The Randolph Marketing Co. expects to be busy all next week, said Manager Robert Strain. It has 200 carloads of tomatoes to ship, besides considerable lettuce, cauliflower, etc. The removal of all embargoes from the So. Pac. lines indicates that congestion of fruit shipments is nearly ended. The company reserves the right, however, to route shipments as conditions require. The market continues strong on best stock Valencia oranges, but poorer grades are generally dull and lower. F. o. b. quotations are on a basis of $8 to $9 per box, according to sizes and district. There is no quotable cash market. Conservative estimates show not over 32,000 cars of Valencias remaining in shipment the balance of the season. There has been an exceptional demand for grapefruit from northwestern and coast markets. As high as $7 to $7.50 per box f. o. b. has been realized. This is a record price for grapefruit. There are no new developments appertaining to the new crop of oranges now maturing. Another 30 days will enable growers to arrive at estimates on the probable size of the crop that will be of value.

Preparations have been made to sweat this early fruit to bring out the color as soon as the eight to 1 maturity test can be passed.

The fruit is generally green and unattractive. Averages ranged mostly around $3.90 per box. The demand for good stock lemons exceeds the supply. While the hot weather has not continued for any length of time it has been sufficient to clean up supplies on hand and the trade is hungry for good stock lemons. F. o. b. quotations are on a basis of $6 to $6.50 per box. There are on hand and available for sale within the next 30 days approximately 20,000 boxes of foreign lemons. NASHVILLE, N.

CHICAGO, Sept. 2. — Uncle Sam moved relentlessly all over America today sternly to carry into force the mandates of yesterday's sweeping blanket injunction to end the railroad strike. Jail yawned for every man or woman who in any way attempted to interfere with the working of the railroads or aid the striking shopmen. The threat was made from government sources that the full-power of the army would be employed to keep the roads running and to prevent the strikers from carrying out their purpose of impeding transportation—the only weapon in their power to help them win their cause. A number of flights were reported and several deaths and bloodshed resulted from clashes between strikers and non-union men today. Orders went forth from Washington to all federal district attorneys of the country to maintain a sharp lookout for any and all violations of the injunction and to act promptly and vigorously wherever such violations were found. United States marshals, armed with the drastic restraining order issued by Federal Judge James H. Wilkerson at the request of Attorney General Harry M. Daugherty, swarmed from the federal building here. The first sensation of the day came when deputy marshals reported that B. M. Jewell, president of the railway department of the American Federation of Labor could not be located. He was reported to have taken a train east.
