Lemons Sold for Import Duties.

New York. Aug 1.-THE appraiser at
this port has sold for the government
in the last three weeks 100000 boxes of
lemons because the importers decline to
pay duty on them. The chief reason for
the present glut is believed to be because
there has been so prolonged hot spell
Fewer lemons have been consumed and
the visible supply has increased until the
price has gone down to a point where
money will be thrown away to pay duty.
Importers, therefore. have preferred to
lose the amount they paid for the lemons
on the other side and have abandoned
vast quantities of the product.
