DRIED FRUITS COMMENT OF A NEW YORK TRADE JOURNAL ON THE CHANGED CONDITIONS OF THE MARKET. New York, March 29.—The Journal of Commerce says: "A few years ago New York was the distributing center in the East for California dried fruits. Nearly all of the business in the territory east of Buffalo and Pitburgh and north of Baltimore was conducted through the jobbers of this city. At present, however, according to the statements of prominent members of the trade, there is practically none of this outside trade left to the city, as in recent years the practice has increased among the shippers in California of sending their goods to local points. As a result trade here has suffered severely." "The general opinion of the members of the trade here seems to be that all classes of these fruits have been affected by the change, but that it has been most noticeable in the case of raisins. While a return to the old system of doing business through a few important distributing centers is in every way desirable, there is, it is claimed, but slight indication that this will be realized. The growers in California are distrustful, not only of merchants here, but of one another, and for this reason they will not combine and endeavor to regulate the distribution of their products. Many of them is said here" THE CONVENTIONS. THAT OF THE SEVENTH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT TO CONVENE AT MODESTO MONDAY, MAY 4TH—BASIS OF REPRESENTATION. The Seventh Congressional District Convention, comprising ninety-six delegates from the counties of Stanislawa, Merced, Madera, Fresno, Tulare, Kings, Kern, San Bernardino, Orange, Riverside and San Diego, will be held at Modesto on May 4th, the day before the State Convention at Sacramento. The purpose of the convention is the selecting of two delegates and two alternates to the National Republican Convention at St. Louis, one candidate for Presidential elector and a candidate for Representative in Congress from the Seventh Congressional District. The delegates to the convention will be selected in such manner as the Central Committee of the various counties composing the district may determine. The basis of representation is to be one delegate for each Assembly district within the Seventh Congressional District; one delegate for each 200 votes cast for M. Estee, Republican candidate for Governor in 1894, and one delegate for each fraction of 100 votes or over, as follows: Fresno, 13; Kings, 3; Merced, 3; Riverside, 9; San Bernardino, 13; Stanislawa, 4; Kern, 8; Madera, 3; Orange, 8; San Benito, 4; San Diego, 16; Tulare, 7; Fresno and Madera jointly, 2; Stanislawa and Merced jointly, 1; Tulare and Kings jointly, 2.

The battleship Iowa which was launched at the Cramp's shipyard at Philadelphia last week, is the largest and most powerful vessel in the new navy, and is the most formidable battleship afloat. The Iowa is somewhat larger and considerably more powerful than the Indiana, the Massachusetts and the Oregon, though of the same general type, and excels them in the length of the armor belt, and the amount of protection given to the machine and rapid-fire guns. She will carry a main battery of four 12 inch breech-loading rifles, mounted in pairs, in two steel-armored barbette turrets of fifteen inches thickness, one forward and the other aft; eight 8-inch breech-loading rifles, mounted in pairs, in four steel-armored barbette turrets of eight inches thickness on the exposed side and six inches elsewhere, two on each side; six 4-inch quick firing rifles, protected by 4-inch steel shields, and placed one on each side in armored sponsons amidships on the gun deck, between the two pairs of 8-inch rifles, two mounted in armored sponsons on the open deck, and two placed on the bridge at the after end of the superstructure deck. The auxiliary battery will consist of no less than twenty-eight rapid-fire and machine guns. The Iowa's defensive armor will consist of a steel armor belt fourteen inches in thickness and seven feet six inches deep for the protection of the hull at the water line. The armor belt will have a backing of cellulose, incolled in water-tight compartments, in order to minimize the danger of sinking should shots penetrate the armor. The cellulose will swell quickly when wet, and close up the aperture made by the enemy's shell. The arrangement of the cellulose in compartments will tend to localize any incidental damage either from the effect of shot or the inflow of water. A curved protective deck of steel will cover the boilers, engines and magazines. It will vary from two and three-quarter to three inches in thickness, and be able to deflect any shot that may penetrate the hull and strike it. The Iowa will carry only one military mast, but that will have three fighting tops of four-inch steel, containing machine guns capable of practically none of this outside trade left to the city, as in recent years the practice has increased among the shippers in California of sending their goods to local points. As a result trade here has suffered severely. "The general opinion of the members of the trade here seems to be that all classes of these fruits have been affected by the change, but that it has been most noticeable in the case of rains. While a return to the old system of doing business through a few important distributing centers is in every way desirable, there is, it is claimed, but slight indication that this will be realized. The growers in California are distrustful, not only of merchants here, but of one another, and for this reason they will not combine and endeavor to regulate the distribution of their products. Many of them, it is said, have no capital and are anxious to realize on their crop as early as possible. To do this they consign crates of fruit to brokers anywhere who will advance on the goods. The broker then often finds the market is not large enough to require all the goods he has taken, and sells them for what he can get. "Prices have declined, and while the increase in the supply of dried fruits is partly responsible for this, the system of indiscriminate consignments has also had the same tendency. High grade loose muscals sold five years ago for 10 cents a pound to the jobbing trade, while to-day they are selling at 4 cents. Four sizes of prunes have declined from 12½ cents in 1889, to 5¾."

The arrangement of the cellulose in compartments will tend to localize any incidental damage either from the effect of shot or the influx of water. A curved protective deck of steel will cover the boilers, engines and magazines. It will vary from two and three-quarters to three inches in thickness, and be able to deflect any shot that may penetrate the hull and strike it. The Iowa will carry only one military mast, but that will have three fighting tops of four-inch steel, containing machine guns capable of pouring an enormously destructive fire on the decks of any adversary which may approach to within close quarters. The Iowa will have a displacement of 11,-250 tons, or nearly 1,000 more than the Indiana, and is designed to have a maximum indicated horse power of 11,000, or 2,000 more than the Indiana. Her length is 360 feet, beam, 72 feet; draught, 24 feet. The Iowa will be vertical inverted triple expansion engine. The engines will be completely separated by water-tight bulkheads. The contract speed which she must attain is sixteen and a half knots. Her coal capacity is 2,000 tons, and her cost will be $3,200,000. Besides the armament already mentioned the Iowa will carry a supply of automobile torpedoes of the Howell or Whitehead types, and is fitted out with six torpedo tubes—one in the bow, one in the stern and two on each side amidships.

The rebels, following their usual policy, destroyed the town and passed on. The news was brought to Havana by mounted couriers, and General Weyler made haste to deny everything. He admitted, however, that the fighting had been desperate. The Spanish troops in the province of Pinar del Rio are now without refuge from the rains, malaria and yellow fever which sweep over that part of the island during the rainy season, and which are so fatal to those who are not acclimated. It is predicted that if the war extends far into the rainy season yellow fever will carry off the Spanish troops in groups. The Morgan line steamer which arrived at Key West from Havana reports that it was stated semi-officially in Havana that Captain Weyler, in spite of all stories to the contrary, had become disgusted and had tendered his resignation because things are in a bad shape. It is an open secret in Havana that, owing to Weyler's determination to resign, and the seeming determination of the United States to recognize the belligerent rights of Cuba, all parties have come together in Madrid, and that Canovas, Prime Minister of Spain, will resign to accept the Captain-Generaloy of Cuba, and that 'the leader of the Republicans will accept his position.' This means a union of all the different parties in Spain to prosecute the war. A convoy of 126 wagons, laden with timber for the construction of a fort in the town of Caney, six miles from Santiago de Cuba, fourteen drays and twenty-four mules loaded with provisions, was attacked at Loma del Corojo, two and a half miles from Santiago de Cuba, by a large body of rebels under Quintana. After an hour's fighting the Spaniards were obliged to abandon the convoys leaving twenty-eight dead and seventy-six wounded. The insurgents' loss was very light. On the 12th inst., a Spanish column, 800 strong, under Lieutenant-Colonel Cellibos, met a rebel party of 1,200, commanded by Vasquez, near Baire. The insurgents surrounded the Spaniards and fired upon them from all sides finally routing them. The Spaniards lost forty-two killed, 110 wounded and thirty prisoners. Among the killed were a captain and three lieutenants. The rebels had eighteen killed and thirty-seven wounded. A bloody engagement took place on the 11th in Tiqui Holquin, between a Spanish column, 700 strong, under Linarae, and 1,400 rebels, under General Carrillo and Colonel Otaan. The insurgents surrounded the Spaniards and attacked them with machine gunets and the Spaniards were obliged to retreat. The rebels had nine killed and sixteen wounded. The Spaniards had twenty-two killed and forty-five wounded. New York, March 30.-The Herald's Havana cable says: Gomez has been in Santa Clara a week. According to trustworthy advice, his movement westward toward Havana province last week was only the time of their conference, and pending for a decision, which is expected Monday. It has been argued that Field, then knowing what the delay Modesto case would be, made views upon the lines of that decision Judge Ross, who found it concurring his own opinion. Judge Ross has made a decision of his own reversed by preme Court, and therefore expert justified the prophecy in saying that verse decision in the Fallbrook can be confirmed. There is now good reason to believe over that Judge Ross's decision was vexed and that the Wright act was elicited constitutional. The belief necessarily contrary to the infenction drawn from the facts stated at this certain that the decision reached by all the members of the Court at the time Justice Field was over by Judge Ross. Opposing views may be held by a majority of the court; the arguments heard when the Modesto was recently taken up and regarded nectaring with the Fallbrook case; had a tendency in favor of the countility of the act. At all events, from masonry which seems reliable, there bids fair to be favorable to the law strured by the Supreme Court of California; give fresh impetus to irrigation in Colorado and several other Pacific Coast States. It will make valid all of the $20 worth of irrigation bonds which have issued, and be the cause of last perhaps twice as many more. For reasons, the decision of the court awaited with the greatest interest. How to cure Rheumatism.

SNAP SHOTS AT THE NEWS The assessor of Madera county announces that Henry Miller, the cattle king, had concoled from him $67,500 worth of personal property, which will now be arbitrarily assessed at eight times it actual value. Wholesale fruit dealers in New York have raised the price of Zante currants, owing to the decision rendered by Judge Morrow at San Francisco upholding the duty on currants. The price has gone up 1 cent a pound in the New York markets because it is believed that the full duty will be assessed on all future importations. The price has advanced from 2½ cents to 3½ cents a pound. The Southern Pacific Railroad Company is said to be preparing to ask for a rehearing before the United States Supreme Court in the suit in which the right of the State of California to tax the franchises of the Southern Pacific and Central Pacific roads was last week affirmed. The effect of the decision was to compel those two roads to pay to the State in taxes for the year 1887 the sum of $750,000. A Sacramento cattle dealer named John Sparks shipped a number of cattle to the East, and in some way they came in contact with a band of other cattle that were diseased. Under the United States law Sparks' cattle were killed when they reached Omaha, although there was nothing wrong with them whatever. Gov.

When she slipped from the cradle and dipped her virgin keel in the waters of the Delaware, Uncle Sam's new navy received the most powerful fighting ship afloat. The Federal, State and municipal governments were represented by high dignitaries. Miss Mary Lord Drake, daughter of the Governor of Iowa, named the big battleship. The bottle she broke on its great iron prow contained champagne, and not water from either the Des Moines or the Schuylkill rivers, which some Hawkeye State prohibitionists wanted used. When she christened the ship her father stood beside her and near at hand were members of his staff and a party of other distinguished Iowans. Secretary of the Navy Herbert was there, with prominent attaches of his office, chiefs of different naval bureaus in Washington. Vice-President Stevenson, Cabinet officers, House and Senate Committees on Naval Affairs were present. Governor Hastings represented Pennsylvania and Mayor Warwick, Philadelphia. A mighty horde of citizens saw the launching. Within the last two weeks two attempts have been made to kidnap the four-year-old granddaughter of Mme. Modjeska, the actress, in Chicago. The first attempt was made while the nurse girl had the child out for a walk. A man seized the child and started to run. The nurse girl followed for several blocks, screaming before she succeeded in recovering her charge. That night Ralph Modjeska, the father, received an anonymous letter warning him to leave the city under penalty of losing his child. The second attempt to steal the child was made a few days ago. Since then the father has received numerous threatening letters, and has been taking active steps to ascertain their source. He says he cannot account for the attempts to steal his child and drive him out of the city. Last Monday night the conspiracy took a new and alarming turn, when an unknown man called at the Modjeska flat and threw the contents of a bottle of carbolic acid in the face of the nurse girl, who was terribly burned and disfigured. THE WRIGHT LAW. IS NOW REPORTED THAT THE CONSTITUTIONALITY OF THE ACT WILL BE SUSTAINED BY THE SUPREME COURT. SAN FRANCISCO, March 27.—The Chronicle's Washington special says it is expected that the Supreme Court will be ready to and down its decision in the California irrigation cases on Monday. It is known that our careful and unusually extended deliberation of the nature of the decision has been determined upon, but, owing to the press of other decisions, the full formalities may not have been performed in time for Monday, which would throw the decision over another week. The decision will be, it is understood, something of a surprise to those who have followed the case, as most of those interested have felt that it would be adverse to the constitutionality of the Wright act. This union has been held largely owing to circumstances attending Judge Ross's decision in the Fallbrook case. This case and theodore case are those now to be decided by the Supreme Court of California. In theodore case the California Supreme Court included in favor of the constitutionality of the Wright act. The Fallbrook case, however, was tried before Judge Ross of the United States Circuit Court for the Southern district of California, and the decision was against the constitutionality of the act. Judge Ross is known as an ardent advocate of irrigation on general principles, and part from the duties of his official position, he has full sympathy with the ends which have been sought through the Wright act. Before handing down his decision Judge Ross conferred with Associate Justice Field of the Supreme Court, who was at that time sitting in California, and it is understood that they concurred in finding the Wright unconstitutional. Justice Field had in mind at the time the details of the Modesto case, which had appeared from the California courts to Supreme Court, and had been tried before the latter court five months previous to the time of their conference, and is still pending for a decision, which is expected on Sunday. It has been argued that Justice Field, then knowing what the decision in Modesto case would be, made known his wife upon the lines of that decision to Judge Ross, who found it concurrent with own opinion. Judge Ross has never had decision of his own reversed by the Supreme Court, and therefore, experience has justified the prophets in saying that his adjective decision in the Fallbrook case would confirmed. There is now good reason to believe, however, that Judge Ross's decision will be redefined and that the Wright act will be deemed constitutional. The belief is not necessarily contrary to the inference to be drawn from the facts above stated.

The stock was placed in charge of Joseph McDonald, a brother-in-law of Canty, as receiver, and the sale was advertised to take place at the Can'ty ranch on Monday.

A prediction was recently made that a cataclysm would occur in South America on March 29, 1896, and it created fears of destruction of the world on that date not only among ignorant people, but among those of more intelligence. A serious, and in some degree, a ridiculous panic was the result. It was believed by those affected by the prediction that Valparaiso and its suburbs would be engulfed by a tidal wave, as were many towns in the Straits settlements in the unparalleled eruption of Krakeloa tidal waves which followed some years ago. It was painful to witness the effect of the report. As the omnious day approached families left for inland points far distant from the sea, while others fled to the mountains, where they took shelter in tents. Postmaster Lloyd V. Nanscawen of Visalia was acquitted in the United States District Court in Los Angeles on Thursday lastofthe charge of embezzling $1,113 67 from the Government. His defense was insanity. The defendant sat in court with one arm over the back of his chair and his eyes closed. When a witness said that he was a great prevaricator ever since his recent illness, he opened his eyes, frowned and closed them again. Witnesses testified as to his mental affliction. One symptom given was that when people called at his store, to pay a bill he would tell them to come some other time. He was promptly acquitted. Nanscawen will have to stand trial on the second charge of appropriating money from the sale of postage stamps. At least 400 of the 2,000 Italian immigrants who were landed on Ellis Island in New York harbor last week will be deported, as they have not the means to subsist upon for thirty days. The law requires each immigrant to have at least $30, or to have some relative in America before he is admitted. The large migration of Italians is attributable to the Italian invasion of Abysinia, to which most Italian peasants are averse. They do not wish to be drafted into the army, and so to avoid becoming conscripts they emigrate. In many instances they sold their household effects in order to raise passage money.

Montgomery, a farmer living near Stockton, cut the levee of the Mokelumne river, which runs through his land, on Thursday last, and as a result whole country for miles around was speedily under water. Montgomery cut the levee for the purpose of letting water in on his land to irrigate it, but the river rose suddenly in consequence of the rains and the water spread over the land before the cut could be repaired. The loss will be very heavy. Several farms were floated, and the water at last accounts was creeping up to the hop region, which is on more elevated ground. Should it become inundated the loss will amount to much more. At present it is not possible to estimate the loss, for should the water pass off in a few days the damages against Montgomery will be large.

A new phase of the "White Hat" Mo-Carthy and Canty starving horses, developed at Modesto by the arrest of J. M. Canty, owner of the pasture in which the stock was kept. As already reported, Assessor Campbell assessed the animals for $18,000 and levied upon them for taxes. The stock was placed in charge of Joseph McDonald, a brother-in-law of Canty, as receiver, and the sale was advertised to take place at the Canty ranch on Monday. Under Canty's instructions the stock was driven across the San Joaquin river from the Canty ranch and put in a corral at Grayson. The next day Assessor Campbell and the District Attorney went to the scene and caused the arrest of Canty and McDonald for interfering with the process of the law. McDonald was allowed to go on his own recognition, but Canty was placed under bonds for trial. The District Attorney is emphatic in denouncing the criminal act of Canty, and the case will be pushed against him. Mme. Helena Modjeska departed from Chicago on a Santa Fe train last Thursday evening bound for her ranch in Southern California. Count Bozonta was with her and a little band of devoted friends wished her bon voyage as the train left the depot. Mme. Mojeka was glad to have the assurance of her physician that a few months' sojourn beneath the balmy skies of the Golden State would restore her to health. That meant much to the distinguished actress, for she has not renounced the stage. But it was with feelings of regret that when she left she could not have remained over until Sunday. On that day her grandson was to have been baptized and when the proposition was made to Mme. Calve and M. DeReszke, the noted singers, that they should act as responders at the baptism ceremonies, they immediately accepted. Under these circumstances it is not hard to understand why she departed for California with mingled feelings of joy and regret. Any grandmother would be rejoiced to know that her grandson was to have such a distinguished godmother as Emma Calve, or a godfather of such wide renown as Jean DeReszke. But as all arrangements had been made for her departure there was no alternative left for Mme. Modjeska; she could not delay her departure until Sunday, and that was the one day on which the services of Calve and DeReszke were available. J. F. Gilmore, agent of the syndicate of English capitalists who have been negotiating for the Chino ranch in Southern California, and G. Wilding, a prominent chartered accountant of London, have arrived in San Francisco from the southern part of the State, where they have been inspecting the property. Negotiations for the sale have now about reached a satisfactory conclusion. Mr. Gilmore will make arrangements the principal causes of complaint that is now being made by a very important industry of a great State and the present case would fairly come before such a commission as is proposed. Lower freight rates and a measure of protection by tariff to domestic fruit would revive this now languishing branch of horticulture. The facts stated above are emphasized by the report of United States Consul Seymour of Palermo, that during the year 1894 there were exported from that port eight times as many lemons and oranges to the United States as the entire exportation to all other foreign countries during the same period. California and Florida suffer from this competition of fruit raised on the shores of the Mediterranean, and the prosperity of two great States of the Union disastrously affected to the benefit of the people of another race, country and hemisphere." A decision has been handed down by the Supreme Court, in the case of Annie L. Sloane vs. the Southern California Railway Company. The case was one brought by Annie L. Sloane to recover damages from indignity suffered by her at the hands of a conductor. The plaintiff Sloane purchased a ticket April 8, 1894, from the agent of the defendant at North Pomona, for passage from that place to San Diego, and on the same day took passage upon the regular passenger train. Before reaching San Bernardino, the conductor took up her ticket without giving her any check, or other evidence of her right to be carried to San Diego, and on arriving at San Bernardino, she was required to change cars. After entering the train of cars, her ticket was demanded by the conductor, and after her explanation that she had given her ticket to the conductor on the other train, she was informed that she must either pay her fare or leave the train. She had no money with her, and at East Riverside left the car, and started to walk back to Colton, a distance of three miles, where she spent the night at her sister-in-law's home. The next day she borrowed money and resumed her passage to San Diego. Action was then brought to recover damages sustained by reason of the detention she had suffered. The case was tried by a jury, which gave a verdict in her favor for the sum of $1,400. From this judgment and an order denying a new trial, the railway company appealed. The Supreme Court, after an exhaustive review of the facts in the case, decides that the plaintiff is entitled to damages, but not in such an amount as was awarded by the jury. The judgment and order of the lower court are reversed unless the plaintiff within thirty days after the filing of the remittitur in the Supreme Court, files with the clerk and gives to the defendant a stipulation remitting from the judgment the sum of $1,000. If such a stipulation is filed the Superior Court is directed to amend the judgment in conformity, and thereupon the judgment and order shall stand affirmed.
