SOUTHERN EUROPEAN CROPS.

NEW YORK. April 4.-The Journal of Com
merce says: Reports of damage to growing
crops in Southern Europe by unfavorable
weather are beginning to arrive. The trade
here has learned to expect them and put their
own valuation upon statements emanatng in
almost all instances from interested parties.
In very many Instances these early reports are
almost wholly discredted by later develop
ments, and consequently holders here do not
seem to be much disturbed over the prospect
OF shortage in the output this year of such
fruits and nuts have not already been dis
placed In the American markets by cheaper
California products Latest advces of crop
damage come from Greece in connection with
currants hut they are rather vague, assign
ing no cause for 'unfavorable crop conditions"
Handlers Of currants here are at loss to UNI
derstand Just what influences at this early day
can be affecting crop prospects as vines are
only just beginning TO bud.
There is little doubt that the almond crop OF
France suffered considerable damage through
recent frosts. but that 1t will be total loss.
parently disposed to believe until more def
mite Information is received. From Tarrsgona
also. come cables reporting that that crop has
been seriously injured and according TO one
shipper Il will prove total loss. AS the ship
per referred TO is understood to be carrying
some stock from the last crop. his statement IT
is thought may have interested motives behind
tt Sicily mail advices just received to the
effect that while some injury has been done
TO the almond crop in certain sections the
outlook is for an average output. No reports
of damage to the Bari Malaga crops have
so far been received.

ASSESSMENTS PENDING.

Cheese has been carefully tested by a
German chemist, who placed the samples
in an artificial digestive fluid containing
a considerable proportion of fresh gastric
juice. Cheshire and Roquefort cheese
took four hours to digest, Gorgonzola
eight hours, Romadour nine hours and
Brie, Swiss and ten other varieties ten
in four or five hours, the common belief
that cheese aids digestion appears to be
erroneous.
