WANT CALIFORNIA FRUIT.
Has Made Its Reputation in the
English Market.


LONDON, Sep. l2--There is great annoy
asce felt by the iruit-dealers jn Covent
Garden to-day by the fact that no Calf
fornia fruit is ar. living. The first ship
ments received here made the reputation
OF California fruit, and hundreds OF the
smaller dealers. finding the public wei
comes California fruit, began arranging
Tor supply. Suddenly the shipments
stopped and now no fruit from California
is experted TO arrive before Septemoer 70.
There are no pears and no plums in the
market and If supply of the California
grown product was now here 1T would
command high prices. The taste, color
and quality of previous shipments were
highly approved Much of the fruit was
repacked in small baskets and sold as
English grown. a trick that will be always
possible unless quantity OF the Call
fornia product is regularly sent. That
there would be some loss at the outset OF
such an important fruit movement should
have been expected. The early shipments
were only advertisements. If the shippers
fail now to forward fruit regularly they
will undo all that has been done.

which there will undoubtedly be demand

WASHINGTON, Sept. 12.-Champion j i'm
Corbett appears to take Jackson's refusal
to fight as matter of course. but seems a
little bit disappointed.

couldn't pull Jackson up to me with q
wire rope. l don't wish 10 appear egotis-
tical, but / must say in all candor that he
Is afraid to meet me. / have conceded
everything that | can, but he declines to
sign the articles. His excuse that he
wants to fight in house and before a club
is all balderdash. The Sioux City Club is
a well-CrganiZed association of reputable
men who can easily put up the purse and
who would certainly erect clubhouse.
As to fighting on barge, / have no such
intention, and l don't believe the men,
bers of the club ever entertained that iea
for minute. 1t is only pretext to help
Jackson and Parson Davies to avoid the
fight they have been making at long range.
They have fairly haunted me since
bested Sullivan, and now, when eornered,
they back down like cravens.
''Pll tell you one thing" and the cham
pion grew very confidential, jackson,
with all his boasted strength, is far from
being a we'll man, and he realizes that MS
only chance is to rrtire with the empty
honor of having made big bluff at me. l
say now that | will fight the Australian
before any club, for any purse and at any
time which will not interfere with my the
atrical venture. l am bound by contracts
tha' cannot be broken until the end of the
dramatic season, and l will not take the
chances of running my prospects by fight
ing until have performed my part"
Corbett is not at all worried over the
stand taken by the New jersey suthori-
ties in regard to his late bout with Court
ney before Edison's kinetoscope. He does
not anticipate any troubles as the exhibit
tion was not fight in reality. but was
