Apples by the Pound.

The editor of the CALIFORNIAN received
from j. S. T. Wallace of Barnet this week
an apple OF the Alexander variety that
weighed 1925 ounces. 1t was grown
from a tree sent Mr.. Wallace six years
ago from London bv his friend, the late
B. Frank Stevens. One does not gener-
ally think of England as an apple coun-
try, but if this is tair specimen OF the
English varieties the Euglishmen may
yer rival their Yankee cousins as pie
eaters. In fact. Barnet young lady
made pie Monday morning from an
Alexander apple and used only one of
them in making the pie.

INTEREST Conferred IN UNION
PACIFIC HOUSES.


NEW YORK. June 17-Interest In the
stock market today remained largelS
centered in the Union Pacific preie1Ieu
stock houses, This plan was dlllgeHllS
canvassed from every point OF view
There was considerable speculative ac-
ITCHY in Union and Southern PACING as
a consequence. The early advance IN
Union Pacific was due also in part 70
a rumor that a decision in favor OF .n9 e
Union Pacific party was to pc nance
down in the Northern Securities case,
UNFOLDING its contention for the return
of the Northern Pacific stock as orig
inally deposited. There was more o.
less divergence in the course of the
two stocks as was the case YESTERDAY
and the day before. and this had the
effect of depressing operations IN tne
general market owing to the CONFUSION
Of sentiment. Dealings fell away 70
the dullest of the week in the latter
part of the day and prices chung closely
to last nights losing level The nature
of the dealings on the curb in southern
Pacific's subscription rights and in the
new preferred stock when issued had
its part in upsetting sentiment. Both
the rights and the new stock were
heavily sold. The provision of a PRIV,
ilege to redeem the proposed stock az
lis for a period of five years was the
cause. 1t was argued that this would
serve as a limit for the open market
price of the stock, as buyers would De
disinclined to pay more for the stock
than the price at which the company
was entitled to retire it. It was argued
also that the 115 limit would tend to
prevent the sale of any additional issue
of the stock by the company at
higher price. The effect upon Union
Pacific was moderate, except as 1t dt-
minished its activity. The selling of
Southern Pacific was large. including
free offerings for London account The
buying was believed to be In the ma
ture of supporting orders. but 1t serv u
to relieve the anxiety lest the new
financial plan should break the price
of Southern Pacific and thus hurt the
market. Sharp declines in the Metro
politan group of street railway were
depressing influence. metropolitan
Street Railway declared the regular
quarterly dividend, but many rumors
were circulated of the inadequacy of
the companys earnings to provide for
dividends as guaranteed. News OF
crop conditions was very favorable, but
was disregarded. So were the reports
of heavy sales of copper, both for do
nestle and export account. The time

cash to New York. the weeks gain By

of 81 ,000,0 900.
Southern Pacific was forced down 1 u

was offered 1t and the market closed
