TROPICAL FRUITS.
The statistical position of lemons and oranges,
according to the New York Journal of Com
merce. is particularly interesting at the present
thc shippers OF Mediterranean fruit, contrary. to
energies to getting oranges to the American mar
kets at the earliest possible date. The statistics
almost conclusiveiy to the fact that the shippers
in Sicily are deyotins their attention chiefly to
date. being impelled by the belief that in consa-
quence of the failure OF the Florida crop tais
opportunities to importers than ever before. This
Is true to an extent. but not to the full extent
f the ideas Of sellers on the other side. While
the crtp of Floridas is undoubtedly SO small as
to become a most insignificant factor In the btu
aticn. the output of California fruit appears to
be large. 1t is fully three weeks earlier in
maturing TsI% ps .haa ,h,. ma ans Is s, se, tasus buried ed for or.
tention of orange growers and handlers in every
hat there would be no Florida fruit to speak Of.
and as the best consuming market in the world
direction. Growing districts in remote parts Of
the world that have seldom II ever before sent
resented in the visible supply at New York.
