MELON SEASON CLOSING.
This Weeks Receipts Will See End
and Oysters Will Reign.

According to the watermelon dealers at
the 18th street wharf market the season
for the fruit is now on the Tind-up. and
by the end of this week all cargoes eX-
pccted will have arrived and most OF the
melons will have been disposed Of. Two
or three boats are known to be down the
river loading for the market here and it
is quite certain that they will bring the
last of the season melons. BY the middle
Of next week the melon season will be a
thing Of the past and the 18th street
wharf will be given over to the sale Of
oysters.
This morning four vessels with melons
aboard were lying at the wharf market
and the fruit was being sold at prices
ranging as high as SO per hundred. In
spite cI the latencss of the season, the
melons now arriving here are of good
quality and are as sweet as those that
came in the height of the melon season.
1t ia thought, when the total receipts of
melons at the wharf market are figured
up. IL Will be found that considerable
in excess Of 10000 passed off the wharf
from the opening of the season in August
to the present time.
