Ferdinand de Lesseps is dead. The
I great civil engineer was born at Ver
sailles rov. j, icoo, anu consequently
was over 69 years old. His fame is that
of the present .generation and was ob
tained mostly through association with
the building of the Suez canal, -winch
was completed in 1869. During the ex
pedition of 1SS3 M. de Lesseps violently
opposed the policy of Great Britain in
Egypt. He was awarded the Paris So
ciete de Geographie prize of 10,000
francs in 1870; received the Cross of the
Legion of Honor. in 1869; the Italian
cross of the Order of St. Maurice the
same year; the broad ribbon of the
Prussian Order of the Lion and the Sun
in 1SS3. Bis later years have been
clouded by the scandals connected with
the Panama canal, with which project
he was associated. He was probably an
uuconscious instrument in the hands of
scheming and designing men to further
their interest, but necessarily has had
to share in the odium attached to the
once financial operations of these men.
A New York dis paten says: tA
nia is making a valuable show in the
Eastern food market of this winter, and
of a variety, too, that will be welcome
ia the reduced condition of some fruits
that have not turned out well. The ac
companying figures indicate the heavy
supplies of the new crop of dried fruits
and other things which have come from
California thus far since the season
opened two months ago: The receipts
of raisins at New iork for the period
mentioned were 264.720 boxes and bags,
chiefly boxes. 116.000 of which went
through t the New England, states.
The totals of dried fruits, including
peaches, apricots and prunes, were 154,
844 boxes and bags, 46.550 of which
were shipped direct to New England.
Besides these articles there have been
j received nearly 20.000 bales of hops and
41,500 barrels of wine. The shipments
are by no means over, as much will be
added to the Eastern stock during the
early winter, but there is enough to
carry the trade well along into the cold
weather.
