Spokane. Wash. June 26

week in the month is expected to be dull
in the wholesale trade, business was fairly
active yesterday.
The market was well supplied with all
kinds of fruits that are in season, includ-
ing strawberries. Cherries, all of which
are coming from Snake river and Walla
Walla, are now at their best, Royal AIMS
and Black Republicans the largest and
most luscious varieties, being plentiful.
The announcement yesterday that ber-
ries would hereafter arrive only in the
morning over the Northern Pacific, on ac-
count of change of time on the O. r. &
N, by which the train does not arrive
until $50 in the evening, called forth
protest from the Pacific Express Com.
pany's local agent, who says the company
is still in the fruit carrying business, and
that berries picked in the morning arrive
the same evening over their line This is
no doubt true. Reference was made only
to shipments by wholesale commission
men, who say that they will hereafter
ship no berries over the O. r. & n. for the
reason that the train does not now arrive
until $50 p. M, which is too late for them
to supply the trade, and the berries would
have to be held over until the next day.
