THE LEMON MARKET.

NEW YORK, Nov. 22.-The Journal of Com
merce says: The Sicily lemon market has been
unsettled for some time past result of
liberal receipts dull market. From the
beginning of the season to date there have ar
rived in round numbers III, 600, against about
173, 900. boxes for the corresponding period last
year and about 100, 900 in the previous year be-
tween these dates Last year and the year be-
fore California was prominent factor and
supplied a considerable part of the Western
demand This season, while offerings have not
been so great from the coast, enlarged ship
ments from Sicily influenced by comparatively
high prices ruling at the beginning OF the sea-
seem to have overstocked the markets
East and West
Speaking of the condition of the market a
prominent jobber said to-day that the uncer-
tainty as to the future about done.
The market" he said, is gradually assum-
ing a normal condition Satisfactorily. The
available supplies in sight slightly less
than the quantity at the dock and en- route at
this time last year.
"Advices from California" he continued,
indicate that there will be heavy ship
ments from the coast until after January l.
while the few cars now being shipped from
there mostly green and therefore not avail
able for immediate consumption. The recent
receipts of Sicily lemons have been of good
quality and have shown a large percentage of
perfectly ripe fruit available for immediate
USE
Another leading jobber confirms these state
ments and adds:
1.-The quantity of fruit now being shipped
from Sicily is not excessive and there are no
very large cargoes afioat.''

almost altogether by shorts. Liverpool receipts
