To dispose of the 400 lots of fruit con-
sumed four and one half hours of continu-
GUS selling at auction on my part. To de-
liver the fruit required the services OF over
fifty trucks, that commenced to load at
l1:3O A. NJ and finished delivering at about
1870 at night. The buyers who purchased
this fruit were composed of the regular
fruit jobbing trade of this city and of repre-
sentatives of about forty firms doing bus
mess within the territory bounded by
Providence, R. l.. and Philadelphia, Penn,
and numbered about 200. This sale Illus
trates two patent facts; first, that the ability
of New York to take an immense quantity
of goods and pay good prices is fully DEM
onstrated; and second, the auction system
for disposing of perishable fruit is the only
one that could possibly be used to market
such vast quantity of any products that
included so great variety, condition, quality
and kind as comprised the fifteen carloads
of fruit ! sold. Illustrating still further
another feature of the auction method, l
would say that of the 100 shippers that
made up this total of fifteen cars, every one
was in possession of the results of his sales
within twenty-four hours after the same
took place.

OUR FRUIT IN NEW YORK.
Immense sales of California Products il
Single Day.

Immense sales of California Products in
Single Day.
A New York fruit-dealer, who handles a
large percentage of California's present
crop, writes ss follows:
NY sales on Tuesday, September I'd, of
fifteen carloads of California green fruit are
worthy of note and comment for several
reasons. This number of cars was the
largest that had ever been sold by any other
receiver, in any one market in the United
States, in one day, SO far as California pro-
ducts are concerned. This is very signi-
fcant, because the Chicago market has
been one that was supposed to be able to
take more California fruit in one day than
any other in the United States.
Inasmuch as there was total of eighteen
cars sold in New York on Tuesday, with
results as below given, which certainly in
dictate good prices for everything that was
good, as against and in comparison with
Chicago's sale of about ten days ago, of a
similar quantity Of cars, when results were
very disastrous, would seem to indicate that
the New York market is certainly one of
tremendous extent.
These fifteen cars that sold comprised
about $500 boxes OF Bartlett pears, which
averaged about So per box; about 1000
boxes OF peaches, which ranged in price
from 81 so for anything of fair quality to
S. IS for the best fruit; 1.500 boxes Of
plums and prunes in every variety, which
ranged in price from 81 Is to 81 S5; about
$500 packages of Tokays, Muscats and
other varieties OF grapes, which sold at
from 81 25 up to 81 for packages contain
ing eighteen pounds, and for crates OF forty
pounds, the range being from 81 IS to
IS 10. These results prove oonclusively
the fact OF our market being able to take
anything good, and making good, profit
able prices, no matter the quantity.
It Will be interesting to note further in
connection with this how these IL 600
packages were handled and disposed of by
me. To prepare the sale of this enormous
quantity of fruit it required about forty
men to unload the cars, properly put each
and every one of the 400 different lots OF
fruit in shape for the sale, some Of these

The Express Train of the Future.

DR.. Louis Bell says the electric express
train Of the near future will, in all proba-
bility, contain one or more powerful motors
on the axis of its drivers, and aggregating,
perhaps, l,000-horse power as a normal
output. 1t will be lighted and heated by
electricity. The track over which it will
run will be straight and smooth, like the
great English trunk lines of to-day. The
train will start smoothly into motion, fly
along the track at the rate of one hun
dred miles an hour or more, and stop
quickly and easily by applying its electric
brakes. An automatic block system will
be used that will secure perfect control of
the trains and almost absolute immunity
from collisions.
