FRUIT SELLING WE'LL In LONDON.
Good Returns From the Second
Shipment.
With Careful Selection of Fruit, the
London Market Can be
Depended On.

George II. Appel of the California Fruit
Transportation Company is in receipt of
telegram confirming the cable reports
of the sale of the second shipment of
California deciduous fruit, which was
forwarded from Sacramento on the 10th,
connecting with the steamer st. Louis in
New York. the fruit arriving at London
and selling al good prices. as follows:
Pears, whole boxes, averaged 13s
(S3 25); pears, halfboxes. rs Cd 81 93l;
plums. SIS I'd 81 ~; peaches, Is Cd
81 62l.
W. n. White & Co. want Californians
to send peaches and pears in any guam
tity, as there is good demand. 1t is safe
to say that the prices above realized will
be safe criterion for future shipments.
The peaches in this consignment were
very small, and choice stock will I'M
doubleday sell for much higher prices.
Mr.. Appel says this is quite contrast
to the prices being realized III the do
mestlc markets, and shows very plainly
that under proper conditions the English
markets will take great quantities OF
California fresh fruits at remuneratlye
prices.
The net results to the shippers on whole
boxes OF pears in this shipment will be
about 81 90; on half boxes, about 81 10; on
crates of plums, about 81 70; on peaches,
about 81 cents box. This is on the basis
of So per hundred pounds, including
freight and refrigeration delivered III
London, and per cent. commission.
The next shipment will be forwarded
from Sacramento on Tuesday, the 30th
inst. Mr. Appel states that they can ac-
commodate ten carloads in this next
train. and shippers desiring space are
asked to advise promptly.

THE OLD CORNER. q"

Arguments in the Case of Lawyer
Joseph in Judge Hinkson's Court.
Yesterday afternoon Judge Hinkson
was occupied in hearing the arguments of
the attorneys in the matter of Isaac
Joseph, on habeas corpus. The petitioner
was represented by d. Z. Alexander (and
HIMSELF. They argued that the ordinance
providing for The tearing down of build
ings within the fire limits is invalid, con-
trary to the provisions of the Constitu-
ton Of the United States and of this
State, also OF the general law, IN that II
interteres with the right Of property, and
takes property without due process of
law.
They contended that the City Trustees
had no authority themselves to condemn
property as nuisance. or otherwise,
without first commencing an action IN
court of competent jurisdiction for the
purpose of ascertaining whether or not a
nuisance existed, and not having the
power themselves they could not delegate
such a power to the Chief Engineer of the
Fire Department. or to any person. as
they have attempted to do in Ordinance
No. 39l, and authorize him to condemn
building without giving the owner an
opportunity TO be heard in the matter.
ana cited cases in support OF their con-
tention.
The prosecution was represented by
Corporation Counsel X. L. Devlin, who
argued that the power attempted to be
exercised by the city in this matter was
within the police power of the State. He
cited cases where cities had regulated the
erection OF buildings. and the uses to
which they had been applied, and con-
tended that the case at bar was similar in
principle.
The entire afternoon was consumed in
the arguments, and they will be con-
Guided this morning before Judge Hlnk-
son. This is matter of great importance
10 property as there are many
other buildings within the fire limits
which are liable to be condemned by the
Chief Engineer of the Fire Department
