PIN EAPPLEs ARE GONE.
CROP WAS SHORTER THAN FOR
MANY SEASONS AND PRICES
WE'RE HIGHER.

CROP WAS SHORTER THAN FOR
MANY SEASONS AND PRICES
WE'RE HIGHER
The season for the importation of
pineapples closed this week, the last
vessel having come in from the Ba-
hamas, discharged her cargo and has
gone with the others of the feet into
other lines of commerce. Local receiv-
ers of the fruit report that the season
has not been entirely satisfactory to
the packers because Of the falling or
in receipts over the preceding year and
because OF a greater demand for the
pineapples by shippers for that trade in
insular towns and hamlets.
It is stated that the Florida pineap-
pie industry was an important factor
in bringing about a reduction in the
importation of the fruit For three
years the Florida pines have been in
strong competition with the foreign
fruit, owing TO the systematic effort Of
the Tlant System Of railroads in that
state to find field for the sale of the
fruit Il has succeeded and It is now a
decided competitor for Baltimore's
trade, which heretofore has practically
monopolized the products OF the Ba-
hamas. which were almost entirely alb
sorbed by the canneries. other cities
received their supplies of pines from
Cuba, but the fruit from the islands
has been OF poor quality this year
and also short in supply. This. it Is
said was caused by the fact that the
plantations have been neglected during
the rebellion in the island. the fields
having been devastated and the pines
having been allowed to grow almost
wild.
II is also said that the pines have
not had their usual keeping qualities
this season. This has been character
istic of all three kinds Of pineapples-
those grown in Cuba, in the Bahamas
and in Florida. The peculiar thing
about this seasons crop has been that
the pines would arrive apparently in
good condition but If held for a shori
time, even much shorter than usual
they would spoil.
