chant their lays again
until the price goes up.

GALVESTON, May 16.--Oliver Bohsnnsn,

dictm ant found at the March term of the
United States district court in this city,ar-
rived here to-day in the charge of Deputy
United States Marshals A. B. johnson and
James Pinnigre and lodged in jail. The
indictment charges Bohannsn, while
resident of this city, to have manufactured
silver dollars. His bond was fixed at $2,-
500. Prior, however, to the finding OF
the indictment by the grand jury
Bohannsn had escaped the town, but was
shortly sfterward arrested and held for
the same offense in New Orleans, the trial

The revenue cutter Dix came in from
Brazos Santiago this evening, having on

They we're non-committal as to
the result of the Investigations,
and Immediately upon disembarking
from the cutter Dix proceeded to the
union depot and left on the 6:15 train for
the east. In all probability the result of
the examination will remain profound
mystery until their report is submitted

Smuggling Cigars.
SpeAal to the Statesman.
Ell PAso, May 1.-two young men, Red
Sullivan and Patsy White, returning from
Jnarez in buggy, were observed by the
custom house guard to have contraband
cigars under the seat. Getting in the
buggy the guard came up
town with them and stepped
in at the Ranch saloon to get another
drink. The guard and White got out,
when Sullivan put whip to the horse and
started off at furious rate. Turning into
San Antonio street, he colhded with beer
wagon. The buggy was smashed, the
horse freed, and Sullivan thrown out.
The cigars were scattered in all direc-
tions. Sullivan jumped up and made his
escape through a barber shop. The
cigars and buggy were seized and Sullivan
was subsequently arrested at the smelter.
White, who was placed under $3.50
bond by the United States commissioners,
said he was invited by Sullivan to take a
ride and did not know what he had in the
buggy. Sullivan will be given hearing
tomorrow.

SAN ANTONIO, May 15.-The findings of
the court martial recently assembled here
for the trial of Captain Bainbridge
Reynolds, Third cavalry, were made public
to-day. The court finds Captain Reynolds
guilty of conduct to the prejudice of good
order and military diecipline, in violation
of the 62d article of war. The sentence
is as follows: To be suspended from
rank or command for one year and to be
confined to the limits of the post where
his troops may be serving, and to forfeit
to the United States $50 per month for
the period of the above sentence.
General Stanley comments as follows:
"When the courts martial come to the
wholesome though disagreeable conolu-
sion to do their parts toward erasing the
names of officers guilty of such offenses
as drunkenness from the army list, the
uniform of the United States army will
command the proper respect"
