stored to the place of power that he held
before the events Of Wednesday. At to-
nights session Of the league, for it was
dark before the magnates could be got
together although their meeting had
been set for II o'clock in the morning,
the Louisville club voted with the Brush
Byrne faction and swept all before it by
the narrow margin of one vote.
The minutes of the spring meeting
that had caused the trouble of the day
previous were approved. Sanction was
given to the proceedings OF the recent
meeting of the board OF arbitration
meeting in New York, at which the
board voted to keep its membership AZ
six and had decided 10 extend its ju-
risdiction so it would include cases SIM
ilar to the appeal in the Western League
and then the identical board of arbitra-
ton that has been accused of being the
cause Of all the trouble was reelected
for another year.

this subject by = rep0fre.; the othe,

this subject by reporre1 the other
day, said:
California is capable of supplying
tie markets of the world with most
kinds of fruit. Her yield is simply
enormous and is increasing SO fast that
there is considerable apprehension as
TO how crops can be advs1tageously
disposed of in The future. The variety
Of California fruit is also wonderfully
great, as it inrludes oranges. lemons,
pears, peaches, apricots and grapes. In
1885 the entire output of California
fresh or green fruits was less than 25.-
000,00O pounds The output this year
viii probably be about 2ao. .O0o. 900
pounds. Besides the fresh-fruit cut.
put, there is the dried and canned
product, which viii be not less than
SS0,o0o,e00 and may reach 4oo,ooo,oo
pounds.
1T is commonly supposed that the
canning and drying of fruits is the best
way Of disPosipg of the immense crops,
but, while it is an effective factor, it is
not everything. California canned
fruits are delicious, but the mass of the
people cannot afford to consume them
extensively. AS the product increases,
however, the cost may be reduced so
as TO bring the articles within the reach
Of most consumers,
California fruits are distributed
throughout this coantry in refrigerator
ears, each of which carries from 10000
to $4,000 pounds. The fruits that come
to New York are usually about ten days
on the road. When the season is at its
height the weekly receipts in this city
amount to from 90 to 100 car loads.
Special trains are sometimes run to
carry fruit designed fer export. These
trains are so timed that they will ar
rive here just before the sailing of
transatlantic steamships. The steam
ship lines have incurred great expense
in providing refrigerating cornpart
ments for the transportation of Califor-
Ma fruits, but up 10 the present time
the business has been improbable to
the shippers. Determined men with
practically unlimited capital are be
hind the export business, however, and
they appear to feel confident that ulti-
mately it will be made profitable,
despite the prolific transatlantic fruit
crops with which they have to compete.
There are from 10000 to 100000
acres of land under fruit cultivation in
California. About two-thirds of the
trees are in bearing. Other trees are
constantly being planted and, of
course, the number OF, bearing trees is
steadily increasing. The product is
Increasing faster than the population
OK the country. but the consumption Of
fruit is becoming more general, and
when it is cheap and times are good the
demand will probably more closely ap-
Proximate the supply.
The growers must rely upon a wider
distribution CT their crops in home
markets. In order TO make such dis
tribution, single car loads of fruit must
De sent to small ci>ies and large towns.
where the use of fruit from elsewhere
has been limited. In this way con-
sumption can be greatly stimulated"

THE DRAW.no-ROOM.
Bsw to Make the Company Room CheoN
fui and Attractive.


TIE term drawing room, formerly the
room in which company withdrew from
the dining room, is a much more ap-
propriate term in its origin than the
more common parior, which was the
room in which the sisters of the old nur-
series met to gossip and parley. II has
been a practice of late TO decry tho
necessity of separate room in an or,
dinary dwelling house for the recep-
ton of company. In large house,
where there are plenty of servants "a
look after the house and control the
depreciation of children, there is really
less need of a special room than in a
palmer home where the mother and
bousekeeper does her own work. The
plea which some such housekeepers
make, that they must have one room
that is kept in order, free from the in
roads of dust. and which viii always ba
IN readiness for the reception of the
casual guest, Is founded on reason. IL
Is not possible for any woman with Q
large family. and one who does her own
work, to keep every portion of the house
in that ideal state of order which can bs
attained with sufficient and capable
household help. She does not care &c

housekeeping to the critical eyes oi
casual friends. IL is not necessary that
