LONDON WILL Be A GOOD MARKET
CaIifornia's Late Fruits viii Sell
Well There.
So Says Agent Appel of the Cali
fornia Fruit Transportation
Company.

George II. Appel, agent for the Califor-
MIA Fruit Transportation Company.
which has been conducting the fruit ship
ments from this city to London has been
visiting San Francisco. In an interview
with Chronicle reporter Mr.. Appel
! said:
"Yes, certainly, we have encountered
much competition with the fruit that has
been forwarded from California, which is
| principally pears, peaches, plums and
nectarines. French and English pears
and German plums, also English plums,
are iD the market largely. A private dis
patch which l have from w. NJ. White Il
/ Co., says that after next week there will
| be no French or English pears left in the
! market, and that The trade should be
good from now on until Christmas. TAX
ing it all around, the results this year are
quite satisfactory.
1.-The idea we have in view is to open
up the English market fully, and so take
care of the surplus of California fruit,
which will not only increase our sales on
the present basis of acreage, but will
cause an extension of the frult-groWing
| industry. We expect to get out special
train every week from now on during the
present season. so long as we can get
satisfactory quality of fruit TO ship. The
I y
| The buyers there want fancy article in
peaches, and 1t is more difficult to get a
peach stock to satisfy them. Pears are
! bringing from @. TO lis, and half boxes
Is. Cd; peaches. as l said, from 5s. TO 5s.
! 3D.; plums, from IS. To 5s.
the largest receivers of our fruits in
| London are w. y. White II Co. There are
quite a number Of others. Those who were
pioneers in the shipment of green fruit
| for foreign consumption are still in line.
| A. T. Hatch was the first. Among the
! others who were shippers the first year
are the j. Il. A anderson Fruit Company of
| San ose, the National Fruit Association
! OF Sacramento, the Newcastle Fruit
| Growers Union, the Auburn Corpora
! tive Fruit Company, the Penryn Fruit
! Company, +. ii. Buck of Nacavilie, Pull
/ man ii Mckevett of Vacavile, the
Hemme Orchard and Land Company OF
/ Hemme, and there are others. The num-
/ ber OF shippers this year is about the
same as the number during the first
year. Five 10 ten cars are run on our
! special train, all being the California
/ Fruit Transportation Company's cars.
The gross receipts Of the first year
were about S320 600. The prices were fine.
! but the expense was too great. Pears
/ that come in competition with California
Bartletts include what is known as the
French William variety, from which the
Bartietts originated. This year as the
| French pears were setting. hot, dry
winds came, which caused the fruit to
| drop TO the ground. Some further and
| more definite information can be secured
yery soon when Mr.. Hatchins, the Vice
! President of the California Fruit Trans
portatiou Company, will arrive here. He
/ has been in London, and has attended the

STREET CAR ROBBED BY BANDITS.
A Saturday Night HoId-Up Near Oak
Park.
Two Masked Men Board the Car and
Rob the Conductor of all
His Coin.

About 11:30 o'clock on Saturday night
two highwaymen held up an electric car at
Twenty eighth and Y streets and robbed
Sl7 80.
The car was returning from Oak Park,
and just as it reached the curve at the
point named, Davidson, who was tempo
rsriy acting as motorman. noticed two
mon standing near the track some dis
tance ahead. AS the car approached them
they drew masks down over their faces.
Davidson realized instantly that the men
were going to stop the car for the purpose
of robbery, SO he turned on the full cleo
trio power for the purpose of leaving the
robbers behind.
He would have been successful had not
the trolley-pole become disengaged from
the overhead wire. The car came to a
standstill, and the robbers boarded it and
forced the conductor to give up what
money he had. They emphasized their
demand by presenting revolvers at Dav-
idson and Frank Westley, the motorInan.
When they had finished their work the
robbers compelled the motorman to run
the car back to Oak Park, where they
jumped off and disappeared.
The Sherif's Office and police station
were immediately notified of what had
transpired and were given descriptions OF
the robbers. The latter were minus
coats and vests, and wore soft shirts over
the upper portion of their bodies They
also wore blue overalls. Their faces were
concealed by black masks. One of the
robbers had a pistol with blue barrel,
while the weapon the other one had was
nickel plated.
Constable Whitney of Oak Park found
three cartridges OF 80 caliber where the
robbery took place.
The motorman said the robbers would
not take his watch because they thought
it not worth having. but they took his
transfer punch.
superintendent Shock is of the opinion
that the robbers, seeing that Davidson
would not stop the car, ran behind and
pulled the trolley-pole down 30 as TO
break the connection, which necessarily
made the car come TO a standstill.

Hotels Looking for Rooms for More
Guests Than They Can
Accommodate.

Work on the decorations for the Electric
Carnival is being rushed forward with all
the dispatch consistent with accuracy of
detail Scores of men are also employed
by private citizens in preparing decora-
tons and for illuminating their premises.
There was a large attendance at the
meeting OF the Electric Carnival Execu-
tive Committee on Saturday afternoon,

1t was decided that the four financial
committees report to the Treasurer next
Wednesday the complete list of their sub
scriptions.

committee consisting of L. L. Enright.
NJ. j. Curtis and j. o. Coleman was ap
pointed to pass on all claims, and the

draw checks for bills approved by that
committee.
A resolution was passed requesting
that the business houses of the city all be
closed for the whole day on the 9th inst.
MIR. Hall moved that the bills paid SO
far by the Chairman and Secretary be de-
clared duly audited
Director General Coleman moved that
partial payments be authorized on con-
tracts, IL win the approval OF the Audit
ing Committee. Carried.
The Director General reported that he
had employed George T. Royster as an
assistant for Rev. a. Z. Herrick, who has
charge Of the task OF securing rooms for
visitors. Mr.. Herrick reported that he
had already secured several hundred
rooms, and that there was every prospect
OF ample accommodation for the incom-
Ing throng. He further stated that the
N of Of f6O folu hul
asked him to find rooms for its guests. 1t
was the sense OF the committee that no
! Objection would be made to this plan if
the committee were assured that there
would be no overcharging.
On motion, the Chairman, Secretary
and Director General were appointed
committee on parade, to confer with the
Grand Marshal.
The Director-General reported that he
had arranged for the electrical work to
be done on the floats and the Native
Sons arches. lie also suggested that the
Parade Committee call on the City Trus-
tees to request an order for keeping clear
OF vehicles and X and lntersectiug

addition to other fine features of the
parade, TO consist of six cars. all of which
will be beautifully decorated.

FRUIT PACKERS At L0GGGGBbRRHEADS
Earl and Armour Go to Law About a
Patent.
a Suit in the United States Circuit
Court that Involves Import
ant Litigation.

a great battle is impending between
the Earl Fruit Company and Philip D.
Armour of Chicago. a few days ago
suit was filed in the United States Court
by L. L. Earl against Robert Graham for
1000 damages for infringement OF pat
ent. The action was so quietly begun,
says the San Francisco Chronicle, that un-
til now it has escaped notice.
Graham is the manager Of the Armour
Packing Company on this coast. The
patent which it is alleged has been in
fringed upon is that for ventilated re-
frigerator cars for the carrying of fruit.
Over 1000 of these are in use throughout
the United States. and if the Californian
succeeds in establishing his ownership to
the device as against Graham, ne will at
once press the Chicago millionaire for
damages running up away in the hun
dreds of thousands of dollars.
When the device was put into operation
1t, or something similar was adopted by
Armour; then Earl called him to account
The result was that Armour wrote to Earl
on November 3, 1894, q letter in which he
said: 1--WE will not use either yours or
ours or put them on without first giving
you sixty days notice OF our intention so
to do" Meantime the Chicago packer
had his foreman, a man named Kirby,
apply for patent on device which is
evidently an evasion of EarPs invention,
and on March 4th last notified Earl of
kirby's arrangement and OF his purpose
TO employ it in the shipment of green
fruit. The difference between the two
devices is one of mere detail.
Earl claims that the device of Armour's
foreman is only subterfuge, and de-
clares he will make the Chicago fruit
packer suffer severely for its use. AS the
ventilated refrigerator cars are the acme
of fruit transportation methods, its pos
session means practically monopoly of
the shipment of California green 1ruit
crop, and is a fortune in itself. The strug-
gle will be severe Mr.. Earl's attorneys
are John II. Boone and John II. Miller
Graham is not yet represented by coun-
sci, but it is thought that Mr.. Armour
will send an attorney from the East TO
defend his manager.

He Took Advantage of Captain Greene,
But VIII Pay For 1t.
Captain of Police Greene and man
named James Conway had rough and
tumble bout in the alley between X and
L, Third and Fourth streets, on Satur-
day night. which grew out of Greene s
attempt to take Conway to the police sta
ton for creating disturbance in the
house of a woman on lower L street.
When Greene caught Conway the latter
asked the Captain to show his authority.
AS Greene was in the act of exhibiting
his star, Conway struck him NUN Der OF
powerful blows in the face. One of the
blows nearly knocked a tooth out of
Greene's jaw.
Captain Greene is not large man, but
he knows how TO put up his hands,
pretty well, and he made it very lively
for Conway until the arrival of officer
Maley, when they safely landed Conway
