A REMARKABLE PINEAPPLE.

st. Petersburg Times: Pineapples
are famous for their remarkable feats
OF growth-their wonderful life tenac-
ity under unfavorable conditions that
would kill any other form of vegetab BILE
life-but r. w. Miller leaves at the
Times office specimen that probably
beats all records. 1t is an Abakka
stalk bearing a perfectly developed and
ripened apple weighing probably five
pounds, and the plant has not been in
the ground nor had a root of any kind
since long before the bloom appeared.
Some months ago the stalk was acct
dentally broken off, and laid for a
long time on the ground, entirely de-
tacned from the stump. Mr.. Miller no
ticed it frequently among other trash
and when he finally got around to clean
out the rubbish was surprised - OBJ
serve that the thing was blooming,
and so left it lie to see what would
become of it, Scores of visitors saw
1t during its growth, picking it up
and examining it and throwing it down
again. The bloom became an apple,
and the apple developed and ripened.
The stalk. in the meantime, dried and
shriveled from its lower end, and the
fact seems to be there was sufficient
food in the stock to develop the apple.

Chicago Produce Letter.

Chicago, Aug. 4.-There was cOnSid-
cradle strength to the wheat market
early to-day Houses who trade for
foreign account were all buyers of
September. The small worlds ship
ment and big decline on passage fig
ureS were influences. The selling by
Harris Gates caused decline from top
prices and local crowd. who bought on
the swell proceeded to dump their pur
chases causing further weakness. Ar
mour was prominent in buying side
on the break and prevented more
than a moderate decline, but near the
close this support was lacking and
the market developed further weak
ness, closing near the low point.
COrn-The early strength in corn did
not hold. weakened later under heavy
selling led by Bartlett Fraser and all
the gain was lost. Local crowd was
very bearish early on very small re-
ceipts. Armour was a big buyer of
September and December and this
combined with general local buying,
caused an easy advance of over a cent.
At the top Bartlett Fraser commenced
to sell and before they finished more
than a million had been let go and
the market was under Saturdays clos
ing and with lack of support and a
little more offerings. sold still lower,
closing weak and near the bottom.
There was a decline in the visible
Oats-Oats We're higher with the
corn market early and on some buy
ing on small receipts. But the adj
vance was lost with corn, declined and
sold off a little more on increase in
visible and expecta ton of $50 cars to-
morrow. Trade avs light and with
out important feature. Cash situation
about unchanged and crop advices very
favorable There was further liouida-
ton in hog products day and the
market was lower, although local buy
ing on the hog situation steadied price
to some extent and prevented a great
er break. There was a fair trade al
times but the attitude of leaders in
the market appeared to be one OF
waiting. and there was nothing con-
spicuous to the trading.

Bluff, and the Two States between Sa-
vannah and Stcney Bluff. The Murchi-
son will be hauled out on Rourkes
Marine Railway to-day for repairs.
The Two States is now ready for bust
ness. The idea has been to divide the
business so that each boat would get
a share of it. and without working
along each others line. The advant-
age of such an arrangement is that
both boats may operate Independently,
and thereby save cutting rates for bus
mess. Whatever cutting there is will
he between the two boats named, and
the Southern Transportation Com
pany's boats. The latter will run

Chicago, Aug. manipulation and
fears of September shorts in all grains
influenced an early firmness in grain
to-day out of all proportion to the
natural trend that follows such a pro-
life season. Support, however, that
was necessary to the scheme of the
bulls was withdrawn and prices tum-
bled sharply. AS a result, September
wheat closed A@Ac down; September
corn nc lower, and September oats 70

MARINE INTELLIGENCE.
Local and General News of Ships
and Shipping.

Were the old time coastwise trader
harbor he would probably not recog-
nize ii as the port for many schooners.
Within the past few weeks the falling
off in the number of sailing vessels to
visit here has been little less than re-
markable. They are now few, and only
now and then are there charters for
vessels to come.
While there is apparently a dearth
Of schooners for the South Atlantic
trade, yet it has been proved that the
business can to a large extent be done
without them, at least for awhile. The
steamers are doing most of the work.
The reason there are so few schoon-
ers is that coal cannot be had as a
downward cargo owing to the short
supplies caused by the coal strike,
hence they will not charter for lumber
returning alone. They are engaging in
other trades.
The entire of the weeks exports went
out by coaStwiSe steamers, which are
doing the hauling at the moment The
total outward movement the past
week was 1928 S7 feet, of which 494.-
Jos went to New York COS, 770 TO Phil
adelphia, and $40, 462 to Baltimore.
During the week the demand for the
yellow pine has been reported as good.
and the movement promises to hold
out. From the interior reports are to
the effect that the mills are running
on full time.
Differences have been settled be-
tween the upriver steamboats,. and
from now on they will be operated sep

PLENTY OF CORN IN BERRIEN.
Triton Gazette: Reports of short
corn crops, sent in from many sections
of the state do not affect Berrien. Dr.
J. H. Hammond of Enigma sends the
Gazette seven ears OF corn, all in the
shuck from the field of Mr.. H. II.
Bell of near that place. Mr.. Bell has
three acres from which he will gather
125 bushels, and this ear is a sample
of the way it is crowded for room.
This corn was grown on the mud
lands of Berrien, says the doctor,
and is an evidence that there will be
bountiful food crops in this good old
county.
