SCORING THE CONsoLIDATED.

The Boston Fruit and Produce tx
In Their Behalf.
BosroN, May 23.--At meeting of the
Fruit and Produce Exchange this after
noon the following memorial was read:
Whereas, At the recent investigation of
the N. Y, N. 81. & 81. Co. before the rail-
road committee before the general court 1t
appeared that fruit and other perishable
freight intended for delivery at Boston at
the N. Y. & N. E. freight yards with their
ample terminal facilities have been direct
Providence division of the N. Y, N. II. &
d. road, where the terminal facilities are
Oh tirely inefficient.
And, whereas, the Inconvenience, cost
and other annoyance to the commercial
interests receiving said freight were made
80 apparent at the said investigation that
the New York, New Haven and Hartford
railroad then and there recognized the evil
by Offering to transfer such freight from
it's road at Readville to the New York and
New England for delivery and, whereas,
such an arrangement would be satisfactory
to your petitioners, but they cannot learn
that any steps have been taken to remedy
the existing evil which, in a week with the
rapid increase of freight business owing to
summer business will become intolerable.
And, whereas, the said company has In
Its report expressly found that the COM
plant of your petitioners is well founded
and In the interest of the public service
the railroad company should remedy it.
And, whereas, in a matter 30 gravely sf-
fecting the business interests of Boston
your petitioners feel that the recognition
of the Justice of their complaint is entitled
to something more than a recommendation
for its removal.
Therefore your petitioners respectfully
pray that such legislation may be enacted
as will secure such a remedy and compel
the railroad to provide it.

BAD FOREST FIRES

In the Northern Part OF the State.
SPRINGFIELD. Mass, May 23.-The worst
forest fire for many years has been raging
In Stafordsille and Union, Conn, for
many hours, and still uncontrolled, Is
sweeping on toward South Wellington,
leaving black and smoking waste.
A conservative estimate of the area
already burned over il 800 acres, and be-
fore the progress of the fire can be stayed
many acres more must succumb to the fire
king.
The fire was 6rst discovered on land
owned by f. W. Pierson, near Stafford
vile, at about 9 O'Clock Sunday evening.
Unavailing efforts were made to stop the
progress of the flames. Last night Il was
estimated that about $50 men were engaged
in this work. All the plans known to
woodsmen for cases of this kind, Fuch as
digging trenches and kindling back fires,
have been resorted to, but have thus far
proved futile.
The loss Is hard to estimate, but by this
fire 1t will probably be between s., 600 and
SIS, 900 If stopped to day.
The heaviest losers thus far are johnson
and Beebe, Priest, Goodell, Rockwell and
Brooks, George Fenton, Edward Goodell,
f. w. Pierson and N. Fairmand. Many
others have sm aller losses
