GRAPE MARKET Is
IN MAD ACTIVITY
Sidewalks Along West Street
Blocked With Stacks

New York suddenly has developed a
terrific thirst for grape juice, or at least
something that is made from the juice
of the grape Whether recent raids OF
prohibition agents wiping out vas,

| is unexplained.
a stroll along West street. with Its
! long rows of commission warehouses,
however, is sufficient to indicate the
prevalence of the appetite. There the
sidewalks are literally blocked with
stacks of crates of grapes.
In that whole section It is doubtful IL
trade in any line Is as brisk as that in
ness in grape presses which has sprung
up in Washington street. To be sure,
those same presses could be used 10
make apple cider, but one looks in vain
Commission merchants along West
street make no great secret of this
grape madness. The answer is that the
home brewer has turned TO grape wine
for a medium of exercising his skill and
to drinking the same as an exercise for.
mayhap. his prowess.
The vast bulk of the grapes stacked
up i'm West street are not of the table
variety heretofore popular in New York.
but are said to be wine grapes. much
of them coming from California. Many
OF the crates are so ripe that the juice
oozcs out and dyes the pavement deep

Overripeness. however appears to be
looked upon as an asset rather than a
liability by the merchants. That state
OF the grape. il is explained. is des.ra-
BILE for the purposes In mind, though i'm
possible for table uses outside of de-
canter. This slight deterioration is not
accompanied by a slump in prices.
Incidentally, grapes which some time
ago were selling at s1.25 to s2.25. de-
pending upon variety, now are going at
from $2.25 to 1925
The stocks are being disposed of in
varying consignments from few
crates TO truck loads at the time. A
substantial part of the demand comes
from the citizenry of foreign extrac-
tion to whom wine making IS a more or
less familiar process and to whom the
drinking of wine has in the past been
as much q part of daily routine as eat
ing food.
While there. e.are several large dealers

is fourth class man.
Authorities at the Academy declined
to divulge the name of the midship-
man in the hospital No information
as to who he is had leaked out of the
institution at a late hour tonight.
Rear Admiral Henry b. Wilson. su-
perintendent, admitted that there lad
been hazing trouble. that three mid
shpmen were under arrest and that
one was in the hospital. He said a
board Of inquiry would be appointed to-
morrow to investigate the reports.
Admiral Wilson asserted that he was
much distressed over the affair, par
ticularly in view of the unusual privi-
leges he had extended to the first class
men since he took charge at the insti-
tuition this year The senior midship-
men have been allowed more leave on
holidays and more general liberty than
has ever been known in the history Of
the school.

but the spirit of an agreement like this

With these words he stretched out his
long arm across the table. A slow smile
crept into Ismet's sombre reflective face,
and be took Gen. Harington's hand In a
ready grasp.

BUSINESS GOOD
JUNE COURT DAY

Tune. court day was a big day
for the cattle traders. Estimates
were that there were over 6,OCO
cattle on the market here. The
East End yards from which a re-
port came early, had some 4,100,
with most of them sold. Prices
were said to be a little lower
than last court day. Nine hun
dred sheep sold well, with prices
somewhat higher. About 100
hogs changed hands at this yard
at satisfactory prices. Mules and
horses were rather scarce with
prices low and little demand. No
report was received from the
Madison yards in time for pub
lication today but trading. there
was reported very brisk.
There was a big crowd in tow
and merchants reported business
good for this time of the year.
