This is a condition that Is coming' to an end. bringing with It the probability i oi a oeuer can lor appres. A wpscial advice from California this morning slated that a large per 'cent of the orange crop had been caught by the recent he'ivy frosts throughout the northern district. This means that that portion of the orange growth caught by the cold nap wilj have to be moved quickly in order to save it and after this surplus Is cleaned up the market will stiffen in consequence of the smal ler offerings.
