further divided into qualities, ''No. II
and ''No. % to good advantage. For
instance we would have Clancy No. u
and Clancy No. q" bright No. /" and
bright No. g." and SO on. Under un-
form and careful system of packing this
would be done.
All merchantable oranges can be in
cluded within these grades, the making OF
more grades is impractical, cumbersome
and useless. Drops, culls, creased, scaly,
scabby and coarse fruit, if shipped at all,
should be packed by itself and it's quality
marked plainly on the box. Better still
do not ship this inferior fruit at all, it
hardly ever pays. There is good fruit
enough to supply the demand, and this
poor stuff only serves to depress themar-
ket.
From the sizer the fruit goes to the
wrappers, who cover it neatly with tissue
paper, deity fastening it by final twist.
Strong brown MANILA tissue is generally
used, some, however, use white or bright
cOlOrs. The name and address of the
grower, and the brand OF the fruit, is
sometimes printed on the wrappers. This
pays we'll when the fruit is choice. Any
thing which adds to the attractiveness of
the package increases it's value in market.
The standard orange box, roughly
speaking, measures 12x12x27 inches. The
two ends and the partition in the center
being each an inch thick; the box con-
sists of two comp artments, each contain
ing one cubic foot. The ends and parti-
ton are made of twelve inch boards, and
should be dressed on both sides. A side
is usually made in one piece, machine
shaved from the round log. Themes of
these come from Maine and are known as
Bangor sides. An equally as good side is
made here of pine, gum and other tim
Der, although some of the home manu-
featured sides are inferior. Much of the
Bangor siding is too thin. 1t should be
thick enough to lay perfectly fiat, even if
dampened. The thin sides bulge out or
wrinkle in damp weather after the box is
filled and nailed up, which increases the
capacity of the box, slackening the pack
ing and destroying the layering OF the
fruit.
Always use bright, clean boxes; wealth
er-stained, shabby boxes always go to
the man on the lookout for bargains.
The fruit is placed in the boxes in uni
form layers, the plan of layering varying
according to the size of the fruit. The
sizer being adjusted to the several plans
of layering used, the fruit in each box
being OF the same size throughout.
The following diagrams illustrate the
various plans OF layering now in use by
packers:

coast, was encountered.
Colonel McFarlsne. chamberlain to King
kalakaua, stated that the King visited Cali.
fornla for the benefit of his health and eye

Admiral's barge late this afternoon, and a
few minutes later arrived at the Clay-street

A Law Suit Which Wound Up in a Free
Fight.


Fight.
SPOKANE FALLS, December 4th.-Judge
Blake's department of the Superior Court
fight. IN which Mayor Clough, attorneys
Turner, Graves and Finn, and tine officers
of the Court participated. For a few mo-
ments there was tremendous uproar.
The fight was the result of conflict be-
tween the city and judicial authorities.
Judge Blake rendered judgment against
the city for $1,000 in favor of ex-Police
Justice Curry. Mayor Clough refused to
sign the warrant, and was arrested for con-
tempt of Coart.
Charles S. Voorhees,, attorney for the
city, in addressing the Court, aid it was an
outrage that the Mayor should be sum-
marily arrested on q charge the penalty OF
which was imprisonment in the peniten-
tiary.
Attorney George Turner, a prominent
politician, retorted that it might have been
better for the city if the whole municipal
government had been in the penitentiary
for the past two years.
After Court adjourned, and while the
men were leaving the room. Mayor Clough
approached Turner and said that his re-
marks were uncalled for, and that his law
firm had been mixed up in every dirty case
with the city. Turner struck at Clough
Some say the Mayor was knocked down,
others that he lodged the blow and fell
over chair. Turner jumped on the pros
trated man. Thereupon attorney Quinn
sought to pull him off. Frank Graves,
Turner's former law partner, then jumped
on Quinn. The Sheriff. deputies and Con-
stables rushed in. The Judge pounded on
the bar and called for order, and confusion
general reigned. Finally the combatants
were separated, and it was found that no.
body was hurt.
Turner served as United States Marshal
in Alabama under tHe Grant Administra.
tion, and was one of the BOG who supported
Grant in the Chicago Convention.

Pacheco will Succeed Miner, and Mo,
row Judge SAWYER

Pacheco will Succeed Miner, and Nor
row Judge Sawyer.
WASHINGTON, December 4th.-The Cali.
forpia Associated Press correspondent this
evening learns that President Harrison and
his Cabinet have agreed to appoint ex- Coy
ernor Pacheco, of California, to succeed
Miner as Minister to Central America
Stanford pressed him hard for the position.
and as the other members of the California
delegation made no recommendations. the
PRESIDENT and Secretary Blaine this morn
ing decided On Pacheco. The fact that
Pacheco speaks the Spanish language
strongly influenced the President and Sec
retary Blaine in his favor. Besides that.
both the President and Secretary Blaine
felt that California's loyalty to the Admin
istration should be recognized bv some
mark OF appreciation.
AT the Cabinet meeting held this after.
noon Pacheco's selection was announced
ana as no objections were raised by any of
the Cabinet 1t was agreed TO make the ap--
polntment at once. 1t was expected that
this would be done this afternoon, but it
was too late to send the name to the Senate
when the Cabinet meeting broke up.
The appointment will probably be
MADE out and sent to the Senate to.mor-
row.
hc correspondent VI tQS CailtOrnla As
socisted Press has another good piece of
news tonight. There has been a good
deal of speculation rife of late as to which
Representative Morrow had his eve on.
Many of his friends had believed that he
would rather practice law in San Francisco
for about four years, and at the end of that
time again cast his vote in the California
State political lottery, but the correspond
ent hears to- might, on first-class authority.
that Judge Sawyer will retire from the
California Circuit Judgeship next spring,
and that Morrow would like TO succeed
him.
Judge Sawyer was here during the sum.
mer, and stopped at the Richmond Hotel.
where Morrow makes his home while
here. They are fast friends, and it is be-
lieved that Judge Sawyer would like for
Morrow to be his successor. Stanford and
Morrow have called pretty frequently on
President Harrison during the past few
days, which lends probability to the story.
Morrow's friend Estee is here too, and be
and Blaine are quite intimate.
President Harrison entertains a high
opinion of Morrow, and it need not sur.
prise Californians if he is appointed.

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE.
Annual Report of Acknowledgement
Miller.

WASHINGTON, December 4th.-Attorney-
General Miller, in his annual report, saws
that vieilant efforts have been made TO en-
force legislation excluding Chinese immi-
grafton. By the cooperation of the Treas
ury Department, it is believed that most of
the attempts to cross the border have been
frustrated, as have the attempts to bring
Chinese directly through the ports of the
United States upon the Pacific coast.
In regard to the reorganization of the
judiciary, 1t is earnestly hoped that the
legislation now far advanced will not be
permitted 70 fail.
In regard to- the difficulty of enforcing
the law, the Attorney-General says the en-
forcement of internal revenue laws and the
United States election laws is particularly
resisted. Several assassinations of officers
and witnesses, with the purpose of imped-
ing the execution of the laws and orders
OF the United States, occurred during the
past year: Within the past ten days
Deputy Marshal attempting to serve a
warrant for the arrest of man for viola
tlon OF the postal laws was shot and in
stantly killed by the man sought to be
arrested, and at the preliminary examiDa-
tion before magistrate of the State the
prisoner was promptly discharged.
1t IS certainly al anomaly in government
that those who have committed murders
for the purpose of stopping prosecution in
Federal Courts should not only not be pun
lshed, but not even be put upon trial in
the State Courts. So long as persons who
Kill officers, witnesses or jurors for the pur-
pose ofimpeding the administration of JUS
tice, can only be tried and punished in
Federal Court, as for minor offense, the
administration of the United States laws
and the lays themselves in many districts
will have little respect. Convictions and
pleas of guilty have been obtained in a
large number of cases.
AS an illustration, however, of the DIFF
tculties met in such prosecutions, the Dis
trict Attorney for one district reports in a
certain county. number of whose citizens
were convicted of violations of the election
laws, that the County Court ordered all the
fines and costs assessed against them in the
United States Court to be paid out of the
County Treasury, and in another county, a
number of whose citizens in like manner
were convicted or pleaded guilty to such
otfenses in the United States Court, 81 800
wss actually paid out of the County Treas
-ury upon such fines and costs in one day.
These facts speak for themselves.

PENSION ATTORNEYS.
They do Lucrative Business at Wash
iuRtOn.


WASHINGTON, December 4th.-Secretary
Noble has been paying considerable atten-
ton lately to the subject of attorneys fees
in pension cases. and is formulating e plan
by which claimants for pensions not repre-
sented by attorneys may be placed upon
the same footing as those who are.
In speaking to-day of attorneys fees,
Secretary Noble expr11sed himself with
some warmth. The Pension Bureau, he
said, is now issuing between Il, 600 and
$4,000 certificates a week This means
that the attorneys are receiving every week
out of the moneys appropriated to relieve
the necessities of old soldiers an amount
estimated at between $3.50 900 and $175 600.
A large number of cases were adjusted
under the old law, which allowed fee of
SIS. The new law allows but $40, but
even at this rate the attorneys would real
ize $150, 900 week.
