and district: Bartlett Pears. s4oq45 per ton;

Dealers are waking up to the fact that with
the exception of Peaches and Apples the fruit
crop of the State has been overestimated this
year. The free shipments to the East have
diverted much fruit from this city that the
market is moderately supplied and the
tendency in prices is rather upward. In look
ing back it is that Cherries, Gooseberries
Currants and Strawberries have been in mod
crate receipt right along, and now Plums are
getting scarce with an advance on canning
account, as will be seen above If the present
deficiency continues prices during the balance
of the season will probably be good.

DRIED FRUIT IN NEW YORK.


Mail advices from New York say of dried
fruit and raisins:
Peaches continue quiet. but supplies being

downward. 80 far as trade is concerned at

their fruit. Gamers and dealers in fresh fruits
can pay more than driers dare offer now
