California Fruit I'm England.

LONDON, Aug. A.-The first large con-
signment of California fruit brought to this
country from New York by the steamship
Paris, has aroused the greatest interest in
England. When n. W. West x Co. COM
menced to auction off the California prod
ucts, shortly before noon to-day at Covent
Garden, this city, there were at least nve
hundred buyers present from all parts OF
England. An examination of this important
consignment showed that much of IL was
picked too late, and, consequently, 1t ar
rived in SO ripe a condition that IL is neces-
sary to sell ii to the consumer within forty
eight hours. The f~st lot of California
pears fetched to shillings per box. This
price was considered by the buyers TO be
very cheap. The greener pears were Of
fered later and prices stiffened to IL and II
shillings per box.
The nectarines brought excellent prices,
four shillings and FIVE shillings being paid
for thirds of boxes. The grand result OF
the sale showed that the consignment OF
California fruit averaged six to seven shil-
lings per box. The Englishmen did not be-
lieve that California fruit could be brought
successfully such distance, arriving with
It's flavor unimpared. 1t is useless, how
ever, TO send grapes or yellow peaches,
as they are not acceptable to the English
market White peaches, in condition, will
fetch high prices, and the nectaries and
plumS will do the same.

LEMONS ABUNDANT.
Increase in Florida's Crop Will Check
ImpOrtatiOn-Wh Wholesale Prices.

NEW YORK, Aug. A.-The increase Of
the lemon crop of Florida is exerting a.
marked influence upon the imports of that
fruit. This year it is expected Florida's
crop of lemons will aggregate 0O00 boxes
which is nearly four-fold the product Of
last year. The stock now in market is
sufficient to meet all demands. The ample
supply on hand, together with the large
quantities yet to arrive from Sicily and
other ports of Italy ESTIMATED at 10000
boxes) will compel the Florida growers to
leave their fruit unpicked until considera-
bly, later than usual. The Florida cron.

THE WILSON rILL AND ALABAMA.

There Is to be an election in Alabama on
August 6 for governor and other state
officers. In the last local contest in that
state the Democratic plurality was ii. 49,.
In the national election following. the
Cleveland electoral ticket polled 90 per
cent. of the vote Of the state. the Popuiist-
Republican ticket 80 per cent, and the
straight Republican ticket but per cent.
The Alabama Republican campaign COM
mitsee has issued call for q meeting Of
that committee in Birmingham On Feb
ruary s. 1t ends with these words: Tho
Democratic party Is divided. Republicans
may hope for victory. il united, in Ala
bama at the coming election in August.
and certainly will capture in November
several congress districts.
The Republicans of Alabama are encour-
aged to put ticket in the field because of
the profound popular dissatisfaction
caused by the placing of coal, iron ore
and lumber on the free list of the Wilson
tariff bill. Alabama produced $500. 600
tons of coal in 1893 1t had 160,0O0 spin
dies running in its cotton mills until a
year ago. The product of pig iron in the
state increased 1.32S per cent. from 1880 to
1890, and the debt OF the state in the same
period was reduced from $3.50 TO SIS. 20 per
capita. The lumber industries of Alabama
amount in a year to $40, 000. 900. The re-
duced tariff on manufactured cotton goods
also hurts Alabama's industrial interests.

years OF office he has not scrupied to raise
the tar when he has required additional
revenue.
Hers we have the testimony Of the great
est English finance minister Of modern
times. Gladstone. against the principle OF
the British income tar. which Is an int
nitsly fairer and better measure than our
proposed measure. for il taxes all incomes
above 500, regarding that - living ex-
penses. In England when ministry will
nc. reduce expenditures and must hare
more revenue Ii puts UP the rate on in-
come. A nenny on the pound in England
yields about q million and half pounds
sterling. and so when Gladstone needed
money for the Egyptian war in lss2 he
added penny and half TO the income
tax. The result is that in normal times
British expenditure is irreducible- The
New York San recites these facts. ana
points out that so it will be with Us when
the income tax ereeps on and becomes
perpetual. Since isTI76, when the Brit
i.h income tar was Q pence IN the pound,
the rate has been steadily rising, till now
it is 81 pence on occup.ers OF farms and
pence on lands. tenements, nurseries.
market gardens, annuities. dividends. the
savings Of professions. trades. employ
ments. railways. mines and iron works
and on salaries. Seven pence in the
pound is less than per cent. but twenty
years ago the British rate was less than
half of what congress now proposes to levy
on Americans.

BURGLARS AT WORK.

News reached the city this morn
ing of bold attempt to rob the bank
at Whitesboro, which is a branch of
the City bank at Sherman. Fr0m
passengers who arrived on the 1890
local train from Whitesboro this
morning, Register reporter CLEANED
the following particulars: At day
light this morning it was discovered
that burglars had entered the bank
building through back window, and
with the use of dynamite had blown
open the vault and the front door of
the safe, which contained the money
deposits. The inner door to the safe
was also partially opened but not suf-
ficient for the burglars TO reach the
deposits. The clock i'll the building
had stopped at 4:SO a. m, which
shows that the explosion took place
at that time. A saloon directly across
the street and a meat market near by,
were opened about that time, nnd il
is surmised that the burglars took
fright and fed without carrying out
their design. AS it was they failed
to secure any money and escaped
from the building through the frent
door. There Is no clue to the perpe-
trators.-Gainesville Register.
