Jacinto Banavitz Takes
the Blame.

Jacinto Banavitz, about 20 years DID,
living at Pauoa, appeared at police
headquarters late yesterday afternoon
and gave himself into the custody of
the officers He said he had accident
ally shot and killed boy named Joe
Borgess., a Portuguese, s or 10 years
old, about half an hour before.
/ Banavitz was pale and under cOnsld-
cradle nervous strain, as he gave de-
/ tails of the killing to Deputy Marshal
fChillingworth. The young man SAID
he had borrowed a shotgun and was
on his way to Pauoa to shoot mynah
birds when the unfortunate accident
occurred. He said several boys start
ed to follow him, as he was walking
along the road, and, feeling annoyed
over their presence at his heels, Bana-
Wiz turned to warn them to keep away.
AS he did so, the gun, which he carried
under his left arm, with the Darrel
pointing downward and IN front OF
him, was in some manner discharged.
The full charge of bird-Shot took erect

per portion of the skull being carried
away. and the little fellow falling deao
in his tracks.
} Banavitz Immediately returned 10

home presented sad scene upon the
arrival of Deputy Marshal Chilling,
worth, the parents and brothers anc
sisters being gathered around the torn
of the little boy, weeping bitterly. Ih'
mother was too hysterical to give an.
information to the officer, but othe
persons corroborated substantially IN

Dried Fruits III Ne1v York.

The New York Commercial says: Business
has been dull recently. but appears now to
be shaking off its lethargy, and dealers are
getting in shape for a heavy trade IN the
coming weeks. There are rumcrs OF large
ssles in and about all descriptions. but traced
down they generally amount to but very ht-
tie Recent sales, so far as can be determined
have been limited to small lots scarcely more
than two or three cars Of any one variety.
"Apricots are firmly held. 10 cents being the
ruling price on the coast in bags with some
holders asking 1O2duc. \ larger proportion
Of the crop is said to have passed out OF hrst
hands and the rest are held stiff by all those
Interested There is some difference OF opin-
ion here as to what the price is likely to be-
but there seems 10 be a well grounded opinion
that it will be we'll up the rest of the sea
son 1t isn't so much shortage Of apri-
cots as it is that shippers Of green fruit ana
Gamers have taken everything procuraole'
leaving driers in some instances to search for
supplies.
Raisins continue steady. Mail advices from
California confirm previous reports that the
crop will be around 5000 cars Estimates vary
from 200 cars to 3100 cars, but it is said that
q conservative statement Is 5000. The carry
over will not be large, and opening prices are
said to be contemplated l cent at least above
last years opening Whether this will prove
true or not remains to be determined.
There is nothing in peaches so far as
known Prices are steady at about previous
range Sales are being made at cents, but
most holders ask SIC. The market shows no
particular strength activity.
''Prunes are quiet now but it is understood
that there is active inquiry and that trade Is
likely to be active in futures shortly. All
conditions favor a good market this season,
the shortage in the Northwest and in Europe
being responsible for the change in sentiment
this year compared with last season. Sales
At present are confined to small lots, scarcely
ever more than two or three cars, and the
largest sale OF the season, so far as known,
has been less than 80 though one is quite
ready to say just what the number was. The
price is said to have been cents. T. o. b., in
