The Orange Situation

In short time the orange season will be
IN and shipping will after that grow brisker,
week by week. The question just now is,
what will the market be: Growers are talk
ing of price ranging at about $3.50 per
box for choice navels, and some. think 80 70
not too much for fancy lots. The New York
Commercial Bulletin of recent date SAYS of
the condition of the market at that place ::
Notwithstanding the recent large ar
rivals OF Jamaica oranges, receipts at this
port New York; have been only slightly
greater than for the same period last year,
and are only about third of the quantity
received during the corresponding time in
1896. The figures giving, Seceipts for the
three years, from the beginning of the sea-
son to the middle of November as pre-
sented by the statistics of the Fruit Buyers
union, are about llS,000 packages for 1896,
about $4,000 packages for 1897 and about
$4,000 packages for 1893.
"At the present prices asked for repacked
Jamaica oranges, consuming demand is
checked. and while the market has been
pretty well cleaned of recent arrivals, very
rev orders are coming from country buyers
or even the local distributing trade A GER
tain amount of stock however, is wanted
as there is nothing else virtually to take the
place OF Jamacas. 1t is expected, however,
that the market will ease off after Thanks
giving, as there is said to be large quantity
OF Jamaicas on the way. Nassau is beginning
to ship more freely, and California stock
will soon be available on the spot, while
Mediterranean fruit will soon be on the mar.
ket, and the California crop also promises
to be about the same as that of last wear"
