His Account. Not wrong.

Kicker, late local cashier of the Bos- ton and Maine Railroad conipsse5 and who left home three days ago in a it of dejection because his accounts were somewhat tangled, has returned to ex- plain what was at first supposed to be a shortage of $1,6O0. After he went away experts from the American Guar. antee company, his bondsmen, discov- cred that the. trouble was chiefly a matter of Bookkeeping and that really the shortage, if any exists, is very small and that there is no indication of any discrepancy.

OUR FRUIT IN DEMAND.
Ruined Crops in Europe Favor Amer
 ica.

LONDON, Sept. 25.-America is now reaping great benefit from the storms which made the past summer one of the worst on record in Great Britain and the continent, Thanks. to the ru- ined home crops, California fruit is be- ing imported in larger quantities than ever before. The sales last week in London marked record with 1000 boxes of American fruit, representing about 675, ,00O pounds weight. The fruit was sold at two days auction in Go vent Garden market, the prices aver aging 30 per cent above what has here tofore been obtained here. The sales were chiefly of California pears and plums, with fair consignment of New York state Bartlett pears.
 There is practically no English fruit obtainable, while France, which usual ly exports large quantities of pears to England. is sending none. The Amer ican section of Covent Garden market is now almost the sole source of sup ply, and there are no signs of the de- mand decreasing American apples, which hitherto could not be profitably shipped hither till later in the year, now have brisk trade. Forty two are expected in London at the end of this week, and record prices are as sured.
 A member of the most prominent English firm dealing in foreign fruit said:
 There has never been anything like 1t. Europe's i'll wind has certainly
 brought good to America. We are spending five and six hours a day in the auction box disposing of double as much California fruit as we ever did
 before at prices ranging from 25 to 30 per cent higher. We have no difficulty in securing all we want from America but we can scarcely order quickly enough. Heretofore California fruit has been more an adjunct to England's supply than a serious factor in the
 market. Now, owing to the failure of
 French fruit and the complete loss of the home crop, the American branch of the market is watched more eagerly than any other.
 "How disastrous the present season has been to English growers may be judged from letter in which a fruit farmer in one of the best counties of England says thas on eleven acres, all devoted to green gages, the fruit on only three ripened. There is no won. der that shipments of American fruit are well received"
 The following are the current quo tations per box: California pears, $1 04 to $2.30; California plums, S2.43 te $2.91; Bartlett pears, $1S2 to $2.30
 peaches, SPAS to $2.67.

POLICE COURT DoINGs
Arthur Dillon Was Discharged
 Judge Burpee in City Court.


 Arthur Dillon was before the city court to-day, charged with embedding from the insolvent estate of his father, Thomas Dillon, $2OO. This case was instituted sometime ago, but on ac- count of the illness of the accused ant other reasons it was continued from time to time. Judge Burpee presided at the hearing to-day and Judge Peas ley prosecuted. Attorney Russell de- fended
 Thomas Dillon kept q grocery store on Bishop street until September of last year, when he closed up through alleged financial difficulties. His son Arthur, the accused kept the storo with him. It was generally supposed that Arthur had financial interest In the business, but judging from the evI-s dence to-day it seems he had not. Tho actual accusation against him was that after the store was closed and bank ruptcy proceedings filed, he collected about S2OO and kept 1t. The evidence taken at the bankruptcy proceedings was read by Judge Peasley. This showed that Arthur had testified he was employed by his father for $15 a week and that he lent his father $500 when the business was started. and that a short time before it was closed up he gave him $2OO. and there was an understanding that the profits wera to be divided between them. He could not say how much money his father put in the business. After the Bishop street store was closed Arthur and his wife left the city. His evidence showed that he was employed by his wife in meat store known as the Metropolitan Beef Co Mrs Dillon had $50 in the business and Arthur could not say where she got this money. Charles Bryan, who was also employed in, the Bishop street store. testified that he collected about s70 or, $50 and handed it over to Arthur. because he opened and closed the store and used to receive the money. Bryan consid- cred Arthur was manager for his father. Thomas Dillon was also sworn and he testified the business ran down and he was hard pressed hy his creditors for some t.-.e before he closed. At that time he owed Arthur about S1.0OO.
 Judge Burpee said there was one element of fraud missing. The &C., cused was charged with embedding from his fathers estate, whereas Ills father testified that he Arthur. had full permission to collect. He accord ingly discharged him.

 Benefit Of Our Busy Readers.
 Three schoolhouses were broken into in Bridgeport Wednesday night and money taken from the desks of several of the teachers. The schoolhouses were the Prospect street, Barnum and Island Brook. At the first about $6 was taken, from the second about $4, and from the third only 75 cents. The work was undoubtedly done by boys and was similar in all three cases.
 At a cost of over $25,00O. the New York, New Haven and Hartford Rail- road Go has decided to construct an immense coal repository just below the new railroad roundhouse at Bridgeport and dredge a channel from the harbor to wharf which is to be built near the site for the structure that will con- tain the coal. The capacity of the building will be between 10000 and 15,O00 tons. This is direct result of the coal famine last year.
