FLORIDA'S ORANGE CROP.
Yield for the Year About 100000
Boxes in Excess of 1901.

Jacksonville, Fla, Dec 19.-Latest esti-
mates from railroad men and experienced
orange dealers is to the effect that the
Florida orange crop is about one-half
gone out of the state. The total crop will
be fully 100000 boxes being an increment
of 250, 900 boxes, on account of increased
size of the fruit, which is phenomenal
this year. Oranges run from so to $50
per box, 12S being standard size. A crop
of 200 boxes at Seffner had 100 boxes of
SOS, which had to be packed in jumbo
boxes. On the Caloosahatchee some Gas
were discovered; the crop averaging the
growers about $1.25 on the trees. Prob
ably a moiety of the fruit has been or
will be purchased on the trees. The dead
lock was obstinate for some weeks, but
the growers could not control the situa-
ton as well as the buyers. The fruit was
fairly well colored up by November Is,
perhaps, but it is not high colored- The
excessive humidity has diluted the color
ing pigment. 1t is pale and lemonish.
This year the color was behind the al
manac, but the saccharine was ahead of
it. although behind the Florida normal.
In other words, the oranges have been a
little watered. All serious allegations of
rot have been eliminated.

LADY MASSEY SOLD POOR.
Speedy Race Mare Brings Only
$500 IN ENGLAND.

New York, Dec. 19.-The mare Lady
Massey which. it will be remembered
won couple of races on this side of the
water, three seasons ago, and was Dur-
chased by Tod Sloan. on behalf of
Frank Gardner, who. although an
American, has spent most of his time
abroad, was sold a week ago and real
lied but the small sum of $500.
The sum is small inasmuch as Lady
Massey developed into the best horse in
England last season over the hurdles.
1t is likely that Lady Massey was bid
in by Gardner, who is not retiring from
racing, but simply transferring his in
terests from England to France. Lady
Massey was not trained by Eugene
Leigh, but by an Englishman named
Hallick.
AS an evidence of the value of young
horses developed at the jumping game,
it may be of interest to learn that

OCTOPUS REACHES OUT.
Northern Securities Company Said to
Be After Wisconsin Central.

Chicago, Dec. 19.-There is a general
belief in western railroad circles that
the Northern Securities company has
acquired or is acquiring a controlling in
terest in the Wisconsin Central rail-
road. Affairs in the traffic world have
been shaping themselves of late in
manner that would clearly indicate that
if James J. Hill is not the owner OF a
large share of Wisconsin Central stock
that railroad is working in close har-
mony with the northern lines
When in Chicago last week Mr.. Hill
was asked if he owned the road or if
the Northern Securities company as ac-
curing it, and replied: L do not own
the road. nor do I want it. 7 have
enough railroads for the present to keep
me busy

ally be taken with a grain of salt. and
it would not surprise a great many well
informed railroad men if the announce
ment of the Hill control of the Wiscon-
sin Central would soon come.
